NCT00957996
This is a Phase 3, open-label, randomized study of the antiviral activity, safety, and tolerability of intravenous Peramivir in hospitalized subjects with confirmed or suspected influenza infection.
NCT00203294
Subjects are scheduled to undergo a Greater Occipital Nerve Block (GONB) as treatment for your chronic daily headache (CDH). GONB has been used for many years in the treatment of headaches. The nerve block is done by injecting a liquid drug through the skin of the back of the head to the area of the greater occipital nerve. The nerve runs superficially in this area, therefore the drugs are injected just under the skin. The injected drugs block electrical transmission through the nerve, resulting in reduced head pain. There are treatment options for patients receiving a GONB, however, some clinicians use local anesthetics (lidocaine and /or bupivicaine) alone, and some use local anesthetics with local steroid injection. The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether or not there is an observed difference between these two treatment approaches for GONB. We expect to enroll 60 patients into this research study at Thomas Jefferson University only.
NCT00257010
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the long-term safety of almotriptan malate (a migraine headache medication) in the treatment of migraine headaches in adolescents for up to one year.
NCT01855672
The objective of this proof-of-concept study is to generate initial safety and effectiveness data for the neuro-modulation stimulation (NMS) E-Box in patients with chronic migraine in an acute setting. The results of this study will determine if further development of this device in a larger study is warranted.
NCT00293657
To determine whether a single dose of intravenous lornoxicam is superior to intravenous placebo for the acute treatment of moderate or severe headache associated with a single migraine attack in patients with a history of migraine. Two-thirds of patients in this study will receive a single dose of intravenous lornoxicam (8mg or 16 mg) and one-third of patients will receive a single dose of an intravenous placebo.
NCT00690716
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effect of nasal carbon dioxide in the treatment of mild headaches in people who have migraines.
NCT00772031
The purpose of this study is to compare the reduction in the number of severe headache days at six months in people with chronic migraine treated with topiramate and propranolol versus those treated with topiramate and a placebo.
NCT00200109
Background: Medically intractable chronic migraine (CM) is a disabling illness characterized by headache greater than 15 days per month. Method: A multicenter, randomized, blinded, controlled feasibility study was conducted to obtain preliminary safety and efficacy data on occipital nerve stimulation (ONS) in CM. Eligible subjects received an occipital nerve block, and responsers were randomized to adjustable stimulation (AS), preset stimulation (PS) or medical management (MM) groups.
NCT00449540
Assess safety and efficacy of Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) for the treatment of migraine with aura The hypothesis is that TMS treatments delivered to the occipital cortex of the brain can stop or interrupt the spreading cortical brain activity that causes or contributes to the migraine headache. Two TMS treatments at an intensity of \<1 Tesla for \~500 microseconds, approximately 30 seconds apart, may stop the aura and prevent the subsequent headache.
NCT00203242
The purpose of this study is to collect and evaluate information on the use of Depakote Extended Release (ER) and Depacon Intravenous (IV) in patients with cluster headaches. Patients who are currently in a cluster cycle will be treated with 2 consecutive days of IV Depacon followed by oral Depakote ER. Patients will receive a total of 1,000mg of Depacon and 1,000mg of Depakote ER each day. Patients may have a 3rd day of IV Depacon followed by oral Depakote ER if the primary investigator believes it to be beneficial. The patient is then sent home on oral Depakote ER. The dose of Depakote ER can range from 500mg to 2,000mg this dose is to be determined by the primary investigator. The patient will continue the oral Depakote ER until the end of their cluster cycle or for a maximum of 6 weeks, which ever comes first.
NCT00033839
This is a 49-day study to evaluate the effectiveness of Intranasal Civamide (Zucapsaicin) in the treatment of an episodic cluster headache period compared to placebo (medically inactive substance which does not contain any active ingredients).
NCT00573170
Study TRX109011/TRX109013, A Randomized, Double-blind, Double-dummy, Placebo-controlled, Crossover Study to Evaluate the Efficacy of TREXIMET® (Sumatriptan + Naproxen Sodium) versus Butalbital-containing Combination Medications (BCM) for the Acute Treatment of Migraine when administered during the Moderate-Severe Pain Phase of the Migraine (Studies 1 and 2 of 2)
NCT00335803
Chronic daily headache has been classified into several categories. One category is of sudden onset and is called New Daily Persistent Headache (NDPH). Another category of daily headache evolves gradually and is called Transformed Migraine (TM). This research study is being conducted to compare people with these two kinds of daily headache in order to improve our understanding of these conditions.
NCT01146509
The purpose of this extension study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of donepezil hydrochloride after extended use in migraine prophylaxis. Efficacy will continue to be evaluated.
NCT00123201
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of dronabinol MDI for the acute treatment of moderate to severe migraine headache.
NCT00069082
NCT01248468
The main purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of aspirin, acetaminophen and caffeine (AAC) with sumatriptan and placebo in the acute treatment of migraine.
NCT00300924
The purpose of this study is to test an experimental drug combination of two medications currently approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for migraine headache or other pain. These are called rizatriptan given with acetaminophen.
NCT00510419
The purpose of this research study is to evaluate an investigational auto-injector system for delivering sumatriptan under the skin for a single migraine attack. The study could take approximately 5 weeks and will include about 3 office visits to the study doctor, the patient will be contacted every 2 weeks until the patient experiences a migraine and uses the auto-injector. The last visit will be done by a telephone follow-up call.
NCT00086021
The purpose of this study is to determine whether acupuncture can reduce pain in long-term headache sufferers.
