NCT00382993
This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, crossover, two-attack, out-patient, early-intervention evaluation of subjects who have migraine with or without aura and who discontinued use of short acting triptan(s) within the past year due to non-response or intolerance. Subjects will treat 2 separate migraine attacks during the mild phase of each attack; one attack will be treated with one tablet of the Combination Product (sumatriptan succinate and naproxen sodium) and the other attack with one tablet of placebo (crossover design). \[Study 2 of 2\]

NCT02984826
Background: Tension Type Headache (TTH) is highly frequent and is of great socio-economic importance. Andersen et al. 2008 has shown that maximal muscle strength is reduced in women with trapezius myalgia. It is shown that specific strength training leads to prolonged pain relief. Aim:Test: To investigate the impact of TTH on shoulder, and neck muscle strength in patients with TTH compared to healthy controls. Intervention: To investigate the effect of specific strength training on patients with TTH compared with control group, receiving training in ergonomics. Method: Test part. 60 tension headache patients, 30 healthy. Muscle testing of neck and shoulder. Testing conducted by blinded research assistant. Intervention group: 60 patients with tension headache randomly assigned to the intervention group or control group. Intervention with specific strength training program runs for 10 weeks. The control group will be trained in ergonomics. 3 months follow up.
NCT02462395
Cluster headache is a primary headache that chiefly affects young men, and is less common than migraine. This disease can have devastating consequences due to the pain intensity (it is also called "suicide headache"), to the side effects of the drug preventive therapies, and to the resistance of some subtypes of the headache to all existing medications. Recent studies suggest that cluster headache could be associated with a decrease of the activity of frontal areas involved in descending pain control, in particular the subgenual anterior cingulate cortex. The aim of this pilot study is to activate these areas with a non-invasive neurostimulation technique, called transcranial direct current stimulation, as a preventive treatment for cluster headache sufferers.
NCT02969642
This study evaluates the treatment of migraine pain using low energy laser light to quench migraine signals issuing from the sphenopalatine ganglion (SPG).
NCT02866409
This study has been designed to assess the efficacy of dexmedetomidine as an adjuvant to local anaesthetic agent bupivacaine in scalp nerve block and scalp infiltration to control post craniotomy pain.A third group where patients were administered bupivacaine only infiltration has also been created.
NCT02037425
To obtain a patient specific understanding of response to treatment with onabotulinumtoxinA by collecting and correlating pre and post treatment subject specific history, clinical outcomes, and histological changes.
NCT00663585
Participants completing training in intensive meditation and continuing frequent practice for one year would experience reduced frequency, duration and severity of headaches along with improved awareness of the triggers of their symptoms, improved quality of life and mental health, improved heart rate variability, and reduced inflammation.
NCT02838537
This study will be conducted as a retrospective study of exposed and unexposed cohort of the French population included all beneficiaries aged 65 and older. Exposed patients will be matched to non exposed controls according age, gender and area of residence (ratio 1/4). Two exposed arms and two non exposed control arms will be planned. Triptan arm will be user of triptan defined as at least one recorded dispensing of any drug during the follow up, with no recorded of any of these drugs during the previous 6 months ("new or incident users"). Ergot arm will be user of ergot derivative defined as at least one recorded dispensing of any drug during the follow up, with no recorded of any of these drugs during the previous 6 months ("new or incident users"). This study involved data from the French National Health Insurance Information System (Système National d"Information Inter-Régimes de l"Assurance Maladie ; SNIIRAM) linked with the French hospital discharge database (Programme de Médicalisation des Systèmes d"Informations, PMSI). * The SNIIRAM is a vast national medico-administrative database representing the most part of the French population, allowing to identify and to describe precisely all medication dispensations (name of drug, date of dispensing and quantity) including triptans and other reimbursed medications. * The PMSI provides medical information about all patients admitted to hospital in France, including discharge diagnoses encoded according ICD-10, medical procedures and French diagnosis-related groups The research proposed is expected to provide an update and nationally-consolidated estimation of the cardiovascular risk is associated to triptans use in elderly population.
NCT02784847
A pilot trial of triheptanoin, a natural compound able to promote anaplerotic mitochondrial metabolism, for the preventative treatment of migraine.
NCT02147561
This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of BOTOX® treatment in Korean adults with chronic migraine.
NCT02259075
Chronic migraine is in many cases a most disabling condition. Chronic migraine is defined as headaches for at least 15 days per month, of which 8 days have typical migraine features. In many cases, oral drug treatment has little effect. The parasympathetic nervous system acting through the sphenopalatine ganglion may be involved in several primary headaches, including migraine, by facilitating release of inflammatory substances in cerebral vessels. Botulinum toxin type A (BTA) inhibits excretion of acetylcholine resulting in blocking of nerve signals in the sphenopalatine ganglion. The purpose of the present study is to evaluate a new technique with injection of BTA using an minimal invasive image guided procedure, for blocking of the sphenopalatine ganglion. The goal is to relieve the migraine symptoms and develop an alternate treatment for cases where oral drug treatments fail. The main objective of the project is to determine the safety of this method of BTA injection in the area of the sphenopalatine ganglion by detecting adverse events. Secondary objectives are to measure changes in headache attack parameters with this novel method.
NCT01211145
The purpose of this study is to investigate if Zomig® Nasal Spray will help children (age 12-17 years) with migraine headaches feel better. This will be done by comparing 3 different doses of Zomig Nasal Spray with placebo nasal spray (inactive treatment).
NCT01839149

NCT02170259
Introduction. Tension-type headache is a highly prevalent disorder with a significant socio-economic impact, affecting psychological aspects. This study aims to assess aspects pertaining to anxiety, depression, headache frequency and pain intensity. Subjects and methods. A clinical trial was conducted on 84 participants suffering from tension-type headache, divided into 4 groups, the mean age being 39.76 years (SD 11.38). The first group received suboccipital soft tissue treatment (ST); the second group was treated with articulatory technique (AT); the third group was applied a combination of both techniques (ST and AT) and a forth group which served as control group. Treatment sessions were administered during four weeks, with a post-treatment assessment, and follow-up after one month. The investigators conducted Repeated measures Analysis of Covariance (RM-MANCOVA) to evaluate the effect of treatment on between and within-subject conditions and their interaction on reported depression, anxiety, and headache pain frequency and intensity.
NCT02742272
The purpose of this study is to develop a clinical decision rule for patients seen in the pediatric emergency department for possible intracranial pathology. This a prospective study evaluating patients presenting with headache and migraine. The study is observational and does not impact patient care.
NCT02081482
The occipital nerve stimulation (ONS) is used to treat patients with refractory primary chronic headache but its mechanism of action (MoA) remains unknown. Different hypothesis have been suggested in particular a specific action on cerebral generators involved in different types of primary headaches or a non specific action on pain modulatory network. The aim of this study, using the chronic cluster headache as a model, is to determine the changes in cerebral metabolism induced by ONS to precise its MoA in the treatment of primary chronic headache.
NCT01865604
