About this study

Official title: Undersökning av ny Behandlingsmetod Vid migränanfall (Evaluation of a New Treatment for Migraine Attacks)

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of a novel therapy for treatment of migraine, pain reduction and relief of associated symptoms during ongoing migraine attacks, and presence of a preventive effect two months post treatment. Another purpose is to investigate if and how this treatment affects manifestations of the autonomic nervous system activity.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Change from baseline in pain intensity according to VAS-scales (0-10)

    Documentation of pain intensity prior to treatment initiation (baseline value), every 5 minutes during treatment and post treatment.

    Measured: Estimation 40 minutes

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. RR (Heart rate)-interval

    ECG will be obtained during treatment

    Measured: Estimation 40 minutes

  2. Change from baseline in sympathetic nervous system activity

    Plethysmographic measurements will be obtained during treatment (finger clamp on finger).

    Measured: Estimation 40 minutes

  3. Blood pressure

    Will be obtained prior to treatment initiation and post treatment

    Measured: Estimation 40 minutes

  4. Change from baseline in attack frequency based on completed patient diaries

    Measured: 3 to 4 months

  5. Change from baseline in attack intensity based on completed patient diaries

    Measured: 3 to 4 months

  6. Change from baseline in attack duration based on completed patient diaries

    Measured: 3 to 4 months

  7. Change from baseline in medicine consumption based on completed patient diaries

    Measured: 3 to 4 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing In-house prototype invented by Jan-Erik Juto in people with Migraine, run by Karolinska University Hospital at 1 site in Sweden.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 7 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Jun 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Sweden. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early (reason given: Too slow recruitment rate. The study has been terminated and will be re-started with an improved and more suitable study design.). Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change from baseline in pain intensity according to VAS-scales (0-10) (time frame: Estimation 40 minutes). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 18 Jun 2013.
