An observational study of Menstrual Migraine, run by University Hospital, Clermont-Ferrand at 1 site in France.

Trial summary

An increase in intracranial pressure (ICP) during migraine attacks is possible and could contribute to pain initiation and maintenance. From now on, it was not possible to measure ICP in a non-invasive way. The development of a new tool allows non-invasive self-measures of ICP variations. Read more about this study

Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 50 years
  • Women only
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult

Study population: Womens presenting with regular menstrual migraine treated with triptans will be included in the study. Self-measure of ICP will be performed outside and during menstrual migraine attacks. The potential variations will be compared to the measures done on matched healthy women outside and during menses.

Who may be able to join

  • 18 to 50 non menopausal women
  • Menstrual migraine
  • Using a triptan as usual treatment to relieve attacks
  • Usual triptan efficacy although recurrence is possible

Who cannot join

  • Disease of the ear
  • Intracranial hypertension
  • Chronic daily headache
  • Use of topiramate or acetazolamide
  • Triptans used more than 10 days/month
  • Analgesic drug used more than 15 days/month

  • Uncontrolled high blood pressure
  • BMI >30

About this study

Official title: Measure of Intracranial Pressure Variations During Migraine Attacks

An increase in intracranial pressure (ICP) during migraine attacks is possible and could contribute to pain initiation and maintenance. From now on, it was not possible to measure ICP in a non-invasive way. The development of a new tool allows non-invasive self-measures of ICP variations. Thus, it is possible for the first time to look for such ICP variations during migraine attacks and to conclude if this mechanism is implied in the pathophysiology of migraine.

What is being measured

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

  1. Intracranial pressure variations

    Measured during menstrual migraine attacks compared to ICP in non-migraine days and in matched healthy women

    Measured: during menstrual migraine attacks

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Relationships between ICP variations and clinical parameters

    Age, BMI, pain intensity, pulsating pain, allodynia, nausea, photophobia, phonophobia, dizziness, tinnitus

    Measured: during menstrual migraine attacks

  2. Relationships between ICP variations and pain relief

    Measured: during menstrual migraine attacks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Menstrual Migraine, run by University Hospital, Clermont-Ferrand at 1 site in France.

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 4 inclusion and 9 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 May 2017. 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 France. 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. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Patrick LACARIN (04 73 75 11 95, placarin@chu-clermontferrand.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Intracranial pressure variations (time frame: during menstrual migraine attacks). 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 15 May 2017.
