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 55 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult

Who may be able to join

  • Patients aged 18 to 55 years
  • Admitted to the Neuro-Vascular Intensive Care Unit for Acute Focused Neurological Symptoms and MRI
  • less than 4 hours 30 minutes after onset of symptoms if symptoms persist during admission
  • less than two hours after the disappearance of symptoms if the patient arrives asymptomatic
  • Affiliated to a social protection scheme.
  • Having given their informed consent

Who cannot join

  • Patients with neurological signs pointing to vertebrobasilar localization (vertigo, diplopia) or with a disorder of consciousness
  • Presence of recent explanatory abnormalities on the MRI to make a diagnosis compatible with the initial neurological symptomatology (visible stroke in diffusion, cerebral hemorrhage, tumor, arteriovenous malformations).
  • Potential strong cause of stroke known or discovered at the arrival of the patient, in particular stenosis of a cervical or intracranial artery upstream of the cerebral zone may correspond to the symptoms and emboligenic heart disease type atrial fibrillation.

About this study

investigators hypothesize that T2 * vein abnormalities are frequent and are specific to the migraine aura.

Read the detailed description

The diagnosis of migraine aura is now based solely on clinical criteria and the assertion of the diagnosis on these clinical criteria alone proves difficult in the acute phase. Added to this difficulty, the symptomatology of a migraine aura can sometimes be similar to that of a stroke, so a diagnosis can be poorly established, resulting in poor patient care. The possibility of making the positive diagnosis of migraine aura on a routine MRI sequence, T2 *, would be an important advance for the management of these patients

What is being measured

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

  1. frequency of the presence of visible brain vein abnormalities

    visible brain vein abnormalities on T2 * sequences MRI ,

    Measured: Day 0

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. perfusion parameters

    in MRI , Overall visual assessment: presence or absence of hypoperfusion (presence or not in each anterior, middle and posterior territory) each lobe: Frontal, Temporal, Parietal, Occipital)

    Measured: Day 0

  2. asymmetry of visualization of the 3 intracranial arteries in MRI

    in MRI TOF

    Measured: Day 0

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing MRI and telephone consultation in people with Migraine Aura, run by University Hospital, Toulouse 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 6 inclusion and 5 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Feb 2021. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

frequency of the presence of visible brain vein abnormalities (time frame: Day 0). 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 3 Feb 2021.
