The state of California currently has 28 active clinical trials seeking participants for Migraine research studies. These trials are conducted in various cities, including Los Angeles, San Francisco, San Diego and Sacramento.
A Study of Galcanezumab (LY2951742) in Participants 12 to 17 Years of Age With Chronic Migraine
Recruiting
The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of galcanezumab for the preventive treatment of chronic migraine in participants 12 to 17 years of age. The primary objective is to demonstrate the superiority of galcanezumab versus placebo in the reduction of monthly migraine headache days across the 3-month double-blind treatment period.

A Study of Oral Atogepant Tablets to Assess Adverse Events and Change in Disease Activity To Prevent Migraine in Participants Aged 12 to 17 Years
Recruiting
Migraine is a disease that most often causes moderate to severe headache on one side of the head. A migraine attack is a headache that may be accompanied by throbbing, nausea, vomiting, sensitivity to light and sound, or other symptoms. The goals of the study are to evaluate adverse events and how well treatment of atogepant works compared to placebo (looks like the study treatment but contains no medicine) in preventing chronic migraine in participants between 12 and 17 years of age. Atogepant... Read More

Analysis of Headache Chronification With Imaging, Deep Phenotyping, and Proteomics
Recruiting
Study is aimed at determining why some patients with episodic headache proceed to chronic daily or near daily headaches. The Investigators seek to discover differences in brain anatomy and function, composition of cerebrospinal fluid, blood products, genetics, and patient phenotypes that might help explain this process.

A 12-Month Study of Lasmiditan (LY573144) Treatment in Children Aged 6 to 17 With Migraine
Recruiting
The reason for this 12-month, open-label study is to see if the study drug lasmiditan is safe and effective for the intermittent acute treatment of migraine in children aged 6 to 17. The study will last about 12 months and may include up to 7 visits.

A Study of Galcanezumab (LY2951742) in Participants 6 to 17 Years of Age With Episodic Migraine
Recruiting
The main purpose of this study is to evaulate the efficacy and safety of galcanezumab in participants 6 to 17 years of age for the preventive treatment of episodic migraine. The primary objective is to demonstrate the superiority of galcanezumab versus placebo in the reduction of monthly migraine headache days across the 3-month double-blind treatment period.

Efficacy and Safety of Erenumab in Pediatric Participants With Episodic Migraine
Recruiting
This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of erenumab in migraine prevention in children (6 to \<12 years) and adolescents (12 to \<18 years) with episodic migraine. The study hypothesis is that in pediatric participants with episodic migraine, the combined erenumab dose group has a greater reduction from baseline to week 9 through week 12 (month 3) in monthly migraine days (MMDs) when compared with placebo in the double-blind treatment phase (DBTP).

Evaluation of a Wearable Device for Acute Treatment of Migraines
Recruiting
The goal of this clinical trial is to determine the efficacy of a new, improved neuromodulation device that can be worn on the head and neck to relieve migraine pain. To measure efficacy, investigators will compare how measured outcomes resulting from active stimulation with this device compare to those of sham treatment.

A Study to Assess the Adverse Events and Change in Disease Activity of Oral Atogepant Tablets in Pediatric Participants (6-17 Years of Age) With Episodic Migraine
Recruiting
A migraine is a moderate to severe headache on one side of the head. A migraine attack is a headache that may be accompanied by throbbing, nausea, vomiting, sensitivity to light and sound, or other symptoms. A number of treatments are available for adults with migraine but there are limited approved treatments available for pediatric participants. The main goal of the study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy (how well treatment works) of a low-dose and high-dose of atogepant in pediatric par... Read More

Responding With Evidence and Access for Childhood Headaches
Recruiting
This comparative effectiveness study will clarify current first-line preventive treatment approaches for use by neurologists, psychologists, and primary care providers in the context of real world care, and will demonstrate the feasibility of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) via telehealth for youth with migraine. The focus is on applying evidence-based care and enhancing access to it. CBT via telehealth while taking a clinically-prescribed, pill-based prevention therapy (amitriptyline) will b... Read More

Emgality for Migraine in Breastmilk
Recruiting
The goal of this project is to evaluate galcanezumab transfer into maternal breastmilk, and to evaluate infant (growth, development, constipation, colic, infections) and maternal (headache) outcomes for dyads in which the mother was treated with galcanezumab and to compare outcomes for infants who were or were not breastfed after maternal treatment. In this prospective observational study, the study team proposes to prospectively collect serial milk samples from 30 adult women who are treated w... Read More
