Migraine clinical trials, in English

Migraine trials split into prevention (fewer monthly days) versus acute treatment (stopping an attack). CGRP antibodies, gepants, devices, and behavioral programs all appear on the registry. Monthly migraine-day counts are typical inclusion numbers — they come from the protocol, not from us. Sourced from ClinicalTrials.gov. Not a recommendation to join any study.

How to read this list

Each headline is a rewrite of registry fields (phase, intervention, condition). Open the NCT link before you call a site. Eligibility is decided by the study team, not by this page. See how to find a trial and eligibility explained.

Not a traditional drug phase: Transcranial Direct Current Therapy (tDCS) for COVID-19

This study aims to verify the how well it works/effectiveness of treatment with transcranial direct current stimulation (TDCS) in patients with Long Covid who experience headaches, migraines, and chronic pain, such as arthralgia and myalgia, as well as sleep problems. Transcranial direct current stimulation is used in the field of Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation, with results that have proven to be effective for treating patients suffering from symptoms like migraines, headaches, chronic pain, fibromyalgia, or chronic neuropathic pain and insomnia.

Not a traditional drug phase: testing Nitroglycerin 0.3 MG for Migraine

This study aimed to investigate the role of the glymphatic system in the initiation of migraine attacks, using non-invasive magnetic resonance imaging techniques and a validated model of migraine induction by nitroglycerin administration. Secondarily, the relationship between the function of the glymphatic system during nitroglycerin-induced migraine attacks and sleep architecture and plasma levels of migraine-involved neuropeptides will be investigated.

Not a traditional drug phase: Dietary training for Migraine

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether a low-glutamate diet can improve migraine symptoms in adults with migraine and to explore possible biological changes associated with dietary improvement. The study focuses on whether reducing dietary glutamate intake may influence processes involved in migraine, such as brain excitation, inflammation, and oxidative stress.

Early phase 1: Virtual Reality for Persistent Postural Perceptual Dizziness

Both persistent postural-perceptual dizziness (PPPD) and vestibular migraine (VM) are common diagnoses in patients presenting to physicians for evaluation of vestibular symptoms such as dizziness and vertigo. Although they are most often described in the adult population, they are also common in children and adolescents with dizziness.

Not a traditional drug phase: SPM Precursor-Enriched Marine Lipid Supplement for Temporomandibular Disorder (TMD)

The ADAPT study is a single-site, Phase 2b, randomly assigned, quadruple-masked, compared with a dummy treatment trial evaluating an omega-3 dietary supplement enriched with specialized pro-resolving mediator (SPM) precursors in adults with chronic temporomandibular disorder (TMD) pain. The trial will enroll 100 adults aged 18 years or older with examiner-confirmed TMD myalgia or arthralgia will be enrolled at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Adams School of Dentistry.

Not a traditional drug phase: BREATHE with Headache (BREATHE-HA) for Migraine

The goal of this study (supported by and included in the NIH HEAL Initiative: https://heal.nih.gov/) is to learn if a fully virtual study comparing two telehealth group interventions for adolescents with migraine is feasible and acceptable: 1. Telehealth group mindfulness-based intervention 2.

Phase 4: testing Rimegepant for Acute Treatment of Migraine

Acute treatments for migraine may not provide sufficient pain relief after an initial dose, and a second dose of a given medication may be needed to fully abort an attack. International Headache Society (IHS) global practice recommendations for the Acute Treatment of Migraine suggest a second dose of the same medication within the recommended dose limit in people with headache relapse after successful initial treatment of a migraine attack.

Phase 2: ASY202 for Migraine

This study is testing an investigational inhaled migraine medication to see how well it works, how safe it is, and how well people tolerate it. Adults with migraine will receive both the study medication (ASY202) and a dummy treatment (placebo) (inactive treatment) at different times during the study.

FAQ: Migraine trials

How do I find recruiting Migraine clinical trials?

This hub lists 34 recruiting Migraine studies from a ClinicalTrials.gov snapshot, rewritten in plain English. Each card links to its NCT record. You can also search the official registry for “migraine” at https://clinicaltrials.gov/search?cond=migraine.

What does a Migraine trial page on PlainTrials include?

A phase explainer, a plain-English summary grounded in the brief summary, inclusion/exclusion extracted from the public eligibility block, sponsor name, and any central contact the sponsor published. It is not a match to a trial.

Where are Migraine studies located in this snapshot?

Sites that appear on these records include Houston, Texas; Austin, Texas; Miami, Florida; New York, New York; Dallas, Texas. A city on a record is not a guarantee that the site is taking new patients this week — call the NCT contact.

Can PlainTrials tell me if I qualify for a Migraine study?

No. Eligibility is decided by the study team using the protocol, labs, and consent. Our “who it is for” list is a readable extract of public inclusion text only.
