Hypersensitivity to Amylin in Post-Traumatic Headache

Официальное название

Hypersensitivity to Amylin in Post-Traumatic Headache: A Randomized Clinical Trial

Обзор

Pramlintide is a peptide analogue of human amylin which is a vasoactive substance involved in the pathogenesis of headache. This study investigates whether pramlintide induces migraine-like headache in people with persistent post-traumatic headache (PTH) attributed to mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI).

Подробное описание

Amylin is a vasodilator released from nerve fibers within the trigeminovascular system, which is considered a key anatomical and physiological substrate in the pathogenesis of migraine and persistent post-traumatic headache (PTH). Persistent PTH attributed to mild traumatic brain injury frequently presents with migraine attacks, suggesting shared underlying mechanisms with migraine. This study aims to determine whether intravenous infusion of pramlintide, an analogue of amylin, can induce migraine-like headache in individuals with persistent post-traumatic headache. To test this hypothesis, we will conduct a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, two-way crossover study.

Вмешательства

• Препарат Amylin
  The participants will receive continuous intravenous infusion of 6 μg/min of pramlintide (amylin) over 20 minutes.
• Препарат Placebo
  The participants will receive continuous intravenous infusion of 20 mL of placebo (isotonic saline) over 20 minutes.

Критерии участия

Критерии включения

• Age 18 to 65 years of age upon entry into screening
• History of persistent headache attributed to mild traumatic injury to the head for ≥ 12 months and in accordance with the International Classification of Headache Disorders, 3rd Edition (ICHD-3)
• ≥ 4 monthly headache days on average across the 3 months prior to screening
• Provision of informed consent prior to initiation of any study-specific activities/procedures

Критерии исключения

• > 1 mild traumatic injury to the head
• History of any primary or secondary headache disorder prior to mild traumatic injury to the head (except for infrequent episodic tension-type headache)
• History of moderate or severe injury to the head
• History of whiplash injury
• History of craniotomy
• History or evidence of any other clinically significant disorder, condition or disease (except for those outlined above) than, in the opinion of the site investigator, would pose a risk to subject safety or interfere with study evaluation, procedures or completion
• The subject is at risk of self-harm or harm to others as evidenced by past suicidal behavior
• Female subjects of childbearing potential with a positive pregnancy test during any study visit
• Cardiovascular disease of any kind, including cerebrovascular diseases
• Hypertension (systolic blood pressure of ≥150 mmHg and/or diastolic blood pressure of ≥100 mmHg) prior to the start of infusion on the experimental day
• Hypotension (systolic blood pressure of ≤90 mmHg and/or diastolic blood pressure of ≤50 mmHg)
• Initiation, discontinuation, or change of dosing of prophylactic medications within 2 months prior to study inclusion
• Intake of acute medications (e.g. analgesics, triptans) within 48 hours of infusion start
• Baseline headache intensity of >3 on an 11-point numeric rating scale (0 being no headache, 10 being the worst imaginable headache)
• Baseline migraine-like headache or self-reported baseline headache that mimics the subjects' usual migraine-like headache
