What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.

Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.

Summary

This study tested a wearable armband called Nerivio that uses mild electrical pulses to reduce pain from Botox injections in people with chronic migraine. About 80 participants were planned, but the study was stopped early. The goal was to see if the device could make the injection process less painful.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Nerivio (remote electrical neuromodulation device)
What this could lead to
If it worked, this device could offer a drug-free way to reduce pain during migraine injection procedures.
What could go wrong
The study was terminated early, so we have little data. It was also small (80 people) and only looked at short-term pain relief during injections.

Inclusion Criteria: * Meet the criteria for 1.3 chronic migraine based on ICHD3 criteria. * Currently receiving onabotulinumtoxinA per PREEMPT protocol for the treatment of chronic migraine. * Patient is willing and able to comply with the protocol to the satisfaction of the investigator. * Patient has the capacity to provide written, informed consent for themselves. Exclusion Criteria: * Participants with an active implanted electrical and/or neurostimulator device (e.g., cardiac pacemaker, cochlear implant). * Participants with congestive heart failure (CHF), severe cardiac or cerebrovascular disease. * Participants with uncontrolled epilepsy. * Pregnant, trying to get pregnant or breastfeeding female participants. * Subjects participating in any other interventional clinical study. * Participants with other significant pain, medical or psychological problems that in the opinion of the investigator may confound the study assessments. * Participants who have previous experience with the device. * Patients with cranial deformities, prior cranial surgeries with violation of the calvarium, or shunt placement. * Patients receiving concurrent nerve blocks or trigger point injections within the same visit
