    Effect of PACAP38/VIP on Migraineurs Measured by Magnetic Resonance

    NCT01471990

    May 2011 to Jun 2012

Registry summary

Text and fields below are the sponsor's entries at ClinicalTrials.gov, shown as posted.

The purpose of this study is to examine and compare the effect of pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide-38 (PACAP38) and vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP) on intracranial arteries and neuronal activity in patients with migraine without aura using a high resolution magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), including MR angiography (MRA) and functional MRI (fMRI). MRA will be used to detect changes in intracranial artery circumferences before and after PACAP38 and VIP. fMRI will be used oo detect changes in blood-oxygenation-level-dependent-signal (BOLD-signal). PACAP38 but not VIP induces migraine like attacks in migraine patients. The migraine specific drug sumatriptan will be given to relieve pain and the effect will also be registered using MRA and fMRI.
