Immune cells and migraines study
Treatments studied
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Brain & nervous system, Digestive system, Immune system & allergy, Pain, Skin, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study looks at how certain immune cells and inflammatory chemicals relate to migraines. If you have migraines or an autoimmune condition (like lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, or Crohn's disease), you may be able to participate. The goal is to understand what causes migraines.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are female and between 18 and 50 years old
- You weigh at least 110 pounds
- You have either migraines (at least 4 headache days per month) or an autoimmune disease (such as multiple sclerosis, lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, Crohn's disease, type 1 diabetes, or endometriosis)
- Your body mass index (BMI) is between 18 and 30
- You are not pregnant, nursing, or going through menopause
- You do not have type 2 diabetes, another autoimmune disease, or a history of organ transplant

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study collects blood, tissue, and other samples from people with autoimmune diseases like Crohn's disease, multiple sclerosis, or lupus. Researchers will study your immune cells (T cells) to learn what they are attacking, which could lead to better treatments in the future.
This study looks at the link between endometriosis and migraine. Researchers want to understand how these conditions affect each other, so they need people with endometriosis, migraine, or both, as well as healthy volunteers without chronic pain.
This trial looks at the chemical changes in the blood of people with migraine. It aims to better understand the disease and may help find new treatments. You may qualify if you have episodic or chronic migraine and have not tried CGRP-targeting drugs.
This research study collects samples and information from people with rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, or scleroderma, plus healthy volunteers, to better understand how the immune system works in these conditions. By comparing these groups, researchers hope to find new ways to treat and manage autoimmune diseases.
This study measures blood “biomarkers” (signals in blood) to better understand inflammatory diseases, including autoimmune and autoinflammatory conditions. You may be asked to give blood samples now and possibly extra samples if needed for testing.
This study looks at blood “biomarkers,” or measurable body signals, in people with autoimmune diseases, vasculitis, or autoinflammatory conditions. The goal is to better understand these illnesses and how they relate to disease activity.
