This trial tests whether people with long-term headache after a mild head injury have an abnormal reaction to a substance called adrenomedullin, which may play a role in causing headaches. You will receive adrenomedullin and a placebo in separate sessions to see how your headache responds.
This study looks at treatment for ongoing headache that starts or gets worse after a mild or moderate head/neck injury in veterans or active-duty service members. It may help by testing an approach aimed at reducing headache burden and improving daily functioning.
This Phase 2 study tests a medication that blocks a pain signal (a CGRP receptor antibody) in people who recently had a mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) and are also dealing with post-traumatic headache (PTH). The goal is to see if it can reduce symptoms and improve recovery after the injury.
This study tests if ketamine infusions or a stellate ganglion block (a numbing injection near the neck) can help people with long-term headaches or PTSD after a traumatic brain injury. It compares these treatments alone and together.
This study checks if a natural substance called amylin might make your headache worse after a head injury. The researchers will see how your body reacts to amylin compared to a placebo, which could help find new treatments.
This trial tests whether giving eptinezumab (an antibody that blocks a pain protein) soon after a head injury can reduce the severity and duration of headaches that start after trauma. If you've had new or worsening headaches within the past 8 weeks after a head injury, this treatment might help prevent them from becoming chronic.
