NCT03156920

Brief Summary

To develop a pragmatic migraine model the investigators will induce headache in healthy volunteers with a phosphodiesterase inhibitor (cilostazol). The participants will be pre-treated with sumatriptan. If the headache responds to sumatriptan, the model can be used to test new drug candidates.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Difference in median headache score 2 hours after cilostazol

    The investigators will assess the outcome measures 1 year after the beginning of the study

    2 hours

  • Area under the headache score curve

    The investigators will assess the outcome measures 1 year after the beginning of the study

    12 hours

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Difference in peak headache score

    12 hours

Study Arms (2)

Sumatriptan

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Headache is induced with Cilostazol. This headache is pre-treated double-blinded with 2 tablets of sumatriptan 50 mg

Drug: Sumatriptan

Placebo

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

Headache is induced with Cilostazol. This headache is pre-treated double-blinded with 2 tablets of placebo

Drug: Placebo

Interventions

Cilostazol is given both study days to induce headache. One day the headache is treated with placebo and the other day with sumatriptan

Placebo

Cilostazol is given both study days to induce headache. One day the headache is treated with placebo and the other day with sumatriptan

Sumatriptan
