NCT04904328

Brief Summary

This proof of concept clinical study will investigate the efficacy of active lens with frame in alleviating the symptoms of migraine which are caused by photosensitivity. The spectacles cut out blue light wavelength and hypothetically alleviate symptoms of migraine and thus either treat or prevent migraine headaches from occurring.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Headache Impact Test 6

    The primary endpoint is the change in Headache Impact Test (HIT-6) score from end of run-in (Baseline) to end of treatment period following 4 weeks of treatment. The HIT 6 questionnaire is a licensed questionnaire with standardised calculations to assess the responses to the questions in the questionnaire.

    up to 13 weeks for each patients participation

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Patient diary

    up to 13 weeks for each patients participation

Study Arms (2)

Lumishade® active lens

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Treatment of photosensitive migraine with a Lumishade® active device.

Device: Lumishade® Active Lens

Lumishade® sham lens

SHAM COMPARATOR

Treatment of photosensitive migraine with a Lumishade® sham device.

Device: Lumishade® Sham Lens

Interventions

Migraine episodes are often triggered or exacerbated by environmental factors, particularly light. Active lens has been designed by blocking particular range of wavelength and hypothetically alleviate symptoms of migraine and thus either treat or prevent migraine headaches from occurring. (Note, we are reluctant to write any further information around the devices on this public record while the study is active to ensure we maintain the blind of the trial.)

Lumishade® active lens

Lumishade® Sham lens has been designed as inactive and not blocking particular range of wavelength. Thus, it will not alleviate or prevent symptoms of migraine. (Note, we are reluctant to write any further information around the devices on this public record while the study is active to ensure we maintain the blind of the trial.)

During headache at least one of the following: i. nausea and/or vomiting ii. photophobia and phonophobia e. Not attributed to another disorder
  • Migraine associated with photophobia i.e. either photic hypersensitivity or photic allodynia or inter-ictal photophobia or migraine triggered by light according to patient or a combination of these 4 factors
  • No expected changes of headache preventative medications after enrolment

  • Have received Botox injections for any purpose in the head or face region within 3 months of trial onset or scheduled to receive such treatment during the trial
  • Medication overuse as per the revised ICHD-3 IHS criteria
  • Medications that can affect light perception like ethambutol, hydroxychloroquine or amiodarone or any other according to the opinion of the investigator
  • Patients requiring prescription/reading glasses
  • Patients who have not responded to three or more migraine preventive drugs
  • +1 more criteria
