Summary:
3-Visit Clinical Trial for Participants with Migraines
A migraine is an intense headache that can cause severe throbbing, pulsing, and pain, typically felt on one side of the head. Symptoms of a migraine include nausea, vomiting, and sensitivity to light and sound. Some individuals who experience migraines experience an aura, or a visual disturbance characterized by light flashes or blind spots.
If you are one of the 36 million Americans who experience migraines, consider enrolling in a clinical trial. BTC of New Bedford is conducting a 3-visit clinical research study to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of an investigational migraine treatment. Qualified participants will receive study-related care at no cost.
