What this trial studies

This study aims to assess the safety and effectiveness of the PRIMUS System in patients suffering from chronic or high-frequency episodic migraines. Participants must have a history of migraines for at least one year and have failed three or more preventive treatments. The study will involve monitoring the clinical benefits and performance of the device in this specific patient population. The approach focuses on providing a potential new treatment option for those who have not found relief through traditional therapies.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates are individuals diagnosed with chronic or high-frequency episodic migraines who have failed multiple preventive treatments.

Not a fit: Patients currently using other neuromodulation devices or those who have had recent treatments like botulinum toxin injections may not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this could offer a new treatment option for patients with resistant migraines who have not responded to existing therapies.

How similar studies have performed: While there have been studies on neuromodulation for migraines, the specific use of the PRIMUS System represents a novel approach that has not been extensively tested.
