About this study

Official title: A Proof of Concept Clinical Investigation Designed to Evaluate the Performance of Lumishade® Lens With Frame in Alleviating the Symptoms of Photosensitive Migraine.

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.

Read the detailed description

Patients will be randomised to one of two groups:

Group 1

  1. Patients wear sham glasses for 4 weeks
  2. Patients have 1 week's washout
  3. Patients wear active glasses for 4 weeks Group 2
  4. Patients wear active glasses for 4 weeks
  5. Patients have 1 week's washout
  6. Patients wear sham glasses for 4 weeks

The study will aim to determine whether wearing the active lens successfully reduces the symptoms of migraine, compared to wearing sham lens.

Assuming a fairly conservative SD in the primary endpoint of 8 points, a total of 56 participants would be required to have 90% power to detect a minimum clinically significant difference of 5 points in a two-sample t-test. Allowing for a 20% drop-out rate, 70 participants would need to be recruited.

Patients will be in the trial for a total of 13 weeks (4 week run-in, two 4 week periods, with 1 week washout in between).

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Lumishade® Active LensDevice

    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® Sham LensDevice

    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.)

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  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.

    Measured: up to 13 weeks for each patients participation

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Patient diary

    A headache diary. A headache diary serves to:

    • Monitor the frequency, duration and severity of your headaches over time
    • Identify patterns that may help determine triggers and improve treatment
    • Track medication use and response
    • Maintain long term records of what has worked and what has not

    Measured: up to 13 weeks for each patients participation

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Lumishade® Active Lens in people with Migraine, run by Mitsui Chemicals, Inc..

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 11 inclusion and 16 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 27 May 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Yoshito Takeuchi (+81-90-4822-4960, Yoshito.Takeuchi@mitsuichemicals.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Headache Impact Test 6 (time frame: up to 13 weeks for each patients participation). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 27 May 2021.
