clonidine and Bilateral Headache

clonidine has been researched along with Bilateral Headache in 36 studies

Clonidine: An imidazoline sympatholytic agent that stimulates ALPHA-2 ADRENERGIC RECEPTORS and central IMIDAZOLINE RECEPTORS. It is commonly used in the management of HYPERTENSION.
clonidine (amino form) : A clonidine that is 4,5-dihydro-1H-imidazol-2-amine in which one of the amino hydrogens is replaced by a 2,6-dichlorophenyl group.

Trial Outcomes

Number of Participants With Serious and Non-serious Adverse Events Assessed by the Common Terminology Criteria in Adverse Events (CTCAE v4.0)

Here is the count of participants with serious and non-serious adverse events assessed by the Common Terminology Criteria in Adverse Events (CTCAE v4.0). A non-serious adverse event is any untoward medical occurrence. A serious adverse event is an adverse event or suspected adverse reaction that results in death, a life threatening adverse drug experience, hospitalization, disruption of the ability to conduct normal life functions, congenital anomaly/birth defect or important medical events that jeopardize the patient or subject and may require medical or surgical intervention to prevent one of the previous outcomes mentioned. (NCT01967576)
Timeframe: Date treatment consent signed to date off study, approximately 54 months and 29 days.

InterventionParticipants (Count of Participants)
1/Arm 1-Axitinib14

Progression - Free Survival (PFS)

PFS is defined as the duration of time from start of treatment to time of progression or death, whichever comes first. Disease progression was assessed by the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) and is defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of the diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study (this includes the baseline sum if that is the smallest on study). In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 mm. (Note: the appearance of one or more new lesions is also considered progressions). (NCT01967576)
Timeframe: time from start of treatment to time of progression or death, up to 5 years and 9 months

Interventionmonths (Median)
1/Arm 1-Axitinib7.7

Number of Participants With Clinical Response (Partial Response + Complete Response)

Response was assessed by the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST). Partial Response (PR) is at least a 30% decrease in the sum of the diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum diameters. Complete Response (CR) is disappearance of all target lesions. Any pathological lymph nodes (whether target or no-target) must have reduction in short axis to <10 mm. Stable Disease (SD) is neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for PD, taking as reference the smallest sum diameters while on study. Progressive Disease (PD) is at least a 20% increase in the sum of the diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study (this includes the baseline sum if that is the smallest on study). (NCT01967576)
Timeframe: Patients were assessed every 12 weeks (+/- week) up to 40.6 months
