This is a prospective, open-label, single-arm pilot study treating 40 subjects to assess the hypothesis that P2Y, G protein-coupled 12 (P2Y12) inhibition with Brilinta/ticagrelor (90 mg by mouth (PO) twice a day) reduces episodic and/or chronic migraine headache symptoms in patients with right to left shunt. Headache frequency while on Brilinta/ticagrelor will be compared with the documented baseline for each subject. If the Brilinta/ticagrelor therapy was effective (> 50% reduction in monthly headache days), the subject could elect to continue therapy for an additional two months (56 days), while continuing to complete daily headache logs.
Migraine headaches are poorly understood, and can be severely debilitating. Many types of drugs have been tried in migraine sufferers including anti-depressants, anti-seizure medications, blood pressure medicines and others. The investigators have shown that in a small number of patients, a certain type of blood thinner (Clopidogrel) can reduce or eliminate migraine headaches in patients who also have a hole in the heart wall that allows flow from the right side of the heart to the left. Ticagrelor is a blood thinning drug which works in the same way as the clopidogrel, but is broken down by the body differently and thus allows everyone to use it. The investigators wish to test this medication to see if it works as well, or better than the clopidogrel.

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ticagrelor 90 mg twice per day | Experimental | Interventions include the following: All participants will have a loading dose of Ticagrelor (Brilinta) 180 mg administered in the office at the time of enrollment. Thereafter, for 28 days, Ticagrelor 90 mg tablet will be taken once in the morning and once in the evening, as close to 12 hours apart as possible. Each day, the subject will receive a text message reminder to login to the website, to record her/his headache activity. |

| Ticagrelor 90 mg twice per day | Drug | Patients will be loaded with 180 mg of Ticagrelor during the enrollment office visit and provided with a 28 day supply of Ticagrelor, 90 mg twice per day. P2Y12 reactivity unit (PRU) testing will be conducted at 7-14 days. If the patient has a positive response, they will have the option of continued access of Ticagrelor 180 mg for another 2 months. Participants will be reminded via text message daily to complete a headache survey on line in order to track their headaches. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Total Number of Responders | A participant will be considered to have achieved the primary efficacy endpoint (a "Responder") if she/he has >50% reduction in the number of monthly headache days during the month of therapy compared with participant's own baseline. If there is < 50% reduction in the number of migraine days, she/he will be considered a Non-Responder. | 1 month from baseline |

Study subjects were recruited from the hospital-based cardiology and headache clinics at Columbia University Medical Center and through the private offices of the study physicians. All subjects were evaluated by a Neurologist and fulfilled MHA criteria of the International Classification of Headache Disorders (ICHD - 3 Beta).

| EG000 | Ticagrelor 90 mg Twice Per Day | Two patients did not complete the TRACTOR Trial protocol due to adverse medication side effects, and five other patients had mild systemic symptoms which were potentially related to ticagrelor. Five additional patients reported unusual bruising while on ticagrelor but had no other clinical issues and completed the trial protocol. There were no significant bleeding issues in any patient treated with ticagrelor. All adverse medication effects were evaluated by the TRACTOR Trial DSMB. None were deemed to be a serious adverse event. |
