This research study is looking for biological markers in saliva that might explain why migraine treatments work differently for different people. Researchers will collect a saliva sample and a blood sample from you to measure a protein called CGRP and perform genetic and hormone tests. By understanding these biological differences between people with migraines and those without, doctors hope to develop more personalized and effective migraine treatment plans.
Right now, doctors often have to try different migraine treatments to see what works for each patient — a slow, frustrating process. This study aims to find a simple saliva test that could help predict which treatments will work best for you based on your individual biology, rather than through trial and error.

You will visit the research clinic once to provide a saliva sample (collected in a small tube) and a blood sample drawn by a nurse. The visit should take about 30 minutes. Researchers will then measure the protein levels in your saliva and run genetic and hormone tests on your blood to identify patterns that may explain migraine differences. There are no ongoing treatments or follow-up visits required.
