What is being measured

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

  1. Change From Baseline in Mean Monthly Migraine Days Across 12-Week Treatment Period in mITT Population

    Participants recorded daily duration of migraine in a diary. A migraine day was any calendar day on which the participant experienced a migraine headache. The monthly (4-week) migraine days were defined as the total number of reported migraine days in diary divided by total number of days with diary records during each 4-week period and multiplied by 28. Each 4-week period was averaged. Baseline is defined as the number of migraine days during the last 28 days prior to the randomization date. Negative change from Baseline indicates improvement. Mixed-effects model for repeated measures (MMRM) was used for analysis.

    Measured: Baseline to Week 12

  2. Change From Baseline in Mean Monthly Migraine Days Across 12-Week Treatment Period in OTHE Population

    Participants recorded daily duration of migraine in a diary. A migraine day was any calendar day on which the participant experienced a migraine headache. The monthly (4-week) migraine days were defined as the total number of reported migraine days in diary divided by total number of days with diary records during each 4-week period and multiplied by 28. Each 4-week period was averaged. Baseline is defined as the number of migraine days during the last 28 days prior to the randomization date. Negative change from Baseline indicates improvement. MMRM was used for analysis.

    Measured: Baseline to Week 12

MMRM was used for analysis.

    Measured: Baseline to Week 12

  4. Change From Baseline in Mean Monthly Headache Days Across the 12-week Treatment Period in OTHE Population

    Participants recorded daily total duration of a headache in a diary. A headache day is any calendar day on which the participant experienced a headache pain lasting 2 hours or longer unless an acute headache medication was used after the start of the headache. The monthly (4-week) headache days were defined as the total number of reported headache days in the diary divided by the total number of days with diary records during each 4-week period and multiplied by 28. Each 4-week period was averaged. Baseline is defined as the number of headache days during the last 28 days prior to the randomization date. Negative change from Baseline indicates improvement. MMRM was used for analysis.

    Measured: Baseline to Week 12

  5. Change From Baseline in Mean Monthly Acute Medication Use Days Across the 12-week Treatment Period in mITT Population

    An acute medication use day is defined as any day on which a participant reports, per eDiary, the intake of allowed medication(s) to treat an acute migraine. The monthly (4-week) acute medication use days were defined as the total number of reported acute medication use days in the diary divided by the total number of days with diary records during each 4-week period and multiplied by 28. Each 4-week period was averaged. Baseline is defined as the number of migraine days during the last 28 days prior to the randomization date. A negative change from Baseline indicates improvement.

    Measured: Baseline to Week 12

  6. Change From Baseline in Mean Monthly Acute Medication Use Days Across the 12-week Treatment Period in OTHE Population

    An acute medication use day is defined as any day on which a participant reports, per eDiary, the intake of allowed medication(s) to treat an acute migraine. The monthly (4-week) acute medication use days were defined as the total number of reported acute medication use days in the diary divided by the total number of days with diary records during each 4-week period and multiplied by 28. Each 4-week period was averaged. Baseline is defined as the number of migraine days during the last 28 days prior to the randomization date. A negative change from Baseline indicates improvement.

    Measured: Baseline to Week 12

  7. Change From Baseline in Migraine Specific Quality of Life Questionnaire (MSQ) v2.1 Role Function-Restrictive Domain Score at Week 12 in mITT Population

    The MSQ v2.1 is a 14-item questionnaire designed to measure health-related quality of life impairments attributed to migraine in the past 4 weeks. It is divided into 3 domains: Role Function Restrictive (question numbers 1-7, score ranges 7 to 42) assesses how migraines limit one's daily social and work-related activities; Role Function Preventive (question numbers 8-11, score ranges 4 to 24) assesses how migraines prevent these activities; and the Emotional Function (question numbers 12-14, score ranges 3 to 18) domain assesses the emotions associated with migraines. Participants respond to items using a 6-point scale ranging from none of the time to all of the time. Raw dimension scores are computed as a sum of item responses and rescaled to a 0 to 100 scale, where higher scores indicate better quality of life. MMRM was used for analysis.

    Measured: Baseline to Week 12

  11. Change From Baseline in the Headache Impact Test (HIT-6) Total Score at Week 12 in OTHE Population

    HIT-6 is a 6-question assessment used to measure the impact headaches have on a participant's ability to function on the job, at school, at home, and in social situations. It assesses the effect that headaches have on normal daily life and the participant's ability to function. Responses are based on frequency using a 5-point scale ranging from "never" to "always." The HIT-6 total score, which ranges from 36 to 78, is the sum of the responses - each of which is assigned a score ranging from 6 points (never) to 13 points (always). MMRM was used for the analyses.

    Measured: Baseline to Week 12

  12. Number of Participants Experiencing Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)

    An adverse event (AE) is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical investigation participant administered a pharmaceutical product which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. The investigator assesses the relationship of each event to the use of study drug. TEAEs were defined as any AE with the onset that was after the first dose of study intervention.

    Measured: From first dose of study drug until 30 days after last dose of study drug (up to Week 12)
