ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryMean Change From Baseline in Monthly Migraine Attacks (According to 24-Hour Rule) Through Month 6Baseline (28 days before randomization) through Month 6
As per 24-hour rule, if symptom of pain due to migraine continues for more than 24 hours, it should be considered as 2 or more migraine attacks considering the maximum duration up to 24 hours. If the interval between latest migraine attack (ending time) and previous migraine attack (onset time) is less than 24 hours, 2 migraine attacks should be considered as 1 migraine attack. If the onset of migraine was prevented by a rescue drug, it should be considered as 1 migraine attack even if aura had started. Mean change was calculated by subtracting baseline value from the mean of 6 months value.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in Average Number of Monthly Migraine Attack Days at Month 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6Baseline (28 days before randomization), Month 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6
Migraine is a headache disorder with 2 subtypes: migraine without aura (at least 5 attacks lasting 4-72 hours with at least 2 following characteristics: unilateral location, pulsating quality, moderate/severe pain and either nausea/vomiting or photophobia and phonophobia) and migraine with aura (reversible focal neurological symptoms that develop over 5-20 minutes and last for less than 60 minutes); average at given month was calculated by dividing total number of migraine attack days until that month by the total number of days of assessment, multiplied by 28 (a month was equal to 28 days).
SecondaryChange From Baseline in Average Number of Monthly Headache Days at Month 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6Baseline (28 days before randomization), Month 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6
Headache days were the days when at least 30-minute migraine and non-migraine headache occurred and were calculated from the headache diaries kept by the participants. Average at given month was calculated by dividing total number of headache days until that month by the total number of days of assessment, multiplied by 28 (a month was equal to 28 days).
SecondaryChange From Baseline in Average Number of Monthly Migraine Attacks (According to the Diagnostic Criteria of the International Headache Society) at Month 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6Baseline (28 days before randomization), Month 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6
Migraine is a headache disorder with 2 subtypes: migraine without aura (at least 5 attacks lasting 4-72 hours with at least 2 following characteristics: unilateral location, pulsating quality, moderate/severe pain and either nausea/vomiting or photophobia and phonophobia) and migraine with aura (reversible focal neurological symptoms that develop over 5-20 minutes and last for less than 60 minutes); average at given month was calculated by dividing total number of migraine attacks until that month by the total number of days of assessment, multiplied by 28 (a month was equal to 28 days).
SecondaryChange From Baseline in Monthly Migraine Attacks (According to 48-Hour Rule) at Month 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6Baseline (28 days before randomization), Month 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6
As per 48-hour rule, if the symptom of pain due to migraine continues for more than 48 hours, it should be considered as 2 or more migraine attacks considering the maximum duration up to 48 hours. If the interval between the latest migraine attack (ending time) and the previous migraine attack (onset time) is less than 48 hours, the 2 migraine attacks should be considered as 1 migraine attack. If the onset of the migraine was prevented by a rescue drug, it should be considered as 1 migraine attack even if the aura had started.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in Migraine Attacks (According to 24-Hour Rule) Over Week 19 to Week 22 PeriodBaseline (28 days before randomization), Week 19 to Week 22 Period
The change from baseline in average number of migraine attacks (as per 24-hour rule) over Week 19 to Week 22 period was calculated by subtracting the baseline value from the average value of the Week 19 to Week 22 period.
SecondaryAverage Number of Rescue Drug Treatment DaysBaseline (28 days before randomization)
Rescue medications are administered to participants when efficacy of study drug is not satisfactory, or effect of study drug is too great and is likely to cause a hazard to participant, or to manage an emergency situation. If an aura of migraine, a migraine attack or a non-migraine headache attack occurred during the study period, use of following rescue drugs was permitted: analgesics, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), ergotamines, triptans and anti-emetics (drug used to stop vomiting). Average at baseline was calculated by dividing total number of rescue drug treatment days until baseline by the total number of days of assessment, multiplied by 28 (a month was equal to 28 days).
SecondaryChange From Baseline in the Average Number of Rescue Drug Treatment Days at Month 6Month 6
Rescue medications are medicines that may be administered to the participants when efficacy of study drug is not satisfactory, or the effect of study drug is too great and is likely to cause a hazard to the participant, or to manage an emergency situation. If an aura of migraine, a migraine attack or a non-migraine headache attack occurred during the study period, use of following rescue drugs was permitted: analgesics, NSAIDs, ergotamines, triptans and anti-emetics. Average at Month 6 was calculated by dividing total number of rescue drug treatment days until that month by the total number of days of assessment, multiplied by 28 (a month was equal to 28 days).
SecondaryPercentage of Participants With Response to Study TreatmentMonth 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6Responders were the participants who had at least 50 percent reduction in the average number of monthly migraine attacks.
SecondaryShort Form-36 Health Survey (SF-36) ScoreBaseline (28 days before randomization), Day 29, 85 and final evaluation (FE) (Day 155/early withdrawal [EW])
The SF-36 is a survey of participant health. It consists of 8 scaled scores, which are weighted sums of the questions in their section. The 8 sections are: vitality, physical functioning, bodily pain, general health perceptions, physical role functioning, emotional role functioning, social role functioning and mental health. Each item is scored on a 0-100 range so that total score ranges from 0-100 with high score indicating more favorable health state. Final evaluation was done at Day 155 or at discontinuation for those participants who discontinued before Day 155.
