Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.
| List | Outcome | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Percentage of Participants With Freedom From Pain at 2 Hours Post-dose | 2 hours post-dose | Pain levels were assessed on a 4-point scale (none, mild, moderate, severe) using the electronic diary (eDiary). Pain freedom was defined as pain level of none. |
| Primary | Percentage of Participants With Freedom From Most Bothersome Symptom (MBS) at 2 Hours Post-dose | 2 hours post-dose | MBS was reported as nausea, photophobia, or phonophobia at migraine onset using the eDiary. Symptom status (absent, present) was assessed post-dose using the eDiary separately for nausea, photophobia, and phonophobia. Freedom from MBS was defined as MBS reported at onset that was absent post-dose. |
| Secondary | Percentage of Participants With Pain Relief at 2 Hours Post-dose | 2 hours post-dose | Pain levels were assessed on a 4-point scale (none, mild, moderate, severe) using the eDiary. Pain relief was defined as pain level of none or mild. |
| Secondary | Percentage of Participants With Freedom From Functional Disability at 2 Hours Post-dose | 2 hours post-dose | Functional disability level was assessed in the eDiary on a 4-point scale: normal function, mild impairment, severe impairment, required bed rest. Freedom from functional disability was defined as normal function. |
| Secondary | Percentage of Participants With Sustained Pain Relief From 2 to 24 Hours Post-dose | From 2 hours up to 24 hours post-dose | Pain levels were assessed on a 4-point scale (none, mild, moderate, severe) using the eDiary. Sustained pain relief was defined as pain level of none or mild at 2 hours up to 24 hours post-dose with no rescue medication use through 24 hours post-dose. |
| Secondary | Percentage of Participants With Sustained Freedom From Most Bothersome Symptom (MBS) From 2 to 24 Hours Post-dose | From 2 hours up to 24 hours post-dose | MBS was reported as nausea, photophobia, or phonophobia at migraine onset using the eDiary. Symptom status (absent, present) was assessed post-dose using the eDiary separately for nausea, photophobia, and phonophobia. Sustained freedom was defined as MBS reported at onset that was absent at 2 hours up to 24 hours post-dose with no rescue medication use through 24 hours post-dose. |
| Secondary | Percentage of Participants With Rescue Medication Use Within 24 Hours Post-dose | 24 hours post-dose | Participants who did not experience relief of their migraine headache at the end of 2 hours after dosing with study medication (and after the 2-hour assessments had been completed on the eDiary) were permitted to use the following rescue medications: aspirin, ibuprofen, acetaminophen up to 1000 mg/day (this includes Excedrin Migraine), naproxen (or any other type of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug), antiemetics (e.g., metoclopramide or promethazine), or baclofen. The participant's use of rescue medication was recorded by the participant in a paper diary. |
| Secondary | Percentage of Participants With Sustained Freedom From Functional Disability From 2 to 24 Hours Post-dose | From 2 hours up to 24 hours post-dose | Functional disability level was assessed in the eDiary on a 4-point scale: normal function, mild impairment, severe impairment, required bed rest. Sustained freedom from functional disability was defined as normal function at 2 hours up to 24 hours post-dose with no rescue medication use through 24 hours post-dose. |
| Secondary | Percentage of Participants With Sustained Pain Relief From 2 to 48 Hours Post-dose | From 2 hours up to 48 hours post-dose | Pain levels were assessed on a 4-point scale (none, mild, moderate, severe) using the eDiary. Sustained pain relief was defined as pain level of none or mild at 2 hours up to 48 hours post-dose with no rescue medication use through 48 hours post-dose. |
| Secondary | Percentage of Participants With Sustained Freedom From Most Bothersome Symptom (MBS) From 2 to 48 Hours Post-dose | From 2 hours up to 48 hours post-dose | MBS was reported as nausea, photophobia, or phonophobia at migraine onset using the eDiary. Symptom status (absent, present) was assessed post-dose using the eDiary separately for nausea, photophobia, and phonophobia. Sustained freedom was defined as MBS reported at onset that was absent at 2 hours up to 48 hours post-dose with no rescue medication use through 48 hours post-dose. |
