Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Males and females between 18 and 65 years of age, inclusive, who were diagnosed with migraines at ≤ 50 years of age, and have a history of chronic migraine for ≥ 12 months before screening.

Exclusion criteria

  • Receipt of any monoclonal antibody treatment (within or outside a clinical trial) within 6 months before screening.
  • Confounding and clinically significant pain syndromes (e.g. fibromyalgia, chronic low back pain, complex regional pain syndrome).
  • Psychiatric conditions that are uncontrolled and/or untreated, including conditions that are not controlled for a minimum of 6 months prior to screening. Patients with a lifetime history of psychosis, mania, or dementia are excluded.
  • History or diagnosis of complicated migraine (ICHD-III beta version, 20134), chronic tension-type headache, hypnic headache, cluster headache, hemicrania continua, new daily persistent headache, or sporadic and familial hemiplegic migraine.

Treatment and study plan

ALD403 (Eptinezumab)

Biological

Other names: Eptinezumab-jjmr, Vyepti

Primary outcomes

  1. Number of Participants With Any Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)

    Time frame: 104 Weeks

    Treatment emergent adverse events were defined as adverse events with start date and time on or after the date and time of the initial study drug infusion.

  2. Number of Participants With a Clinically Significant Electrocardiogram

    Time frame: Baseline, Day 0 Postdose, Week 12, 24, 36, 48 60, 72 and 84 (Predose and Postdose), and Week 104

    Overall investigator interpretation of participant electrocardiogram

  3. Number of Participants With Any Clinically Significant Laboratory Values

    Time frame: 104 Weeks

    Each of the laboratory values that were reported as abnormal and clinically significant and entered as adverse events in the database.

  4. Number of Participants Experiencing Suicidal Ideation or Suicidal Behavior on Columbia-Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS)

    Time frame: 104 Weeks

    Baseline responses are collected at screening and assess suicidal ideation in the past 6 months. Post baseline reports the worst assessment of suicidal ideation since the last visit for all post baseline visits.

  5. Number of Participants With Any Clinically Significant (CS) Changes in Vital Signs

    Time frame: 104 Weeks

    Changes in vital signs that were considered clinically meaningful or clinically significant (CS) by the Investigator

Secondary outcomes

  1. Patient Global Impression of Change (PGIC) at Week 104

    Time frame: Week 104

    The PGIC includes a single question concerning the participant's impression of the change in their disease status since the start of the study. Seven responses are possible: Very much improved, much improved, minimally improved, no change, minimally worse, much worse, very much worse.

  2. Change in Baseline of Short Form Health Survey (SF-36 v 2.0) Scale Scores

    Time frame: Baseline to Week 12

    The SF-36 is a health survey consisting of 36 questions consisting of eight scaled scores to measure quality of life over the past 4 weeks (scale range: 0=worst to 100=best). Increases from baseline indicate improvement.

  3. Health Related Quality of Life (EQ-5D-5L) at Week 12

    Time frame: Week 12

    The EQ-5D-5L is a descriptive health-related quality of life states consisting of 5 dimensions/questions (mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, anxiety/depression) each of which can take one of five responses. The responses record five levels of severity (no problems/slight problems/moderate problems/severe problems/extreme problems) within a particular EQ-5D dimension.

  4. Change in Baseline of Headache Impact Test (HIT-6) Score

    Time frame: Baseline, Week 1-4, Week 9-12

    The HIT-6 measures the impact of headache on the participant's functional health and well-being in 6 domains: pain; role functioning (ability to carry out usual activities); social functioning; energy or fatigue; cognition; and emotional distress assess over the prior 12-week period. The total possible scores range from 36 (no impact) to 78 (worst impact). The change in baseline will be calculated from the average scores.

  5. Change in Most Bothersome Symptom at Week 48

    Time frame: Baseline to Week 48

    The Investigator verbally obtained the most bothersome symptom associated with the participant's migraine during the screening visit. The most bothersome symptom may include nausea, vomiting, sensitivity to light, sensitivity to sound, mental cloudiness, fatigue, pain with activity, mood changes, or other migraine related symptoms. Participants were asked to rate the improvement in this symptom from screening on a seven-point scale.

  6. Change From Baseline of Migraine Disability Assessment (MIDAS) Total Score

    Time frame: Baseline to Week 12

    The MIDAS questionnaire measures the effect headaches have on the participant's daily functioning. MIDAS is composed of five questions that ask about the participant's performance over the past 3 months. The response to each question is provided in number of days which are summed to determine the MIDAS total score and level of disability:

    0-5, MIDAS Grade I, little or no disability; 6-10, MIDAS Grade II, mild disability; 11-20, MIDAS Grade III, moderate disability; 21+, MIDAS Grade IV, severe disability;

    A higher value represents a worse outcome.

  7. Development of Anti-ALD403 Antibody by Visit

    Time frame: Baseline, Week 2, 4, 8, 12, 24, 36, 48, 72 and 104

    Serum blood samples were taken at visits to test for the development of antibodies to ALD403, or anti-drug antibodies (ADA). Participants who tested positive for anti-ALD403 antibodies at the time of the last study visit were asked to provide up to 2 additional blood samples for immunogenicity testing at approximately 3 month intervals for up to 6 months.

  8. Summary of Neutralizing Properties of Anti-ALD403 Antibodies by Visit

    Time frame: Baseline, Week 2, 4, 8, 12, 24, 36, 48, 72 and 104

    Any samples that were positive for anti-ALD403 antibody, there was additional testing to characterize the anti-ALD403 antibody for the potential to neutralize (NAb) ALD403 activity.
