Primary outcomes

  1. Mean Change From Baseline in the Number of Monthly Cumulative Headache Hours of Any Severity on Headache Days Relative to the 28-day Post-treatment Period Ending With Week 12

    Time frame: Baseline to week 12

    A headache day was defined as when at least 1 of the following situations occurred: A calendar day (0:00 to 23:59) demonstrating at least 4 consecutive hours of a headache of any severity or the participant used acute migraine medication (triptans and ergot compounds) to treat a headache. This calculation was defined as the change from baseline in the number of hours with headache of any severity during the 28-day post treatment period ending at week 12. Headache severity was rated daily by the participant as either no pain, mild, moderate, or severe.

  2. Number of Participants With at Least One Adverse Event

    Time frame: Baseline to week 12

    An AE was defined as any untoward medical occurrence that develops or worsens in severity during the conduct of a clinical study and does not necessarily have a causal relationship to the study drug. Relationship of AE to treatment was determined by the Investigator. Serious AEs include death, a life-threatening adverse event, inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, persistent or significant disability or incapacity, a congenital anomaly or birth defect, or an important medical event that jeopardized the participant and required medical intervention to prevent the previously listed serious outcomes. A summary of other non-serious AEs and all serious AEs, regardless of causality is located in Reported AE section.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Mean Change From Baseline in the Number of Headache Days of at Least Moderate Severity Relative to the 28-day Post-treatment Period Ending With Week 12

    Time frame: Baseline to week 12

    A headache day was defined as when at least 1 of the following situations occurred: A calendar day (0:00 to 23:59) demonstrating at least 4 consecutive hours of a headache of any severity or the participant used acute migraine medication (triptans and ergot compounds) to treat a headache. This calculation was defined as the change from baseline in the number of headache days of at least moderate severity during the 28-day post treatment period ending at week 12. Headache severity was rated daily by the participant as either no pain, mild, moderate, or severe.
