Inclusion criteria

  • Patient has a history of migraine (according to The International Classification of Headache Disorders, third edition [beta version] criteria) or clinical judgment suggests a migraine diagnosis
  • Patient fulfills the criteria for Chronic migraine in baseline information collected during the 28 day screening period
  • Not using preventive migraine medications for migraine or other medical conditions or using no more than 1 preventive migraine medication for migraine or other medical conditions if the dose and regimen have been stable for at least 2 months prior to giving informed consent.
  • Patient demonstrates compliance with the electronic headache diary during the screening period by entry of headache data on a minimum of 24 of 28 days and the entered data is judged appropriate by the investigator.

Exclusion criteria

  • Patients who have previously failed (lack of efficacy) 2 or more of the clusters of the medications for treatment of migraine after use for at least 3 months at accepted migraine therapeutic doses
  • Patient suffers from unremitting headaches, defined as having headaches for more than 80% of the time that he/she is awake, and less than 4 days without headache per month. Daily headache is acceptable if the patient has headaches 80% or less of the time they are awake on most days.
  • Hematological, cardiac, renal, endocrine, pulmonary, gastrointestinal, genitourinary, neurologic, hepatic, or ocular disease considered clinically significant in the judgment of the investigator

Primary outcomes

  1. Mean Change From Baseline in the Monthly (28 Day) Average Number of Headache Days of at Least Moderate Severity During the 12-week Period After the First Dose of Investigational Medicinal Product (IMP)

    Time frame: Baseline, 12 weeks

    Headache-related efficacy endpoints were derived from headache variables collected using an eDiary. On each day, subjects entered headache data in the electronic headache diary for the previous 24-hour period. Subjects who had experienced headache on the previous day answered questions about the headache (ie, occurrence of headache, duration of headache, maximum severity of headache, presence/absence of associated symptoms, and use of acute headache medications). Overall headache duration was recorded numerically, in hours, as well as number of hours with headache of at least moderate severity. If headache was reported, then headache severity was subjectively rated by the subject as mild, moderate, or severe.

    Subjects also recorded the presence or absence of photophobia, phonophobia, nausea, or vomiting, and the status of use of any acute headache medications.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Mean Change From Baseline in the Monthly Average Number of Migraine Days During the 12-week Period After the First Dose of IMP

    Time frame: Baseline, 12 weeks

    Headache-related efficacy endpoints were derived from headache variables collected using an eDiary. On each day, subjects entered headache data in the electronic headache diary for the previous 24-hour period. Subjects who had experienced headache on the previous day answered questions about the headache (ie, occurrence of headache, duration of headache, maximum severity of headache, presence/absence of associated symptoms, and use of acute headache medications). Overall headache duration was recorded numerically, in hours, as well as number of hours with headache of at least moderate severity. If headache was reported, then headache severity was subjectively rated by the subject as mild, moderate, or severe.

    Subjects also recorded the presence or absence of photophobia, phonophobia, nausea, or vomiting, and the status of use of any acute headache medications.

  2. Proportion of Subjects Reaching at Least 50% Reduction in the Monthly Average Number of Headache Days of at Least Moderate Severity During the 12-week Period After the First Dose of IMP

    Time frame: 12 weeks

    Headache-related efficacy endpoints were derived from headache variables collected using an eDiary. On each day, subjects entered headache data in the electronic headache diary for the previous 24-hour period. Subjects who had experienced headache on the previous day answered questions about the headache (ie, occurrence of headache, duration of headache, maximum severity of headache, presence/absence of associated symptoms, and use of acute headache medications). Overall headache duration was recorded numerically, in hours, as well as number of hours with headache of at least moderate severity. If headache was reported, then headache severity was subjectively rated by the subject as mild, moderate, or severe.

    Subjects also recorded the presence or absence of photophobia, phonophobia, nausea, or vomiting, and the status of use of any acute headache medications.

  3. Mean Change From Baseline in the Monthly Average Number of Days With Use of Any Acute Headache Medications During the 12-week Period After the First Dose of IMP

    Time frame: Baseline, 12 weeks

    Headache-related efficacy endpoints were derived from headache variables collected using an eDiary. On each day, subjects entered headache data in the electronic headache diary for the previous 24-hour period. Subjects who had experienced headache on the previous day answered questions about the headache (ie, occurrence of headache, duration of headache, maximum severity of headache, presence/absence of associated symptoms, and use of acute headache medications).

  4. Mean Change From Baseline in the Monthly Average Number of Headache Days of at Least Moderate Severity During the 12-week Period After the First Dose of IMP in Subjects Not Receiving Concomitant Preventive Migraine Medications

    Time frame: Baseline, 12 weeks

    Headache-related efficacy endpoints were derived from headache variables collected using an eDiary. On each day, subjects entered headache data in the electronic headache diary for the previous 24-hour period. Subjects who had experienced headache on the previous day answered questions about the headache (ie, occurrence of headache, duration of headache, maximum severity of headache, presence/absence of associated symptoms, and use of acute headache medications). Overall headache duration was recorded numerically, in hours, as well as number of hours with headache of at least moderate severity. If headache was reported, then headache severity was subjectively rated by the subject as mild, moderate, or severe.

    Subjects also recorded the presence or absence of photophobia, phonophobia, nausea, or vomiting, and the status of use of any acute headache medications."

  5. Mean Change From Baseline in Disability Score, as Measured by 6-Item Headache Impact Test (HIT-6) at 4 Weeks After the Final (Third) Dose of IMP

    Time frame: Baseline, 4 weeks

    Subjects assessed the impact of headache on social functioning, role functioning, vitality, cognitive functioning, and psychological distress, using the HIT-6. The HIT-6 total score will be obtained from summation of the 6 question points.Each question is answered on the scale ranging with the following response options: 6 points (never), 8 points (rarely), 10 points (sometimes), 11 points (very often), and 13 points (always).
