About this study

This is a single group, multicenter, open-label study with a study population of patients who meet International Classification of Headache Disorders 3rd edition (ICHD-III) criteria for migraine with or without aura and have 4 to 20 migraine days per month. This is a single-group supportive care study with one arm and no masking. A maximum of 54 participants will be enrolled to study intervention. All participants in this single-group study will complete a 4-week run-in period. After the run-in period, eligible participants will be enrolled to study intervention and enter a 12-week treatment period.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

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

Inclusion criteria

Participants are eligible to be included in the study only if all of the following criteria apply:

  • willing to participate and sign informed consent;
  • ability to understand informed consent and study procedures, including able to use the electronic Daily Headache Diary;
  • in good general health based on investigator's judgment;
  • must be between 18 to 65 years of age, inclusive, at time of Visit 2;
  • have migraine with or without aura meeting the diagnostic criteria listed in the International Classification of Headache Disorders 3rd edition (ICHD-III; Appendix 5);
  • verification of headache frequency through prospectively collected baseline information during the 28-day screening/baseline phase reporting 4-20 migraine days and no more than 20 total headache days;
  • onset of migraine before age 50;
  • able to differentiate migraine from other primary headache types allowed in the study (e.g., tension-type headache);
