Cognitive Function: Repeatable Battery for the Assessment of Neuropsychological Status (RBANS) Total Absolute Scores at Baseline, 36 Months Follow-up Visit, and Change From Baseline in RBANS Total Score at 36 Months Follow-up Visit
Time frame: Baseline, 36 Months follow-up visit
The RBANS is a 30-minute comprehensive screening test with five individual domains (immediate memory, delayed memory, attention, language, and visuospatial ability) to examine the cognitive mental status of a participant. Scores from all individual domain were aggregated into a total score and thus RBANS total score ranged from 40 to 160, where higher scores reflected better performance.

HIT-6 is an easy to administer assessment that was used as a clinical evaluation of the impact of headache on a participant's QoL in both clinical practice and clinical research. The questionnaire included 6 questions covering the 6 areas of functioning most impacted in headache sufferers including pain, role functioning (the ability to carry out usual activities), social functioning, vitality (energy/ fatigue), cognitive functioning, and psychological/emotional distress. Total HIT-6 scores (sum of all individual questions) ranged from 36 (best outcome) to 78 (worst outcome), where higher scores indicated worse condition.

Percentage of Participants With Drug-induced Treatment-emergent (TE) Anti-drug Antibodies (ADA) Positive Response
Time frame: From Baseline up to 36 months
Drug-induced TE ADA positive was based on the outcome of a tiered assay approach that included a modified ADA (mADA) method to eliminate the effects of pre-existing antibodies (pre-Ab). TE ADA responses reported here included both pre-Ab positive and negative responses. A participant was considered as drug-induced TE ADA positive if post-dose samples were positive, regardless of the status of pre-dose samples in the ADA and modified ADA assay.

Time frame: From Baseline up to 36 months
An AE was any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant administered a medicinal product and which did not necessarily had to have a causal relationship with the treatment. An SAE was any untoward medical occurrence that at any dose: resulted in death, was life-threatening, required inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, resulted in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, was a congenital anomaly/birth defect, was a medically important event.
