Primary Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
|
Percentage of Participants With Pain Freedom at 2 Hours After Initial Dose
Time Frame: Baseline (Predose) to 2 hours after initial dose
|
Pain freedom was defined as a reduction in headache pain severity from moderate/severe at baseline to no pain at 2 hours after the initial dose of investigational product.
Participants were provided with electronic diary (eDiary) to rate headache severity on a scale from no pain to severe pain.
Number analyzed is the number of participants with non-missing postdose pain severity assessment at or before 2 hours after initial dose.
|
Baseline (Predose) to 2 hours after initial dose
|
|
Percentage of Participants With Absence of the Most Bothersome Migraine-Associated Symptom Identified at Baseline at 2-Hours After Initial Dose
Time Frame: Baseline (Predose) to 2 hours after initial dose
|
The most bothersome migraine-associated symptom was the symptom (photophobia, phonophobia or nausea) present at pre-dose baseline identified by the participant to be 'most bothersome'.
Participants were provided with an eDiary to record absence or presence of migraine-associated symptoms.
Number analyzed is the number of participants with non-missing postdose most bothersome migraine-associated symptoms assessed.

Measure Description |
Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
|
Percentage of Participants With Pain Relief at 2 Hours After the Initial Dose
Time Frame: Baseline (Predose) to 2 hours after initial dose
|
Pain relief was defined as a reduction of a moderate/severe migraine headache to a mild headache or to no headache.
Participants were provided with an eDiary to rate headache severity on a scale from no pain to severe pain.
Number analyzed is the number of participants with non-missing pain severity assessment at or before 2 hours after initial dose.
|
Baseline (Predose) to 2 hours after initial dose
|
|
Percentage of Participants With Sustained Pain Relief From 2 to 24 Hours After Initial Dose
Time Frame: 2 to 24 hours after initial dose
|
Sustained pain relief was defined as a pain relief at 2 hours with no administration of either rescue medication or the second dose of study drug, and with no occurrence thereafter of a moderate/severe headache up to 24 hours after dosing with study drug.
Participants were provided with an eDiary to rate headache severity on a scale from no pain to severe pain.
Determinable cases: participants for whom sustained pain relief from 2 to 24 hours status can be determined based on the observed headache severity at scheduled time points, use of rescue medication or optional second dose between 2 and 24 hours, and the answer to the headache recurrence question at 24 hours.
Number analyzed is the number of participants with assessment of determinable sustained pain relief from 2 to 24 hours after initial dose.

|
Percentage of Participants With Sustained Pain Freedom From 2 to 24 Hours After Initial Dose
Time Frame: 2 to 24 hours after initial dose
|
Sustained pain freedom was defined as a pain freedom at 2 hours with no administration of either rescue medication or the second dose of study drug, and with no occurrence thereafter of a mild/moderate/severe headache up to 24 hours after dosing with study drug.
Participants were provided with an eDiary to rate headache severity on a scale from no pain to severe pain.
Determinable cases: participants for whom sustained pain relief from 2 to 24 hours status can be determined based on the observed headache severity at scheduled time points, use of rescue medication or optional second dose between 2 and 24 hours, and the answer to the headache recurrence question at 24 hours.
Number analyzed is the number of participants with assessment of determinable sustained pain freedom from 2 to 24 hours after initial dose.
|
2 to 24 hours after initial dose
|
|
Percentage of Participants With the Absence of Photophobia at 2 Hours After the Initial Dose
Time Frame: 2 hours after initial dose
|
Photophobia was defined as sensitivity to light, a migraine-associated symptom.
Participants were provided with an eDiary to record absence or presence photophobia.
Number analyzed is the number of participants with non-missing postdose photophobia assessment at or before 2 hours after initial dose.
|
2 hours after initial dose
|
|
Percentage of Participants With the Absence of Phonophobia at 2 Hours After the Initial Dose
Time Frame: 2 hours after initial dose
|
Phonophobia was defined as sensitivity to sound, a migraine-associated symptom.
Participants were provided with an eDiary to record absence or presence of phonophobia.
Number analyzed is the number of participants with non-missing postdose phonophobia assessment at or before 2 hours after initial dose.
|
2 hours after initial dose
|
|
Percentage of Participants With Absence of Nausea at 2 Hours After the Initial Dose
Time Frame: 2 hours after initial dose
|
Nausea was a migraine-associated symptom.
Participants were provided with an eDiary to record absence or presence of nausea.
