Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Change from baseline in the mean number of migraine days per month as measured over the 12-week double-blind phase of the study in adolescents with episodic migraine [3 months (12 weeks)]
Reduction from baseline in mean number of migraine days per month
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Achievement of at least a 50% reduction from baseline in mean monthly migraine days over the course of the double-blind phase in adolescents with episodic migraine [3 months (12 weeks)]
- Change from baseline in the mean number of migraine days per month in the first 4 weeks (Weeks 1 through 4) of the double-blind treatment phase in adolescents with episodic migraine. [Weeks 1 through 4 of treatment]
- The mean change from baseline in the Pediatric Quality of Life (PedsQL™) total score at Week 12 of the double-blind treatment phase in adolescents with episodic migraine. [Total score at week 12]
- Change from baseline in the mean number of migraine days per month over the entire course of the double-blind treatment phase in children and children and adolescents combined with episodic migraine. [3 months (12 weeks)]
- Change from baseline on the proportion of subjects that have at least a 50% reduction in the mean number of moderate to severe migraine days per month. [3 months (12 weeks)]
Measured over the entire course of the double-blind treatment phase in children and children and adolescents combined with episodic migraine.
- Compare the use of acute migraine-specific medications (triptans) based on the change from baseline in monthly acute migraine specific medication days. [3 months (12 weeks)]
Measured in each month and over the course of the entire double-blind treatment phase in adolescents, children and adolescents and children combined.
- Evaluate the safety and tolerability of rimegepant as a preventative treatment for migraine in children and adolescents. [72 Weeks]
This will be evaluated by the number of subjects with treatment related adverse events by severity.
- Evaluate the frequency of hepatic-related adverse events in subjects treated with rimegepant. [72 Weeks]
Measured by discontinuations in treated subjects due to elevated liver function tests.
