Study Overview

Brief Summary

A study to evaluate the effect of erenumab compared to placebo on the change from baseline in monthly migraine days in participants with episodic migraine.

Detailed Description

The study is composed of an initial screening phase (up to 3 weeks), a 4-week baseline phase, a 12-week double-blind treatment phase (DBTP), an open-label treatment phase (OLTP) for up to 256 weeks, and an 8-week safety follow-up (12 weeks after the last dose of investigational product [IP]).

In the DBTP participants were to be randomized in a 3:2:2:2 ratio to placebo, erenumab 7 mg, erenumab 21 mg, or erenumab 70 mg.

During the open-label treatment phase, participants were to receive erenumab 70 mg QM from week 12 to week 264. After implementation of Protocol Amendment 3 (07 April 2016), participants remaining in the OLTP increased their dose to erenumab 140 mg QM up to week 264. The safety follow-up increased from an 8-week safety follow-up to a 12-week safety follow-up (16 weeks after the last dose of investigational product).

During the OLTP participants enrolled at sites in the United States could enroll in an optional clinical home use (CHU) substudy, per a country-specific protocol amendment dated 20 June 2016. Participants in the CHU substudy were to be randomized 1:1 into 1 of 2 treatment groups: erenumab 140 mg using a prefilled syringe or erenumab 140 mg using an autoinjector/pen. Day 1 of the CHU substudy corresponded with any OLTP study visit up through Week 256, as long as the participant had received at least 2 doses of erenumab 140 mg. During the CHU substudy, participants initially self-administered IP under site supervision on substudy day 1, and then self-administered IP at home on substudy days 29 and 57.

Arms & Interventions

Placebo

Placebo Comparator

Participants received placebo on day 1 and at weeks 4 and 8 by subcutaneous injection during the double-blind treatment phase.

In the open-label treatment phase participants received 70 mg erenumab QM from week 12 to week 264 (last dose). After Protocol Amendment 3, participants still on study had their dose increased to 140 mg QM.

Intervention: Erenumab (Drug)

Placebo

Placebo Comparator

Participants received placebo on day 1 and at weeks 4 and 8 by subcutaneous injection during the double-blind treatment phase.

In the open-label treatment phase participants received 70 mg erenumab QM from week 12 to week 264 (last dose). After Protocol Amendment 3, participants still on study had their dose increased to 140 mg QM.

Intervention: Placebo (Drug)

Erenumab 7 mg QM

Experimental

Participants received erenumab 7 mg on day 1 and at weeks 4 and 8 by subcutaneous injection during the double-blind treatment phase.

In the open-label treatment phase participants received 70 mg erenumab QM from week 12 to week 264 (last dose). After Protocol Amendment 3, participants still on study had their dose increased to 140 mg QM.

Intervention: Erenumab (Drug)

Erenumab 21 mg QM

Experimental

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

CHU Substudy: Number of Participants Who Self-administered a Full Dose, Partial Dose, or No Dose of Erenumab

Time Frame: CHU substudy day 29 (week 4) and day 57 (week 8)

To assess participants ability to administer a full dose of erenumab in home-use at day 29 (week 4) and day 57 (week 8), site staff called participants and asked whether the participant administered a full, partial, or no dose of erenumab. A full dose means that the entire volume of both prefilled syringes or autoinjector/pens were injected. Discontinued prior to dosing day indicates participants who had discontinued the investigational product and did not attempt to self-administer on day 29 or 57.

Change From Baseline in Monthly Migraine Days at Week 12

Time Frame: 4-week baseline phase and the last 4 weeks of the 12-week double-blind treatment phase

A migraine day was any calendar day in which the participant experienced a qualified migraine headache (onset, continuation, or recurrence of the migraine headache). A qualified migraine headache was defined as a migraine with or without aura. The change from baseline in monthly migraine days was calculated as the number of migraine days during the last 4 weeks of the 12-week double-blind treatment phase - the number of migraine days during the 4-week baseline phase.

Secondary Outcomes

  • CHU Substudy: Number of Participants With Treatment-emergent Adverse Events During the CHU Substudy(From first dose in the CHU substudy to end of substudy (up to 12 weeks))
  • Number of Participants Who Developed Anti-erenumab Antibodies During the Double-blind Treatment Phase(12 weeks)
  • Number of Participants With Treatment-emergent Adverse Events in the Open-label Treatment Phase(From first dose in the open-label treatment phase up to 12 weeks (participants receiving 70 mg only) or 16 weeks (participants with dose increased to 140 mg) after the last dose; a maximum of 268 weeks.)
  • Number of Participants Who Developed Anti-erenumab Antibodies During the Open-label Treatment Phase(From week 12 up to 12 weeks (participants receiving 70 mg only) or 16 weeks (participants with dose increased to 140 mg) after the last dose; maximum 268 weeks.)
  • Change From Baseline in Monthly Migraine Attacks at Week 12(4-week baseline phase and the last 4 weeks of the 12-week double-blind treatment phase)
  • Number of Participants With Treatment-emergent Adverse Events in the Double-blind Treatment Phase(From first dose of study drug in the double-blind treatment phase until the first dose of study drug in the open-label treatment phase (12 weeks) or up to 12 weeks after last dose for participants who did not enter the open-label treatment phase.)
  • Percentage of Participants With at Least a 50% Reduction From Baseline in Monthly Migraine Days at Week 12(4-week baseline phase and the last 4 weeks of the 12-week double-blind treatment phase)
