Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change From Baseline in Mean Monthly Hours of at Least Moderate Headache Pain Intensity Over Months 1, 2, and 3Baseline, Month 1, Month 2, and Month 3

At least moderate headache pain intensity was defined as headache pain intensity reported as 'Moderate' or 'Severe' based on the 3-level headache pain intensity scale. Worst or peak pain intensity during a headache was collected using the e-diary in 3-levels (mild, moderate or severe). The duration of headaches with at least moderate pain intensity was collected. A negative change from baseline indicates a reduction in mean monthly hours of at least moderate headache pain intensity. Change from baseline in mean monthly measurement is the arithmetic mean of the monthly change from baseline values for the months considered with observed data, if there was at least one observed monthly value.

The least squares mean (LSM) estimates of change from baseline in reported headache pain intensity utilized a linear mixed model which included treatment, visit, treatment-by-visit interaction, and baseline value as covariates and assumed a first-order auto regression covariance structure.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change From Baseline in Mean Monthly Physical Function Domain Score as Measured by the Migraine Functional Impact Questionnaire (MFIQ) Over Months 1, 2, and 3Baseline, Month 1, Month 2, and Month 3

The MFIQ is a self-administered 26-item instrument measuring the impact of migraine on broader functioning including on Physical Functioning (5 items). Participants responded to items using a 5-point scale assigned scores from 1 to 5, with 5 representing the greatest burden. Each domain score was calculated as the sum of the item responses and rescaled to a 0 to 100 scale, with higher scores representing greater burden. The recall period was the past 7 days. A negative change from baseline indicates an improvement in burden. Change from baseline in mean monthly scores is the arithmetic mean of the monthly change from baseline values for the months considered with observed data, if there was at least one observed monthly value.

The LSM estimates utilized a linear mixed model which included treatment, visit, treatment-by-visit interaction, and baseline value as covariates and assumed a first-order auto regression covariance structure.

Change From Baseline in Mean Monthly Usual Activities Domain Score as Measured by the MFIQ Over Months 1, 2, and 3Baseline, Month 1, Month 2, and Month 3

The MFIQ is a self-administered 26-item instrument measuring the impact of migraine on broader functioning including Impact on Usual Activities (10 items). Participants responded to items using a 5-point scale assigned scores from 1 to 5, with 5 representing the greatest burden. Each domain score was calculated as the sum of the item responses and rescaled to a 0 to 100 scale, with higher scores representing greater burden. The recall period was the previous 7 days. A negative change from baseline indicates an improvement in burden. Change from baseline in mean monthly scores is the arithmetic mean of the monthly change from baseline values for the months considered with observed data, if there was at least one observed monthly value.

The LSM estimates utilized a linear mixed model which included treatment, visit, treatment-by-visit interaction, and baseline value as covariates and assumed a first-order auto regression covariance structure.

Change From Baseline in Mean Monthly Emotional Functioning Domain Score as Measured by the MFIQ Over Months 1, 2, and 3Baseline, Month 1, Month 2, and Month 3

The MFIQ is a self-administered 26-item instrument measuring the impact of migraine on broader functioning including Impact on Emotional Functioning (5 items). Participants responded to items using a 5-point scale assigned scores from 1 to 5, with 5 representing the greatest burden. Each domain score was calculated as the sum of the item responses and rescaled to a 0 to 100 scale, with higher scores representing greater burden. The recall period was the previous 7 days. A negative change from baseline indicates an improvement in burden. Change from baseline in mean monthly scores is the arithmetic mean of the monthly change from baseline values for the months considered with observed data, if there was at least one observed monthly value.

Change From Baseline in Mean Monthly Social Functioning Domain Score as Measured by the MFIQ Over Months 1, 2, and 3Baseline, Month 1, Month 2, and Month 3

The MFIQ is a self-administered 26-item instrument measuring the impact of migraine on broader functioning including Impact on Social Functioning (5 items). Participants responded to items using a 5-point scale assigned scores from 1 to 5, with 5 representing the greatest burden. Each domain score was calculated as the sum of the item responses and rescaled to a 0 to 100 scale, with higher scores representing greater burden. The recall period was the previous 7 days. A negative change from baseline indicates an improvement in burden. Change from baseline in mean monthly scores is the arithmetic mean of the monthly change from baseline values for the months considered with observed data, if there was at least one observed monthly value.

Change From Baseline in Mean Monthly Average Duration of at Least Moderate Headache Pain Intensity in Migraine Attacks Occurring Over Months 1, 2, and 3Baseline, Month 1, Month 2, and Month 3

At least moderate headache pain intensity was defined as headache pain intensity reported as 'Moderate' or 'Severe' based on the 3-level headache pain intensity scale. Worst or peak pain intensity during a headache was collected using the e-diary in 3-levels (mild, moderate or severe). The duration of headaches with at least moderate pain intensity during a migraine attack was collected. A negative change from baseline indicates a reduction in mean monthly average duration of at least moderate headache pain intensity during a migraine attack. Change from baseline in mean monthly measurement is the arithmetic mean of the monthly change from baseline values for the months considered with observed data, if there was at least one observed monthly value.

The LSM estimates utilized a linear mixed model which included treatment, visit, treatment-by-visit interaction, and baseline value as covariates and assumed a first-order auto regression covariance structure.

Change From Baseline in Mean Monthly Average Peak Migraine Pain Intensity as Assessed by the 11-point Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) Over Months 1, 2, and 3Baseline, Month 1, Month 2, and Month 3

The NRS assesses headache pain intensity ranging from 0 to 10 with a higher score indicating more severe pain. Participants recorded the pain intensity using the e-diary at the headache end-time or in an evening diary entry on a daily basis for an ongoing headache. A negative change from baseline indicates an improvement in pain intensity. Change from baseline in mean monthly scores is the arithmetic mean of the monthly change from baseline values for the months considered with observed data, if there was at least one observed monthly value.

The LSM estimates utilized a linear mixed model which included treatment, visit, treatment-by-visit interaction, and baseline value as covariates and assumed a first-order auto regression covariance structure.
