Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change From Baseline in the Frequency of Headache DaysBaseline, Week 108

Mean change from Baseline in frequency (number) of headache days during the 28 day period ending with Week 108. A headache day was defined as a day (00:00 to 23:59) for which the participant reported a headache in the patient diary with 4 or more continuous hours of headache. A negative change from Baseline indicates improvement.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change From Baseline in the Frequency of Headache DaysBaseline, Week 60

Mean change from Baseline in frequency (number) of headache days during the 28 day period ending with Week 60. A headache day was defined as a day (00:00 to 23:59) for which the participant reported a headache in the patient diary with 4 or more continuous hours of headache. A negative change from Baseline indicates improvement.

Change From Baseline in Headache Impact Test Questionnaire (HIT-6) Total ScoreBaseline, Week 60, Week 108

The HIT-6 measures the impact of headache and treatment on the participant's functional health and well-being in 6 domains: pain; role functioning (ability to carry out usual activities); social functioning; energy or fatigue; cognition; and emotional distress assessed over the prior 4-week period. The total possible score ranges from 36 (no impact) to 78 (worst impact). A negative change from Baseline indicates an improvement, and a positive change from Baseline indicates a worsening.
