Brief Summary

A migraine is a headache with severe throbbing pain or a pulsating sensation, usually on one side of the head. It is often accompanied by feeling or being sick and a sensitivity to bright lights and sound. Migraines are caused by a series of events when the brain gets stimulated or activated, which causes the release of chemicals that cause pain. IPN10200 is a medication that stops the release of these chemical messengers.

Participants with episodic migraine (EM) or chronic migraine (CM) will be included in both Step 1 and Step 2. "Headache days" are when participants experience headaches that meet the criteria for a migraine or a headache without the additional migraine-specific symptoms. "Migraine days" occur when the headache displays clear migraine characteristics.

This study aims to determine:

* The safety and efficacy of injecting IPN10200 directly into the muscles of the head and neck to prevent EM and CM,

* The right amount (dose) of IPN10200 to inject at each point,

* The total amount (dose) of IPN10200 that provides the best balance between safety and efficacy preventing migraines.

Participants will need to complete a daily electronic migraine Diary (eDiary) and questionnaires throughout the study. The total study duration for a participant will be up to 44 weeks.

Detailed Description

The study will consist of 3 periods:

1. A 'screening period' to assess whether the participant can take part in the study.

2. Step 1 is divided in two cohorts. The study will assess sequentially the safety of two doses of IPN10200, a lower dose in the cohort 1 and a higher dose in cohort 2. Participants will be administered with the study drug or placebo. The treatment is injected in muscles of the head, face and neck. The safety of participants is monitored throughout the 36 weeks at each cohort.

3. Step 2: In this step, new eligible participants will be divided into two groups based on their diagnosis (EM or CM). These groups will then be randomly assigned to one of three intervention groups: Dose A, Dose B, or a placebo. The intervention will be given in a series of injections in muscles of the head, face and neck. Participants will be monitored for both efficacy and safety until they complete the Week 36 visit (the end of study).
