Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of three different doses of ADX10059 compared with placebo when administered daily for 12 weeks to prevent migraine in patients with a history of moderate or severe migraine;Primary end point(s): Primary efficacy endpoint: The number of migraine headache days compared to baseline at weeks 9-12 of the treatment period will be evaluated. The baseline is defined as 28 to 30 days prior to randomisation (day -30 to -28);Secondary Objective: To evaluate the effects of three different doses of ADX10059 compared with placebo on: o frequency of migraine attacks o severity of migraine attacks o duration of migraine attacks o functional impairment o occurrence of aura o requirement for rescue medication o Headache Impact Test-6 (HIT-6) o patient Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) o patient and Investigator global assessment of study medication To evaluate the safety and tolerability in patients after repeated dosing with ADX10059
