Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: In a real-world population of adults with migraine, we would like to investigate whether 50 mg diclifenac potassium (soluable) is non-inferior to 75 mg rimegepant in terms of pain freedom at 2 hours after drug intake;Secondary Objective: Not applicable;Primary end point(s): Pain freedom at 2 hours ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 2 hours after having taken the study medication

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): Exploratory endpoints: - Absence of the most bothersome symptom at 2 hours - Relapse - Headache intensity - Rescue medication - Global evaluation - Presence or absence of associated symptoms (nausea, photophobia, phonophobia): at the time trial treatment is administered, at the time of assessment of the primary efficacy outcome (e.g. 2 hours) and at 4, 8, 12, 24- and 48-hours post-dose - Adverse events;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Exploratory endpoints: - Absence of the most bothersome symptom: 2 hours post-dose - Relapse: 48 hours post-dose - Headache intensity: every 30 minutes until 2 hours after treatment; hourly until 4 hours after treatment; at 12, 24 and 48 hours after treatment; and at the time of relapse - Rescue medication: 2 hours post-dose - Global evaluation; 48 hours post-dose - Presence or absence of associated symptoms (nausea, photophobia, phonophobia): - Adverse events: any time
