Change From Baseline in Mean Monthly Migraine Days (Migraine/Probable Migraine Headache Days) Across the 12-Week Treatment PeriodBaseline (First 28 Days of Screening/Baseline Period) to Week 12Participants recorded daily duration of migraine in a diary. A migraine day was any calendar day on which the participant experienced a migraine headache qualified by duration and acute symptomatic medication use. The 4-week migraine days was defined as the total number of reported migraine days in diary divided by total number of days with diary records during each 4- week period and multiplied by 28. Each 4-week period was averaged. Negative change from Baseline indicates improvement.

Change From Baseline in Mean Monthly Migraine Days (Migraine/Probable Migraine Headache Days) Across the 12-Week Treatment Period

Participants recorded daily duration of migraine in a diary. A migraine day was any calendar day on which the participant experienced a migraine headache qualified by duration and acute symptomatic medication use. The 4-week migraine days was defined as the total number of reported migraine days in diary divided by total number of days with diary records during each 4- week period and multiplied by 28. Each 4-week period was averaged. Negative change from Baseline indicates improvement.

Time frame: Baseline (First 28 Days of Screening/Baseline Period) to Week 12

Population: MITT Population included all randomized participants who received at least 1 dose of study treatment, had an evaluable baseline period of diary data, and had at least 1 evaluable post-baseline 4-week (Weeks 1-4, 5-8, and 9-12) of diary data.
