Brief Summary:
This study is being conducted to evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of rimegepant in a population of adults that are unsuitable for triptan medications due to a previous intolerance, lack of efficacy, or contraindication (including a history of clinically-relevant cardiovascular disease).

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Migraine Drug: Rimegepant Drug: Placebo Phase 4

Detailed Description:
This study is being conducted to evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of rimegepant in a population of adults that are unsuitable for triptan medications due to a previous intolerance, lack of efficacy, or contraindication (including a history of clinically-relevant cardiovascular disease). Rimegepant will be further evaluated in this population with as needed use in a 12-week, open-label extension study.

Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: Rimegepant

Rimegepant - Double-blind (DB) Phase: One dose of rimegepant 75 mg Oral Disintegrating Tablet (ODT)

Rimegepant/Rimegepant - Open-label Extension (OLE) Phase: participants receive one dose rimegepant 75 mg ODT as needed for a qualifying acute migraine. A qualifying migraine is an attack of moderate or severe headache pain intensity. Migraine headache pain intensity will be measured on a 4-point numeric rating scale (0=none, 1=mild, 2=moderate, 3=severe)

Drug: Rimegepant
DB Phase: Rimegepant 75 mg Orally Disintegrating Tablet (ODT)

Drug: Rimegepant
OLE Phase: Rimegepant 75 mg ODT in association with each of the first 5 qualifying migraines

Placebo Comparator: Placebo

Placebo - Double-blind (DB) Phase: One dose of matching placebo

Placebo/Rimegepant - Open-label Extension (OLE) Phase: participants receive one dose rimegepant 75 mg ODT for a qualifying migraine

Drug: Placebo
DB Phase: matching placebo

Drug: Rimegepant
OLE Phase: Rimegepant 75 mg ODT in association with each of the first 5 qualifying migraines




Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Compare the efficacy of rimegepant with placebo in the acute treatment of migraine, as measured by migraine headache pain relief at 2-hours post-dose during the Double-Blind Treatment (DBT) Phase. [ Time Frame: 2 hours post-dose ]
    Migraine headache pain relief will be assessed using the percentage of subjects with a headache pain intensity of none or mild. Migraine headache pain intensity will be measured on a 4-point numeric rating scale (0=none, 1=mild, 2=moderate, 3=severe).

Ages Eligible for Study:   18 Years and older   (Adult, Older Adult)
Sexes Eligible for Study:   All
Accepts Healthy Volunteers:   No
Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Migraine attacks present for more than 1 year with the age of onset prior to 50 years of age.
  • Migraine attacks, on average, lasting about 4 - 72 hours if untreated.
  • 4 to 14 migraine days per month on average across the 3 months prior to the Screening Visit (month is defined as 28 days for the purpose of this protocol).
  • Less than 15 headache days (migraine or non-migraine) per month in each of the 3 months prior to the Screening Visit and throughout the Screening Phase.
  • Subjects must be able to distinguish migraine attacks from tension/cluster headaches.
  • Subjects on prophylactic migraine medication (excluding CGRP antagonists) are permitted to remain on therapy if they have been on a stable dose for at least 3 months (12 weeks) prior to the Screening Visit, and if the dose is not expected to change during the course of the study.
  • Triptan unsuitable

Exclusion Criteria:

-Target Disease Exclusion:

  1. History of cluster headache, basilar migraine, or hemiplegic migraine
  2. Current medication overuse headaches
  3. Headaches occurring 15 or more days per month (migraine or non-migraine) in any of the 3 months prior to the Screening Visit
  4. Active chronic pain syndrome (such as fibromyalgia, chronic pelvic pain, complex regional pain syndrome [CRPS])
  5. Other pain syndromes (including trigeminal neuralgia), dementia, or significant neurological disorders (other than migraine) that, in the Investigator's opinion, interfere with study assessments of safety or efficacy
