Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

The Change of Migraine Days.

The change of migraine days per 4 weeks during the 12-week treatment period mpared with baseline.Baseline refers to the frequency of migraine attacks within the 28 days prior to randomization (baseline period, i.e., D-28 to D-1). Headache data were captured through an electronic diary.

Time frame
12-week treatment period(Day 1-Day 84)

Secondary outcomes

1

The Change of Headache Attack Frequency

The change of headache attack frequency per 4 weeks during the 12-week treatment period compared with baseline. Headache data were captured through an electronic diary.

Time frame
12-week treatment period(Day 1-Day 84)
2

The Change of Moderate / Severe Headache Days

The change of days with moderate / severe headache per 4 weeks during the 12-week treatment period compared with baseline. Headache data were captured through an electronic diary.

Time frame
12-week treatment period(Day 1-Day 84)
3

The Responder Rate of at Least 50%, 75% and 100% Reduction of Migraine Days.

The Responder Rate of at Least 50%, 75% and 100% Reduction of Migraine Days is compared with the baseline per 4 weeks during the 12-week treatment period. Headache data were captured through an electronic diary.

Time frame
12-week treatment period(Day 1-Day 84)
4

The Change of Frequency of Medications Use

The Change of Frequency of Medications Use \[Time Frame: 12-week treatment period(Day 1-Day 84)\] The change of frequency of medications for the acute migraine per 4 weeks during the 12-week treatment period compared with baseline.
