Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

A Change in the Frequency of Cluster Headache Attacks Per Week
4 weeks

The primary endpoint is the reduction in mean number of CH attacks per week. The number of CH attacks will be calculated as the sum of all attacks over the days in the run-in period and divided by the number of weeks, respectively for the last 14 days of treatment during the randomised phase. The reduction will then be the number of CH attacks during treatment period (last 14 days of the randomized treatment period) - number of CH attacks during run-in.

Secondary Endpoints

Pain Relief of Headache Attacks
baseline (2 weeks) and random period(last 2 weeks)
Adverse Events

EQ-5D-3L (EuroQoL 5 Questions and 3 Answering Levels) and a VAS (Visual Analogue Scale)
