Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

The primary efficacy endpoint was 2-h headache response after taking the first dose of study medication for the first attack
18 weeks

Subjects recorded the intensity of each migraine headache in the diary based on a 4-point scale: 0, pain absent; 1, mild pain; 2, moderate pain; 3, severe pain. A response was considered a change from severe or moderate pain to mild or absent at various time points after dosing with study medication

Headache response at 1 hour after the first dose for the first attack.
1 hour

Headache response was defined as improvement from a severe or moderate headache at baseline to either a mild or absent headache post-dose.

Headache response at 1 hour after treatment of the first attack.
1 hour

Headache response was defined as improvement from a severe or moderate headache at baseline to either a mild or absent headache post-dose.

Headache responder rate at two hours after the first dose for the first attack.
2 hours

A headache response was defined as a subject having improvement in headache severity from grade 2 or 3 at baseline to 0 or 1 at two hours post-dose.

Secondary Endpoints

Sustained response was defined as achieving a headache response within 2 h post dose, with no recurrence or rescue medication needed
18 weeks
Pain-free response at 1 hour after the first dose for the first attack.

Interventions

NameTypeDescription
PlaceboDRUGSubjects were randomized to one of the 3 treatment groups (eletriptan 40 mg, eletriptan 80 mg, or placebo) in a 2:2:1 ratio and were given sufficient medication to treat 3 migraine attacks (including a second dose for each attack for recurrence) within 18 weeks of the initial visit. Subjects were instructed to treat a moderate to severe migraine within 6 hours of the onset of pain provided the headache was not decreasing in severity, the aura phase had ended and they had taken no analgesic or antiemetic within 6 hours. Efficacy data was collected in a diary. Subjects were allowed to take rescue medication if they had no response to the study medication within 4 hours of onset.
