About this study

Official title: A Phase 3 Open-Label Study to Assess Subcutaneous Self-Injection With Sumatriptan Succinate Using an Auto-injector During a Single Migraine Attack

The purpose of this research study is to evaluate an investigational auto-injector system for delivering sumatriptan under the skin for a single migraine attack.

The study could take approximately 5 weeks and will include about 3 office visits to the study doctor, the patient will be contacted every 2 weeks until the patient experiences a migraine and uses the auto-injector. The last visit will be done by a telephone follow-up call.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • "Investigational"Auto-injector (sumatriptan succinate)Drug

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Successful administration and acceptability of self-injection of sumatriptan under the skin using an investigational auto-injector will be assessed by use of patient-completed scales and a short questionnaire.

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. • Comparison of pain scores pre-dose and 2 hours post-dose. • Preference of investigational auto-injector experience compared to subject's previous self-administration of sumatriptan.

A Phase 3 study testing "Investigational"Auto-injector (sumatriptan succinate) in people with Migraine, run by Pfizer at 10 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 10 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 Jun 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 10 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Successful administration and acceptability of self-injection of sumatriptan under the skin using an investigational auto-injector will be assessed by use of patient-completed scales and a short questionnaire.. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00510419, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 8 Jun 2012.
