Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 65 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Patients with a history of acute migraine (using International Classification of Headache Disorders [ICHD] criteria, second edition);
  • Patients who, in the opinion of the investigator, are willing and able to:
  • Return to the study site within 72 hours of the first use of study medication,
  • Record each migraine and each instance of the use of study medication and rescue medication in a patient diary for the duration of the study;
  • Patients who can use the nasal spray device correctly after instruction.

Who cannot join

  • Patients on onabotulinumtoxinA (Botox®) or other botulinum toxin treatment; or history of receiving such treatment 180 days prior to screening;
  • Patients with a history of stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA);
  • Patients with a history of migralepsy or a concurrent diagnosis of seizure disorder;
  • Patients who cannot differentiate between a migraine headache and a tension-type or cluster headache;
  • Patients with ischemic coronary artery disease (CAD; ie, angina pectoris, history of myocardial infarction or documented silent ischemia or coronary artery vasospasm, including Prinzmetal's angina);

  • Patients with uncontrolled hypertension (screening systolic/diastolic blood pressure > 140/90 mmHg);
  • Patients with peripheral vascular disease or ischemic bowel disease;
  • Patients taking any medications or with illnesses likely to affect the physiology of the nasal mucosa (ie, patients with nasal septum surgery, chronic sinusitis, or chronic nasal rhinitis). (Note: Patients who have acute conditions such as acute sinusitis may be rescreened 14 days after resolution of acute sinusitis.);
  • Patients with any abnormal nasal physiology or pathology which, in the opinion of the investigator, would not allow the objectives of the study to be accomplished;
  • Patients with known intolerance to nasal sprays;
  • Patients with severe renal impairment (defined as serum creatinine > 2 mg/dL);
  • Patients with serum total bilirubin > 2.0 mg/dL;
  • Patients with serum aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), or alkaline phosphatase > 2.5 times the upper limit of normal (ULN);
  • Patients with a history of alcohol or substance abuse (including marijuana and medical marijuana) within 1 year that would compromise data collection;
  • Patients with a positive urine drug screen for illicit drugs or for prescription drugs not explained by stated concomitant medications. (Positive drug screen for marijuana is exclusionary.):
  • Patients consuming opioids for the treatment of migraine or using opioids or barbiturates temporarily for a legitimate medical cause may participate as long as they do not meet the MOH criteria.
  • Benzodiazepines are allowed if used for legitimate medical use.
  • Chronic use of amphetamines to treat attention deficit disorder (ADD) or attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and related disorders is allowed as long as the regimen has been stable for at least 3 months prior to screening and is expected to remain stable throughout the study.
  • Note: For the above-mentioned conditions, the site must obtain medical monitor approval.
  • Patients with a history of or current neurological or psychiatric impairment, or cognitive dysfunction that, in the opinion of the investigator, would compromise data collection;
  • Patients who have received treatment with an investigational drug or device within 4 weeks of the screening visit or participated in a central nervous system clinical trial in the 3 months prior to screening;
  • Patients who test positive for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), or hepatitis C virus (HCV) antibody serology testing.
  • Patients with any other medical condition that, in the judgment of the investigator or medical monitor, would confound the objectives of the study (eg, cancer history [except basal cell carcinoma], systemic lupus erythematosus)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing DFN-02 in people with Acute Migraine, run by Dr. Reddy's Laboratories Limited at 24 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 24 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 9 Mar 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 24 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 28 Aug 2017). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Number of Participants With Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (time frame: 6 months). 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 NCT02279082, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 9 Mar 2018.
