What is being measured

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

  1. Change from Baseline in the Frequency of Headache Days during 28-Day Period Ending with Week 24

    Mean change from Baseline (28-days prior to first treatment) in frequency (number) of headache days during the 28-day period ending with Week 24. A headache day was defined as a calendar day [00:00 to 23:59] for which the participant reported ≥ 4 continuous hours of headache per patient diary.

    Measured: Baseline, Week 24

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Change from Baseline in the Frequency of Headache Days during 28-Day Period

    Mean change from Baseline (28-days prior to first treatment) in frequency (number) of headache days during the 28-day period ending with Weeks 4, 8, 12, 16 and 20. A headache day was defined as a calendar day [00:00 to 23:59] for which the participant reported ≥ 4 continuous hours of headache per patient diary.

    Measured: Baseline, Weeks 4, 8, 12, 16 and 20

  2. Change from Baseline in the Frequency of Migraine/Probable Migraine Days during 28-Day Period

    Mean change from Baseline (28-days prior to first treatment) in frequency (number) of migraine or probable migraine episodes during the 28-day period ending with Weeks 4, 8, 12, 16, 20 and 24. A Migraine or Probable Migraine day was defined as a calendar day [00:00 to 23:59] for which the patient reported ≥ 4 continuous hours of a migraine or probable migraine episode as per the patient diary.

    Measured: Baseline, Weeks 4, 8, 12, 16, 20 and 24.

  3. Change from Baseline in the Number of Moderate/Severe Headache Days during 28-Day Period

    Mean change from Baseline (28-days prior to first treatment) in frequency (number) of headache days during the 28 day period ending with Weeks 4, 8, 12, 16, 20 and 24. A moderate/severe headache day is defined as a day (00:00 to 23:59) when a participant reported 4 or more continuous hours of headache and reported a maximum severity of moderate or severe per patient diary among all headache episodes that occurred on that day.

    Measured: Baseline, Weeks 4, 8, 12, 16, 20 and 24

  4. Change from Baseline in Total Cumulative Hours of Headache Days during 28-Day Period

    Mean change from Baseline (28-days prior to first treatment) in the total cumulative hours of headache days during the 28-day period ending with Weeks 4, 8, 12, 16, 20 and 24. A headache day is defined as a day (00:00 to 23:59) with 4 or more continuous hours of headache per patient diary.

    Measured: Baseline, Weeks 4, 8, 12, 16, 20 and 24

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing botulinum toxin Type A in people with Migraine Disorders, run by Allergan.

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 3 inclusion and 11 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Jul 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Change from Baseline in the Frequency of Headache Days during 28-Day Period Ending with Week 24 (time frame: Baseline, Week 24). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 14 Jul 2017.
