What is being measured

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

  1. Change From Baseline in Colonic Transit Time (CTT) at Week 2

    Least squares (LS) mean change from baseline was calculated using analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) model with categorical effects of treatment, pooled investigative site, Body mass index (BMI) category (<30kg/m2, ≥30 kg/m2) and baseline migraine frequency (<8 migraine headache days, ≥8 migraine headache days) as well as the continuous baseline CTT (hours). A negative change from baseline indicates a decrease in CTT and a positive change from baseline indicate an increase in CTT.

    Measured: Baseline, Week 2

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. Change From Baseline in Whole Gut Transit Time (WGTT) at Week 2

    Least squares (LS) mean change from baseline was calculated using ANCOVA model with categorical effects of treatment, pooled investigative site, Body mass index (BMI) category (<30kg/m2, ≥30 kg/m2) and baseline migraine frequency (<8 migraine headache days, ≥8 migraine headache days) as well as the continuous baseline WGTT (hours). A negative change from baseline indicates a decrease in WGTT and a positive change from baseline indicate an increase in WGTT.

    Measured: Baseline, Week 2

  2. Change From Baseline in Gastric Emptying Time (GET) at Week 2

    Least squares (LS) mean change from baseline was calculated using ANCOVA model with categorical effects of treatment, pooled investigative site, Body mass index (BMI) category (<30kg/m2, ≥30 kg/m2) and baseline migraine frequency (<8 migraine headache days, ≥8 migraine headache days) as well as the continuous baseline GET (hours). A negative change from baseline indicates a decrease in GET and a positive change from baseline indicate an increase in GET.

    Measured: Baseline, Week 2

  3. Change From Baseline in Small Intestine Bowel Transit Time (SBTT) at Week 2

    Least squares (LS) mean change from baseline was calculated using ANCOVA model with categorical effects of treatment, pooled investigative site, Body mass index (BMI) category (<30kg/m2, ≥30 kg/m2) and baseline migraine frequency (<8 migraine headache days, ≥8 migraine headache days) as well as the continuous baseline SBTT (hours). A negative change from baseline indicates a decrease in SBTT and a positive change from baseline indicate an increase in SBTT.

    Measured: Baseline, Week 2

  4. Change From Baseline in Combined Small and Large Intestine Bowel Transit Time (SLBTT) at Week 2

    Least squares (LS) mean change from baseline was calculated using ANCOVA model with categorical effects of treatment, pooled investigative site, Body mass index (BMI) category (<30kg/m2, ≥30 kg/m2) and baseline migraine frequency (<8 migraine headache days, ≥8 migraine headache days) as well as the continuous baseline SLBTT (hours). A negative change from baseline indicates a decrease in SLBTT and a positive change from baseline indicate an increase in SLBTT.

    Measured: Baseline, Week 2

  5. Change From Baseline in Motility Index by Quartile in the Colon at Week 2

    Motility index (MI) is a calculated outcome, based on the formula: In (Number of contractions x Σpressure amplitudes +1) where ln = natural logorithm, Σ = Sum. Least squares (LS) mean change from baseline was calculated using ANCOVA model with categorical effects of treatment, pooled investigative site, Body mass index (BMI) category (<30kg/m2, ≥30 kg/m2) and baseline migraine frequency (<8 migraine headache days, ≥8 migraine headache days) as well as the continuous baseline MI. A negative change from baseline indicates a decrease in colonic contractions or pressure or both, and a positive change from baseline indicates an increase in colonic contractions or pressure or both.

    Measured: Baseline, Week 2

  6. Change From Baseline in Gastrointestinal (GI) Symptom Rating Scale (GSRS) at Weeks 2 and 4

    GSRS is a validated 15-item questionnaire that evaluates the common symptoms of GI disorders. It has five subscales: abdominal pain (abdominal pain, hunger pains, nausea), reflux (heartburn, acid reflux), indigestion (rumbling, bloating, belching, and increased flatus/breaking wind), constipation (constipation, hard stools, and sensation of not completely emptying the bowels), and diarrhea (diarrhea, loose stools, urgent need to have a bowel movement) syndromes. Subscale scores range from 1 to 7. Higher scores indicate greater severity of symptoms. LS mean change from baseline was calculated using mixed effects model for repeated measures (MMRM) with fixed categorical effects of treatment, pooled investigative site, BMI category (<30kg/m2, ≥30 kg/m2), baseline migraine frequency (<8 migraine headache days, ≥8 migraine headache days), week, and treatment-by-week interaction, as well as the continuous fixed covariates of baseline value and baseline-by-week interaction.

    Measured: Baseline, Week 2, Week 4

  7. Change From Baseline in Bristol Stool Form Scale (BSFS) at Weeks 2 and 4

    The BSFS is a 7-point ordinal scale which classifies the type of bowel movement based on the appearance of stool. Score 1, 2 indicate constipation (harder stools); 6, 7 indicate diarrhea (loose/liquid stools ); 3 to 5 are considered normal. A better score would trend toward the middle of the scale (3 to 5), while scores at either end of the scale correspond to worse outcomes. LS mean change from baseline was calculated using mixed effects model for repeated measures (MMRM) with fixed categorical effects of treatment, pooled investigative site, BMI category (<30kg/m2, ≥30 kg/m2), baseline migraine frequency (<8 migraine headache days, ≥8 migraine headache days), week, and treatment-by-week interaction, as well as the continuous fixed covariates of baseline value and baseline-by-week interaction.

    Measured: Baseline, Week 2, Week 4

  8. Change From Baseline in the Weekly Spontaneous Bowel Movements (SBMs) at Weeks 2 and 4

    Weekly SBM is the number of spontaneous (un-aided by laxatives, enemas, or suppositories) bowel movements that a participant has had in the past 7 days. LS mean change from baseline was calculated using mixed effects model for repeated measures (MMRM) with fixed categorical effects of treatment, pooled investigative site, BMI category (<30kg/m2, ≥30 kg/m2), baseline migraine frequency (<8 migraine headache days, ≥8 migraine headache days), week, and treatment-by-week interaction, as well as the continuous fixed covariates of baseline value and baseline-by-week interaction. A negative change from baseline indicates a decrease in weekly SBMs, and a positive change from baseline indicates an increase in weekly SBMs.

    Measured: Baseline, Week 2, Week 4

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Galcanezumab and Erenumab in people with Migraine, run by Eli Lilly and Company at 3 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 3 inclusion and 9 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 22 Mar 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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 22 Mar 2022). 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?

Change From Baseline in Colonic Transit Time (CTT) at Week 2 (time frame: Baseline, Week 2). 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 22 Mar 2022.
