Trial Outcomes & Findings for MLD10 in the Prevention of Migraine in Adults (NCT NCT02322333)

NCT ID: NCT02322333

Last Updated: 2020-10-09

Results Overview

Comparison of the mean change from baseline in the frequency of migraine headache days per 28-day period ending with the cessation of treatment period month 3 in subjects treated with MLD10 versus placebo. A migraine headache day will be defined as a calendar day (00:00 to 23:59) with 4 or more hours of migraine headache, fulfilling International Classification of Headache Disorders-3beta criteria, and/or any headache of any duration with the use of migraine-specific acute medications(s) (i.e. ergot alkaloids, ergot combinations, opioids, triptans, combination analgesics \[simple analgesics combined with opioids or barbiturate with or without caffeine\]).

MLD10
Subjects randomized to MLD10 will be dispensed a 28 day supply of magnesium L-lactate dehydrate for daily treatment. A total of 120 caplets will be given each time at Visit 2, 3, and 4. Additional overage will be given to account for the 3 day window. Subjects will be instructed to take two caplets of study medication BID (twice a day) at about the same time each day. Subjects will be instructed regarding storage requirements and will be asked to return all used/partially used/unused medication containers at the next office visit. MLD10
Placebo
Subjects randomized to placebo will be dispensed a 28 day supply of matching placebo for daily treatment. A total of 120 caplets will be given each time at Visit 2, 3, and 4. Additional overage will be given to account for the 3 day window. Subjects will be instructed to take two caplets of study medication BID (twice a day) at about the same time each day. Subjects will be instructed regarding storage requirements and will be asked to return all used/partially used/unused medication containers at the next office visit. Placebo

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Day 1(Screening) - Day 116 (Visit 5 End of Study)

Population: The modified intent-to-treat (mITT) population included all randomized subjects who received at least one dose of study drug and obtained at least one endpoint measurement after treating. The mITT population excluded 7 subjects from the MLD10 arm and 6 participants from the Placebo arm. Total mITT analysis population: MLD10 = 73, Placebo = 71.

Change from Visit 2 to Visit 5 in the total MIDAS score in subjects treated with MLD10 versus placebo. The MIDAS test determines how severely migraines affect daily functioning. The responses of a variety of questions will be scored according to the questionnaire's scoring guide. A total score will be calculated ranging from 0-93. A score of 0-5 indicates little or no disability, 6-10 mild disability, 11-20, moderate disability, 21+ severe disability.
