Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this Phase 2 study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of SC MEDI0618 compared to placebo in participants with episodic migraine.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This Phase 2, randomised, multicentre, parallel-group treatment, double-blind, placebo -controlled study is designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of subcutaneous (SC) MEDI0618 in participants with episodic migraine.

The study includes a cohort of participants who have a history of unsuccessful treatment with ≥ 2 small molecule migraine preventive treatments from different classes and are eligible to receive an aCGRP therapy (aCGRP-N) but have not yet done so; The study also includes a smaller cohort of participants who have failed one or more aCGRP therapies (aCGRP-IRs) used for preventative treatment and have a history of unsuccessful treatment with ≥ 2 small molecule migraine preventive treatments from different classes.

Study Design

Understand how the trial is structured, including allocation methods, masking strategies, primary purpose, and other design elements.

Allocation Method

RANDOMIZED

Intervention Model

PARALLEL

This is parallel-group, participant and investigator blinded, treatment study.

Approximately 1220 participants will be screened to achieve 488 randomised to study intervention and 438 evaluable participants.

Study Arms:

The aCGRP-N cohort includes 5 arms (placebo and 4 active dose levels).

* A total of 160 participants will be randomised on a 1:1 basis to receive MEDI0618 or placebo.
* After 104 participants total have been randomised on a 1:1 basis to either MEDI0618 or placebo, 3 other dose arms with MEDI0618 will be initiated and include 56 participants each.

The aCGRP-IR cohort includes 2 arms (placebo and one active dose level).

* 2 arms of 80 participants each; 1 will receive MEDI0618 and 1 will receive placebo randomised on a 1:1 basis.
Primary Study Purpose

PREVENTION

Blinding Strategy

DOUBLE

Participants Investigators
This study will be performed in a double-blind manner (ie, investigator and participant blind). The responsible personnel preparing IP at the site will have access to participants' unblinded treatment assignments.

The IRT/RTSM will provide to the investigators or pharmacists the kit identification numbers to be allocated to the participant at the dispensing visit.

(b) On ≥ 4 days, fulfils any of the following criteria: (i) migraine without aura; (ii) migraine with an aura symptom accompanied or followed by a headache within 60 minutes; (iii) probable migraine; (iv) recurrent attacks that do not match ICHD criteria for migraine but successfully respond to migraine-specific medication.
* Participants who fulfil criteria for MOH are eligible for this study.
