What's being measured
Primary outcomes are the specific endpoints the trial is designed to prove or disprove.
-
Headache Relief (Modified LOCF - Efficacy Evaluable Analysis Set)
Time frame: 2 hours
Headache relief at 2 hours post administration defined as reduction from Baseline moderate or severe score to mild or none. -
Headache Recurrence (Modified LOCF - Efficacy Evaluable Analysis Set)
Time frame: 4 hours
Headache recurrence is defined as any subject that experiences headache relief at the given time point (i.e., 2 hours or 4 hours), who did not use rescue medication and who experienced a worsening of their headache to moderate or severe within 24 hours following study drug administration. The denominator is the number of subjects who experienced headache relief at 2 hours/4 hours.
