for Migraine
This trial is testing a medication called atogepant to treat migraines in children and teenagers aged 6 to 17. The study aims to see if atogepant is safe and effective for this age group. Atogepant helps by blocking a protein that triggers migraines, potentially reducing their occurrence and intensity. Atogepant is a newly approved oral medication for the prevention of episodic migraine in adults.
