Pivotal Trial
Summary
This trial will test if a new drug, BHV-3000, is safe and effective in treating migraines in children and adolescents.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for children and teens aged 6 to under 18 with a history of migraines, weighing over 40 kg. They must be able to tell the difference between migraine and other headaches, may use stable doses of certain migraine prevention meds but not CGRP antagonists, and should have had 1-8 significant migraine attacks per month in the past two months.
What is being tested?
The study is testing BHV-3000 (Rimegepant) against a placebo for quickly treating moderate or severe migraines in young people. Participants will randomly receive either the actual medication or a dummy pill without knowing which one they are taking.
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects aren't listed here, Rimegepant could potentially cause nausea, drowsiness, dry mouth, and allergic reactions among others. Placebos typically have no active ingredients but can still lead to perceived side effects.
