A plain-language read of the study's public EU CTIS listing. The study team confirms the details.

Who can take part

You may be able to join if

  • Female participants ≥18 to ≤45 years who have regular menstrual cycles ≥24 days and ≤34 days and are able to reliably (±3 days) predict the onset of menses in the opinion of the investigator based on participant history.
  • A minimum 1-year history of migraine (with or without aura) consistent with a diagnosis according to the International Classification of Headache Disorders, 3rd Edition for migraine with or without aura.
  • A history of menstrual migraine attacks of at least 3 months: Patient-reported history of experiencing at least 1 migraine day during the PMP (ie, Days -2 to +3 of the menstrual cycle where Day 1 is the onset of menses) in at least 2 out of 3 menstrual cycles immediately prior to screening.
  • If the participant is receiving a permitted background continuous prophylactic migraine medication (maximum of a single non-CGRP treatment), the medication dose must be stable for at least 3 months prior to the Screening visit and, the dose is not expected to change during the course of the study.
  • Women who use oral contraceptive tablets as their means of contraception are eligible to participate providing the dose of the contraceptive tablets has been stable for ≥2 months prior to screening and is not expected to change during participation in the study. Women who use IUD as their means of contraception are also eligible if the device had been placed for at least 3 months.

You likely can't join if

  • Greater than >6 migraine days per month that are outside of the PMP in the 3 months prior to Screening.
  • A diagnosis of chronic migraine or a history of >14 headache days per month on average, in the 3 months prior to Screening.
  • History of retinal migraine, basilar migraine or hemiplegic migraine.
  • History of any trigeminal autonomic cephalalgia.
  • Any medical or psychiatric condition including recent (within the past year) or active suicidal ideation/behavior or laboratory abnormality that may increase the risk of study participation or, in the investigator’s judgment, make the participant inappropriate for the study.
  • Systolic blood pressure >150 mmHg or >100 mmHg diastolic after 10 minutes of rest at the Screening Visit.
