Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Changes in migraine frequency after three months of treatment

    Changes in monthly migraine days after three months of treatment with rimegepant compared to baseline (continuous variable)

    Baseline (T0) - 3 months of treatment with rimegepant (T3)

  • Percentage of 50% Responders (namely patients who presented a reduction of MMDs >/ = 50% compared to baseline) after three months of treatment with rimegepant

    Percentage of 50% Responders (namely patients who presented a reduction of MMDs \>/ = 50% compared to baseline) after three months of treatment with rimegepant

    Baseline (T0) - 3 months of treatment with rimegepant (T3)

Secondary Outcomes (14)

  • Changes in migraine frequency across twelve months of rimegepant treatment

    Baseline (T0) - 6 months (T6) - 12 months (T12) of treatment with rimegepant

  • Percentage of 50% Responders (namely patients who presented a reduction of MMDs >/ = 50% compared to baseline) across twelve months of treatment with rimegepant

    Baseline (T0) - 6 months (T6) - 12 months (T12) of treatment with rimegepant

  • Evaluation of any adverse event (qualitative)

    3 months (T3) - 6 months (T6) - 12 months (T12) of treatment with rimegepant

  • Evaluation of any adverse event (quantitative)

    3 months (T3) - 6 months (T6) - 12 months (T12) of treatment with rimegepant

  • Evaluation of serious adverse event

    3 months (T3) - 6 months (T6) - 12 months (T12) of treatment with rimegepant

  • +9 more secondary outcomes

Other Outcomes (12)

  • Changes in the number of monthly migraine days with aura (quantitative)

    Baseline (T0) - 3 months (T3) - 6 months (T6) - 12 months (T12) of treatment with rimegepant

  • Variation of duration of aura (qualitative)

    Baseline (T0) - 3 months (T3) - 6 months (T6) - 12 months (T12) of treatment with rimegepant

  • Variation of type of aura (qualitative)

    Baseline (T0) - 3 months (T3) - 6 months (T6) - 12 months (T12) of treatment with rimegepant

  • +9 more other outcomes
