Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary Mean Change From Baseline in the Weekly Average Number of Cluster Headache (CH) Attacks During the 4-Week Period After Administration of the First Dose of the IMP A CH attack was defined as a severe or very severe unilateral orbital, supraorbital, and/or temporal pain lasting 15 to 180 minutes with either or both of the following 2 categories: 1) at least 1 of the following symptoms or signs, ipsilateral to the headache: -conjunctival injection and/or lacrimation; -nasal congestion and/or rhinorrhea; -eyelid edema; -forehead and facial sweating; -forehead and facial flushing; -sensation of fullness in the ear; -miosis and/or ptosis. 2) a sense of restlessness or agitation. Least Squares (LS) mean calculated using analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) model with baseline preventive medication use (yes or no), sex, region (United States [US]/Canada or other), and treatment as fixed effects and the baseline number of CH attacks as a covariate. Change from baseline in the overall weekly average number of CH attacks during the 4-week period after administration of the first dose of study drug (based on Week 0 to 4 data) is reported. Baseline (Week 0), up to Week 4
Secondary Percentage of Participants With a =50% Reduction From Baseline in the Weekly Average Number of CH Attacks During the 4-Week Period After the First Dose of the IMP A CH attack was defined as a severe or very severe unilateral orbital, supraorbital, and/or temporal pain lasting 15 to 180 minutes with either or both of the following 2 categories: 1) at least 1 of the following symptoms or signs, ipsilateral to the headache: -conjunctival injection and/or lacrimation; -nasal congestion and/or rhinorrhea; -eyelid edema; -forehead and facial sweating; -forehead and facial flushing; -sensation of fullness in the ear; -miosis and/or ptosis. 2) a sense of restlessness or agitation. Baseline (Week 0), up to Week 4
Secondary Mean Change From Baseline in Weekly Average Number of CH Attacks During the 12-Week Period After Administration of the First Dose of the IMP A CH attack was defined as a severe or very severe unilateral orbital, supraorbital, and/or temporal pain lasting 15 to 180 minutes with either or both of the following 2 categories: 1) at least 1 of the following symptoms or signs, ipsilateral to the headache: -conjunctival injection and/or lacrimation; -nasal congestion and/or rhinorrhea; -eyelid edema; -forehead and facial sweating; -forehead and facial flushing; -sensation of fullness in the ear; -miosis and/or ptosis. 2) a sense of restlessness or agitation. LS mean calculated using mixed model for repeated measures (MMRM) with baseline preventive medication use (yes or no), gender, region (US/Canada or other), treatment, month, and month-by-treatment interaction as fixed effects and baseline number of CH attacks as a covariate. Change from baseline in the overall weekly average number of CH attacks during the 12-week period after administration of the first dose of study drug (based on Week 0 to 12 data) is reported. Baseline (Week 0), up to Week 12
Secondary Mean Change From Baseline in Weekly Average Number of CH Attacks During the 4-Week Period After Administration of the Third Dose of the IMP A CH attack was defined as a severe or very severe unilateral orbital, supraorbital, and/or temporal pain lasting 15 to 180 minutes with either or both of the following 2 categories: 1) at least 1 of the following symptoms or signs, ipsilateral to the headache: -conjunctival injection and/or lacrimation; -nasal congestion and/or rhinorrhea; -eyelid edema; -forehead and facial sweating; -forehead and facial flushing; -sensation of fullness in the ear; -miosis and/or ptosis. 2) a sense of restlessness or agitation. LS mean calculated using MMRM with baseline preventive medication use (yes or no), gender, region (US/Canada or other), treatment, month, and month-by-treatment interaction as fixed effects and baseline number of CH attacks as a covariate. Change from baseline in the overall weekly average number of CH attacks during the 4-week period after administration of the first dose of study drug (based on Week 8 to 12 data) is reported. Baseline (Week 0), Week 8 up to Week 12
Secondary Mean Change From Baseline in the Weekly Average Number of Days With Use of Cluster-Specific Acute Headache Medications (Triptans and Ergot Compounds) During the 12-Week Period After the First Dose of the IMP A maximum of 2 concomitant preventive medications for CH were allowed during the study. Participants must have been on a stable dose and regimen of the concomitant medication for at least 2 weeks before screening and throughout the study. LS mean calculated using ANCOVA model with baseline preventive medication use (yes or no), gender, region (US/Canada or other), and treatment as fixed effects and the baseline number of cluster headache attacks as a covariate. Baseline data and the mean change from baseline in the overall weekly average number of days with the use of cluster-specific acute headache medications (triptans and ergot compounds) during the 12-week period after administration of the first dose of study drug (based on Week 0 to 12 data) is reported. Baseline (Week 0), up to Week 12
Secondary Mean Change From Baseline in the Weekly Average Number of Days Oxygen Was Used to Treat Episodic Cluster Headache (ECH) During the 12-Week Period After the First Dose of the IMP LS mean calculated using ANCOVA model with baseline preventive medication use (yes or no), gender, region (US/Canada or other), and treatment as fixed effects and the baseline number of cluster headache attacks as a covariate. Baseline data and the mean change from baseline in the overall weekly average number of days oxygen was used to treat ECH during the 12-week period after administration of the first dose of IMP (based on Week 0 to 12 data) is reported. Baseline (Week 0), up to Week 12
Secondary Number of Participants Who Perceived Improvement of CH-Associated Pain From Baseline as Measured by the Patient-Perceived Satisfactory Improvement (PPSI) Scale at Weeks 1, 4, 8, and 12 The PPSI assessment was developed to measure pain intensity and was adjusted for CH symptoms improvement. Participants marked the level of CH-associated pain and indicated if pain is "1=much worse," "2=moderately worse," "3=slightly worse," "4=unchanged," "5=slightly improved," "6=moderately improved," or "7=much improved" compared with 4 weeks prior. PPSI was defined as the change in pain that corresponds with a minimal rating of "5=slightly improved." Data at Week 1 was recorded on Day 7 in the electronic diary device at home. Week 12 data also included assessment at the early withdrawal visit for participants who discontinued the study early. Baseline, Weeks 1, 4, 8, and 12
Secondary Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs) An AE was defined as any untoward medical occurrence that develops or worsens in severity during the conduct of a clinical study and does not necessarily have a causal relationship to the study drug. Relationship of AE to treatment was determined by the Investigator.
