Key clinical point: When taken during the prodrome, ubrogepant was more effective than placebo in reducing headaches in patients with a ≥1-year history of migraine and had a tolerable safety profile.
Major finding: A significantly higher proportion of patients reported the absence of moderate or severe headaches within 24 hours of receiving ubrogepant vs placebo (46% vs 29%; odds ratio 2.09; P < .0001). Nausea, fatigue, dizziness, and somnolence were reported by ≤5% of patients receiving ubrogepant.
Study details: The PRODROME trial included 518 patients with migraine who were randomly assigned to receive placebo followed by 100 mg ubrogepant to treat the first and second qualifying prodrome events, respectively, or 100 mg ubrogepant followed by placebo to treat the first and second qualifying prodrome events, respectively.
