|
Drug: Usual Care
Treatment for a migraine as prescribed by the physician as standard of care in clinical practice. |
Experimental: Ubrogepant 50 mg
Ubrogepant 50 mg tablet orally plus placebo-matching ubrogepant tablet for the treatment of a qualifying migraine attack for up to 8 treatments every 4 weeks for up to 1 year. Participants may choose to take a second dose orally after the initial dose if migraine continues or returns.

- Percentage of Participants With at Least 1 Treatment Emergent Adverse Event [ Time Frame: 56 Weeks ]An adverse event (AE) is any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical investigation participant administered a pharmaceutical product and that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal (investigational) product, whether or not related to the medicinal (investigational) product. TEAEs are AEs with an onset that occurs after receiving study drug.
- Number of Participants With Clinically Significant Laboratory Values [ Time Frame: 56 Weeks ]Hematology, Chemistry and Urinalysis results considered potentially clinically significant (PCS) meeting either the lower-limit or higher-limit PCS criteria.
- Number of Participants With Clinically Significant Electrocardiograms (ECGs) Findings [ Time Frame: 56 Weeks ]ECG findings considered potentially clinically significant (PCS) meeting either the lower-limit or higher-limit PCS criteria.
- Number of Participants With Clinically Significant Vital Sign Measurements [ Time Frame: 56 Weeks ]Vital sign measurements considered potentially clinically significant (PCS) meeting either the lower-limit or higher-limit PCS criteria.
- Number of Participants Experiencing Suicidal Ideation or Suicidal Behavior Based on Columbia-Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS) Using 5-Point Scales [ Time Frame: 56 Weeks ]
On the C-SSRS, the 5 types of suicidal ideation are:
Type 1: "Wish to be dead" Type 2: Non-specific active suicidal thoughts Type 3: "Active suicidal ideation with any methods (not plan) without intent to act" Type 4: "Active suicidal ideation with some intent to act, without specific plan" Type 5: "Active suicidal ideation with specific plan and intent"
