What this Trial Is About
Researchers are evaluating the effect of Xeomin injections compared to placebo injections for preventing chronic migraine. This Phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial includes an extension period and aims to measure changes in the number of monthly migraine days. Participants have chronic migraine and meet specific criteria related to headache frequency and migraine history. Participants receive Xeomin or placebo injections into muscles of the head and neck at pericranial and cervical points. The study includes two Xeomin dose groups and a placebo group during the controlled period, with all groups receiving Xeomin in the extension phase. Four treatments are given approximately 12 weeks apart over a total study duration of 52 to 55 weeks. Participants take part in 14 visits over the study period, with the first, last, and four treatment visits conducted in person and the remaining eight visits by phone or video call. Researchers collect headache and migraine data from diaries and assess changes in monthly migraine days as the primary outcome. Safety is monitored by tracking treatment-related adverse events throughout the trial.
