Abstract Details

An Optional Second Dose of Ubrogepant is Effective in Achieving 2-Hour Pain Freedom in the Acute Treatment of Migraine
Headache

Evaluate efficacy of a second dose of ubrogepant for the acute treatment of migraine.

Ubrogepant is an oral CGRP receptor antagonist in development for the acute treatment of migraine. Two doses of acute treatment separated over time is sometimes needed for migraine management.
ACHIEVE-I (NCT02828020) and ACHIEVE-II (NCT02867709) were single-attack, Phase 3 trials. Adults with a history of migraine, with/without aura were randomized 1:1:1 to placebo or ubrogepant (50mg or 100mg, ACHIEVE-I; 25mg or 50mg, ACHIEVE-II). An optional second dose was allowed starting 2 hours post-initial dose if pain was still moderate. Participants initially randomized to ubrogepant were re-randomized to placebo or ubrogepant; those initially randomized to placebo received placebo for the second dose. Data for ubrogepant-50mg and placebo were pooled for this analysis. Treatment comparisons were based on those who took the same initial dose.
Participants’ (n=3358 randomized) mean age was 41 years; the majority were female and white. Of those who took an optional second dose of study medication (n=1144), a significantly higher proportion achieved 2-hour pain freedom with an optional second dose of ubrogepant-50mg (n=53/156, 34% pooled; OR: 2.20 [95%CI: 1.26, 3.85], p=0.0057) versus ubrogepant-50mg/placebo (n=25/131, 19% pooled). Of those who achieved 2-hour pain relief post-initial dose, a significantly higher proportion achieved pain freedom post-optional second dose of ubrogepant-50mg (n=41/75, 55% pooled; OR: 2.64 [95%CI: 1.27, 5.49] p=0.0091) versus ubrogepant-50mg/placebo (n=19/57, 33% pooled). Higher response rates were also observed following an optional second dose of ubrogepant-25mg and -100mg; however, differences were not significant. The proportion of participants reporting adverse events after 2 doses of ubrogepant was similar across treatment groups (8%-15%) and comparable to placebo/placebo (12%).
Ubrogepant is the first and only treatment to demonstrate statistically higher rates of pain freedom at second dose compared to placebo. No safety concerns were identified following 2 doses of ubrogepant.
