Long-term Extension Study to Assess Safety and Tolerability of Oral Ubrogepant Tablets for the Acute Treatment of Migraine in Pediatric Participants (Ages 6-17)
Description

Migraine is a common neurological disorder typically characterized by attacks of throbbing, moderate to severe headache, often associated with nausea, vomiting, and sensitivity to light and sound. Migraine is extremely common and disabling in children. The purpose of this study is to evaluate long term safety and tolerability of ubrogepant in the acute treatment of migraine in pediatric participants. Ubrogepant is a drug approved for the acute treatment of migraine in adults. Pediatric participants (aged 6-17 years) with a history of migraine will be enrolled. Participants who completed the lead-in Study 3110-305-002, as well as those who were placebo responders and screen failed, will be eligible to enroll into this study. Around 1200 participants will be enrolled in the study at approximately 120 sites in the United States. Participants may receive ubrogepant oral tables to treat up to 8 migraine attacks of any intensity per month. There will be an option to take a second dose of study intervention (identical to initial dose), or rescue medication, starting 2 hours after the initial dose. The study duration will be up to 54 weeks. There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at a hospital or clinic. The safety and tolerability of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, blood tests, checking for adverse events and completing questionnaires.

Low-dose Propofol for Pediatric Migraine
Description

Propofol, a general anesthetic, has been suggested to be effective for the treatment of migraine headaches in adults when used in subanesthetic doses (lower doses than those used for anesthesia or sedation). Initial retrospective review of the investigators experience with propofol for migraine in children suggests that it is safe and may be more effective than standard treatments used in the emergency department. The investigators retrospective series had a small subject population and a larger study is needed to compare propofol to current available treatments. Standard treatment currently consists of a "cocktail" of medications that include anti-nausea medicines (metoclopramide and diphenhydramine) and an analgesic (ketorolac) as well as intravenous fluids. Subjects assigned to the experimental group (Propofol) will receive the same intravenous fluids and up to five doses of propofol. All subjects will undergo assessment of their pain (self-rated on a scale from 0-10) before and after treatment. Post-visit clinical data will be collected from the subject's medical record and subjects will be called by telephone 24-48 hours after discharge from the emergency department to ask how they are doing and whether they required any additional treatments such as home medications or by other medical professionals other than OHSU.

Prochlorperazine Versus Prochlorperazine & Ketorolac in Treatment of Pediatric Migraine in the Emergency Department
Description

The aim of this study is to evaluate whether the use of prochlorperazine and ketorolac in combination lead in a larger reduction in pain score compared to prochlorperazine alone when treating pediatric migraine in the Emergency Department (ED). Our hypothesis is that this combination of medications treats not only the pain but also the associated gastrointestinal symptoms of migraine. The main outcome of this study is the reduction in the patient's pain score at 60 minutes from administration of the study medications. Secondary outcomes include the number of patients achieving complete resolution of the headache while in the ED, the number of patients requiring additional treatment interventions by the treating physician, the number of patients with resolution of the associated symptoms like nausea, vomiting, photophobia and phonophobia, the recurrence of headache in the 48-72 hours after discharge, and side effects of the medications.

Propofol has been used in adult populations to treat migraines as an abortive agent. Investigators plan to investigate its efficacy as an abortive agent in the pediatric population when administered as a safe low-dose infusion. Goals of the study are to: 1. Evaluate efficacy of low-dose propofol infusion as an abortive agent in pediatric migraine headaches 2. Evaluate effective and safe dosing limits in pediatric populations 3. Evaluate duration of effect reached from a low-dose propofol infusion as an abortive agent Endpoints for the study will be: 1. Number of enrolled patients 2. Safety endpoints reached, including: cardiopulmonary depression, excessive somnolence Risks of the study are minimal due to the use of sub-anesthetic dosing of propofol under the guidance and supervision of a board certified pediatric anesthesiologist with the appropriate monitoring equipment and readily available emergency equipment.

A Study to Assess the Adverse Events and Change in Disease Activity of Oral Atogepant Tablets in Pediatric Participants (6-17 Years of Age) With Episodic Migraine
Description

A migraine is a moderate to severe headache on one side of the head. A migraine attack is a headache that may be accompanied by throbbing, nausea, vomiting, sensitivity to light and sound, or other symptoms. A number of treatments are available for adults with migraine but there are limited approved treatments available for pediatric participants. The main goal of the study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy (how well treatment works) of a low-dose and high-dose of atogepant in pediatric participants between the ages of 6 and 17. Atogepant is a medicine currently approved to treat adults with migraine (0 to 14 migraine days per month) and is being studied in pediatric participants between the ages of 6 and 17 with a history of episodic migraine. This is a Phase 3, randomized, double-blind study of atogepant in participants with a history of episodic migraine with an open-label pharmacokinetic substudy. Eligible participants will be randomized into 6 different groups. Participants between the ages of 12 and 17 will be randomized to receive placebo, low-dose atogepant, or high-dose atogepant for 12 weeks. Participants between the ages of 6 and 11 will also be randomized to receive placebo, low-dose atogepant, or high-dose atogepant for 12 weeks. The specific atogepant doses to be used in participants between the ages of 6 and 11 will be determined after the PK substudy is complete. Around 450 participants will be enrolled in approximately 100 sites worldwide. Placebo, low-dose atogepant, and high-dose atogepant are given as a tablet to take by mouth once a day. At the end of Week 12, participants will either undergo a follow-up visit 4 weeks after last study treatment or join an extension study where they can continue to receive atogepant for another 52 weeks. There may be a bigger responsibility for participants in this study. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at a hospital or clinic. The effects of treatment will be checked by medical assessments, blood tests, checking for side effects, and completing questionnaires.
