Clinical Study

Testing the Drug Ubrogepant in Adults and Young Adults with Migraine

Migraine is a reoccurring headache that varies in pain and can cause other health issues such as sick to the stomach, and sensitivity to light and sound. The study will test a drug called Ubrogepant to treat people with the disease. The study wants to see if the drug will help people with the disease and is safe. People in this study will be randomly treated with the Ubrogepant or a placebo. The drug and placebo are swallowed as a pill. This placebo does not have the treatment. Participation in the study is about 6-7 months. Medical tests will be done in-person, on the phone, and online such as using a computer during the study to track the health of participants.
