Summary

This study was designed to determine long-term safety of TREXIMET (sumatriptan/naproxen sodium) in adolescents for the acute treatment of migraine.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • Subject is between 12 and 17 years old at the Screening visit.
  • If subject is female, she must have a negative urine pregnancy test at screening, does not plan to become pregnant during the course of the study and agrees to use an acceptable method of birth control (i.e., a method with a failure rate <1% or abstinence) if she is/becomes sexually active.
  • Subject has migraine with or without aura (2004 ICHD-II criteria).
  • Subject has history suggestive of typical migraine attacks with duration of about 2 or more hours (untreated, or unsuccessfully treated).
  • Subject has at least 2, but not more than 8, migraine attacks per month in each of the 2 months prior to the Screening visit.
  • Subject has at least a 6-month history of moderate to severe migraine attacks, sufficient to establish a definitive diagnosis of migraine.
  • Subject is able to distinguish migraine from other headaches (e.g., tension-type headaches).
  • Subject and subject's parent or legal guardian are willing and able to provide informed consent prior to entry into this treatment phase of the study.
  • Subject and subject's parent or legal guardian are able to read and write English or Spanish.
  • Subject is able to understand and complete the electronic device to report treatment information.

Exclusion Criteria

  • Subject is < 75 pounds (33.3kg).
  • Subject has ≥15 headache days per month in total, retinal (ICHD-II 1.4), basilar (ICHD-II 1.26) or hemiplegic migraine (ICHD-II 1.25), or secondary headaches.
  • Subject, in the investigator's opinion, is likely to have unrecognized cardiovascular or cerebrovascular disease (See Appendix 1, section 11.1).
  • Subject has uncontrolled hypertension (See Appendix 2, section 11.2) or is taking any angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor or angiotensin receptor blocker.
  • Subject has a history of congenital heart disease, cardiac arrhythmias requiring medication, or a history of a clinically significant electrocardiogram abnormality that, in the investigator's opinion, contraindicates participation in this study.
  • Subject has evidence or history of any ischemic vascular diseases including: ischemic heart disease, ischemic abdominal syndromes, peripheral vascular disease or Raynaud's Syndrome, or signs/symptoms consistent with any of the above.
  • Subject has evidence or history of central nervous system pathology including stroke and/or transient ischemic attacks (TIAs), epilepsy or structural brain lesions which lower the convulsive threshold; or has been treated with an antiepileptic drug for seizure control within 5 years prior to screening.
  • Subject has a history of impaired hepatic or renal function that, in the investigator's opinion, contraindicates participation in this study.
  • Subject has hypersensitivity, allergy, intolerance, or contraindication to the use of any triptan, NSAID or aspirin (including all sumatriptan and naproxen preparations) or has nasal polyps and asthma.
  • Subject is currently taking, or has taken in the previous three months, a migraine prophylactic medication containing methysergide or dihydroergotamine; or is taking a medication that is not stabilized (i.e., change of dose within the past 2 months) for either chronic or intermittent migraine prophylaxis or for a co-morbid condition that is not stabilized.
  • Subject has a recent history of regular use of opioids or barbiturates for treatment of his/her migraine headache and/or other non-migraine pain. Regular use is defined as an average of 4 days per month over the last 6 months.
  • Subject has taken, or plans to take, a monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOI), including herbal preparations containing St. John's Wort (Hypericum perforatum), anytime within the 2 weeks prior to screening through 2 weeks post final study treatment.
  • Subject history of any bleeding disorder or is currently taking any anti-coagulant or any antiplatelet agent.
