New study tests migraine drug as attack stopper
NCT ID NCT06628921
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether the migraine drug eptinezumab can stop a migraine attack while it is being given through an IV. Researchers want to know how fast the headache goes away and if other bothersome symptoms also disappear. The study will include 50 adults who have migraines at least 8 days per month and are already scheduled to start eptinezumab as part of their regular care.
