Summary

This study tests whether a single infusion of eptinezumab, given within 8 weeks of a mild brain injury, can reduce headache days and prevent short-term post-traumatic headaches from becoming long-term. About 80 adults with migraine-like post-traumatic headaches will receive either the drug or a placebo. The main goal is to see if the drug lowers the number of moderate-to-severe headache days 3 months after treatment.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
eptinezumab
What this could lead to
If it works, this could provide a quick, single-infusion treatment to prevent short-term post-traumatic headaches from becoming chronic and disabling.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-phase trial with only 80 people. The drug may not work better than placebo, and side effects like fatigue or nausea could occur.
