Summary

This study tested whether the drug rimegepant can help prevent migraines in Chinese adults. 787 participants took either rimegepant or a placebo every other day for 12 weeks. The main goal was to see if rimegepant reduced the number of migraine days per month compared to placebo. The trial is now complete, and results will show if rimegepant is a safe and effective option for migraine prevention.
