Study Details

The HORIZON study is a clinical research study for children diagnosed with chronic migraine aged 12 to 17. Migraine is a severe, chronic neurological disease where you experience recurring attacks of headaches, sensory disturbances, and other symptoms. It is one of the most common childhood ailments, affecting an estimated 7% to 10% of children.

The HORIZON Study is evaluating an investigational study drug (atogepant) for the prevention of migraine headaches in children between the ages of 12 to 17. The investigational study drug is currently approved to treat migraine in adults. The safety and effectiveness of this investigational study drug in children is unknown.

Participation in this study is voluntary. Whether or not you and your child decide to participate in this study will not affect your current or future relationships with your doctors. If you and your child decide to participate, your child is free to withdraw at any time without affecting those relationships.

    Participating in our Migraine Clinical Trials

    The HORIZON Study will last as short as several weeks or for up to 5 months. Eligible participants will receive the investigational study drug or the placebo (a pill designed not to have any biological effects on your body). All study-related visits, tests, and investigational study drug will be provided at no cost. If your child qualifies for the study, they may also receive compensation for time and travel. The study team will provide more information when they contact you.

    After completing the HORIZON study, your child may be eligible to participate in another voluntary study and receive the investigational study drug at no cost, for up to one year. Your child must qualify to participate in the voluntary open-label extension study. Please discuss this with your study doctor and the study team at the site.
