In plain English
This study is testing a medicine called eptinezumab in children and teenagers aged 6 to 17 who have chronic (long-term) or episodic (occasional) migraine. It is for people who have already finished a previous migraine study. The study is paid for (sponsored) by a company called H. Lundbeck A/S.
Who can take part
- The child or teenager must have finished the Week 12 visit of a previous migraine study (called Study19356A for chronic migraine, or Study19357A for episodic migraine) just before joining this study.
Who may not be able to
- Having side effects or safety worries linked to the treatment in the earlier study that the study doctor thinks could be a risk.
- Having had a severe allergic reaction (called anaphylaxis) or another serious hypersensitivity reaction to the study medicine given by infusion (a drip into a vein) during the earlier study.
- Having very high levels of certain liver blood tests (called ALT or AST) during the earlier study — more than 5 times the normal limit, confirmed by a repeat test within 2 weeks.
- Having liver blood test results (ALT or AST) more than 3 times the normal limit together with a bile pigment test (called bilirubin) more than 2 times the normal limit.

About This Trial
The main goal of the study is to assess the long-term safety of eptinezumab on children and adolescents ages 6 to 17 with chronic or episodic migraine.
More detail
This is an extension study for participants aged 6 to 17 with migraine who completed either studies 19356A (NCT04965675) (chronic migraine \[CM\] study in adolescents) or 19357A (episodic migraine \[EM\] study in children and adolescents). All participants who complete the Week 12 visit of the respective lead-in study will be offered participation in this open-label extension (OLE) study, unless there is a safety concern precluding a participant's participation in the study. Participants originally randomized to 100 milligrams (mg) (weight adjusted) in the double-blind lead-in study (Study 19356A or Study 19357A) will continue on the same dose (100 mg, weight adjusted) in the OLE study. Participants randomized to the 300 mg dose (weight adjusted) in the double-blind lead-in study will continue on 300 mg (weight adjusted) in the OLE study. Participants who were assigned to placebo in the double-blind lead-in study will be randomly allocated to one of the two treatment groups: eptinezumab 100 mg (weight adjusted) or eptinezumab 300 mg (weight adjusted) with a ratio of 1:1.
