Primary Outcome Measures:

Adjusted Mean Change From Baseline in the Number of Migraine Headache Days (MHD) During the Last 4 Weeks of Treatment Prior to Taper [ Time Frame: Baseline and last 4 weeks of treatment prior to taper (up to Week 17) ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
A migraine headache day is defined as a calendar day with any occurrence of migraine headache pain of at least 30 minutes in duration. Change from baseline was calculated as the mean number of MHD over the last 4 weeks of treatment prior to taper minus the number at baseline using the Last Observation Carried Forward (LOCF). The last 4-week treatment phase is based on the last 4 weeks prior to taper for each participant.

Secondary Outcome Measures:

Mean Change From Baseline in the Number of MHD in All Study Phases [ Time Frame: Baseline and last 4 weeks of treatment prior to taper (up to Week 17) ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
A migraine headache day is defined as a calendar day with any occurrence of migraine headache pain of at least 30 minutes in duration. Change from baseline and the last 4 weeks of treatment prior to taper were calculated means of the number of migraine headache days using the Last Observation Carried Forward (LOCF). Change from baseline is calculated as post-baseline minus baseline. The last 4-week treatment phase is based on the last 4 weeks prior to taper for each participant.
Adjusted Mean Change From Baseline in the Number of Migraine Attacks [ Time Frame: Baseline and last 4 weeks of treatment prior to taper (up to Week 17) ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
A migraine attack is defined as a migraine headache of at least 30 minutes in duration and may also include recurring non-migraine or migraine headaches . Change from baseline and the last 4 weeks of treatment prior to taper were calculated means of the number of migraine attacks using the Last Observation Carried Forward (LOCF). The last 4-week treatment phase is based on the last 4 weeks prior to taper for each participant.
Mean Change From Baseline in the Number of Migraine Headache Periods (MHP) [ Time Frame: Baseline and last 4 weeks of treatment prior to taper (up to Week 17) ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
A migraine headache period is a 24-hour block of time that begins at the onset of a migraine event . The 24-hour period is not linked directly with a calendar day. The change from baseline and the last 4 weeks of treatment prior to taper were calculated means of the number of migraine headache periods using the Last Observation Carried Forward (LOCF). The last 4-week treatment phase is based on the last 4 weeks prior to taper for each participant.
Change From Baseline in the Mean Migraine Attack Duration [ Time Frame: Baseline and last 4 weeks of treatment prior to taper (up to Week 17) ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
The total duration of a migraine attack is measured from migraine attack onset until the resolution of the attack measured in hours and may include more than 1 headache event. The duration is assessed using a Daily Migraine Diary. Change from baseline and the last 4 weeks of treatment prior to taper were calculated means of the number of migraine headache days using the Last Observation Carried Forward (LOCF). Change from baseline is calculated as post-baseline minus baseline. The last 4-week treatment phase is based on the last 4 weeks prior to taper for each participant.
Change From Baseline in the Mean Peak Migraine Pain Severity [ Time Frame: Baseline and last 4 weeks of treatment prior to taper (up to Week 17) ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
Peak Migraine Pain Severity was measured using a 4-point scale (0=none, 1=mild, 2=moderate, or 3=severe) on a participant self assessed Daily Migraine Diary. The scale measured the maximum pain severity across all headache events considered to be one attack.. Change from baseline and the last 4 weeks of treatment prior to taper were calculated means of the number of migraine headache days using the Last Observation Carried Forward (LOCF). The last 4-week treatment phase is based on the last 4 weeks prior to taper for each participant.
Mean Change From Baseline to the Last 4-Week Treatment Phase in the Number of Days of Acute Migraine Medication Use [ Time Frame: Baseline and last 4 weeks of treatment prior to taper (up to Week 17) ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
The Number of Days of Acute Migraine Medication Use was assessed via the participant-assessed Daily Migraine Diary.
Mean Change From Baseline to the Last 4-Week Treatment Phase in the Number of Acute Migraine Medication Doses Administered [ Time Frame: Baseline and last 4 weeks of treatment prior to taper (up to Week 17) ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
The Number of Acute Migraine Medication Doses Administered was captured via the participant-assessed Daily Migraine Diary.
Mean Change From Baseline to the Last 4-Week Treatment Phase in the Number of Acute Migraine Medication Doses Administered by Triptan Use [ Time Frame: Baseline and last 4 weeks of treatment prior to taper (up to Week 17) ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
The Number of Acute Migraine Medication Administered was measured via the participant-assessed Daily Migraine Diary.
Mean Change From Baseline to the Last 4-Week Treatment Phase in the Number of Acute Migraine Medication Doses Administered by Opioid Use [ Time Frame: Baseline and last 4 weeks of treatment prior to taper (up to Week 17) ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
The Number of Acute Migraine Medication Doses Administered by Opioid Use was measured via the participant-assessed Daily Migraine Diary.
Mean Change From Baseline to the Last 4-Week Treatment Phase in the Number of Acute Migraine Medication Doses Administered by Prescription Headache Medication Use [ Time Frame: Baseline and last 4 weeks of treatment prior to taper (up to Week 17) ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
The Number of Acute Migraine Medication Doses Administered by Prescription Headache Medication use was measured via the participant-assessed Daily Migraine Diary.
Mean Change From Baseline in Percentage of Migraine Attacks With Each of the Following Migraine Symptoms: Aura, Nausea, Vomiting, Photophobia, Phonophobia [ Time Frame: Baseline and last 4 weeks of treatment prior to taper (up to Week 17) ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
The endpoint is defined as the percentage of attacks with each symptom (separately) for each study phase. Migraine symptoms aura, nausea, vomiting, photophobia, and phonophobia are defined as the presence of each migraine symptom during any of the headache events within an attack.
Percentage of Participants Classified as Responders for Each of the Following Measures: Migraine Headache Days, Migraine Attacks, and Migraine Headache Periods [ Time Frame: Baseline to the Last 4 weeks of treatment ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Detailed Description:

MPX111381 is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group, flexible-dose evaluation of GSK1838262 1200 mg/day, 1800 mg/day, 2400 mg/day and 3000 mg/day compared with placebo in the prophylactic treatment of migraine headache.

Subjects 18 years of age must have experienced at least three migraine headache attacks (with or without aura according to 2004 International Headache Society [IHS] criteria 1.1 and 1.2.1) per month during the 3 months prior to screening and at least four migraine headache days but less than 15 total headache days (migraine or non-migraine) per month during the 3 months prior to screening and must maintain this requirement throughout the last 4 weeks of the baseline period. Approximately 528 subjects from approximately 53 centers in North America will be randomized in a 2:1:2:2:1 ratio to the following treatment groups: placebo, GSK1838262 1200 mg/day, 1800 mg/day, 2400 mg/day and 3000 mg/day. Investigational product will be administered twice daily (morning and evening) with food (e.g., meal or snack).

The study will consist of six study periods for a total study duration of up to 30 weeks: Screening (2 weeks), baseline (including randomization, 6 weeks), flexible titration (5 weeks), maintenance (12 weeks), taper (3 weeks) and post-treatment (2 weeks). The flexible titration administration of investigational product is designed to allow subjects to reach the target dose for maintenance treatment or, if unable to reach this target dose, to achieve a maximum tolerated dose for maintenance treatment. Subjects will have the opportunity to undergo a single dose (600 mg/day) downward adjustment during the flexible titration period if intolerability at the current dose occurs. Subsequently, if a single dose downward adjustment has occurred, no further dose adjustments in the study (upward or downward) will be permitted.
