This study is a Phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of erenumab in migraine prevention in children (6 to <12 years) and adolescents (12 to <18 years) with episodic migraine.
The trial consists of four phases: screening (up to 3 weeks of initial screening and a 4-week prospective baseline phase); the double-blind treatment phase (24 weeks) in which participants receive placebo or Erenumab dose 1, dose 2 or dose 3 (based on participant's body weight) via subcutaneous injection once a month; the optional dose level blinded extension phase (40 weeks), in which all participants are assigned to receive dose 1, dose 2 or dose 3 of Erenumab; and a 12 weeks safety follow-up phase (16 weeks after the last dose of investigational drug).
The study intends to enroll 456 participants (376 adolescents and up to 80 children).

- Change from baseline in monthly migraine days (MMDs) [ Time Frame: Completion of double blind treatment phase at 12 weeks ]To evaluate the effect of erenumab compared with placebo on the change in MMDs from baseline to week 9 through week 12 (month 3) of the double-blind treatment period (DBTP).
- Change in monthly headache days from baseline [ Time Frame: Completion of double blind treatment phase at 12 weeks ]To evaluate the effect of erenumab compared with placebo on the change from baseline in monthly headache days to week 9 through week 12 (month 3) of the double-blind treatment period (DBTP)
- Proportion of subjects with at least 50% reduction in monthly migraine days (MMDs) from baseline [ Time Frame: Completion of double blind treatment phase at 12 weeks ]To evaluate the effect of erenumab compared with placebo on the proportion of subjects with at least 50% reduction in MMDs from baseline to week 9 through week 12 (month 3) of the double-blind treatment period (DBTP)
- Change in monthly migraine days (MMDs) from baseline to the average of the first 3 months [ Time Frame: Completion of double blind treatment phase at 12 weeks ]To evaluate the effect of erenumab compared with placebo on the change in MMDs from baseline to the average of the first 3 months (week 1 through week 12) of the double-blind treatment period (DBTP).
- Change in monthly migraine days (MMDs) from baseline to the average of the first 6 month [ Time Frame: Completion of double blind treatment phase at 24 weeks ]To evaluate the effect of erenumab compared with placebo on the change in MMDs from baseline to the average of the 6 month (week 1 through week 24) double-blind treatment period (DBTP).
- Change in monthly average severity of migraine attacks from baseline (measured with a visual analogue scale) [ Time Frame: Completion of double blind treatment phase at 12 weeks ]To evaluate the effect of erenumab compared with placebo on the change from baseline in monthly average severity of migraine attacks to week 9 through week 12 (month 3) of the double-blind treatment period (DBTP). This will be measured in a daily electronic diary (eDiary) with a visual analogue scale.
- Change from baseline in migraine-related disability and productivity [ Time Frame: Completion of double blind treatment phase at 12 weeks ]To evaluate the effect of erenumab compared with placebo on the change from baseline in migraine-related disability and productivity as measured by the modified Pediatric Migraine Disability Assessment Questionnaire (PedMIDAS) to month 3 of the double-blind treatment period (DBTP).

- History of migraine (with or without aura) for greater than or equal to 12 months before screening according to the IHS Classification ICHD-3 (Headache Classification Committee of the International Headache Society, 2013) ICHD-3 specifications for pediatric migraine (subjects aged less than 18 years), should be considered for the diagnosis of migraine
- History of less than 15 headache days per month of which greater than or equal to 4 headache days were assessed by the subject as migraine days per month in each of the 3 months prior to screening.
- Migraine frequency: greater than or equal to 4 and less than 15 migraine days during the baseline phase based on the eDiary calculations.
