Study summary

This study consists of a 4-week screening period, a 24-week treatment period for all participants, followed by a 28-week treatment period extension (to 52 weeks in total) for a subset of at least 60 and up to 80 participants, and a 2-week post-treatment follow-up period.

Read the detailed description

This is an outpatient study in people who currently suffer a minimum of 2 migraines per month. During the study, participants will be instructed to use no more than 2 doses of the study drug INP104 within a 24-hour period, or 3 doses in a 7-day period. Participants will self-administer INP104 nasally and record their migraines in an eDiary.

Inclusion criteria

  • Documented diagnosis of migraine with or without aura, with at least 2 attacks per month for the previous 6 months.
  • Participants must be in good general health, with no significant medical history (excluding migraine).
  • Participants must have the ability and willingness to attend the necessary visits at the study center.
  • Participants must be able to provide the written prior to entry into the study.
  • Women of must agree to use adequate (as defined in the protocol and by study personnel) during the study and for 30 days after the last dose fo the study drug.
  • Male participants and their partners must agree to use effective contraception (as defined in the protocol and by study personnel) during the study and for 30 days after the last dose of the study drug. Male participants should also refrain from sperm donation for 30 days after study completion.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Subjects with trigeminal autonomic cephalalgias (including cluster headache, hemicrania syndromes and short-lasting unilateral, neuralgiform headache attacks with conjunctival injection and tearing), hemiplegic migraine, or migraine with brainstem aura (previously referred to as basilar migraines).
  • Subjects with chronic migraines, medication overuse headache or other chronic headache syndromes.
  • Subjects with ischemic heart disease or subjects with clinical symptoms or findings consistent with coronary artery vasospasm, including Prinzmetal's variant angina.
  • Subjects with significant risk factors for coronary artery disease (CAD) including current use of nicotine-containing products, medical history of diabetes, uncontrolled hypertension (high blood pressure), known peripheral arterial disease, Raynaud's phenomenon, sepsis or vascular surgery (within 3 months prior to study start), or severely impaired hepatic or renal (kidney) function.
  • Subjects with recurrent sinusitis or epistaxis.
  • Subjects with a history or presence of alcoholism or drug abuse within 2 years prior to first study drug administration.
  • Women who are pregnant, or planning to get pregnant, or who are lactating while participating in the study.
  • Use of any medications prohibited by protocol.
  • Use of >12 days per month of triptan or ergot-based medication in the 2 months prior to screening.

Other protocol-defined inclusion/exclusion criteria may apply.

Terms in these criteria, in plain language(3)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

Childbearing potential

Able to become pregnant: from the first period until menopause, unless permanently unable to through surgery (removal of the womb, or of both ovaries or both fallopian tubes).

Criteria for people of childbearing potential usually ask for a negative pregnancy test and for contraception during the study and for a time after it.

Contraception

Ways of preventing pregnancy. “Highly effective” methods fail less than 1% of the time a year when used correctly — for example an IUD or an implant.

Criteria usually say which methods count and how long to keep using them after the last dose, sometimes for male participants too. Some studies accept a partner’s vasectomy if it was confirmed successful and that person is the participant’s only sexual partner.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Number of Participants With Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)

    Number of participants with Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) whether or not related to study drug.

    Time frame: From study enrollment up to Week 26 (for the 24-Week Treatment Group) and up to Week 54 (for the 52-WeekTreatment Group)

  2. Number of Participants With Non-serious Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (AEs)

    Number of participants with non-serious treatment emergent adverse events (AEs), whether or not related to study drug.

    Time frame: From first use of INP104 up to Week 26 (for the 24-Week Treatment Group) and up to Week 54 (for the 52-WeekTreatment Group)

  3. Change in Nasal Mucosa

    Mean change from baseline in Quantitative Scoring Scale for Evaluation of the Nasal Mucosa (QSS-NM) score, reported at designated intervals on study. This scale was scored by otolaryngologists during routine endoscopy of the upper nasal cavity of participants. A minimum score of 0 means no issues were detected. A maximum score of 34 indicates severe issues (worse outcome).

    Time frame: Baseline up to Week 24 (for the 24-Week Treatment Group) and Baseline up to Week 52 (for the 52-WeekTreatment Group)

  4. Change in Olfactory Function

    Mean change from baseline in olfactory function score, assessed using the University of Pennsylvania Smell Identification Test (UPSIT), and reported at designated intervals on study. The UPSIT is a 40 question scratch and sniff test of olfactory function. The minimum score of 0 indicates worst olfactory function, and the maximum score of 40 indicates the highest level of olfactory function detectable by the test.

    Time frame: Baseline up to Week 24 (for the 24-Week Treatment Group) and Baseline up to Week 52 (for the 52-WeekTreatment Group)

Timeline

Tracking since Sep 25, 2026
ElapsedEstimatedEstimated, not yet reachedSimilar studies: half by the dot; the band is the middle halfHalf of similar studies reached it by the dot; the band is the middle half, from a quarter to three quarters

Ran from Jul 2018 to primary completion in Mar 2020, 20 months.

Results were first posted in Feb 2021, 10 months after primary completion.

Of 114 industry-sponsored phase 3 interventional studies under Migraine Disorders, half reached primary completion within 18 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 11 and three quarters within 31. This study's 20 months is above that.

Counting every sponsor, half of 140 studies reached it within 19 months; a quarter within 12 and three quarters within 40.

How these figures are worked out, and which studies are left out of them.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Mar 11, 2021, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
