Biohaven Expands Development to Migraine Prevention Phase 3 Trial


Biohaven Pharmaceutical Holding CompanyLtd. (NYSE: BHVN) is presenting expanded data from two randomized, pivotal Phase 3 clinical trials of rimegepant, Biohaven’s small molecule calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) receptor antagonist, on Saturday, June 30, 2018 at the American Headache Society (AHS) Annual Scientific Meeting 2018. These data support rimegepant’s potential to provide patients with pain freedom and freedom from the most bothersome migraine-associated symptom in the acute treatment of migraine using a single dose.
“The two acute treatment Phase 3 clinical trials demonstrate that a single dose of rimegepant can relieve pain and restore function for people with migraine,” said Richard B. Lipton, M.D., Professor and Vice Chair of Neurology at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine and Montefiore Health System, Director of the Montefiore Headache Center, and Chair of Biohaven’s CGRP Scientific Advisory Board. “Most importantly, rimegepant has the potential to help millions of people with migraine get back to work and back to their families.”
