Study design and rationale of COMPETE: Comparison of the effect of medication therapy in alleviating migraine with patent foramen ovale
2024
Overview
Previous studies have examined the impact of antithrombotic agents on Patent Foramen Ovale (PFO) in relation to migraine. However, differences in effectiveness of different antithrombotic agents and traditional migraine medications are not known.
This study is an investigator-initiated, randomized, multicenter, single-masked (outcomes assessor), and active-controlled parallel-group trial (ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT05546320), with the objective of evaluating the prevention efficacy of antithrombotic agents compared to first-line migraine medication in PFO patients. The trial involves 1,000 migraine patients with a right-to-left shunt at the atrial level, randomized in a 1:1:1:1 fashion to receive either aspirin 300 mg QD, clopidogrel 75 mg QD, rivaroxaban 20 mg QD, or the active-control metoprolol 25 mg BID. The primary efficacy end point is the response rate, defined as a 50% or greater reduction in the average migraine attack days per month or in the average number of migraine attacks per month at 12-week visit compared to baseline.
The COMPETE trial aims to provide valuable insights into the comparative effectiveness of antithrombotic agents and standard migraine therapies in patients with PFO. This study holds the promise of advancing treatment approaches for individuals having migraines associated with PFO, thus addressing an important gap in current migraine management strategies.
