The study is composed of 3 phases: pretreatment, double-blind treatment for 4 months (16 weeks), and posttreatment. During the study, patients will maintain headache and medication records to document the following: occurrence and duration of headaches; severity of headache pain; whether or not the headache is pulsating or aggravated by physical activity; associated symptoms, such as nausea, vomiting, photophobia, phonophobia, abdominal pain; and medication taken to relieve headache pain or symptoms. Assessment of efficacy include the percent reduction in the frequency of monthly migraine attacks over the last 12 weeks of the double-blind treatment phase compared with prospective BL period. In addition, the percent reduction in (a) average monthly migraine days, (b) average monthly headache days, and (c) monthly migraine rate, over the last 12 weeks of the double-blind treatment phase compared with the pretreatment phase will be assessed. Safety assessments include the incidence of adverse events, measurement of vital signs (pulse, blood pressure, oral temperature), results of pregnancy tests, physical and neurologic examinations, clinical laboratory tests (hematology, biochemistry, and urinalysis), and monitoring for visual or ocular disturbances, heat intolerance, renal or urinary disturbance, depression and rash. The study hypothesis is that the percent reduction in frequency of monthly (28-day) migraine attacks (using the 48-hour rule) from the prospective baseline period (pretreatment phase) to the last 12 weeks of the double-blind phase will be significantly better for the topiramate groups than for the placebo group. Topiramate tablets (25 milligrams) or placebo, beginning at 25mg once daily (Week 1), increasing to twice daily total of 50mg or 100mg (Week 4). Maximum dosage of topiramate (or placebo) continues for next 12 weeks. Dosage may be reduced once at investigator's discretion."}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['CHILD'], 'maximumAge': '17 Years', 'minimumAge': '12 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* History of migraine (with or without aura) conforming to International Headache Society (IHS) criteria for pediatric subjects for \\>=6 months prior to screening\n* Requires migraine prophylactic therapy, and if previously treated to prevent attacks, had unsatisfactory response to therapy\n* Experienced an average of 3 to 12 migraine attacks and no more than 14 headache days per month during the 3 months prior to the study\n* Females must be sexually abstinent, surgically sterile, or using adequate contraceptive measures, and have negative pregnancy tests before and during the study\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Currently taking or previously unable to tolerate topiramate, or previously failed therapy with topiramate for migraine prophylaxis\n* Has mixed headaches and is unable to distinguish migraines from other headache types\n* Overuses pain medications or specific agents for abortive treatment of migraine attacks\n* Has a body mass index (BMI) greater than 40 or weighs more than 200 pounds, or is markedly underweight (below 5th percentile) for his or her age'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT00210535', 'briefTitle': 'A Study of the Effectiveness and Safety of Topiramate for the Prevention of Migraine Attacks in Children', 'organization': {'class': 'INDUSTRY', 'fullName': 'Johnson & Johnson Pharmaceutical Research & Development, L.L.C.'}, 'officialTitle': 'A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Topiramate for the Prophylaxis of Migraine in Pediatric Subjects 12 to 17 Years of Age', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': 'CR002245'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'interventions': [{'name': 'Topiramate; Placebo', 'type': 'DRUG'}]}, 'contactsLocationsModule': {'overallOfficials': [{'name': 'Johnson & Johnson Pharmaceutical Research & Development, L.L.
