             International Classification of Headache Disorders 3rd edition (ICHD-III; Appendix 5);

          6. verification of headache frequency through prospectively collected baseline
             information during the 28-day screening/baseline phase reporting 4-22 migraine days
             and no more than 22 total headache days;

          7. onset of migraine before age 50;

          8. able to differentiate migraine from other primary headache types allowed in the study
             (e.g., tension-type headache);

          9. stable history of migraine at least 3 months prior to screening with at least some
             discreet headache free periods;

         10. not currently taking a migraine preventive OR has been taking a stable dose of a
             preventive for at least 90 days prior to screening and agrees to not start, stop, or
             change medication and/or dosage during the study period;

             * * participants on migraine preventive should have stable headache pattern

         11. women may be included only if they have a negative pregnancy test at screening and
             baseline, are sterile, or postmenopausal. Women of childbearing potential (WOCBP)
             engaging in potentially procreative intercourse must use highly effective birth
             control methods for the duration of the study (i.e., starting at screening).
             Definitions of WOCBP, sterile and postmenopausal women, male contraception, and highly
             effective and acceptable birth control methods are to be determined based on
             investigator's judgment;

         12. demonstrated compliance with the electronic Daily Headache Diary during the 28-day
             screening/baseline phase as defined by entry of headache data on a minimum of 23 days;

         13. is willing to wear activity/sleep tracker throughout the duration of the trial;

         14. has a smartphone and willing to install activity tracker app on phone.

        Exclusion Criteria:

          1. unable to understand the study requirements, the informed consent, or complete
             headache records as required per protocol;

          2. pregnant, actively trying to become pregnant, or breast-feeding;

          3. history of substance abuse and/or dependence that would interfere study conduction, in
             the opinion of the Investigator;

          4. history of impaired renal function that, in the investigator's opinion,
             contraindicates participation in this study;

          5. suffers from a serious illness, or an unstable medical condition, one that could
             require hospitalization, increase the risk of adverse events, or compromise data
             integrity (ie, likely require changes in con meds or lead to other medical
             investigations or treatments during the study).

          6. a psychiatric condition, in the opinion of the investigator, that may affect the
             interpretation of efficacy and safety data or contraindicates the participant's
             participation in the study;

             investigational biological products unless previous study blind has been broken and
             subject was known to have received placebo);

         11. plans to participate in another clinical study at any time during this study;

         14. clinically relevant lab results at screening as determined by the investigator;
