An Open-Label Study to Evaluate the Safety of NP101, a Sumatriptan Iontophoretic Transdermal Patch, in the Treatment of Acute Migraine Over 12 Months

This study will use an open-label design to evaluate the safety of NP101. Adult subjects who
meet the enrollment criteria will be treated with NP101 (sumatriptan succinate iontophoretic
transdermal patch) for acute migraine attacks over a 12 month period.


Inclusion Criteria:

- Subject is an adult male or female, age range 18 years to 65 years.

ICHD-II and the diagnosis was made before the age of 50.

- Subject experiences mild to severe headaches during a migraine attack based on
subject testimony.

- Subject has at least a one year history of migraine based upon subject testimony.

- Subject typically experiences at least two migraine headaches per month based on
subject testimony.

- Subject will be judged to be in good health, based upon the results of a medical
history, physical examination, vital signs, ECG and laboratory profile. Subjects will
not have any clinically significant abnormal laboratory parameters, vital signs or
ECG parameters in order to qualify for enrollment.

- Female subject of childbearing potential (not surgically sterile or 2 years
postmenopausal) must have a negative pregnancy test at screening and prior to
enrollment.

- Subject must have a negative drug screen.

- Subject must be capable of reading and understanding either English or Spanish
subject information materials. Be able to successfully apply a practice patch,
carry-out all subject procedures, and be able to voluntarily sign and date an IC
agreement approved by an IRB.

- Subject has at least two acceptable patch application sites (upper arms or upper
thighs) that are relatively hair free and has no scars, tattoos, scratches or
bruises.

- In the investigator's opinion the subject is on a stable medication regimen.

Exclusion Criteria:

- Subject has more than 15 headache days per month for any of the three months prior to

threshold.

- Subject has Raynaud's disease.

- Subject has a history of basilar or hemiplegic migraines.

- Subject has a history (within 1 year) or current evidence of drug or alcohol abuse or
dependence.

- Subject has taken non-triptan serotonergic drugs including SSRIs (including
Wellbutrin), SNRIs, TCAs, MAOIs or preparations containing St. John's Wort within 1
month prior to screening and/or is planning to start any of these medications during
the study.

- Subject is unwilling to discontinue use of a PD5 inhibitor (e.g. Viagra®, Levitra®,
or Cialis®) through the Final Visit.

- Subject has a history of a significant allergy or hypersensitivity to any component
of the study patch used in this study.

- Subject has any generalized skin irritation or disease including eczema, psoriasis,
melanoma, or contact dermatitis that would affect transdermal absorption of
sumatriptan and / or affect the subjects ability to assess skin irritation.

- Subject has clinically significant abnormal laboratory parameters, vital signs or ECG
parameters.

- Subject is known to be hepatitis B, hepatitis C or HIV positive.

- Subject has a diagnosis of bipolar disorder or current major depressive disorder, or
has any other medical or psychiatric condition, that in the investigator's opinion
would make the subject unsuitable for enrollment / participation in the study.

- Subject has hepatic dysfunction defined as SGOT/AST or SGPT/ALT ≥ 2 times the upper
limit of normal (ULN) range, or alkaline phosphatase or total bilirubin ≥ 1.5 times
the ULN range or if in the opinion of the Investigator the subject's history,
physical examination or other laboratory tests suggest hepatic dysfunction.

- Female subject who is pregnant, breast feeding, or if of childbearing potential, is
not using or is unwilling to use an effective form of contraception during the study
and for a period of 30 days following dosing.

- Subject has known history of failure to respond to sumatriptan (ineffective or poorly
tolerated).

- Subject has participated in a clinical study within 30 days of screening or is
planning to participate in another clinical study.

- Subject has been previously enrolled in NP101-008.

- Subject is electrically sensitive (e.g., prior iontophoresis with adverse outcome
related to the current delivered by the device) or who have electrically sensitive
support systems (e.g., pacemaker) or other medical condition that in the
investigator's opinion would make the subject unsuitable for enrollment in the study.

- Subject who is considered by investigator or NuPathe, for any reason, to be an
