Concomitant use of a CGRP antagonist, such as erenumab or fremanezumab, is prohibited. 3. Previously discontinued prophylactic migraine medication must have done so at least 90 days prior to the Screening Visit. 4. Verbally distinguish between migraine and other types of headaches. 5. Participants must have a weight \> 40 kg at the Screening Visit. 6. Adequate venous access for blood sampling. 7. Male and female participants ≥ 6 to \< 18 years of age (participants must not reach their 18th birthday during the study). Exclusion Criteria: 1. History of cluster headache or hemiplegic migraine headache. 2. Confounding and clinically significant pain syndrome that may interfere with the participant's ability to participate in this study. 3.

History of suicidal behavior or major psychiatric disorder. 5. Current diagnosis or history of substance abuse; positive drug test at Screening. 6. History of moderate or severe head trauma or other neurological disorder (including seizure disorder) or systemic medical disease that is likely to affect central nervous system functioning. 7.

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

To evaluate the efficacy of rimegepant compared with placebo in the acute treatment of migraine in adolescent population (≥ 12 to <18 years of age) as measured by pain freedom using the number of patients reporting no pain.

Pain freedom will be assessed in adolescent population (≥ 12 to \< 18 years of age) on a 4-point numeric rating scale (0=none, 1=mild, 2=moderate, 3=severe).

Time frame: 2 hours post-dose

Secondary Outcomes

To compare rimegepant with placebo for pain freedom in children and adolescents combined.

Pain freedom will be assessed in children and adolescents (≥ 6 to \< 18 years of age) using a 4-point numeric rating scale (0=none, 1=mild, 2=moderate, 3=severe). Pain freedom will be assessed in children (\> 6 to \< 12 years of age) using the 5-Face VAS (Face 5 = 'severe pain', Faces 4 and 3 = 'moderate pain', Face 2 = 'mild pain', Face 1 = 'no pain').

Time frame: 2 hours post-dose

To compare rimegepant with placebo on freedom from the most bothersome symptom (MBS) associated with migraine in adolescents.

Freedom from MBS (nausea, phonophobia or photophobia) will be measured using a binary scale (0=absent, 1=present).

Time frame: 2 hours post-dose

To compare rimegepant with placebo on the probabilities of requiring rescue medication within in adolescents.

Use of rescue medication will be assessed using the numbers of participants that take rescue medication.

Time frame: Within 24 hours and 48 hours of initial treatment

To compare rimegepant with placebo on sustained pain freedom in adolescents.

Sustained pain freedom will be assessed using the number of participants that do not use any rescue medications and do not experience any headache pain post dose.

Time frame: 2 to 24 hours post-dose

To compare rimegepant with placebo on sustained pain freedom in adolescents.

Sustained pain freedom will be assessed using the number of participants that do not use any rescue medications and do not experience any headache pain post dose.

Time frame: 2 to 48 hours post-dose

To compare rimegepant with placebo on the ability to function normally as reported on the Functional Disability scale in adolescents.

The proportion of participants able to function normally will be assessed using the number that self-report as "normal" on the Functional Disability scale.

Time frame: 2 hours post-dose

To compare rimegepant with placebo for pain freedom in children.

Pain freedom will be assessed using the number of children (≥ 6 to \< 12 years of age) that report no pain measured by a 5-Face VAS (Face 5 = 'severe pain', Faces 4 and 3 = 'moderate pain', Face 2 = 'mild pain', Face 1 = 'no pain').

Time frame: 2 hours post-dose

To compare rimegepant with placebo on freedom from the most bothersome symptom (MBS) associated with migraine in children and combined children and adolescents.

Freedom from the most bothersome symptom (nausea, phonophobia or photophobia) will be assessed using the number of participants that report the absence of MBS measured using a binary scale (0=absent, 1=present).

Time frame: 2 hours post-dose

To compare rimegepant with placebo on the probabilities of requiring rescue medication in children and combined children and adolescents.

The probabilities of requiring rescue medication will be assessed using the numbers of participants that take rescue medication within initial treatment.

Time frame: Within 24 hours and 48 hours of initial treatment.

To compare rimegepant with placebo on sustained pain freedom in children and combined children and adolescents.

Sustained pain freedom will be assessed using the number of participants that do not use any rescue medications and do not experience any headache pain post dose.

To compare rimegepant with placebo in adolescents, children and combined children and adolescents on pain relief.

Time to first report of pain relief will be based on the first time point a participant reports a pain level of none or mild.
