Summary of Clinical Use Click here for help
Telcagepant (MK-0974) progressed to Phase 3 clinical trial as a migraine treatment. Click here to link to ClinicalTrials.gov's full list of telcagepant trials. Development of this agent has been discontinued. Results that show that daily dosing with telcagepant caused elevation of transaminase activity (i.e. acute hepatocellular toxicity) as an adverse event in two separate trials [2-3] are likely to have influenced the decision to terminate development of telcagepant as a migraine prevention drug [1]. The toxic effect was likely due to the compound's structure rather than any on-target effect.
