Key clinical point: Anti-calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) monoclonal antibodies (mAb) were well tolerated and effective in treating high-frequency episodic or chronic migraine, with factors such as unilateral pain, fewer migraine days, and lower disability associated with good and excellent responses to anti-CGRP mAb treatment.
Major finding: At 6 months, 56.5% and 26.7% patients receiving anti-CGRP mAb showed good and excellent responses (≥50% vs ≥75% reduction in monthly headache days), respectively. The presence of unilateral pain, fewer monthly migraine days, and a low Migraine Disability Assessment Score were independent predictors of good (area under the curve [AUC] 0.648; 95% CI 0.616-0.680) and excellent (AUC 0.691; 95% CI 0.651-0.731) responses to anti-CGRP mAb treatment.
Study details: This prospective multicenter real-world study included 4963 patients with high-frequency episodic or chronic migraine who received anti-CGRP mAb treatment with a 6-month follow-up.
Disclosures: This study did not receive specific funding from any sources. Several authors declared receiving speaker honoraria, travel grants, or honoraria from or having other ties with various sources.
