Key clinical point: Lasmiditan was associated with mild-to-moderate central nervous system (CNS)-related adverse events (AE), mostly transient in duration.

Major finding: Treatment-emergent serious AEs occurred in 0.4%, 0.2%, and 0.4% of patients treated with placebo, 100 mg lasmiditan, and 200 mg lasmiditan, respectively. The most common treatment-emergent AEs with lasmiditan were dizziness, nausea, paresthesia, fatigue, somnolence, and vertigo, with mostly mild-to-moderate severity. No deaths were reported.

Study details: Findings are from safety analysis of the phase 3 CENTURION trial that assessed 4,494 attacks across 1,471 patients with migraine with and without aura who were randomly assigned to either 200 mg lasmiditan or 100 mg lasmiditan for 4 attacks or placebo for 3 attacks and 50 mg lasmiditan for the third/fourth attack.

Disclosures: This study was sponsored by Eli Lilly and Company. Some investigators, including the lead author, reported receiving research grants, institutional payments, or fees for advisory boards and scientific lecturing; being an employee of; owning shares in; or consulting for various sources, including Eli Lilly and Company.
