Key clinical point: The anti-calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) monoclonal antibodies (mAb) fremanezumab, erenumab, and galcanezumab demonstrated similar efficacy during the first year of therapy in patients with chronic and high-frequency episodic migraine, and galcanezumab demonstrated a higher response rate than the other two mAb during the 1-month suspension period in patients with chronic migraine.
Major finding: The three anti-CGRP mAb significantly reduced overall migraine frequency and intensity and symptomatic medication intake per month with similar efficacy across all follow-ups up to 12 months. Patients with chronic migraine receiving galcanezumab vs fremanezumab or erenumab showed higher response rates during the 1-month suspension period (57% vs 39% or 17%, respectively; P = .009).
Study details: This retrospective longitudinal single-center study included 160 patients with chronic and high-frequency episodic migraine who were treated with an anti-CGRP mAb (fremanezumab, erenumab, or galcanezumab) for 12 months.
Disclosures: This study did not receive any funding. The authors declared no conflicts of interests.
