Key clinical point: Consistent with the overall study population results, eptinezumab therapy demonstrated favorable efficacy and safety in patients with episodic migraine (EM) or chronic migraine (CM) and self-reported aura from the PROMISE studies.

Major finding: Over weeks 1-12, monthly migraine days decreased with 100 mg and 300 mg eptinezumab vs. placebo in patients with EM (100 mg, −3.9 days; 300 mg, −4.2 days vs. −3.3 days) and CM (100 mg, −7.1 days; 300 mg, −7.6 days vs. −5.9 days) with aura. Treatment-emergent adverse event rates were similar across treatment groups.

Study details: Of 1741 patients with EM/CM from the PROMISE-1 and PROMISE-2 trials, this post hoc analysis included 877 patients who self-reported migraine with aura at screening and received eptinezumab (n = 583) or placebo (n = 294).

Disclosures: Lundbeck Seattle BioPharmaceuticals, Inc., USA, funded the study. Some authors declared serving as consultants, speakers, advisors, or as a primary trial investigator for and receiving personal fees and research support from various sources, including Lundbeck. Some authors are current or former employees of Lundbeck or its subsidiary company.
