Key clinical point: Eptinezumab (100 and 300 mg) was efficacious compared with placebo with an acceptable safety and tolerability profile in patients with episodic and chronic migraine and 2-4 previous unsuccessful preventive treatments.

 

Major finding: In 1-12 weeks, 100 and 300 mg eptinezumab vs placebo led to a significantly higher reduction in mean monthly migraine days (difference from placebo 2.7 and 3.2, respectively; both P < .0001) and higher odds of 75% migraine responder rates (odds ratio 9.2 and 11.4, respectively; both P < .0001), with comparable treatment-emergent adverse events.

 

Study details: Findings are from the phase 3b DELIVER trial including 892 patients with episodic and chronic migraine and 2-4 previous unsuccessful preventive treatments who were randomly assigned to receive eptinezumab (100 or 300 mg) or placebo.

 

Disclosures: This study was supported by H Lundbeck. Five authors reported being full-time employees or owning stock or stock options in H Lundbeck or its subsidiaries. Several authors reported ties with various sources and scientific journals.
