Key clinical point: Patients with migraine who switched one or multiple times among available anti-calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) monoclonal antibody (mAb) treatments showed lower treatment response and higher disease burden than those who adhered to one anti-CGRP mAb treatment.
Major finding: Overall, 73.1% patients did not switch their anti-CGRP mAb, while 20.6% switched once, 5.4% switched twice, and 0.9% switched three or more times. The ≥50% response rate for monthly migraine days was 64.7% in patients who did not switch among anti-CGRP mAb, but it worsened in those who switched once (50.7%) or twice (25.0%) during their last treatment cycle.
Study details: This real-world retrospective study used data from the Neuro TransData registry and included 655 patients with migraine who received at least one anti-CGRP mAb.
Disclosures: The authors did not disclose any source of funding. The authors declared no competing interests.
