Utilization patterns, cardiovascular risk, and concomitant serotoninergic medications among triptan users between 2008 and 2018: A gender analysis in one Italian region, Tuscany

Giulia Hyeraci et al.

Summary: This study investigated the use of triptans in the Tuscany region of Italy, focusing on special user populations with inconclusive evidence on triptan safety. The results showed a higher proportion of female and older (>65 years) patients using triptans. Among these users, some had cardiovascular contraindications or possible contraindications and a certain proportion concurrently used serotonergic medications. Furthermore, women were more likely to use triptans long-term, while men were more likely to be frequent users.

Switching anti-CGRP(R) monoclonal antibodies in multi-assessed non-responder patients and implications for ineffectiveness criteria: A retrospective cohort study

Luigi Francesco Iannone et al.

Summary: This study assessed the treatment response of patients who failed to respond to one monoclonal antibody to another. The results showed that switching to a second monoclonal antibody improved symptoms in some patients after three months of treatment. Therefore, switching anti-calcitonin gene related peptide monoclonal antibodies might be an effective treatment option for selected patients.

Maintenance of response and predictive factors of 1-year GalcanezumAb treatment in real-life migraine patients in Italy: The multicenter prospective cohort GARLIT study

Fabrizio Vernieri et al.

Summary: This study evaluated the 1-year effectiveness and tolerability of galcanezumab in real-life treatment of high-frequency episodic and chronic migraine. The results showed that a majority of patients experienced a significant reduction in monthly migraine days for at least 9 months. Triptan response, lower body mass index, and an early reduction in migraine days were identified as predictive factors for a persistent response.

Long-Term Effectiveness of Three Anti-CGRP Monoclonal Antibodies in Resistant Chronic Migraine Patients Based on the MIDAS score

Luigi Francesco Iannone et al.

Summary: This study evaluated the effectiveness and safety of three monoclonal antibodies against the calcitonin gene-related peptide pathway (erenumab, galcanezumab, and fremanezumab) in patients with resistant chronic migraine. The results showed that all three anti-CGRP mAbs were effective and safe, with a high percentage of patients achieving a ≥ 50% reduction in Migraine Disability Assessment (MIDAS) score.

Lynda J. Krasenbaum et al.

Summary: This study examined the real-world clinical characteristics and treatment patterns among patients initiating fremanezumab therapy for the prevention of migraine. The results showed high adherence and persistence to fremanezumab, with quarterly use associated with higher rates of adherence and persistence. Patients who were persistent for >= 6 months experienced significant reductions in acute and preventive migraine medication use, and some patients with comorbid depression and anxiety showed significant reductions in antidepressant and anxiolytic medication use.

Real-life assessment of erenumab in refractory chronic migraine with medication overuse headache

Umberto Pensato et al.

Summary: The study found that erenumab significantly reduced migraine frequency and pain medication intake in refractory chronic migraine patients with medication overuse headache. After 3 months, 51% of patients experienced a reduction of at least 50% in monthly headache days, with 20% experiencing a reduction of at least 75%. Allodynia was identified as a negative predictive factor for erenumab response, while 64% of patients clinically converted to episodic migraine without medication overuse.

Calcitonin gene-related peptide-targeting drugs for migraine: how pharmacology might inform treatment decisions

Linda Al-Hassany et al.

Summary: Migraine is the second most disabling disorder worldwide, and the pharmacology and clinical effects of CGRP-targeted drugs are not fully understood. Factors such as sex, body-mass index, age, and ethnic background may affect the pharmacokinetics of these treatments, particularly Gepants. Patient characteristics may play a more prominent role in the management of migraine as more is learned about CGRP-targeted therapies.

Fremanezumab for the Preventive Treatment of Migraine: Subgroup Analysis by Number of Prior Preventive Treatments with Inadequate Response

Ladislav Pazdera et al.

Summary: The study evaluated the efficacy of monthly or quarterly fremanezumab in patients with chronic or episodic migraine who had inadequate response to 2 to 4 prior migraine preventive medications. Results showed significant improvements in efficacy with fremanezumab compared to placebo, even in patients who had previously experienced inadequate response to 4 different classes of migraine preventive medications. No significant treatment-by-subgroup interactions were observed, and adverse events were comparable between placebo and fremanezumab.
