To better understand potential immunogenic risks and off-target toxicities of the anti-CGRP monoclonal antibodies, this review discusses immunology and CGRP and reviews IgG structure and function, monoclonal antibody production, ligand-antigen-antibody relationships, and clinical CGRP mAb specifics. Upon completion, the reader should better summarize CGRP antagonist fundamentals, recall antibody structure and function, restate therapeutic mAbs attributes, and appraise immunogenic risks.

Gepants are a safe alternative to triptans for the acute management of migraine and are currently being tested for prevention, thus representing the first transitional molecules for disease therapy. In the future, it might be possible to adapt the treatment according to patients' characteristics and disease phenotype even combining the two treatments targeting the CGRP pathway.

Clinical, Journal: Vascular safety of erenumab for migraine prevention. (Pubmed Central) - May 19, 2020 P1, P2, P3 Selective blockade of the canonical calcitonin gene-related peptide receptor with erenumab for migraine prevention had a vascular safety profile comparable to that of placebo over 12 weeks, with no increased emergence of events over time. Further study of long-term safety of erenumab in patients with migraine is needed.

[VIRTUAL] Erenumab in real life: a multicentric italian observational study (Room Oslo) - Apr 9, 2020 - Abstract #EAN2020EAN_1602; The data confirm erenumab efficacy in migraine prophylaxis. Over 70% of patients documented a significant progressive and sustained improvement, from week 4 to week 36, in headache days, analgesics consumption, pain intensity and migraine related disability.

[VIRTUAL] Treatment with Onabotulinumtoxin A versus Erenumab for Patients with Acquired/Post-traumatic Chronic Migraine (Room Oslo) - Apr 9, 2020 - Abstract #EAN2020EAN_1600; Over 70% of patients documented a significant progressive and sustained improvement, from week 4 to week 36, in headache days, analgesics consumption, pain intensity and migraine related disability. Both onabotulinumtoxin A and erenumab appear to be safe and well-tolerated treatments for acquired/ posttraumatic chronic migraine, and with either treatment over a period of 6 months approximately half of patients will experience a meaningful reduction in monthly headache frequency.
