P3 data, Journal: Reducing the physical, social, and emotional impact of episodic migraine: Results from erenumab STRIVE and ARISE phase III randomized trials. (Pubmed Central) - Mar 11, 2022 The MFIQ measures the frequency of impacts and level of difficulty on multiple functional domains that provide a more complete picture of the effects of migraine. MFIQ scores showed that in comparison with placebo, patients treated with erenumab had greater reductions in the functional impact of migraine, providing insight into treatment benefits that extend beyond improvements in clinical status and health-related quality of life previously reported based on clinical end points and other PROs.

Comparative Cost-Effectiveness and Cost-Utility Analyses of Erenumab and Topiramate for the Prophylaxis of Patients with Episodic Migraine (Virtual) - Mar 8, 2022 - Abstract #ISPOR2022ISPOR_1580; ClinicalTrials.gov Identifiers: NCT01952574, NCT02456740, NCT02483585, NTCT02066415, and NCT02174861. In terms of cost-effectiveness, the treatment with subcutaneous Erenumab at 70-140 mg/month was dominated by oral topiramate at 50-100 mg/day; notwithstanding, in terms of utility, Erenumab provided on average nearly four months of Quality of Life to patients with EM, although its cost-utility ratio would require a better price to make it a favorable option for Colombian Health System.

There were statistically significant reductions in migraine-related HCRU and healthcare costs in patients with common comorbidities, AMO, or DTTM and prior erenumab exposure initiating fremanezumab treatment.

Rimegepant Versus Atogepant and Monoclonal Antibody Treatments for the Prevention of Migraine: A Systematic Literature Review and Network Meta-analysis ([VIRTUAL]) - Mar 6, 2022 - Abstract #AAN2022AAN_2045; The evidence base consisted of placebo-controlled trials in patients with episodic migraine, for FDA approved doses of the following treatments: rimegepant, atogepant, erenumab, galcanezumab, eptinezumab, and fremanezumab. Rimegepant, atogepant, and mAbs were all effective treatment options for the prevention of migraine when compared vs placebo and generally showed similar effects when compared to one another.

Rimegepant, atogepant, and mAbs were all effective treatment options for the prevention of migraine when compared vs placebo and generally showed similar effects when compared to one another. Although all doses of anti-CGRP mAbs have comparable efficacy, safety and tolerability based on uncertainties in indirect comparisons for all outcomes, the calculated effect estimates numerically favored high doses of subcutaneous fremanezumab and intravenous eptinezumab as the effective therapy with acceptable safety and tolerability for short term prevention of chronic migraine.

These results suggest that erenumab is well tolerated, and its uptake as a new class of prophylactic treatment for migraine in real-world clinical practice is not likely to be undermined by poor persistence when coverage for erenumab is easily available.

Network meta-analysis results suggested that in the comparison of the average migraine days per month, Erenumab (140 mg), Galcanezumab (120 mg, 240 mg), Fremanezumab (225 mg, 675 mg) were superior to placebo, Erenumab(7 mg), and the difference was statistically significant; Fremanezumab (225 mg, 675 mg) was superior to Erenumab (21 mg, 70 mg), and the difference was statistically significant; in the comparison of average medication days of acute migraine-specific drug per month, Erenumab (70 mg, 140 mg), Galcanezumab (120 mg, 240 mg), Fremanezumab (225 mg, 675 mg) was superior to placebo, and Erenumab (140 mg) and Galcanezumab (120 mg, 240 mg) were superior to Erenumab (70 mg), and the difference was statistically significant; there was no statistically significant difference in the average migraine days in the last month or in the medication days of acute migraine-specific drug. Fremanezumab (225 mg) and Galcanezumab (120 mg) may be the best clinical protocol after a comprehensive assessment.

(Pubmed Central) - Jan 29, 2022 The motor-stimulating and prosecretory actions of CGRP combine in accelerating intestinal transit, an activity profile that has been confirmed by the ability of CGRP to induce diarrhea in mice, dogs and humans. We therefore conclude that the constipation elicited by antibodies targeting CGRP or its receptor results from interference with the physiological function of CGRP in the small and large intestine in which it contributes to the maintenance of peristaltic motor activity, ion and water secretion and intestinal transit.
