In this review, the authors provide an overview of erenumab, a monoclonal antibody used for the preventative treatment of episodic migraine by targeting the CGRP pathway. Randomized controlled trials have...


Conclusion/Relevance: In this review, the authors provide an overview of erenumab, a monoclonal antibody used for the preventative treatment of episodic migraine by targeting the CGRP pathway. Randomized controlled trials have shown that erenumab is associated with a statistically significant decrease in monthly migraine days in patients with...

Association between patent foramen ovale and migraine without aura: a community-based cross-sectional study in China

Association between patent foramen ovale and migraine without aura: a community-based cross-sectional study in China

Source : https://bmjopen.bmj.com/content/12/3/e056937

Objectives To assess the influence of patent foramen ovale (PFO) on the prevalence of migraine without aura based on propensity score-matched samples in Southwest China. Design Propensity-matched cross-sectional study. Participants...


Conclusion:This community-based cross-sectional study pointed to a strong association between PFO and migraine without aura, especially when the shunt is large.

Resumption of migraine preventive treatment with CGRP(-receptor) antibodies after a 3-month drug holiday: a real-world experience - The Journal of Headache and Pain

Resumption of migraine preventive treatment with CGRP(-receptor) antibodies after a 3-month drug holiday: a real-world experience - The Journal of Headache and Pain

Source : https://thejournalofheadacheandpain.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s10194-022-01417-9

Background Migraine frequency increases after the cessation of successful preventive treatment with CGRP(-receptor) monoclonal antibodies (mAbs). In this study, we aimed to evaluate the course of migraine after treatment resumption....


Conclusions: Reinitiation of treatment with CGRP(-R) mAbs after a drug holiday leads to a significant reduction of migraine frequency and medication use as well as improvement in quality of life.
