Key clinical point: Prophylactic migraine therapy with calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) antibodies showed sustained benefits in patients with migraine and medication overuse headache (MOH) or medication overuse (MO) for up to a year.
Major findings: All patients, including those with episodic migraine (EM) with MO, EM without MO, chronic migraine (CM) with MOH, or CM without MOH, had significant reductions in monthly headache days, monthly migraine days, and acute medication days at the last observation timepoint within the first year of CGRP therapy from baseline (all P < .0001). Relapse rates were lower (15.4%) in patients with CM with MOH after successful initiation of CGRP treatment.
Study details: This retrospective real-world analysis included 112 patients with EM (35 with MO and 77 without MO) and 179 patients with CM (109 with MOH and 70 without MOH).
Disclosures: This study was funded by Projekt DEAL. Some authors declared receiving travel fees, honoraria, or scientific support from or serving as consultants or advisors for various sources.
