|
Headache outpatient clinic of the University Medical Center Hamburg
Treatment duration: 4 weeks
|
Adult patients who have been diagnosed with migraine based on the ICHD-3 criteria, are scheduled to receive Erenumab 70 mg as per national guidelines and have not previously used CGRP-antibody treatments.
|
There was a higher decrease in headache frequency in the Erenumab group than the placebo group. Additionally, for the ≥ 50% responder rate, the Erenumab group had better response results.

Phase 4, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter trial with a crossover design
|
This trial took place in five Headache Centers in Italy starting from 30 July 2019 until 5 July 2021. Treatment duration: 24 weeks (patients received either Erenumab 140 mg or placebo for 12 weeks, followed by a 12-week crossover).
|
Eligible participants are adults aged 18 to 65 who have experienced migraines with or without aura for at least 12 months, with a frequency between 4 to < 15 migraine days per month and headache days fewer than 15 per month over the past three months, as confirmed by a headache diary. Additionally, candidates must have previously failed at least two treatment categories for migraine prevention because of the lack of effectiveness or poor tolerability.
|
Erenumab resulted in a greater reduction in HIT-6 and MMD at month 3 than placebo, with P values 0·0001 and < 0·0001, respectively. The only notable treatment-emergent adverse events were constipation and upper respiratory tract infection.

Phase 3, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of Erenumab.
|
The trial was conducted at 64 sites in 9 countries in Asia or areas including India, China, Malaysia, the Republic of Korea, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, Taiwan, and Vietnam. Treatment duration: 12 weeks
|
Adults aged between 18 and 65 years with a history of CM, lasting ≥ 12 months before screening, as defined by ICHD-3. To qualify for randomization, patients needed to have a history of ≥ 15 headache days per month, of which at least 8 days have to meet the criteria for migraine days, as recorded in their eDiary during the baseline period.
|
Erenumab exhibited a better reduction in MMD (3 months) than placebo (P = 0.015). Additionally, a greater percentage of Erenumab group experienced a ≥ 50% reduction in MMD (3 months) compared to the placebo group (P = 0.014). Constipation and upper respiratory tract infections were the most common adverse events.
