A Real-World Study of CGRP Monoclonal Antibodies for Migraine: Long-Term Effectiveness and Treatment Adherence. [PDF]
In our 24‐month real‐world study, the mean monthly migraine days (MMDs) significantly decreased from baseline by 6.8, 7.9, 8.7, and 10.0 days at Months 3, 6, 12, and 24, respectively (all p < 0.001). Significant reductions were also observed across all time points in both episodic migraine and chronic migraine subgroups.
