Summary of the Proposed Research:
Migraine is a highly prevalent headache disorders and a major public health problem world wide. A project collecting data from nine European countries reported a one-year prevalence as high as 35% after sex adjustment. China was reported with a one-year prevalence of 9%, the lowest in global countries. Migraine is the second leading cause of disability although there has been considerable progress in diagnosis and treatment, and it contributes to 5.6% of the global disease burden.
The preventive treatment of migraine is of great interest to clinical practitioners. Calcitonin gene-related peptide monocolonal antibodies (CGRP mAbs) are a new class of preventive treatment for migraine, and galcanezumab is one of the CGRP mAbs that excert a significantly better treatment effect than placebo. With the generalization of galcanezumab into clinical practice, the practitioners are keen to know the predictive factors for the treatment effect of galcanezumab in order to make clinical decisions in whether a patient should be recommended for the treatment of galcanezumab. Little has been reported about the predictors of the effect of galcanezumab in the treatment of migraine. We therefore aim to review the clinical data from previously published trials of galcanezumab.
