If approved in Europe, atogepant would provide patients with a new acute treatment option for migraine attacks.
The first once-per-day oral CGRP receptor antagonist gepant treatment has been approved in the EU as a preventative treatment for both chronic and episodic migraines.
Initial data from study results being presented at the 75th American Academy of Neurology Annual Meeting indicate that an oral CGRP inhibitor reduced episodic migraine frequency.
AbbVie releases promising results from its Phase III trial of atogepant (Qulipta™) for preventative treatment of chronic migraine.
A 12-week study revealed that atogepant reduced migraines and headaches and resulted in a 50 percent reduction in mean monthly migraine days.
