Özet

Objective: This real-word study aimed to investigate the impact of galcanezumab on migraine outcome, sleep and multidimensional patient-reported outcomes measures (PROMs) in patients with episodic migraine (EM) and chronic migraine (CM). Methods: A total of 54 patients (mean SD age: 38.3 10.1 years; 90.7% were female) diagnosed with EM (n¼ 24) or CM (n¼ 30) who received galcanezumab injection series over a 3-month period were included in this single-center real-word prospective cohort study. Galcanezumab was administered at a loading dose (240 mg) at baseline visit, and then at 120 mg dose on a monthly basis during 1st to 3rd month visits. Migraine outcome was evaluated based on monthly headache days (MHDs), monthly migraine days (MMDs) and headache severity. The sleep was assessed by Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), PROMs included Migraine Disability Assessment Scale (MIDAS), Headache Impact Test-6 (HIT-6), Allodynia Symptom Checklist (ASC-12), SF-36 Health-related Quality of Life (HRQoL), Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI) and Beck Depression Inventory (BDI). Results: From baseline to 1st, 2nd and 3rd months, galcanezumab significantly improved median (IQR) MHDs, MMDs, headache severity (p < 0.001). Total PSQI scores were significantly decreased from baseline to 3rd month in subgroups of patients with low anxiety at baseline (p ¼ 0.002) and none/minimal depression (p ¼ 0.003) at baseline. Total PSQI score (p < 0.001), sleep latency (p ¼ 0.018), sleep disturbances (p ¼ 0.015) and daytime dysfunction (p ¼ 0.003) in the overall population were also significantly decreased. PROMs were significantly improved from baseline to 1st, 2nd and 3rd months, including MIDAS (p < 0.001), HIT-6 (p < 0.001 for each), ACS-12 (p ¼ 0.005, p ¼ 0.017 and p ¼ 0.002), BAI (p < 0.001 for each), BDI (p ¼ 0.048, p < 0.001 and p < 0.001) and SF-36 HRQoL (p ranged 0.012 to <0.001). Conclusion: Galcanezumab seems to be a promising and effective agent for migraine prophylaxis in real life setting of CM or EM, enabling rapid-onset improvements in migraine outcome, sleep problems especially in patients without comorbid depression and/or anxiety, and in multidimensional PROMs including HIT-6, MIDAS, MBSs, allodynia, HRQoL and negative emotional states.
