Abstract Objective – To evaluate 12‐week changes from baseline of 2 disease‐specific patient‐reported outcome (PRO) measures in adults with migraine treated galcanezumab, an investigational humanized antibody binding calcitonin gene‐related peptide (CGRP), or placebo. Background Preventing headache‐related functional impairment is important goal preventive treatment and a measurement target for PROs. Understanding which drugs have the potential to improve patient functioning addition...
Effects of galcanezumab, a monoclonal antibody against calcitonin gene-related peptide, on patient satisfaction, health care resource utilization (HCRU), and acute medication use were evaluated in long-term, open-label study patients with migraine.Patients episodic (78.9%) or chronic migraine (21.1%) the CGAJ study, an 12-month treatment period. Galcanezumab 120 mg (with loading dose 240 mg) was administered subcutaneously once month during A self-rated scale, Patient Satisfaction Medication...

Patients had ≥6 months continuous enrollment medical pharmacy coverage before after index date (first diagnosis). Three outcomes evaluated: (1)...
To assess the measurement properties of Migraine-Specific Quality Life Questionnaire version 2.1 (MSQv2.1) electronic patient-reported outcome (ePRO) Role Function-Restrictive (RFR) domain to evaluate functional impact migraine in patients with episodic (EM) or chronic (CM) enrolled clinical trials.
Migraine has a severe impact on health-related quality of life (HRQoL) affecting physical, emotional, and social aspects daily living an individual. Preventive treatment been demonstrated to improve HRQoL by reducing the frequency migraine headache days.

Objectives were...
Abstract Purpose To evaluate secondary outcomes including changes in functioning and disability associated with galcanezumab, a humanized monoclonal antibody to calcitonin gene-related peptide, patients chronic migraine. Methods Patients randomly received galcanezumab (120 mg n = 278, 240 277) or placebo ( 558) during 3 months of double-blind treatment, followed by 9-month open-label extension. The Migraine-Specific Quality-of-Life Questionnaire v2.1 (MSQv2.1) measured the impact migraine on...
BACKGROUND: Patients with migraine, particularly multiple prior preventive treatment failures, often have high rates of acute headache medication use and are at risk for overuse (acute or symptomatic between 10 15 days per month [depending on the medication] > 3 months). Furthermore, these patients greater health care resource utilization (HCRU). OBJECTIVE: To examine HCRU galcanezumab compared placebo in a population migraine failures. METHODS: In 3-month double-blind phase, episodic...
