“…From the RWE point of view, the new treatments go under the “crash test”, administered in patients with comorbidities and those highly refractory to treatments. Furthermore, real-world data from a cohort study including adolescents with refractory headache disorders revealed a treatment benefit [ 99 ]. This is encouraging as pediatric patients do not have many therapeutic options in their arsenal so far.…”

“…Another new study by Greene et al 73 showed that adolescents (mean age 15.9 ± 1.4) with treatment-refractory chronic migraine had significant effect from treatment with anti-CGRP and anti-CGRP receptor mAbs compared with baseline, with 71.5% reporting benefit at first follow-up (mean 2.7 months after initiation of treatment) and 69.8% at second follow-up (mean 4.6 months after initiation of treatment). Although the study was not placebo-controlled, the authors believe that the placebo response would be limited in this group of patients, whose headache had been refractory to multiple outpatient and inpatient treatments.…”

“…Anti-CGRP and anti-CGRP-receptor antibodies have been shown to be effective as migraine prophylaxis. 80 One observational study 73 showed that adolescents with treatment refractory chronic migraine had significant effect from treatment with anti-CGRP and anti-CGRP receptor antibodies. Intravenous injection of CGRP causes migraine in adult migraineurs, [58][59][60] and these attacks are reversible by treatment with triptans.…”

“…However, in an open multicentre retrospective chart review, 112 adolescents who had received at least one dose of a CGRP ligand/receptor antibody were analysed [ 24 ]. Mean age at first dose was 15.9 years.…”
