Expert Rev Neurother. 2024 Apr 1:1-9. doi: 10.1080/14737175.2024.2332754. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTINTRODUCTION: Calcitonin Gene-Related Peptide (CGRP)-targeted therapy has revolutionized migraine treatment since its first approval in 2018. CGRP-targeted therapy includes monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) and gepants, which modulate trigeminal nociceptive and inflammatory responses, alleviating pain sensitization involved in migraine pathogenesis. CGRP-targeted therapy is effective not only for migraine but also for other chronic headache disorders that share the CGRP pathway.AREAS COVERED: The authors review the latest dev...
