The European Regulatory Authorities approved
this medication one month after its authorisation in the USA for the management
of migraine attacks.
European regulatory authorities approved the
Galcanezumab manufacturing and sale for the management of migraine attacks.
Migraine is a brain disorder with high disability rates due to the sequence of
irregular neuronal networks, communicating at varying levels of the peripheral and
central nervous system. Calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) is broadly
exposed at the peripheral and central nervous system and works as a sensory
neurotransmitter, the mediator of neurogenic inflammation, vasodilator, and can
be implicated in the pathophysiology of migraine.
The range of possible therapies for migraine
prevention has developed over time. Galcanezumab is a monoclonal antibody
particular for the CGRP protein, a vital protein for cluster headache and
migraine development. The patients can self-administrate the Galcanezumab
injection once a month. Most of the migraineurs exhibited a 50% reduction in
the migraine frequency by having the course of Galcanezumab. Moreover, more
than one-third of CI participants showed a 72% reduction in the number of
attacks as compared to 18% in the placebo group.
