Key clinical point: Lasmiditan, rimegepant, and ubrogepant demonstrated superior efficacy over placebo for the acute treatment of migraine attacks, with lasmiditan being the most effective at high doses but with higher odds of adverse events.
Major finding: Compared with placebo, 200 mg lasmiditan (odds ratio [OR] 2.88; 95% CI 2.22-3.73), followed by 100 mg lasmiditan (OR 2.28; 95% CI 1.75-2.96), rimegepant (OR 2.0; 95% CI 1.45-2.75), and 100 mg ubrogepant (OR 1.97; 95% CI 1.27-3.07) were more efficacious for achieving pain freedom at 2 hours post-dose before the use of any rescue medication. However, the odds of dizziness, nausea, and somnolence were greater with all doses of lasmiditan.
Study details: This network meta-analysis of seven phase 3 randomized controlled trials included 12,859 patients with migraine
