Migraine – Landscape & Forecast – Disease Landscape & Forecast

Migraine, which afflicts approximately 73 million people in the major pharmaceutical markets, according to Clarivate Epidemiology, is a heterogeneous condition requiring individualized treatment based largely on a patient’s symptoms and needs, headache pattern, comorbidities, contraindications, and treatment history. With the launch of calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP)-targeted, migraine-specific treatment alternatives to standard-of-care (SOC) therapies (e.g., anti-CGRP MAbs for migraine prevention, oral CGRP receptor antagonists for both the treatment of acute migraine attacks and migraine prevention) and the expected launches of several innovative reformulations of SOC therapies in the near term in the United States, brand choice has rapidly expanded in this heavily generic market. Understanding the intersecting forces of unmet need, cost/coverage, and the headwinds posed by low-cost, early-line SOC treatments will be key to the success of current and future players in the migraine market.

Questions Answered:

  • What events will shape the future of the acute/preventive and episodic/chronic market segments?
  • How are the anti-CGRP monoclonal antibodies (e.g., Aimovig, Emgality) and oral gepants (i.e., Nurtec ODT / Vydura, Qulipta) being integrated into the generic-dominant migraine prophylaxis market? Which brands will be the most competitive and why?
  • What is the dynamic between Ubrelvy and Nurtec ODT in the U.S. market? How are oral gepants being adopted into the triptan-dominant acute segment?
  • How will novel reformulations compete for patient share with existing options in the niche segment of patients who need non-oral alternatives?
