Since 2018, seven novel drugs have entered the U.S. market for the acute or preventive treatment of migraine, and at least four more are on the short-term horizon. Understanding how prescribers perceive and plan to incorporate new brands in the evolving migraine treatment paradigm is critical for developers entering a heavily generic and increasingly saturated market. In the acute segment, we will assess the relative familiarity, uptake, and performance of recent oral entrants (Reyvow, gepants) on key attributes and examine physicians’ awareness, perceptions, and future adoption of near-to-market reformulations. In the prevention segment, we will examine preferences for, opinions of, and drivers of / constraints on prescribing within the anti-CGRP MAb class and assess physicians’ receptivity to new oral CGRP receptor antagonists (atogepant, Nurtec ODT).
