BACKGROUND: Efficacy and safety of erenumab have been evaluated in a comprehensive clinical development program resulting in approval for migraine prevention in over 40 countries to date. METHODS: This integrated safety analysis included four double-blind randomized trials and their extensions (up to three-plus years). Safety endpoints included exposure-adjusted patient incidences of adverse events, serious adverse events, and anti-erenumab antibodies. RESULTS: In all, 2375 of the patients randomized across the four studies received at least one dose of erenumab (70 mg or 140 mg), with cumulative exposure of 2641.2 patient-years. Exposure-adjusted adverse event rates during the double-blind treatment phase were similar to placebo, with the exception of injection-site reactions (17.1 vs. 10.8 per 100 patient-years), constipation (7.0 vs. 3.8 per 100 patient-years), and muscle spasm (2.3 vs. 1.2 per 100 patient-years). During the long-term extensions, adverse events reported were similar to those observed during the double-blind treatment phase, and rates of injection site reactions, constipation, and muscle spasm were reported at lower rates than in the double-blind treatment phase. There were two deaths reported, both confounded by pre-existing conditions. CONCLUSIONS: This pooled safety analysis revealed a favorable and stable adverse event profile over time for erenumab with more than three years of exposure. TRIAL REGISTRATION: ClinicalTrials.gov NCT01952574, NCT02483585, NCT02456740, NCT02066415, and NCT02174861.
