    Abstract Headaches in children and adolescents have high incidence and prevalence rates, with consequent elevated disability costs to individuals and the community. Pediatric migraine is a disorder with substantial clinical differences compared to the adult form. Few clinical trials have been performed specifically on primary headache in pediatric populations using acute and preventative treatments, often with conflicting findings. The limited high-quality data on the effectiveness of treatments are also due to the high placebo effect, in terms of reductions in both the frequency and intensity of migraine attacks in the pediatric population. The recent introduction of calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) pathway inhibitors and ditans is changing the treatment of migraine, but the majority of the data are still limited to adulthood. Thus, few drugs have indications for migraine treatment in the pediatric age group, and limited evidence gives guidance as to the choice of pharmacotherapy. Herein, we review the current evidence of pharmacological treatments and ongoing clinical trials on acute and preventative treatments in the pediatric population with migraine.

    Abstract Introduction: In 2020, the Italian Medicines Agency (AIFA) approved the reimbursement of calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) pathway monoclonal antibodies (mAbs), including fremanezumab, in patients with a Migraine Disability Assessment Scale (MIDAS) score ≥ 11, with prescription renewals for up to 12 months in patients with ≥ 50% reduction in MIDAS score at Months 3 and 6. In this sub-analysis of the Pan-European Real Life (PEARL) study, we provide real-world data on fremanezumab use in Italian routine clinical practice (EUPAS35111).
    Methods: This first interim analysis for Italy was conducted when 300 enrolled adult patients with episodic or chronic migraine (EM, CM) completed 6 months of treatment with fremanezumab. The primary endpoint is the proportion of patients achieving ≥ 50% reduction in monthly migraine days (MMD) across the 6 months post-fremanezumab initiation. Secondary endpoints include: proportion of patients achieving ≥ 50% reduction in MIDAS score at Months 3 and 6, and mean change from baseline across Months 1-6 in MMD and headache-related disability. Safety was assessed through adverse events (AEs) reported.
    Results: Of 354 patients enrolled at Italian centers, 318 (EM, 35.5%, CM, 64.5%) were included in the effectiveness analysis. Of patients with available data, 109 (61.2%) achieved the primary endpoint. 61.0% and 65.1% achieved ≥ 50% reduction in MMDs at Months 3 and 6, respectively; 79.9% and 81.0% experienced ≥ 50% reduction in MIDAS at the same timepoints.
    Conclusion: Fremanezumab was effective and well-tolerated over the first 6 months of treatment, with approximately 80% of patients meeting Italian criteria for treatment continuation at Months 3 and 6.

    Abstract A large series of different ion channels have been identified and investigated as potential targets for new medicines for the treatment of a variety of human diseases, including pain. Among these channels, the voltage gated calcium channels (VGCC) are inhibited by drugs for the treatment of migraine, neuropathic pain or intractable pain. Transient receptor potential (TRP) channels are emerging as important pain transducers as they sense low pH media or oxidative stress and other mediators and are abundantly found at sites of inflammation or tissue injury. Low pH may also activate acid sensing ion channels (ASIC) and mechanical forces stimulate the PIEZO channels. While potent agonists of TRP channels due to their desensitizing action on pain transmission are used as topical applications, the potential of TRP antagonists as pain therapeutics remains an exciting field of investigation. The study of ASIC or PIEZO channels in pain signaling is in an early stage, whereas antagonism of the purinergic P2X

    Abstract The transient receptor potential ankyrin 1 (TRPA1), a member of the TRP superfamily of channels, has a major role in different types of pain. TRPA1 is primarily localized to a subpopulation of primary sensory neurons of the trigeminal, vagal, and dorsal root ganglia. This subset of nociceptors produces and releases the neuropeptide substance P (SP) and calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP), which mediate neurogenic inflammation. TRPA1 is characterized by unique sensitivity for an unprecedented number of reactive byproducts of oxidative, nitrative, and carbonylic stress and to be activated by several chemically heterogenous, exogenous, and endogenous compounds. Recent preclinical evidence has revealed that expression of TRPA1 is not limited to neurons, but its functional role has been reported in central and peripheral glial cells. In particular, Schwann cell TRPA1 was recently implicated in sustaining mechanical and thermal (cold) hypersensitivity in mouse models of macrophage-dependent and macrophage-independent inflammatory, neuropathic, cancer, and migraine pain. Some analgesics and herbal medicines/natural products widely used for the acute treatment of pain and headache have shown some inhibitory action at TRPA1. A series of high affinity and selective TRPA1 antagonists have been developed and are currently being tested in phase I and phase II clinical trials for different diseases with a prominent pain component.

    Abstract Migraine and epilepsy are fundamentally distinct disorders that can frequently coexist in the same patient. These two conditions significantly differ in diagnosis and therapy but share some widely- used preventive treatments. Antiseizure medications (ASMs) are the mainstay of therapy for epilepsy, and about thirty different ASMs are available to date. ASMs are widely prescribed for other neurological and non-neurological conditions, including migraine. However, only topiramate and valproic acid/valproate currently have an indication for migraine prophylaxis supported by high-quality evidence. Although without specifically approved indications and with a low level of evidence or recommendation, several other ASMs are used for migraine prophylaxis. Understanding ASM antimigraine mechanisms, including their ability to affect the pro-migraine calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) signaling pathway and other pathways, may be instrumental in identifying the specific targets of their antimigraine efficacy and may increase awareness of the neurobiological differences between epilepsy and migraine. Several new ASMs are under clinical testing or have been approved for epilepsy in recent years, providing novel potential drugs for migraine prevention to enrich the treatment armamentarium and drugs that inhibit the CGRP pathway.
