Denna information är endast avsedd för sjukvårdspersonal verksam i Sverige och som svar på din fråga. Informationen nedan är på engelska
No cardiovascular adverse events are listed in the list of adverse events of the summary of product characteristics of Emgality.1
Patients with certain major cardiovascular diseases were excluded from clinical studies. No safety data are available in these patients.1
Evaluation of Cardiovascular Safety in the Migraine Prevention Studies
The CV safety profile of galcanezumab was evaluated in phase 3 randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled studies in adult patients for the prevention of
This pooled analysis of 2886 adult patients included a total of 1435 patients that received monthly doses of galcanezumab (120 mg or 240 mg) administered subcutaneously.5
The majority of patients were female (>80%) and Caucasian (>75%), with a mean age of 41 to 42 years.5
Migraine Prevention: Cardiovascular TEAEs and SAEs
Evaluation of CV TEAEs did not reveal any clinically important differences compared to placebo (Table 1).6 A low proportion of galcanezumab-treated patients and placebo-treated patients reported CV TEAEs across all 9 SMQs, with the highest frequency reported in the Hypertension SMQ. No statistically significant differences were observed between both galcanezumab dose groups and placebo in any SMQ based on the narrow scope preferred terms.
There were no significant differences between galcanezumab and placebo in the frequency of CV SAEs or discontinuations due to CV TEAEs.5-7

Migraine Prevention: Exposure-Adjusted Incidence Rates for CV TEAEs
There were no significant differences between any galcanezumab dose group and placebo in the EAIRs for the 9 SMQs and associated preferred terms in the phase 3, placebo-controlled analysis set.7
In the longer-term analysis sets up to 12 months, there were no increases in the EAIRs with longer treatment duration for CV TEAEs.7
