Are we closer to achieving precision medicine for migraine treatment? A narrative review
Abstract
BACKGROUND: The term 'precision medicine' encompasses strategies to optimize diagnosis and outcome prediction and to tailor treatment for individual patients, in consideration of their unique characteristics. The greater availability of multifaceted datasets and strategies to model such data have made precision medicine increasingly possible in recent years. Precision medicine is especially needed in the migraine field since the response to migraine treatments is not universal amongst all individuals with migraine. OBJECTIVE: To provide a narrative review describing contributions to achieving precision medicine for migraine treatment. METHODS: A search of PubMed for English language articles of human participants published from 2005 to January 2024 was conducted to identify articles that reported research contributing to precision medicine for migraine treatment. The published literature was categorized and summarized according to the type of data that were included: clinical phenotypes, genomics, proteomics, physiologic measures, and brain imaging. RESULTS: Published studies have investigated characteristics associated with acute and preventive treatment responses, such as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, triptans, onabotulinumtoxinA, and anti-calcitonin gene-related peptide monoclonal antibodies, in patients with episodic or chronic migraine. There is evidence that clinical, genetic, epigenetic, proteomic, physiologic, and brain imaging features might associate with…
