Efficacy of lasmiditan, rimegepant and ubrogepant for acute treatment of migraine in triptan insufficient responders: systematic review and network meta-analysis.

Background: Novel abortive treatments for migraine, ditans and gepants, have promising implications in triptan-insufficient responders with minimal existing comparative data. Our study aims to synthesize evidence through a systematic review and network meta-analysis to assess the comparative efficacy of lasmiditan, rimegepant and ubrogepant in triptan-insufficient responders.

Method: We searched PubMed, Embase, CENTRAL, and EBSCO Open Dissertations up to May 2024.
