Refractory chronic migraine is a disabling disorder impacting quality of life. BOTOX ® (Onabotulinumtoxin A) is approved as a prophylactic treatment of chronic migraine in patients unresponsive to at least three prior preventive treatments. The objective of this study was to determine the prophylactic effect of 145 U XEOMIN ® (Incobotulinumtoxin A) injected at 31 specific sites in adult patients with refractory chronic migraine. Sixty-one patients (8 men and 53 women, mean age 50) with migraine were recruited, including 20 patients with isolated chronic migraine, 18 patients with chronic migraine associating tension-type headache, 12 patients with migraine associating medication overuse headache , and 11 patients with episodic disabling migraine. The mean number of injections and duration of treatment per patient was 3.5 (range 2⁻13) and 21 (6⁻68) months, respectively. From baseline to first injection, 44 patients (73%) had &gt;50% reduction in frequency of migraine episodes, 29 patients (48%) showed &gt;50% reduction in number of headache days, and 28 patients (46%) had a &gt;50% reduction in drug intake. Stable response for all three parameters was observed after the last injection. XEOMIN ® thus seems to represent an effective and sustained prophylactic treatment of chronic migraine.
