The Impact of Anti-Calcitonin Gene-Related Peptide Monoclonal Antibodies on Sleep Quality and Daytime Sleepiness in Migraine Patients: A Multicenter Study

Purpose: This study aimed to determine whether patients with migraine experience improvements in self-reported sleep quality and daytime sleepiness after starting monoclonal antibody (mAb) therapy targeting the calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) or its receptor, and to explore the association between treatment efficacy and improvements in sleep quality.Methods: This prospective, multicenter, observational, longitudinal study was conducted across 12 headache centers. Adults with episodic or chronic migraine who began anti-CGRP mAb therapy were assessed at baseline, 3 months, and 6 months. Sleep quality and daytime sleepiness were evaluated using the Portuguese version of the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI-PT) and the Portuguese version of the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS-PT), respectively. Results: Of 118 enrolled patients, 109 completed the study (86.4% female; mean age, 43.6 years). A significant improvement in sleep quality was observed, with median PSQI-PT scores decreasing from 9 at baseline to 6 at 6 months (p
