Human provocation studies have shown that pramlintide, an amylin analogue, triggers migraine attacks, but it remains unclear whether plasma amylin distinguishes people with migraine from HCs, varies across migraine subtypes, predicts response to erenumab, or changes during treatment.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This prospective longitudinal analysis was conducted within the Registry for Migraine study at the Danish Headache Center (Copenhagen, Denmark). Adults with migraine (\u22654 monthly migraine days) and age\u2010 and sex\u2010similar HCs were enrolled between September 2020 and June 2022. Plasma samples were collected under standardized conditions at baseline and after 24\u2009weeks of erenumab treatment (140\u2009mg every 4\u2009weeks). Treatment response was defined as a \u226550% reduction in monthly migraine days during weeks 13 to 24 compared with baseline. Plasma amylin was quantified from November 2023 to March 2024 using a competitive immunoassay that was selected after head\u2010to\u2010head kit validation, which included assessment of parallelism and spike recovery with human plasma.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      A total of 121 adults with migraine and 63 HCs were enrolled; 100 participants with migraine completed 24\u2009weeks of erenumab treatment and provided evaluable efficacy data.

Baseline plasma amylin concentrations did not differ across migraine subgroups (episodic vs. chronic, with aura vs. without aura, ictal vs. interictal) and were not associated with key clinical variables.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Plasma amylin levels did not differ between adults with migraine and HCs, across clinically relevant migraine subgroups, or by response to erenumab. These findings do not support plasma amylin as a clinically useful disease or treatment\u2010response biomarker and are consistent with the broader concept that migraine\u2010relevant peptidergic
