Pharmacology
Sumatriptan is a selective 5-HT1B/1D receptor agonist that constricts intracranial blood vessels and inhibits pro-inflammatory neuropeptide release from the trigeminal system, relieving migraine headache.
Eptinezumab-jjmr is a humanized IgG1 monoclonal antibody that binds to calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) ligand and blocks its binding to the receptor, thereby preventing CGRP-mediated effects relevant to migraine.
