New Flu And Migraine Drugs Approved By FDA On Scant Scientific Data, Raising Concerns: Report

According to a new report that looked at emerging safety risks linked to the flu drug Xofluza and three migraine medications, Aimovig, Ajovy and Emgality, federal regulators may not have required robust enough clinical trials before approving the medications for use on the public.

The Institute for Safe Medication Practices (ISMP) issued a QuarterWatch report last week, which indicates that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) should have required more in-depth clinical trials on a number of new medications, instead of leaving their safety profiles up to post-marketing surveillance, which some critics say uses the public as guinea pigs.

One of those drugs was Xofluxa (baloxavir marboxil), approved by the FDA in October 2018. It is the first new antiviral treatment for influenza in almost 20 years, and is marketed by Genentech. However, the report notes that the FDA approved Xofluxa after it had been tested on only 710 patients.

Change Healthcare Data Breach Impacts Millions of Customers

The third, and most crucial phase of testing only involved 113 patients in North America, of which only 18 were African Americans and only 32 were Hispanics. The racial differences may be important, because there is evidence that the benefits differed between Japanese and North American test subjects.

Since the drug was approved, there have been at least 50 cases of potentially life-threatening allergic reactions reported to the FDA’s adverse event reporting system (FAERS), including three deaths. There have also been reports of central nervous system problems, and gastrointestinal complications. Most of the reports came from Japan, where use was more widespread.

“Given that potentially millions of people might be exposed to a new flu treatment, the limited clinical testing for FDA approval left questions unanswered about both benefits and risks,” ISMP researchers warned.

ISMP researchers reached out to Genentech, which confirmed it has seen a safety signal for hypersensitivity, including anaphylactic shock, and is currently monitoring the reports.

Benefits of New Migraine Drug Class Highly Variable

The ISMP also looked at an entirely new class of migraine biological medications, including Aimovig (erenumab-aooe), by Amgen, approved in May 2018; Ajovy (fremanezumab-vfrm), by Teva Pharmaceuticals, approved in September 2018, and Emgality (galcanezumab-gnlm), by Eli Lilly, which was also approved in September 2018. All of the drugs block the effects of a signaling molecule believed to play a role in migraines.

“One striking feature of these new products was large variability in their effects. The results ranged from no effect in some patients in reducing migraine days, to others who reported treatment eliminated–or nearly eliminated–migraine headaches,” the researchers wrote. “The early adverse event data showed that erenumab-aooe also had adverse effects, some apparently underestimated in its clinical studies.”

On the benefits side of things, the ISMP report notes that even the clinical trials showed a substantial placebo effect, meaning patients who received a fake pill reported fewer migraines, even though they were not actually given any medications.

However, adverse event reports included constipation, sometimes up to the point of hospitalization, as well as hair loss, injection site reactions and rare cases of anaphylactic shock.

“The most striking feature of the (Aimovig) adverse event data was the sheer number of case reports in our totals for the 12 months ending with 2019 Q1. We identified 10,508 case reports, including 1,458 with a serious outcome,” the report warns. The drug ranked first in number of reports for 33 new drugs approved in 2018 and accounted for more than twice as many cases as the other 32 new drugs combined.”

    My dr insisted I try this shot. Since then, I’ve had severe joint pain all over, total exhaustion and low depressed mood. I will never take another one and pray to God Almighty that this doesn’t cause long term effects, as I already suffer from health problems. If there’s a lawsuit, I’ll sure think of joining in as this is debilitating.

They came back with a vengeance in the fourth. The second shot I did at home. Within a day or so, I began a headache that started, bit seemed, in my upper neck, spread up the back of my head, and then turned into a full-blown migraine. This was accompanied by muscle and joint pain, SEVERE tinnitus (ongoing) and the worst fatigue I've ever felt. I became bedridden for EIGHT and a half MONTHS. CONSTANT headache... Different than migraine, but still so painful I prayed to just die. I lost my sense of smell and taste, as well as the ability to feel when I needed to urinate until it was urgent. My heart felt like it was pounding out of my chest at times. My brain feels like it has SHRUNK, as when I move too quickly, I can FEEL it bounce from one side of my skull to another. Not to mention COGNITIVE issues. Searching for words, losing thoughts completely in the middle of conversation, loss of short-term memory, and sudden and vivid remembrance of memories from decades ago. I am exhausted ALL the time. I now require at least a three or four hour nap just to get thru the evening until 6:30-7:00 p.m., when I'm so exhausted I have no choice and must go to bed. My life was utterly RUINED by Emgality. My doctor told me there were no side effects. He believed the FDA, I guess. I told him all my symptoms, but as far as I know, he only reported joint pain to the gov agency that collects info. (vaars?) After I began to slowly recover (one puff of indica helps tremendously, believe it or not, as well as sumatriptan - of which I'm only allowed 7 a month, idk why) I began to research. On the site drugs dot com, there are SO MANY ppl who have reported horrible side effects like mine and the folks here! These drugs need to be removed IMMEDIATELY from the market! WE ARE NOT YOUR GUINEA PIGS!! The company or companies who make and sell them need to be held ACCOUNTABLE!

    Ofcourse migraine medication effectiveness will be highly variable. All migraine treatments have variable efficacy, because there are different types and underlying neurological causes. Thats not an argument, it just demonstrates that it was written by a lawyer, not a medical professional.

I have been on it for about 2 years and about a year into it, the stomach pains started. The first time it happened shortly after injecting so I put the two together. The other times have been at the end of my month before the next injection. It has now progressed to me passing out and loosing consciousness after vomiting. I also experienced heart palpitations for 2-3 months but those seemed to have passed. I'm done with this medication!

  • BillJanuary 5, 2021 at 3:18 pm

    Emgality changed my life for the good. I went from 17 migraines a month to about 5 a month. The only possible side effect I’ve seen that started at around the same time is a benign lump in my breast.

    I took several doses of Aimovig and had many of the noted side effects. One not noted until AFTER I had a retinal stroke due to a sudden onset of high blood pressure attack. Finding out after the fact that Aimovig now can cause that doesn't help my damaged vision!

    I took Aimovig for 7 months, that was the only new medicine that I had been on, I woke one morning and couldn’t move my left leg, has the day went on I still couldn’t, long story short, I was almost five months before the doctors find out what had happened to my leg, I had infection in my hip which caused me to have two hip replacements, I also suffer from ringing in my ears!!

    Aimovig has done horrible things to my body. Sharp zapping, burning pain on scalp with severe hair loss. GI issues, extremely tired to the point where I had a sleep study conducted. I took only a couple of doses, last one being in Jan, when I googled Aimovig and hair loss. If anyone is building a case I'd like to participate. Please contact me.

    I took Aimovig for 5 months - got every bad side effect I later learned was listed at bottom of 200 pages in trials, including UTI, high blood pressure, multiple infections, worse headaches/fatigue, confusion, anger; dermatitis, hair loss, compromised immune system: landed in ICU 5 weeks, almost died. Worst medical experience of my life.

    I took one dose of Aimovig in late November of 2018. The worst thing I ever did. I have had severe constipation, pain, stomach bloat and now full on IBS. I never had any GI problems in my life. I wish I could go back in time and stop myself from taking this.

Then in January of 2020 she felt a lump on her breast and had it biopsied, it was found as cancerous and she's stage 2 breast cancer, now undergoing treatment after surgery, radiation then soon Chemotherapy is necessary. We researched a trial of Aimovig after discovering the breast cancer and found 2% of women in a study developed some form of cancer but it was dismissed as not enough to determine a causal relationship. Aimovig prescription info states it has not been analyzed as a carcinogenic in the small print of the drug info. My wife was genetically tested and found to not be predisposed to cancer nor does it run in her family. Aimovig was the only drug she was taking that was new to her system over the fourteen months she was injecting, and obviously we now learned had molecular implications that it seems have resulted in her ongoing battle with skin and now Breast Cancer. Just sharing to make everyone aware that all things have not been disclosed about this drug and it may have life threatening implications.
