• AJOVY demonstrated efficacy and a consistent safety profile in the SPACE trial, making it the first and only calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) antagonist treatment option for both pediatric and adult patients.^1,2
• Results from the SPACE trial found AJOVY significantly reduced monthly migraine days and monthly headache days versus placebo over a 12-week period in pediatric patients with episodic migraine.¹
• The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved AJOVY in August 2025 for the preventive treatment of episodic migraine in children and adolescents aged 6-17 years who weigh 45 kilograms (99 pounds) or more, building on its initial approval for the preventive treatment of migraine in adults.²
  
  

PARSIPPANY, N.J. and TEL AVIV, Israel, Jan. 14, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Teva Pharmaceuticals, a U.S. affiliate of Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd. (NYSE and TASE: TEVA), today announced that the New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM) has published pivotal Phase 3 data on AJOVY, highlighting its efficacy and safety in children and adolescents with episodic migraine. The data from the SPACE study supported the FDA approval of AJOVY for the preventive treatment of episodic migraine in pediatric patients aged 6-17 years weighing 45 kilograms (99 pounds) or more, making it the first and only calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) antagonist indicated for preventive treatment of episodic migraine in pediatric patients and migraine in adults.^1,2

'With an estimated 1 in 10 children and adolescents in the U.S. living with migraine, the need for effective preventive options is critical as this condition can disrupt daily life for patients and families,' said Eric Hughes, M.D., Ph.D., Executive Vice President, Global R&D and Chief Medical Officer at Teva.³ 'The SPACE trial results published in the New England Journal of Medicine add to the growing body of evidence supporting AJOVY and build on its established use in adults. Teva is proud to be leading the charge and continuing to innovate for the migraine community.'

In the SPACE trial, AJOVY reduced monthly migraine days (MMD) by 2.5 days compared to 1.4 days with placebo (difference: 1.1 days; P = 0.02) and reduced monthly headache days (MHD) of at least moderate severity by 2.6 days versus 1.5 days (difference: 1.1 days; P = 0.02). A significantly higher proportion of participants achieved a ≥ 50% reduction in MMD (47.2%) with AJOVY compared to placebo (27.0%) (P = 0.002). No new safety signals were identified, and the safety profile remained consistent with that observed in adult studies.¹

The 3-month, randomized, placebo-controlled SPACE study enrolled 237 children and adolescents aged 6-17 years with episodic migraine. Participants were randomized to receive monthly subcutaneous injections of fremanezumab (120 mg for those weighing < 45 kg; 225 mg for those weighing ≥ 45 kg) or matched placebo.¹

'Helping to prevent migraine attacks in children and adolescents is critical to supporting their healthy development and education, including missed school days, disability and overall social well-being,' said the study’s lead author, Andrew D. Hershey, M.D., Ph.D., and Endowed Chair and Director of Neurology at Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center. 'The SPACE trial demonstrates that a CGRP-targeted preventive therapy like fremanezumab-vfrm (AJOVY) can significantly reduce the frequency of attacks of migraine in youth, giving physicians critical evidence to guide care for this underserved population.'

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

Contraindications: AJOVY is contraindicated in patients with serious hypersensitivity to fremanezumab-vfrm or to any of the excipients. Reactions have included anaphylaxis and angioedema.

Hypersensitivity Reactions: Hypersensitivity reactions, including rash, pruritus, drug hypersensitivity, and urticaria were reported with AJOVY in clinical trials. Most reactions were mild to moderate, but some led to discontinuation or required corticosteroid treatment. Most reactions were reported from within hours to one month after administration. Cases of anaphylaxis and angioedema have been reported in the postmarketing setting. If a hypersensitivity reaction occurs, consider discontinuing AJOVY and institute appropriate therapy.

Hypertension: Development of hypertension and worsening of pre-existing hypertension have been reported following the use of CGRP antagonists, including AJOVY, in the postmarketing setting.

Monitor patients treated with AJOVY for new-onset hypertension or worsening of pre-existing hypertension, and consider whether discontinuation of AJOVY is warranted.

Raynaud’s Phenomenon: Development of Raynaud’s phenomenon and recurrence or worsening of pre-existing Raynaud’s phenomenon have been reported in the postmarketing setting following the use of CGRP antagonists, including AJOVY. Many of the cases reported serious outcomes, including hospitalizations and disability, generally related to debilitating pain.

AJOVY should be discontinued if signs or symptoms of Raynaud’s phenomenon develop. Patients with a history of Raynaud’s phenomenon should be monitored for, and informed about the possibility of, worsening or recurrence of signs and symptoms.

Adverse Reactions: The most common adverse reactions in clinical trials (≥5% and greater than placebo) were injection site reactions.
