CGRP target migraine drug Emgality is in the final stage for insurance benefit registration.

According to related industries, Emgality, a target migraine treatment for CGRP (Calcitoninogen-related peptide) by Lilly Korea, recently began negotiations with the NHIS on drug prices. Considering the deadline for negotiations, a conclusion is expected within next month. If Emgality is reimbursed, it will be the first new drug in the system.

Emgality passed the Drug Reimbursment Evaluation Committee on the 12th of last month after submitting a benefit application in March 2021. Handok Teva's Ajovy, which is currently a competitive drug, is also in the process of registration.
