Filter by:The purpose of this clinical study is to determine the efficacy and safety of a new oral cladribine formulation in participants with Generalized Myasthenia Gravis (gMG) in comparison to placebo. It will also investigate the sustained efficacy, the need for retreatment, and the long-term safety of oral cladribine in gMG. An additional component is included to characterize the Pharmacokinetics (PK) of the new cladribine formulation in gMG participants. This study is divided into 3 periods: the double-blind placebo control (DBPC) pivotal period, and 2 extensions, the blinded extension (BE) and the retreatment (RT) period.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of telitacicept in the treatment of generalized myasthenia gravis.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of B007 in subjects with generalized myasthenia gravis.
The purpose of this study was to demonstrate in patients with myasthenia gravis (MG) undergoing thoracoscopic thymectomy faster recovery from a moderate neuromuscular block induced by rocuronium after reversal at reappearance of T2 by 2.0 mg/kg sugammadex compared to 50 ug/kg neostigmine. Methods: A total of 64 patients with MG undergoing thoracoscopic thymectomy will be randomly divided into two groups: Sugammadex group (S group) and Neostigmine group (N group). The same anesthesia methods will be applied in both groups. Patients of S group will receive a dose of 2.0 mg/kg sugammadex after the last dose of rocuronium, at reappearance of T2. Patients of N group will receive a dose of 50 ug/kg neostigmine after the last dose of rocuronium, at reappearance of T2. The primary endpoint is time from start of administration of sugammadex or neostigmine to recovery of train-of-four stimulation ratio (TOFr) to 0.9. Secondary end points include time from start of administration of sugammadex or neostigmine to recovery of TOFr to 0.8 and 0.7, time to extubation, clinical signs of neuromuscular recovery, hemodynamic changes after muscle relaxation antagonism, adverse effects, time to operating room (OR) discharge, time to post-anesthesia care unit (PACU) discharge, and pulmonary complications within 7 days after the operation.
The purpose of this study is to assess the long-term safety and tolerability of an additional 52 weeks of Zilucoplan treatment administered by subcutaneous injection once daily in pediatric study participants
This Phase 2 proof-of-concept, dose range finding study aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of 3 dose levels of NMD670 vs placebo in adult patients with MG with antibodies against AChR or MuSK, administered twice a day (BID) for 21 days.
The purpose of this study is to measure the pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of efgartigimod PH20 SC in pediatric participants with gMG aged 2 to <18 years. The primary goal is to confirm an appropriate dose of efgartigimod PH20 SC for pediatric patients using PK and PD results from this study. Participants will receive injections of efgartigimod PH20 SC and will be monitored for safety until the end of the study. At the end of the follow-up period, eligible participants may roll over to an open-label extension (OLE) study.
This study is a single-center, open-label, single-arm, dose-exploration study to evaluate the safety and preliminary effectiveness of CD19-BCMA CAR-T in the treatment of refractory, generalized myasthenia gravis. The study is a dose escalation trial in adult, refractory, systemic MG patients. The Keyboard method will be used to perform dose escalation to explore the maximum tolerated dose (MTD). A total of 12 MG patients who meet the inclusion criteria are expected to be recruited.
Myasthenia is an autoimmune disease causing dysfunction of the neuromuscular junction, resulting in fluctuating and variable muscle weakness. In the initial phase of the disease, 70% of patients present with ocular onset myasthenia (OMG), i.e. weakness limited to the oculomotor muscles. Generalization to skeletal, bulbar and axial muscles occurs in 20-40% of cases, with a higher frequency in the first and second years, respectively 46% and 60% of generalizations. This reflects the maturation of the autoimmune response in the early years of the disease, and represents a therapeutic window of opportunity to modify the course of the disease. Generalization is a critical event, putting the patient at risk of admission to an intensive care unit and necessitating the use of long-term immunosuppressants. There is currently no validated strategy for preventing generalization. On the one hand, a preventive role for corticosteroid therapy in ocular-onset myasthenia has been observed in some studies, but not confirmed by others. These contradictory results may be explained by the bias of retrospective observational studies and the use of different corticosteroid administration regimens. On the other hand, recent data on the use of low-dose Rituximab in the early phase of the disease shows greater efficacy than later use, enabling prolonged remission of the disease with a very good tolerability profile. We propose to compare in a randomized controlled trial the usual practice with a proactive strategy with a standardized corticosteroid regimen immediate at diagnosis. Patients with ocular myasthenia are usually treated symptomatically with acetylcholinesterase inhibitors. The introduction of corticosteroids is delayed and limited to patients with persistent disabling diplopia or ptosis with occlusion. When corticosteroids are tapered off, ocular symptoms may recur. This level of corticosteroid dependence observed in patients treated for ocular myasthenia has not been specifically studied. In order to reduce the levels of corticosteroids administered and avoid recurrence of ocular symptoms and their delayed generalization, it is usually proposed to introduce another immunosuppressant. The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of a standardized proactive prevention strategy on the generalization of ocular onset myasthenias during the first 2 years. It will combine immediate treatment with corticosteroids at the time of diagnosis, with the addition of rituximab in the event of recurrence of ocular symptoms as corticosteroids are tapered off.
The primary objective of this study is to describe the frequency and characteristics of pregnancy outcomes and maternal complications among participants exposed to Ultomiris and to describe the frequency and characteristics of selected fetal/neonatal/infant outcomes in utero, at birth, and through 1 year of age after exposure in utero or via breastmilk.
