Filter by:The purpose of the current study is to assess safety/tolerability and key pharmacodynamic (PD) effects that are considered to be associated with clinical benefit (reduction of total IgG and anti-AChR-IgG) in Myasthenia Gravis patients following treatment with RVT-1401 (also known as IMVT-1401) compared to placebo.
The objective of this study is to compare the effectiveness of a personalized patient education program to the current hospital education and evaluate its impact using patient satisfaction scores. The investigators hypothesize that a personalized patient education intervention will increase patient's understanding of their diagnosis and satisfaction with the care as reflected in the survey results.
Objective: To comparatively analyze long-term results and complications of transcervical (TCT) and transsternal thymectomy (TST) in a randomized controlled trial with a mean follow-up of ten years. Results: Outcomes 10 years after surgery by MGFA post-intervention status showed that complete stable remission was achieved in 8 (21.6%) patients of the TCT group, and in 20 patients (55.5%) of the TST group. Conclusions: Transcervical and transsternal thymectomy are safe and result in significant improvement of patients with Myasthenia Gravis. TST has superior results in terms of complete stable remission at 10 years.
Blepharoptosis (incomplete opening of the eyelids) occurs because of a disruption in the normal agonist-antagonist neuro-muscular complex balance. An external device could restore eyelid movement. A newer class of permanent magnets made of alloys of neodymium (Nd), iron (Fe) and boron (B) might provide the technology needed to develop a feasible external magnetic device that could restore eyelid movement.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of M281 administered to participants with generalized myasthenia gravis (gMG) who have an insufficient clinical response to ongoing standard of care therapy.
This is a Long-Term, Single-Arm, Open-Label, Multicenter Phase 3 follow-on trial of the ARGX-113-1704 study to evaluate the safety and tolerability of ARGX-113 in patients with gMG. Patients who have completed at least 1 cycle of treatment and at least 1 year of trial ARGX-113-1705 and have started Part B are eligible to enroll in the open-label trial ARGX-113-2002 to receive efgartigimod by SC administration.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of eculizumab in the treatment of pediatric refractory gMG based on change from Baseline in the Quantitative Myasthenia Gravis (QMG) score for disease severity.
Myasthenia Gravis (MG) is an autoimmune disease characterized by increased exercise-induced fatigue and muscle weakness. MG is a disease caused by impaired receptor function due to antibodies to nicotinic acetylcholine receptors in postsynaptic region in voluntary skeletal muscles.Spinal stabilization exercises, which use the basic principles of motor learning, aiming to improve the coordination, contraction rate and endurance of the body muscles by increasing kinesthetic awareness, can be used to strengthen body stability. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of spinal stabilization exercises on fatigue, muscle strength, pulmonary functions and functional capacity in patients with MG.
A randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled, multicenter Phase 3 trial to evaluate the efficacy, safety, tolerability, quality of life and impact on normal daily activities of ARGX-113 in patients with gMG.
This study is designed to address the evidence gaps in a real-world setting and help patients with MG choose treatments that are best suited to them. It is a prospective, multicenter observational cohort study of comparative effectiveness of MG treatments, with a patient-centered primary outcome measure, to guide clinicians, patients and payers regarding the choice of treatment options for this chronic and serious disease. Primary: To compare the effectiveness of azathioprine (AZT) and mycophenolate mofetil (MMF). Secondary: To compare the outcomes in patients receiving an adequate dose and duration of AZT or MMF over the 2-3 year study period, vs. patients not receiving adequate doses and duration of these agents
