Filter by: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.
RESET-MG: A Phase 1/2 Open-Label Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of CABA-201 in Participants with Generalized Myasthenia Gravis
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.
This is a multi-country, prospective safety study of pregnant women exposed to efgartigimod any time within 25 days prior to conception or any time during pregnancy. Women exposed to efgartigimod only during breastfeeding will also be eligible to enroll. Background rates of major congenital malformations (MCMs) will be obtained from populations within the same countries/regions as the countries/regions in which the VYVGART IV or SC-exposed pregnancies were reported.
This is a non-interventional, prospective, post authorization safety study. Patients with gMG who are expected to start treatment with efgartigimod at enrolment or are within their first cycle of efgartigimod at enrolment will be eligible to enroll into the efgartigimod cohort. Patients with gMG who have not been exposed to efgartigimod and for whom it is not planned to start treatment with efgartigimod at enrolment will be eligible to enroll into the non-efgartigimod cohort.
It is evidenced that efgartigimod can rapidly and significantly improve the symptoms of myasthenia gravis. The global multicenter clinical trials hace confirmed that efgartigimod is safe and well tolerated. Few case reports showed that perioperative efgartigimod combined with thymectomy was safe and feasible. However, there was no sufficient data on safety and efficacy of this regimen in the treatment for patients with myasthenia gravis and thymomas. Therefore, this trial aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of perioperative efgartigimod and thymectomy for patients with myasthenia gravis and thymomas.
A Study of the Anti-CD 19 Chimeric Antigen Receptor T Cell Therapy for Subjects with Myasthenia Gravis
The purpose of the study is to assess the safety and tolerability of subcutaneous (sc) administration of rozanolixizumab in pediatric participants aged ≥2 to <18 years with generalized Myasthenia Gravis (gMG).
