Study Summary

The study is being done with patients with Myasthenia Gravis (MG), age 18-80 years, positive acetylcholine receptor antibody, receiving greater than 30mg of prednisone daily. Patients may or may not be receiving anticholinesterase agents. A common treatment for patients with this disease includes the administration of intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG), which is a plasma protein that is given to help maintain adequate antibody levels to prevent infections and decrease the symptoms of the disease of Myasthenia Gravis. This study is being done to test if giving this medication in a subcutaneous form (into the fat of the abdomen, legs and thighs) will be better tolerated for patients with Myasthenia Gravis.

Primary Outcome

To evaluate feasibility and tolerability of IGSC as a maintenance treatment of generalized MG as measured by treatment adherence and adverse events experienced by the patient. Patients will be asked if they have experienced any of the most commonly known side effects of Hizentra. A case report form detailing any adverse events will be included with every study visit and reviewed with the patient at each visit.
