Study Summary

The purpose of this open-label study is to investigate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of a continuous regimen of efgartigimod compared with a cyclic regimen in participants with Generalized Myasthenia Gravis (gMG). Participants will receive efgartigimod throughout the study. The participants will be randomized to the continuous regimen arm or to the cyclic regimen arm. The study consists of a part A (regimen comparison period) where participants will continue the treatment based on the treatment regimen arm they were assigned at randomization. Following part A, participants will enter part B (extension period) where all participants will receive efgartigimod in the continuous regimen. The study duration for participants is up to 138 weeks.

Primary Outcome

The MG-ADL (Myasthenia Gravis Activities of Daily Living) scale assesses MG symptoms and their effects on daily activities. The total score varies between 0 and 24, with higher total scores indicating more impairment.
