|
MG-ADL Total Score Change From Baseline
Time Frame: Up to 29 days in part A
|
The Myasthenia Gravis Activities of Daily Living (MG-ADL) scale is an 8-item instrument used to assess MG symptoms and their effects on daily activities.
The total score ranges from 0 (no symptoms) to 24 (most severe symptoms).
|
Up to 29 days in part A

Measure Description |
Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
|
QMG Total Score Change From Baseline
Time Frame: Up to 29 days in part A
|
The Quantitative Myasthenia Gravis (QMG) score includes 13 items that measure endurance or fatigability and accounts for fluctuations in disease state.
The total score ranges from 0 (no symptoms) to 39 (highest disease severity).
|
Up to 29 days in part A
|
|
Proportion of Participants Who Are Both MG-ADL and QMG Responders in Part A
Time Frame: Up to 8 weeks (part A)
|
A participant was an MG-ADL responder if there was a ≥2-point reduction in the MG-ADL total score compared with baseline that was maintained for at least 4 consecutive weeks (ie, at least 5 consecutive visits total), with the first reduction occurring no later than 1 week after the last administration of IMP in part A. A participant was a QMG responder if there was a ≥3-point reduction in the QMG total score compared with baseline that was maintained for at least 4 consecutive weeks (ie, at least 5 consecutive visits total), with the first reduction occurring no later than 1 week after the last administration of IMP in part A.
|
Up to 8 weeks (part A)
|
|
Proportion of Participants With MSE
Time Frame: Up to 8 weeks (part A) + 3 years (part B)
|
Minimal symptom expression (MSE) is defined as an MG-ADL total score of 0 or 1
|
Up to 8 weeks (part A) + 3 years (part B)
|
|
Proportion of Participants Who Are MG-ADL Responders in Part A
Time Frame: Up to 8 weeks (part A)

MG-ADL Total Score Change From Baseline Over Time in Part A and Part A+B
Time Frame: Up to 8 weeks (part A) + 3 years (part B)
|
The Myasthenia Gravis Activities of Daily Living (MG- ADL) scale is an 8-item instrument used to assess MG symptoms and their effects on daily activities.

MG-QoL15r Change From Baseline Over Time in Part A and Part A+B
Time Frame: Up to 8 weeks (part A) + 3 years (part B)
|
The Myasthenia Gravis Quality of Life-15 revised (MG-QoL15r) is a patient-reported instrument that measures the impact of MG symptoms on quality of life.
The total scores range from 0 (best outcome) to 30 (worst outcome).
|
Up to 8 weeks (part A) + 3 years (part B)
|
|
EQ-5D-5L VAS Change From Baseline Over Time in Part A and Part A+B
Time Frame: Up to 8 weeks (part A) + 3 years (part B)
|
The EQ-5D-5L is a participant-reported measure of health status developed by the EuroQol Group.
The questionnaire comprises 5 dimensions: mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression.
Current health status is rated on vertical visual analog score (VAS) from 0 to 100, with a score of 0 corresponding to "the worst health you can imagine" and 100 corresponding to "the best health you can imagine."
|
Up to 8 weeks (part A) + 3 years (part B)
