ADAPT Forward - Master Protocol of a Platform Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of Multiple Regimens in Participants With Myasthenia Gravis

June 11, 2026 updated by: argenx

A Master Protocol for an Exploratory, Phase 2a, Proof-of-Concept Platform Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, and Efficacy of Multiple Regimens in Participants With Myasthenia Gravis

ADAPT Forward is a platform study with the aim to look at how safe different drugs are and how well they work for people with myasthenia gravis. The goal is to find the best therapeutic approach to reduce patients' side effects and improve their quality of life.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

This is a platform study and is governed by a single master protocol that enables multiple regimens to be evaluated in separate intervention-specific appendixes (ISAs).

The key design structure of the platform study comprises: common master protocol screening period, ISA-specific screening period, ISA treatment period of variable duration and design and ISA safety follow-up/follow-up period of variable duration.

Details on each study period will be specified in the ISAs. Following ISAs are included in this platform study:

  • NCT07284420 - ADAPT Forward 1 - a study to evaluate empasiprubart IV as add-on therapy to efgartigimod IV in participants with AChR-Ab seropositive generalized myasthenia gravis with a partial clinical response to efgartigimod (https://www.clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT07284420)

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

  • Adult
  • Older Adult

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

Participants With AChR-Ab Seropositive Generalized Myasthenia Gravis With a Partial Clinical Response to Efgartigimod

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Is at least 18 years of age and the local legal age of consent for clinical studies
  • Has been diagnosed with MG with consistent clinical features per the investigator's clinical judgment
  • If receiving MG therapy, including nonsteroidal immunosuppressive drugs (NSIDs), corticosteroids, or acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitors either in combination or alone, the participant should receive a stable dosage before master protocol screening

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Known autoimmune disease or any medical condition other than the indication under study that would interfere with an accurate assessment of clinical symptoms of MG or puts the participant at undue risk
  • Is MGFA (Myasthenia Gravis Foundation of America) Class V

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Time Frame
To determine the safety and tolerability of multiple regimens (monotherapy or add-on therapy to backbone therapy) in MG subtypes
Time Frame: Up to approximately 7 years (the duration of each ISA will vary and be specified on the ISA records)
Up to approximately 7 years (the duration of each ISA will vary and be specified on the ISA records)

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
To evaluate the efficacy of multiple regimens (monotherapy or add-on therapy to backbone therapy) in MG subtypes
Time Frame: Up to approximately 7 years (the duration of each ISA will vary and be specified on the ISA records)
Each ISA record will specify the correct scale and time point
Up to approximately 7 years (the duration of each ISA will vary and be specified on the ISA records)

Study Major Dates

Study Start (Actual)

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.
December 19, 2025

Primary Completion (Estimated)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.

Study Completion (Estimated)

Study Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention/treatment to collect final data for the primary outcome measures, secondary outcome measures, and adverse events (that is, the last participant's last visit). The "anticipated" study completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the study completion date.
