A Study to Assess the Long-term Safety and Efficacy of a Subcutaneous Formulation of Efgartigimod in Adults With Active Idiopathic Inflammatory Myopathy (ALKIVIA+)

April 5, 2024 updated by: argenx

A Phase 3, Single-Arm, Multicenter, Open-label Extension of Study ARGX-113-2007 to Investigate the Long-term Safety, Tolerability, and Efficacy of Efgartigimod PH20 SC in Participants Aged 18 Years and Older With Active Idiopathic Inflammatory Myopathy

The purpose of this study is to measure the long-term safety and tolerability of efgartigimod PH20 SC in adult participants with IIM who previously participated in ARGX-113-2007. Secondary objectives include efficacy measures of efgartigimod PH20 SC in participants with IIM.
