Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change from Baseline to Day 43 in Myasthenia Gravis-Activities of Daily Living (MG-ADL) score in the first Treatment Cycle
Time Frame: Baseline to Day 43 (in first treatment cycle)

The total MG-ADL score is obtained by summing the responses to each individual item (8 items; Grades: 0, 1, 2, 3). The score ranges from 0 to 24, with a higher score indicating more disability.

A positive change indicates worsening and a negative change indicates improvement.

Baseline to Day 43 (in first treatment cycle)

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
MG-ADL responder (≥2.0-point improvement from Baseline) at Day 43 in the first Treatment Cycle
Time Frame: Baseline to Day 43 (in first treatment cycle)
A MG-ADL responder is defined as achieving at least 2.0-point improvement in the MG-ADL total score from Baseline.
Baseline to Day 43 (in first treatment cycle)
Change from Baseline to Day 43 in Myasthenia Gravis-Composite (MG-C) score within first 6 week treatment cycle
Time Frame: Baseline to Day 43 (in first treatment cycle)

The MG-C scale is a validated assessment, with a higher score indicating more severe disease and a 3-point change being of clinical relevance. The scale tests 10 items, with individual items being weighted differently. The overall score ranges from 0 to 50 (more severe disease).

The items included ptosis/upward gaze (range: 0 [>45 second] - 3 [Immediate]), double vision on lateral gaze (range: 0 [>45 second] - 4 [Immediate]), eye closure (range: 0 [Normal] - 2 [severe weakness]), talking (range: 0 [Normal] - 6 [difficult to understand speech]), chewing (range: 0 [Normal] - 6 [gastric tube]), swallowing (range: 0 [Normal] - 6 [gastric tube]), breathing (range: 0 [Normal] - 9 [ventilator dependence]), neck flexion (range: 0 [Normal] - 4 [severe weakness]), shoulder abduction (range: 0 [Normal] - 5 [severe weakness]) and hip flexion (range: 0 [Normal] - 5 [severe weakness]), lower scores= lower disease activity.

Baseline to Day 43 (in first treatment cycle)
Change from Baseline to Day 43 in Quantitative Myasthenia Gravis (QMG) score within first 6-week treatment cycle
Time Frame: Baseline to Day 43 (in first treatment cycle)
The total QMG score is obtained by summing the responses to each individual item (13 items [ocular and facial involvement, swallowing, speech, limb strength, and forced vital capacity]; Responses: None=0, Mild=1, Moderate=2, Severe=3). The QMG is a validated assessment, with a higher score indicating more severe disease. Scoring for each item ranges from no weakness (0) to severe weakness (3), with an overall score range from 0 to 39. A 3-point change in the total score is considered clinically relevant.
Baseline to Day 43 (in first treatment cycle)
Change from Baseline to Day 43 in Myasthenia Gravis (MG) Symptoms Patient Reported Outcome (PRO) 'Muscle Weakness Fatigability' score within first 6-week treatment cycle
Time Frame: Baseline to Day 43 (in first treatment cycle)
The MG symptoms PRO instrument consisted of 42 items across 5 scales: ocular muscle weakness (items 1-5); bulbar muscle weakness (items 6-15); respiratory muscle weakness (items 16-18); physical fatigue (items 19-33) and muscle weakness fatigability (items 34-42). Study participants will be asked to choose response option that best describes how frequently they experienced muscle weakness fatigability (items 34-42) over the past 7 days using a 5-point Likert scale (1="none of the time" to 5="all of the time") for each item.
Baseline to Day 43 (in first treatment cycle)
Change from Baseline to Day 43 in MG Symptoms PRO 'Physical Fatigue' score within first 6-week treatment cycle
Time Frame: Baseline to Day 43 (in first treatment cycle)
The MG symptoms PRO instrument consisted of 42 items across 5 scales: ocular muscle weakness (items 1-5); bulbar muscle weakness (items 6-15); respiratory muscle weakness (items 16-18); physical fatigue (items 19-33) and muscle weakness fatigability (items 34-42). Study participants will be asked to choose the response option that best describes how frequently they experienced physical fatigue (items 19-33) over the past 7 days using a 5-point Likert scale (1="none of the time" to 5="all of the time") for each item.
Baseline to Day 43 (in first treatment cycle)
Percentage of participants with treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs)
Time Frame: Up to End of study (40 weeks)
Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) are any untoward medical incidence in a participant after the administration of study treatment, whether or not these events are related to study treatment.
Up to End of study (40 weeks)
Percentage of participants with TEAEs leading to withdrawal of investigational medicinal product (IMP)
Time Frame: Up to End of study (40 weeks)
Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) are any untoward medical incidence in a participant after the administration of study treatment, whether or not these events are related to study treatment.
Up to End of study (40 weeks)

Plan for Individual participant data (IPD)

Plan to Share Individual Participant Data (IPD)?

YES

IPD Plan Description

Data from this trial may be requested by qualified researchers six months after product approval in the US and/or Europe, or global development is discontinued, and 18 months after trial completion. Investigators may request access to anonymized individual patient-level data and redacted trial documents which may include: analysis-ready datasets, study protocol, annotated case report form, statistical analysis plan, dataset specifications, and clinical study report. Prior to use of the data, proposals need to be approved by an independent review panel at www.Vivli.org and a signed data sharing agreement will need to be executed. All documents are available in English only, for a pre-specified time, typically 12 months, on a password protected portal. This plan may change if the risk of re-identifying trial participants is determined to be too high after the trial is completed; in this case and to protect participants, individual patient-level data would not be made available.
