This trial is testing a medication called efgartigimod to help people with Generalized Myasthenia Gravis, a condition that causes muscle weakness. The medication works by lowering harmful proteins in the blood that attack muscles. The study will compare different usage patterns of the medication over a period of several months. Efgartigimod was well tolerated and effective in patients with generalized myasthenia gravis.

The main purpose of the proposed study is to evaluate the efficacy of efgartigimod PH20 SC in patients with moderate-to-severe Primary Sjögren's Disease (pSjD). The study consists of a double-blinded placebo-controlled treatment period and an open-label treatment period. The maximum study duration for participants in both study parts is approximately 105 weeks.

The main purpose of this study is to look at the effect (efficacy) and safety of efgartigimod IV in participants with primary immune thrombocytopenia (ITP). After an up to 2 weeks screening period, eligible participants will be randomized in a 2:1 ratio to receive either efgartigimod IV or placebo IV, respectively during the double-blinded treatment period (DBTP). At the end of the treatment period (up to 24 weeks), all participants will receive efgartigimod IV during the first 52-week open-label treatment period (OLTP1). At the end of the first OLTP1, participants may begin a second 52-week OLTP2. After the OLTP2, the participants will enter a follow-up period (approximately 8 weeks) while off study drug. The participants will be in the study for up to 138 weeks.

30 Participants Needed

The goal of this clinical trial is to examine the proportion of patients with stiff person syndrome with no worsening in stiffness and/or spasms while on efgartigimod-hyaluronidase (EFD) when compared to their current treatment. The main questions it aims to answer are: * proportion of patients with stiff person syndrome with no worsening in DSI and HSS scores * whether there are changes in laboratory values, vital signs, electrocardiogram, or depression, and suicide risk during the trial, as well as the incidence of any adverse events. Participants will come to the clinic up to 18 times and have up to 5 phone call visits during the course of the trial. During these visits a variety of measures will be collected, including blood samples, neurological and physical exams, patient reported outcomes on stiffness, spasms, depression, and suicide risk.

This study plans to learn more about if the drug efgartigimod can be used in the hospital to treat exacerbations in participants with myasthenia gravis (MG). Efgartigimod has been approved by the FDA for ongoing (chronic) treatment of generalized MG in adult patients who are anti-acetylcholine receptor (AChR) antibody positive but has not been studied in the treatment of worsening weakness requiring hospital admission (known as "exacerbation"). This investigation aims to see if using efgartigimod in this way improves symptoms and recovery from exacerbation, and how it affects certain MG markers in the blood. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Is efgartigimod effective as a hospital-administered acute therapy for participants with worsening MG (MG exacerbation) who require hospitalization? * Will efgartigimod lead to clinical improvement with a similar reduction in validated research scales, such as the Quantitative MG (QMG) scale, as standard of care therapies? Participants will receive 4 doses of efgartigimod over the course of 4 weeks with an additional follow-up visit at the clinic.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do clinical trials pay?
Each trial will compensate patients a different amount, but $50-100 for each visit is a fairly common range for Phase 2–4 trials (Phase 1 trials often pay substantially more). Further, most trials will cover the costs of a travel to-and-from the clinic.
How do clinical trials work?
After a researcher reviews your profile, they may choose to invite you in to a screening appointment, where they'll determine if you meet 100% of the eligibility requirements. If you do, you'll be sorted into one of the treatment groups, and receive your study drug. For some trials, there is a chance you'll receive a placebo. Across trials 30% of clinical trials have a placebo. Typically, you'll be required to check-in with the clinic every month or so. The average trial length is 12 months.
How do I participate in a study as a "healthy volunteer"?
Not all studies recruit healthy volunteers: usually, Phase 1 studies do. Participating as a healthy volunteer means you will go to a research facility several times over a few days or weeks to receive a dose of either the test treatment or a "placebo," which is a harmless substance that helps researchers compare results. You will have routine tests during these visits, and you'll be compensated for your time and travel, with the number of appointments and details varying by study.
What does the "phase" of a clinical trial mean?
The phase of a trial reveals what stage the drug is in to get approval for a specific condition. Phase 1 trials are the trials to collect safety data in humans. Phase 2 trials are those where the drug has some data showing safety in humans, but where further human data is needed on drug effectiveness. Phase 3 trials are in the final step before approval. The drug already has data showing both safety and effectiveness. As a general rule, Phase 3 trials are more promising than Phase 2, and Phase 2 trials are more promising than phase 1.
Do I need to be insured to participate in a medical study ?
Clinical trials are almost always free to participants, and so do not require insurance. The only exception here are trials focused on cancer, because only a small part of the typical treatment plan is actually experimental. For these cancer trials, participants typically need insurance to cover all the non-experimental components.
What are the newest clinical trials ?
Most recently, we added Efgartigimod for Stiff Person Syndrome, Efgartigimod for Myasthenia Gravis and Efgartigimod for Myasthenia Gravis to the Power online platform.
