Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Percentage of participants with treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) [ Time Frame: From Baseline (Day 1) to End of Study (average of 20 months) ]
    An adverse event (AE) is any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical investigation subject administered a pharmaceutical product, which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. An AE could therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign, symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal (investigational) product, whether or not related to the medicinal (investigational) product.

  2. Percentage of participants with TEAEs leading to withdrawal of investigational medicinal product (IMP) [ Time Frame: From Baseline (Day 1) to End of Study (average of 20 months) ]
    An adverse event (AE) is any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical investigation subject administered a pharmaceutical product, which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. AEs leading to permanent withdrawal of study medication.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Change from Baseline (Day 1) to Day 43 in Myasthenia Gravis-Activities of Daily Living (MG-ADL) score within one treatment cycle [ Time Frame: From Baseline (Day 1) to end of treatment cycle (up to 6 weeks) ]

    The Outcome Measure is applicable for the first 3 treatment cycles. 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.


  2. Change from Baseline (Day 1) to Day 43 in Quantitative Myasthenia Gravis (QMG) score within one treatment cycle [ Time Frame: From Baseline (Day 1) to end of treatment cycle (up to 6 weeks) ]
    The Outcome Measure is applicable for the first 3 treatment cycles. The total QMG score is obtained by summing the responses to each individual item (13 items; Responses: None=0, Mild=1, Moderate=2, Severe=3). The score ranges from 0 to 39, with lower scores indicating lower disease activity.

  3. Change from Baseline (Day 1) to Day 43 in Myasthenia Gravis-Composite (MG-C) score within one treatment cycle [ Time Frame: From Baseline (Day 1) to end of treatment cycle (up to 6 weeks) ]
    The Outcome Measure is applicable for the first 3 treatment cycles. The total MG-C score is obtained by summing the responses to each individual item (10 items; Grade:0-9 depending on item). The score ranges from 0 to 50, with lower scores indicating lower disease activity.

  4. Change from Baseline (Day 1) to Day 43 in Myasthenia Gravis (MG) Symptoms Patient Reported Outcome (PRO) 'Muscle Weakness Fatigability' score within one treatment cycle [ Time Frame: From Baseline (Day 1) to end of treatment cycle (up to 6 weeks) ]

    The Outcome Measure is applicable for the first 3 treatment cycles. The MG symptoms PRO instrument consists of 42 items across 5 scales: ocular symptoms (items 1-5); bulbar symptoms (items 6-15); respiratory symptoms (items 16-18); physical fatigue (items 19-33) and muscle weakness fatigability (items 34-42).

    The study participant will be asked to choose the response option that best describes the severity of ocular, bulbar, and respiratory symptoms over the past 7 days using a 4-point Likert scale ("none" to "severe") and how frequently they experience physical fatigue and muscle weakness fatigability over the past 7 days using a 5-point Likert scale ("none of the time" to "all of the time"), respectively.


  5. Change from Baseline (Day 1) to Day 43 in MG Symptoms PRO 'Physical Fatigue' score within one treatment cycle [ Time Frame: From Baseline (Day 1) to end of treatment cycle (up to 6 weeks) ]

    The Outcome Measure is applicable for the first 3 treatment cycles. The MG symptoms PRO instrument consists of 42 items across 5 scales: ocular symptoms (items 1-5); bulbar symptoms (items 6-15); respiratory symptoms (items 16-18); physical fatigue (items 19-33) and muscle weakness fatigability (items 34-42).

    The study participant will be asked to choose the response option that best describes the severity of ocular, bulbar, and respiratory symptoms over the past 7 days using a 4-point Likert scale ("none" to "severe") and how frequently they experience physical fatigue and muscle weakness fatigability over the past 7 days using a 5-point Likert scale ("none of the time" to "all of the time"), respectively.


  6. Change from Baseline (Day 1) to Day 43 in MG Symptoms PRO 'Bulbar symptoms' score within one treatment cycle [ Time Frame: From Baseline (Day 1) to end of treatment cycle (up to 6 weeks) ]

    The Outcome Measure is applicable for the first 3 treatment cycles. The MG symptoms PRO instrument consists of 42 items across 5 scales: ocular symptoms (items 1-5); bulbar symptoms (items 6-15); respiratory symptoms (items 16-18); physical fatigue (items 19-33) and muscle weakness fatigability (items 34-42).

    The study participant will be asked to choose the response option that best describes the severity of ocular, bulbar, and respiratory symptoms over the past 7 days using a 4-point Likert scale ("none" to "severe") and how frequently they experience physical fatigue and muscle weakness fatigability over the past 7 days using a 5-point Likert scale ("none of the time" to "all of the time"), respectively.


  7. MG-ADL responder (≥2.0-point improvement from Baseline [Day 1] to end of Day 43) within one treatment cycle [ Time Frame: From Baseline (Day 1) to end of treatment cycle (up to 6 weeks) ]
    The Outcome Measure is applicable for the first 3 treatment cycles. A MG-ADL responder is defined as achieving at least 2.0-point improvement in the MG-ADL score from Baseline.

  8. Time to MG-ADL response (≥2.0-point improvement from Baseline [Day 1]) within one treatment cycle [ Time Frame: From Baseline (Day 1) to end of treatment cycle (up to 6 weeks) ]
    The Outcome Measure is applicable for the first 3 treatment cycles. Time to achieve MG-ADL response, defined as at least 2.0-point improvement from Baseline.

  9. Time between consecutive treatment cycles [ Time Frame: From end of the 6-week treatment cycle (Day 43) to the next 6-week treatment cycle (Day 1), assessed up to 2.5 years ]
    Time between consecutive treatment cycles: Study participants will be assessed for MG worsening prior to repeated cycles. In case of symptom worsening (eg, an increase of 2.0 points on the MG-ADL or 3.0 points on the QMG scale) between assessments, resulting in a need for additional treatment, study participants will undergo another 6-week treatment cycle followed by an Observation Period, based on the Investigator's discretion.

Individual Participant Data (IPD) Sharing Statement:
Plan to Share IPD: Yes
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 prespecified 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.
