Brief Summary:

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of efgartigimod PH20 SC 1000 mg, and the clinical efficacy, PD, pharmacokinetics (PK), immunogenicity, impact on the quality of life (QoL) of the participants, treatment satisfaction, and administration method preference, and the feasibility of self- and caregiver-supported administration of the SC injection.

Treatment duration: 3-week treatment periods, repeated as needed with at least 28 days in between treatment periods

Health measurements: total levels of immunoglobulin G (IgG), Acetylcholine receptor binding autoantibodies (AChR-Ab) levels, Myasthenia Gravis Activities of Daly Living (MG-ADL).

  12. Incidence of ADAs to rHuPH20 over time [ Time Frame: Up to 3.5 years ]
  13. Prevalence of ADAs to rHuPH20 over time [ Time Frame: Up to 3.5 years ]
  14. Incidence of NAbs against rHuPH20 over time [ Time Frame: Up to 3.5 years ]
  15. Prevalence of NAbs against rHuPH20 over time [ Time Frame: Up to 3.5 years ]
  16. Changes in total Myasthenia Gravis Quality of Life Questionnaire (15-item scale revised) (MG-QoL15r) from baseline [ Time Frame: Up to 3.5 years ]
  17. Cycle baseline by cycle (for MG-QoL15r) [ Time Frame: Up to 3.5 years ]
  18. Changes in EuroQoL 5 Dimensions 5-Level (EQ-5D-5L) visual analog scale (VAS) score from baseline [ Time Frame: Up to 3.5 years ]
  19. Cycle baseline by cycle (for EQ-5D-5L) [ Time Frame: Up to 3.5 years ]
  20. EQ-5D-5L responses over time by cycle [ Time Frame: Up to 3.5 years ]
  21. Number of participants who performed self-administration at home over time by cycle [ Time Frame: Up to 3.5 years ]
  22. Percentage of participants who performed self-administration at home over time by cycle [ Time Frame: Up to 3.5 years ]
  23. Number of caregivers who administered the injection to the participant at home over time by cycle [ Time Frame: Up to 3.5 years ]
  24. Percentage of caregivers who administered the injection to the participant at home over time by cycle [ Time Frame: Up to 3.5 years ]
  25. Number of training visits needed for the participant or caregiver to be competent to start administering efgartigimod PH20 SC [ Time Frame: Up to 3.5 years ]
  26. Number of self- or caregiver-supported study drug administration among all study treatment visits at home [ Time Frame: Up to 3.5 years ]

    • Women of Child bearing potential (WOCBP) must have a negative urine pregnancy test at baseline before investigational medicinal product (IMP) can be administered.

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. The participant was discontinued early from studies ARGX-113-2001 or ARGX-113-1705, unless the reason for discontinuation from study ARGX-113-1705 was to roll over into study ARGX-113-2002.

    a. Participants who, in the investigator's judgment, are not benefiting from efgartigimod IV in study ARGX-113-1705 Part B are not eligible for roll over into ARGX-113-2002.

  2. Are pregnant or lactating, or intend to become pregnant during the study or within 90 days after the last dose of investigational medicinal product (IMP)
  3. Has any of the following medical conditions:

    1. Clinically significant uncontrolled chronic bacterial, viral, or fungal infection at roll-over
    2. Any other known autoimmune disease that, in the opinion of the investigator, would interfere with accurate assessment of clinical symptoms of myasthenia gravis or put the participant at undue risk
    3. History of malignancy unless deemed cured by adequate treatment with no evidence of reoccurrence for ≥3 years before the first administration of investigational medicinal product (IMP).

      Participants with the following cancers can be included at any time:

      • adequately treated basal cell or squamous cell skin cancer
      • carcinoma in situ of the cervix

    4. Clinical evidence of other significant serious diseases, or the participant has had a recent major surgery, or who have any other condition that, in the opinion of the investigator, could confound the results of the study or put the participant at undue risk
  4. Received a live-attenuated vaccine within 28 days prior to study entry or plan to receive a live-attenuated vaccine during the study
  5. A known hypersensitivity reaction to efgartigimod, rHuPH20, or any of its excipients
