Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.
| List | Outcome | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Stage A: Percentage of Participants With Confirmed Evidence of Clinical Improvement(ECI) | Up to 12 weeks during the open-label stage A | |
| Primary | Stage B: Time to First Adjusted INCAT Deterioration Compared to Stage B Baseline | Up to 48 weeks during the randomized placebo-controlled stage B | |
| Secondary | Stage A: Time to Initial Confirmed Evidence of Clinical Improvement (ECI) | Up to 12 weeks during the open-label stage A | |
| Secondary | Stage A: Change From Stage A Baseline to Last Assessment in Stage A, in Adjusted INCAT Score | Up to 12 weeks during the open-label stage A | Adjusted Inflammatory Neuropathy Cause and Treatment (INCAT) scores range from 0-10 with a score of 10 indicating the greatest degree of disability. |
| Secondary | Stage A: Change From Stage A Baseline to Last Assessment in Stage A, in Medical Research Council (MRC) Sum Score | Up to 12 weeks during the open-label stage A | The Medical Research Council (MRC) Sum scores range from 0 to 60 with a lower score indicating greater muscle weakness. |
| Secondary | Stage A: Change From Stage A Baseline to Last Assessment in Stage A, in I-RODS Disability Scores | Up to 12 weeks during the open-label stage A | The Inflammatory Rasch-built Overall Disability Scale (I-RODS) score ranges from 0-100, with lower scores indicating the greatest degree of disability. |
| Secondary | Stage A: Change From Stage A Baseline to Last Assessment in Stage A, in TUG Score | Up to 12 weeks during the open-label stage A | The Timed Up and Go (TUG) score is calculated as the number of seconds needed to complete a series of actions. The longer time needed to complete this test (expressed in seconds) indicates lower mobility. |
| Secondary | Stage A: Change From Stage A Baseline to Last Assessment in Stage A, in Mean Grip Strength | Up to 12 weeks during the open-label stage A | This is measured with a handheld device called a vigometer |
| Secondary | Stage A: Exposure Adjusted Occurrence of Treatment-emergent Adverse Events and Serious Adverse Events | Up to 12 weeks during the open-label stage A | Treatment-emergent (serious) AEs expressed in number of events/100 PYFU (participant years of follow-up) |
| Secondary | Stage A: Pre-dosing Efgartigimod Serum Concentrations Over Time | Up to 13 weeks during the open-label stage A (12 weeks + optional 1 additional week to confirm evidence of clinical improvement (ECI)) |
