| List | Outcome | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Percent Change From Baseline in Total IgG Levels at Day 29 (mITT Analysis Set) | From week 0 to week 4 | ANCOVA Analysis of Percent Change From Baseline in Total IgG Level at Day 29 (ie, 7 days after the fourth IV or SC administration). |
| Secondary | Percent Change From Baseline in Total IgG Levels Over Time (mITT Analysis Set) | From baseline to week 10 | Total IgG level percent change from baseline over time for the overall population. |
| Secondary | Percent Change From Baseline in AChR-Ab Levels Over Time in AChR- Ab Positive Patients (mITT Analysis Set) | From baseline to week 10 | Percent reduction from baseline in AChR-Ab levels over time in AChR-Ab positive patients measured in mITT Analysis Set. Descriptive statistics have been used for this secondary end point. |
| Secondary | Percent Change From Baseline in IgG Subtype Levels Over Time (mITT Analysis Set) | Baseline to week 10 | Median (IQR) Percent Change From Baseline for the IgG Subtypes (IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, and IgG4) in the Overall Population. The highest number of patients among all weeks for the analysis is chosen for each arm. Descriptive statistics have been used for this secondary end point. |
| Secondary | AUEC of the Percent Change From Baseline in Total IgG Level (mITT Analysis Set) | From baseline to week 10 | AUEC of the percent reduction from baseline total IgG per dosing interval (days 1-8, days 8-15, days 15-22, and days 22-29), days 1-29, days 1-57 and over the entire study (days 1-71). The highest number of patients among all weeks for the analysis is chosen for each arm. Descriptive statistics have been used for this secondary end point. |
| Secondary | Еfgartigimod IV and PH20 SC Serum Pharmacokinetic Parameter Ctrough | From Week 1 to Week 4. | Evaluation of observed predose concentration (Ctrough) (after all doses for the IV and SC treatment arms). The analysis will present data from Week 1 to Week 4. Descriptive statistics have been used for this secondary end point. |
| Secondary | Efgartigimod IV Serum Pharmacokinetic Parameter Cmax | From Baseline to Week 3 | Evaluation of maximum observed concentration (Cmax) (after all doses for the IV treatment arm). The analysis will present data from Baseline to Week 3. Descriptive statistics have been used for this secondary end point. |
| Secondary | Incidence of ADA Against Efgartigimod (Safety Analysis Set) | From baseline to week 10 | Incidence of antidrug antibodies (ADA) against Efgartigimod in the overall population. ADA analysis is performed with a validated ELISA in a 3-tiered approach (ADA screening analysis, confirmatory analysis and a titration assay). Descriptive statistics have been used for this secondary end point. |
| Secondary | Incidence of Antibodies Against rHuPH20 in the SC Treatment Arm (Safety Analysis Set) | From baseline to week 10 | Incidence of antibodies against rHuPH20 in the Efgartigimod PH20 SC Arm. antibody analysis is performed with a validated ELISA in a 3-tiered approach (screening analysis, confirmatory analysis and a titration assay) Descriptive statistics have been used for this secondary end point. |
| Secondary | Incidence and Severity of AEs and SAEs (Safety Analysis Set) | From baseline to week 10 | Evaluation of incidence and severity of treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) and incidence of serious AEs (SAEs). Descriptive statistics have been used for this secondary end point. |
