About this trial
The purpose of the study is to demonstrate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of rozanolixizumab compared with placebo in the treatment of adult study participants with Ocular Myasthenia Gravis.
Eligibility criteria
Qualifiers
Participant must be a minimum of 18 years of age inclusive at the time of signing the informed consent form (ICF)
Participant has Myasthenia Gravis Foundation of America (MGFA) Class I with any ocular weakness at Screening through Baseline. The participant may have weakness in muscles of eye (ie, extraocular muscles that move the eyeball, including the medial rectus, lateral rectus, superior rectus, inferior rectus, superior oblique, and inferior oblique, orbicularis oculi muscles, and levator palpebrae superioris) but must have normal strength in all other facial, bulbar, and limb muscles.
Documented presence of autoantibodies against acetylcholine receptor (AChR) or muscle-specific kinase (MuSK), OR
Documented positive ice test (Ptosis recovers with the ice test [applied 2 minutes (min) to the ptotic lid] with >2mm improvement)
Disqualifiers
Participant has any clinically significant medical or psychiatric condition (including an alcohol or drug use disorder), recent major surgery (including thymectomy [within 3 months of Screening], solid organ, stem cell or marrow transplant), planned major surgery (including thymectomy) during study participation, and/or significant laboratory abnormality that, in the opinion of the investigator, could jeopardize or would compromise the study participant's ability to participate in this study.
Participant has been diagnosed with other diseases that lead to eyelid dropping, peripheral muscle weakness, or diplopia, including other autoimmune diseases that would interfere with an accurate assessment of the oMG clinical symptoms or other neurological diseases, such as congenital myasthenic syndromes, mitochondrial diseases, and muscular dystrophies.
Participant has a known hypersensitivity to other anti-Fc receptor (FcRn) medications, to any components of the study medication (including the excipient polysorbate 80) or has a known history of hyperprolinemia, since L-proline is a constituent of the rozanolixizumab formulation.
Participant has active neoplastic disease or has received treatment for neoplastic disease within 5 years of study entry (except for basal or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin, carcinoma in situ of the uterine cervix, carcinoma in situ of the breast, or incidental histological findings of prostate cancer [Tumor, Node, Metastasis (TNM) stage T1a or T1b] that has been definitely treated with standard of care approaches).
