Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
Inclusion Criteria only for Treatment-Experienced Subjects
- Subjects 18 years to 75 years (inclusive) at screening
- Subjects with documented and confirmed pre-existing diagnosis of Primary Immunodeficiency (PI) with features of hypogammaglobulinemia requiring Immunoglobulin G (IgG) replacement therapy including but not limited to the following humoral-based immunodeficiency syndromes (example, X-linked agammaglobulinemia, common variable immunodeficiency), and combined immunodeficiency syndromes without lymphocytopenia (example, hyper immunoglobulin M immunodeficiency syndrome).
- Subjects have not had an Serious bacterial infection (SBI) or been hospitalized for infection of any etiology (example, viral, fungal, parasitic) within the last 3 months prior to screening or during screening.
- Subjects currently receiving IgG replacement therapy for ≥3 months via Intravenous (IV) or Subcutaneous (SC) infusion. Subjects receiving Intravenous Immune Globulin (generic terminology) (IVIG) prior to study must receive a dosage of at least 200 milligram per kilogram (mg/kg) per infusion.
- Subjects whose screening IgG trough levels must be ≥500 milligram per deciliter (mg/dL).
- Subjects have signed an informed consent form.
Inclusion Criteria only for Treatment-Naïve Subjects
- Subjects 6 years to 75 years (inclusive) at screening.
- Subjects with documented and confirmed diagnosis of PI with features of hypogammaglobulinemia requiring IgG replacement therapy including but not limited to the following humoral-based immunodeficiency syndromes (example, X-linked agammaglobulinemia, common variable immunodeficiency), and combined immunodeficiency syndromes without lymphocytopenia (example, hyper immunoglobulin M immunodeficiency syndrome).
- Subjects have never received IgG replacement treatment (ie, no prior immune globulin replacement therapy).
- Subjects whose screening IgG level must be ≤400 mg/dL.
- Subjects do not have an SBI nor requires hospitalization for infection of any etiology (example, viral, fungal, parasitic) during screening or at baseline.
- Subjects have signed an informed consent.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Subjects with clinical evidence of any significant acute or chronic disease that, in the opinion of the investigator, may interfere with successful completion of the trial or place the subject at undue medical risk.
- Subjects have had a known serious adverse reaction (AR) to immunoglobulin or any anaphylactic reaction to blood or any blood-derived product.
- Subjects who have a history of blistering skin disease, clinically significant thrombocytopenia, bleeding disorder, diffuse rash, recurrent skin infections, or other disorders where SC therapy would be contraindicated during the study.
- Subjects have known isolated IgG subclass deficiency; isolated specific antibody deficiency (SAD) or selective IgG deficiency; or transient hypogammaglobulinemia of infancy.
- Subjects have known Selective Immunoglobulin A (IgA) Deficiency (with or without antibodies to IgA).
- Subjects have significant proteinuria (≥3+ or known urinary protein loss >1 gram g/24 hours or nephrotic syndrome), has acute renal failure, is on dialysis, and/or has severe renal impairment on Screening laboratory testing (blood urea nitrogen [BUN] or creatinine more than 2.5 times the upper limit of normal [ULN]).
- Subjects have screening values of aspartate aminotransferase (AST) or alanine aminotransferase (ALT) levels exceeding more than 2.5 times the ULN for the expected normal range for the testing laboratory.
- Subjects have hemoglobin <9 gram per deciliter (g/dL) at screening.
- Subjects have a history (either 1 episode within the year prior to the Screening Visit or 2 previous episodes over a lifetime) of or current diagnosis of thromboembolism (example, myocardial infarction, cerebrovascular accident or transient ischemic attack) or deep venous thrombosis.
- Subjects are currently receiving anti-coagulation therapy which would make SC administration inadvisable (vitamin K antagonists, nonvitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants [example, dabigatran etexilate targeting Factor IIa, rivaroxaban, edoxaban, and apixaban targeting Factor Xa], and parenteral anticoagulants [example, fondaparinux]).
- Subjects currently have a known hyperviscosity syndrome.
- Subjects have an acquired medical condition that is known to cause secondary immune deficiency, such as chronic lymphocytic leukemia, lymphoma, multiple myeloma, chronic or recurrent neutropenia (absolute neutrophil count less than 1000/microliter (μL) [1.0 x109/L]), or human immunodeficiency virus infection/acquired immune deficiency syndrome.
- Subjects have a known previous infection with or clinical signs and symptoms consistent with current hepatitis B virus or hepatitis C virus infection.
- Subjects are receiving any of the following medications: (a) immunosuppressants including chemotherapeutic agents; (b) immunomodulators; (c) long-term systemic corticosteroids defined as daily dose >1 mg of prednisone equivalent/kg/day for >30 days. Note: Intermittent courses of corticosteroids of not more than 10 days would not exclude a subject. Inhaled or topical corticosteroids are allowed.
- Subjects (if <18 years of age) have non-controlled arterial hypertension at a level of greater than or equal to the 90th percentile blood pressure (either systolic or diastolic) for their age and height or the adult subject has non-controlled arterial hypertension (systolic blood pressure [SBP] >160 millimeter per mercury (mmHg) and/or diastolic blood pressure [DBP] >100 mmHg).

IGSC 20%: Treatment-experienced Cohort
IGSC 20%: Treatment-naïve Cohort
Participants first received 16 weekly doses of IGSC 20% using a subcutaneous (SC) infusion pump from Week 0 to Week 15. Participants entering study on intravenous immune globulin (IVIG), IGSC 20% was dosed at 1.37 times the equivalent weekly dose and participants entering on subcutaneous immunoglobulin (SCIG) received the same milligram/kilogram (mg/kg) equivalent weekly dose as given prior to study entry, without using a dose adjustment factor (DAF). Participants then received 9 biweekly doses of IGSC 20 % (i.e, IGSC 20% every 2 weeks) using an SC infusion pump, with the first IGSC 20% dose administered at Week 16 and the final dose given at Week 32.
Treatment-naïve participants received a loading dose of 150 mg/kg/day of IGSC 20% for 5 consecutive days (Week 0, Days 1 to 5) followed by weekly maintenance infusions of 150 mg/kg IGSC 20% starting Week 1 (Day 8) through Week 32. IGSC 20% infusion was administered using an SC infusion pump.
