Efficacy of Methotrexate in Myasthenia Gravis
Myasthenia GravisMyasthenia gravis is a rare neuromuscular disorder characterized by weakness and fatigability of ocular, bulbar, and extremity musculature. The specific aim of this study is to determine if oral methotrexate is an effective therapy for myasthenia gravis (MG) patients who are prednisone dependent. Patients will be randomized to receive either methotrexate or placebo and those who are entered onto this trial will have symptoms and signs of the disease while on prednisone therapy. The hypothesis is that adding methotrexate therapy in these patients will improve the MG manifestations so that the prednisone dose can be reduced and clinical measures of MG severity will improve.

Efficacy and Safety Study of GB-0998 for Treatment of Generalized Myasthenia Gravis
Generalized Myasthenia GravisThis randomized controlled, multi-center study will carry out to assess the efficacy of GB-0998 compared to plasmapheresis in the treatment of the generalized Myasthenia Gravis based on the changes in Quantitative Myasthenia Gravis score (QMG score) as primary endpoint, and in addition, to assess the safety of GB-0998
A Study to Assess the Effect of CellCept (Mycophenolate Mofetil) and Reduced Corticosteroids in...
Myasthenia GravisGeneralizedThe efficacy and safety of CellCept (1g po, bid for 36 weeks) will be assessed in patients with myasthenia gravis receiving prednisone, or other corticosteroids. During the study, patients will undergo gradual corticosteroid dose reduction, if they respond to treatment. The anticipated time on study treatment is 3-12 months, and the target sample size is 100-500 individuals.
Mycophenolate Mofetil in Myasthenia Gravis
Myasthenia GravisThis is a prospective, multi-center, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial to determine the efficacy and safety of mycophenolate mofetil (MM) in combination with prednisone as the initial form of immunosuppression in patients with acquired myasthenia gravis (MG).

Generalized Myasthenia GravisThis is a Long-Term, Single-Arm, Open-Label, Multicenter Phase 3 follow-on trial of the ARGX-113-1704 study to evaluate the safety and tolerability of ARGX-113 in patients with gMG. Patients who have completed at least 1 cycle of treatment and at least 1 year of trial ARGX-113-1705 and have started Part B are eligible to enroll in the open-label trial ARGX-113-2002 to receive efgartigimod by SC administration.
Safety and Efficacy Study of RA101495 in Subjects With Generalized Myasthenia Gravis
Generalized Myasthenia GravisThe purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of RA101495 in patients with generalized Myasthenia Gravis (gMG). Subjects will be randomized in a 1:1:1 ratio to receive daily SC doses of 0.1 mg/kg RA101495, 0.3 mg/kg RA101495, or matching placebo for 12 weeks.
The Effect of Spinal Stabilization Exercises in Patients With Myasthenia Gravis
Myasthenia GravisMyasthenia Gravis (MG) is an autoimmune disease characterized by increased exercise-induced fatigue and muscle weakness. MG is a disease caused by impaired receptor function due to antibodies to nicotinic acetylcholine receptors in postsynaptic region in voluntary skeletal muscles.Spinal stabilization exercises, which use the basic principles of motor learning, aiming to improve the coordination, contraction rate and endurance of the body muscles by increasing kinesthetic awareness, can be used to strengthen body stability. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of spinal stabilization exercises on fatigue, muscle strength, pulmonary functions and functional capacity in patients with MG.
