About this trial
The purpose of the study is to evaluate efficacy of riliprubart compared to IVIg in adult participants with CIDP who are receiving maintenance treatment with IVIg. The study duration will be for a maximum of 109 weeks including screening, treatment phases, and follow-up.
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers
Participant must have CIDP or possible CIDP criteria, based on European Academy of Neurology (EAN)/Peripheral Nerve Society (PNS) Task Force CIDP guidelines, second revision (2021).
Participant must have either typical CIDP, or one of the following 2 CIDP variants: motor CIDP, multifocal CIDP (also known as Lewis Sumner Syndrome). Diagnosis must be confirmed by the study adjudication committee.
Participants must have responded to IVIg in the past 5 years.
Participant must be on a stable maintenance dosage of IVIg.

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Percentage of participants experiencing a response
A response is defined as decrease of ≥1 point from baseline in adjusted INCAT disability score at Week 24

Lasting response is defined as a decrease of ≥1 point in adjusted INCAT disability score
Secondary outcomes
