About this trial
The purpose of the study is to assess the clinical efficacy of rozanolixizumab in adult Chinese participants with generalized myasthenia gravis (gMG) in the first Treatment Cycle.

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Change from Baseline to Day 43 in Myasthenia Gravis-Activities of Daily Living (MG-ADL) score in the first Treatment Cycle
The total MG-ADL score is obtained by summing the responses to each individual item (8 items; Grades: 0, 1, 2, 3). The score ranges from 0 to 24, with a higher score indicating more disability. A positive change indicates worsening and a negative change indicates improvement.
Secondary outcomes
MG-ADL responder (≥2.0-point improvement from Baseline) at Day 43 in the first Treatment Cycle
A MG-ADL responder is defined as achieving at least 2.0-point improvement in the MG-ADL total score from Baseline.
Change from Baseline to Day 43 in Myasthenia Gravis-Composite (MG-C) score within first 6 week treatment cycle
The MG-C scale is a validated assessment, with a higher score indicating more severe disease and a 3-point change being of clinical relevance. The scale tests 10 items, with individual items being weighted differently. The overall score ranges from 0 to 50 (more severe disease). The items included ptosis/upward gaze (range: 0 \[\>45 second\] - 3 \[Immediate\]), double vision on lateral gaze (range: 0 \[\>45 second\] - 4 \[Immediate\]), eye closure (range: 0 \[Normal\] - 2 \[severe weakness\]), talking (range: 0 \[Normal\] - 6 \[difficult to understand speech\]), chewing (range: 0 \[Normal\] - 6 \[gastric tube\]), swallowing (range: 0 \[Normal\] - 6 \[gastric tube\]), breathing (range: 0 \[Normal\] - 9 \[ventilator dependence\]), neck flexion (range: 0 \[Normal\] - 4 \[severe weakness\]), shoulder abduction (range: 0 \[Normal\] - 5 \[severe weakness\]) and hip flexion (range: 0 \[Normal\] - 5 \[severe weakness\]), lower scores= lower disease activity.
Change from Baseline to Day 43 in Quantitative Myasthenia Gravis (QMG) score within first 6-week treatment cycle
The total QMG score is obtained by summing the responses to each individual item (13 items \[ocular and facial involvement, swallowing, speech, limb strength, and forced vital capacity\]; Responses: None=0, Mild=1, Moderate=2, Severe=3). The QMG is a validated assessment, with a higher score indicating more severe disease. Scoring for each item ranges from no weakness (0) to severe weakness (3), with an overall score range from 0 to 39. A 3-point change in the total score is considered clinically relevant.
Change from Baseline to Day 43 in Myasthenia Gravis (MG) Symptoms Patient Reported Outcome (PRO) 'Muscle Weakness Fatigability' score within first 6-week treatment cycle
The MG symptoms PRO instrument consisted of 42 items across 5 scales: ocular muscle weakness (items 1-5); bulbar muscle weakness (items 6-15); respiratory muscle weakness (items 16-18); physical fatigue (items 19-33) and muscle weakness fatigability (items 34-42). Study participants will be asked to choose response option that best describes how frequently they experienced muscle weakness fatigability (items 34-42) over the past 7 days using a 5-point Likert scale (1="none of the time" to 5="all of the time") for each item.
