About this trial

ME\&MG is a standalone software (digital solution) running on patients smartphones, connected to a web portal for physicians. It is intended to be used as an unsupervised digital self-assessment tool for the monitoring of disabilities in patients living with MG.

ME\&MG contains digital active tests for the assessment of ptosis, breathing, dysarthria, upper- and lower-limb (arms and legs) weakness, treatment follow-up, and validated e-questionnaires related to daily activities, pain, fatigue, sleep, and depression disorders.

The objectives of this study are to validate the accuracy, reliability and reproducibility of the unsupervised at-home self-assessment of symptoms on the patient's smartphone with ME\&MG versus the standard in-clinic testing, as well as to evaluate the safety of the solution, its usability and satisfaction.

Eligibility criteria

This trial accepts healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Aged over 18 Years

Diagnosed with gMG at screening with generalized muscle weakness meeting the clinical criteria for diagnosis of MG, as defined by the MGFA Clinical Classification Class II, III, or IV, and likely not in need of a respirator for the duration of the study, as judged by the investigator

With positive serologic testing for anti-AChR autoantibody at screening

Have read the information sheet and signed the informed consent form

Disqualifiers

Subjects having undergone thymectomy Plasma Exchange Therapy or Intravenous Immunoglobulin Therapy within four weeks of screening

Subjects having initiated FcRn inhibitor therapy within the four weeks preceding screening

Known medical or psychological condition(s) or risk factor(s) that, as judged by the investigator, might interfere with the subject's full participation in the study, pose any additional risk for the subject, or confound the assessment of the subject or outcome of the study.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

To demonstrate that ME&MG tests results performed at-home, under unsupervised condition, are correlated to standard tests results performed in-clinic, under supervised conditions

Pearson correlation coefficient will be used to assess the relationship between digital tests versus standard tests

Secondary outcomes

1

To compare results between in-clinic digital tests and in-clinic standard tests, test to test

pearson correlation coefficient between digital tests and standard tests

Time frame

2

To assess reproducibility between in-clinic digital tests and at-home digital tests

intraclass correlation coefficient

Time frame
