The goal of the AXIS Autoimmune Neurology Registry is to learn about the experiences of adults living with autoimmune neurological disorders, starting with myasthenia gravis (MG), over time. The main questions the registry aims to answer are: * How do symptoms, daily functioning, and quality of life change over time? * What treatments do participants use, and how are these treatments related to their symptoms and health? * What challenges do participants experience with treatment, including side effects, treatment burden, missed doses, and access to care? Participants will: * Join the registry and complete an enrollment survey (online or through a mobile app) * Complete a brief online survey about their MG approximately once a month * Provide information that can help confirm their MG diagnosis * Optionally, share their medical records with the research team This is an observational study. The registry will not assign treatments or ask participants to change their medical care. Information collected through the registry may help researchers better understand MG and improve future research and care.

This study will have two Phases: Phase 1a and Phase 1b. The goals of this clinical study are to learn more about the study drug KITE-363, by evaluating its safety, tolerability and efficacy in participants with relapsed/refractory autoimmune neurologic diseases. The primary objectives of this study are: * To evaluate the safety and tolerability of KITE-363 in participants with autoimmune neurologic diseases * To determine the recommended dose for Phase 1b. * To evaluate the preliminary efficacy of KITE-363 in participants with autoimmune neurologic diseases.

This study is a single-arm, open, 2-stage (dose-escalation phase and dose-expansion phase), multi-center, phase I clinical trial to evaluate the safety and tolerance of SYS6020 injection in the participants with refractory systemic myasthenia gravis, and determine the recommended dose (RD) for subsequent studies of the product, and to preliminarily evaluate the clinical efficacy of the product, as well as to explore the pharmacokinetics and immunogenicity of the product in vivo. The dose-escalation phase and dose-expansion phase include 7 periods, and they are respectively in sequence as follows: the screening period, apheresis period, pre-dosing assessment, SYS6020 injection infusion, DLT observation period, the primary follow-up period (6 months), and the long-term follow-up period (5 years). The DLT observation period is 28 days after receiving SYS6020 injection. The participants will not undergo lymphodepleting chemotherapy. The efficacy and safety profile of the participants will be continuously assessed during the trial. Efficacy measurement includes the MG-ADL, QMG, MGC, MG-QoL 15R scale, MGFA clinical classification, and MGFA post-intervention state (MGFA PIS) grading scales, as well as self-antibodies, etc. Safety measurement includes vital signs, physical examination, laboratory tests, cytokines, and ECG, etc. The adverse events and concomitant therapy will be continuously collected during the trial. In addition, during the study period, blood samples will be collected from participants who have received SYS6020 treatment for PK/PD test, and immunogenicity test. For the dose-escalation phase, 3 to 5 dose levels are proposed to be explored. The Safety Monitoring Committee (SMC) will discuss the safety data and make a decision if the next SYS6020 injection could be initiated or dose-escalation could be initiated. After the completion of the dose-escalation phase, the recommended doses would be determined for dose-expansion phase. For the dose-expansion phase, further safety and efficacy data will be collected among the participants who will receive the recommended dose of SYS6020 injection.

PRISMA, is a pregnancy registry study, focused on comprehensively collecting information about pregnancy in women with chronic neurological conditions from across the United States and internationally. Depending on their specific condition (MS, CIS, NMOSD, or other) and their specific treatment, participants will be asked to contribute to different aspects of the study. (1) The biosamples will be blood, breast milk, infant stool, maternal stool and vaginal swab samples, collected at specific time points. (2) The online surveys will be collected at specific time points. All study activities will be discussed with participants upon enrollment. By collecting this information, the investigators hope to gain deeper insights into the relationship between pregnancy, the neurological condition, and maternal and infant health. For example, one of the sub-studies focuses on breast milk collection for women planning postpartum treatment with Ocrevus, Rituxan, Briumvi or Kesimpta. This study is fully remote and all sample collection is optional, so participants can choose which types of samples they wish to provide. For blood draws, participants can schedule a home visit through ExamOne, making participation even more convenient. The investigators aim to enroll women with chronic neurological conditions who are planning pregnancy, currently pregnant, or within one year postpartum.

The MuSK myasthenia gravis 1000 study seeks to collect saliva samples from 1000 subjects with laboratory confirmed diagnosis of MuSK myasthenia to identify genetic variations associated with MuSK MG. The data collected may be used by researchers to gain a better understanding of the cause of MuSK MG and to identify biomarkers and targeted therapy for MuSK MG.

The purpose of this study is to assess how well nipocalimab works when compared to efgartigimod in participants with generalized myasthenia gravis (a condition in which body's immune system mistakenly attacks and damages the connection between nerves and muscles causing muscle weakness).

The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of nipocalimab on total serum immunoglobulin G (IgG) in pediatric participants 2 to less than (\<) 18 years of age (globally) and 8 to \<18 years of age (for Unites Stated (US) sites only), the safety and tolerability of treatment with nipocalimab in children and adolescents and to evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK) of nipocalimab in children and adolescents with generalized myasthenia gravis (gMG) who have an insufficient clinical response to ongoing, stable standard-of-care therapy.

A Study of the Anti-CD 19 Chimeric Antigen Receptor T Cell Therapy for Patients with Myasthenia Gravis

Neurological autoimmune diseases are a group of disorders characterized by the abnormal immune response attacking the nervous system, including the brain, spinal cord and peripheral nerves. These diseases exhibit high heterogeneity, diverse clinical presentations, and are challenging to diagnose and manage due to a lack of effective treatments. In this study, the investigators will recruit eight kinds of autoimmune diseases of nervous system including Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorder (NMOSD), Myasthenia Gravis (MG), Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyradiculoneuropathy (CIDP), idiopathic inflammatory myopathy (IIM), and multiple sclerosis (MS), autoimmune encephalitis (AE), Myelin Oligodendrocyte Glycoprotein Antibody-Associated Disease (MOGAD). Through this study, the investigators aim to discover biomarkers with high sensitivity, specificity, and stability, which can support early diagnosis, disease monitoring, and personalized treatment for neurological autoimmune diseases, thereby improving the quality of life and prognosis for patients.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of nipocalimab compared to placebo in participants with generalized myasthenia gravis (gMG). The purpose of the subcutaneous substudy is to evaluate how well it works in the body (pharmacodynamic \[PD\]) when given as an injection under the skin (subcutaneous) compared to when given through a vein (intravenous) in participants with gMG.

This study will make use of a cross-sectional design of MG patients and non-MG participants to quantitatively assess key MG symptoms, and to explore the applicability of machine learning algorithms to their measurement.

Neuroimmune diseases are more prevalent among women of reproductive age. Studies have shown that neuroimmune diseases may impact fertility. Therefore, effective management of neuroimmune diseases during pregnancy is particularly important. This study included a follow-up period of up to five years in patients with pregnancy-associated neuroimmune disorders. Data collected included relapse frequency, symptomatology, imaging findings, treatment regimens, peripheral blood profiles, EDSS scores, and MRI results. In addition, maternal drug concentrations, postpartum relapse rates, and neonatal development were monitored after delivery. Following the successful completion of the five-year follow-up, the research team plans to continue the prospective epidemiological study with ten-year follow-up phases. The aim of this study is to generate detailed clinical data on pregnancy-associated autoimmune diseases and to equip clinicians with evidence-based strategies for optimizing disease management during the reproductive age.

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.

Individuals with MG (IwMG) experience shortness of breath that may be activity-related, occur at rest and even happen during sleep. Dyspnea is a complex, multidimensional and multifactorial symptom involving sensory perception, cognition and emotion. Identifying the cause(s) of dyspnea in MG may assist in finding therapeutic strategies, reducing discomfort, improving QoL and potentially limiting respiratory deterioration and incidence of MG crisis.

Myasthenia gravis primarily results from neuromuscular junction dysfunction and damage, leading to chronic muscle weakness. While combined traditional and Western medicine treatments are now common, TCM tongue diagnosis remains a simple and practical clinical method. However, results can vary among different practitioners. Therefore, you are interested in using scientific methods to compare TCM tongue diagnosis images between patients with myasthenia gravis and healthy individuals to aid in diagnosis.

The overall purpose of this pilot study is to examine the feasibility, acceptability, and tolerability of light and moderate intensity exercise in adults with MGeffect of light vs. moderate intensity exercise on health outcomes. Participants will be enrolled into the NeuroWell exercise program, which is geared toward individuals with neurological disorders or injuries and led by Certified Exercise Physiologists (CEPs) at the HealthPartners Neuroscience Center. A total of 20 people with MG will be enrolled in this study and participate in a small group exercise program 3 times a week for 12 weeks. Participants will be randomized into two exercise groups: 1) Light intensity or 2) Moderate intensity. We hypothesize that light and moderate intensity exercise will be feasible, acceptable, and tolerable in adults with MG and that individuals in the light intensity exercise group will be able to achieve the same improvement in health outcomes as the moderate intensity group.

This single-arm pilot study evaluates the effects of whole-body electrical muscle stimulation (WB-EMS) exercise on neuromuscular and physical function in adults with neuromuscular disease (NMD). Due to motor unit impairments, NMD patients often cannot tolerate traditional exercise. WB-EMS bypasses voluntary activation limits by directly stimulating muscle contractions. Up to 50 adults with conditions like ALS, SMA, and MG will undergo 20-minute supervised WB-EMS sessions (1-2 times weekly for 4-8 weeks) using the Katalyst system. Outcomes include neural excitability (TMS), motor unit behavior (EMG, NCS), functional tests (walk, balance, strength), and patient-reported fatigue, pain, and quality of life. Strict safety monitoring and exclusion criteria are in place. This study will provide preliminary data on WB-EMS as a potential exercise modality for NMD.

A Phase 1 dose-escalation study designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and preliminary efficacy of anito-cel in subjects with generalized myasthenia gravis (GMG). Anitocabtagene autoleucel (anito-cel) is a BCMA-directed CAR-T cell therapy.

This is a multi-country, prospective safety study of pregnant women exposed to efgartigimod or efgartigimod PH20 SC any time within 25 days prior to conception or any time during pregnancy. Women exposed to efgartigimod or efgartigimod PH20 SC only during breastfeeding will also be eligible to enroll. Background rates of major congenital malformations (MCMs) will be obtained from populations within the same countries/regions as the countries/regions in which the efgartigimod or efgartigimod PH20 SC exposed pregnancies were reported.

This is a non-interventional, prospective, post authorization safety study. Patients with gMG who are expected to start treatment with efgartigimod at enrolment or are within their first cycle of efgartigimod at enrolment will be eligible to enroll into the efgartigimod cohort. Patients with gMG who have not been exposed to efgartigimod and for whom it is not planned to start treatment with efgartigimod at enrolment will be eligible to enroll into the non-efgartigimod cohort.

Myasthenia Gravis (MG) is a rare autoimmune disease that causes muscle weakness and fatigue. It occurs when the immune system produces antibodies that block communication between nerves and muscles. In some patients, the disease can suddenly worsen and cause severe breathing problems. This life-threatening situation is called a myasthenic crisis and requires immediate treatment in an intensive care unit (ICU). During such crises, patients may need to receive respiratory assistance through a ventilator. These episodes are often long and can lead to complications such as infections or heart problems. To manage a myasthenic crisis, doctors usually use treatments that remove or neutralize the harmful antibodies: plasma exchange (PLEX) or intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIg). Although both are effective, recovery can be slow, and many patients remain in the ICU for several weeks. Ravulizumab (Ultomiris®) is a new medicine that targets a specific part of the immune system called the complement system, which contributes to muscle damage in MG. It is already approved for adults with generalized MG who have anti-acetylcholine receptor (AChR) antibodies. Ravulizumab is given by intravenous infusion every eight weeks. Clinical studies have shown that it can improve symptoms within one week of starting treatment. Some doctors have started using ravulizumab early, after PLEX or IVIg, for patients hospitalized in the ICU for a myasthenic crisis. Early use of this treatment could help reduce the duration and severity of the crisis, leading to faster recovery and shorter hospital stays. However, there is currently no national study that systematically collects data on this approach. The EARLY-MG study aims to describe the condition and recovery of patients who receive ravulizumab early during a myasthenic crisis requiring ICU admission. The study will not test an experimental treatment or change medical care. It is an observational study. The main hypothesis of the study is that early administration of ravulizumab, after PLEX or IVIg, may help patients recover faster, improve muscle strength, and reduce complications and hospital stay. Around 30 adult patients with generalized MG and anti-AChR antibodies will be enrolled in 10 centers across France. Each patient will be followed for 26 weeks (about six months). Assessments will be performed at the start of the study and at weeks 2, 4, 10, 18, and 26. Investigators will collect information such as: * Duration of stay in the ICU and in the hospital after receiving ravulizumab * Duration of mechanical ventilation, if needed * Clinical improvement using standard evaluation scales (Myasthenia Gravis Activities of Daily Living, MG Foundation of America classification, and Garches' score) * Occurrence of any complications or additional treatments The study will last about 18 months in total, including one year for patient inclusion and six months of follow-up per patient. The results may help guide future recommendations and improve patient care in France and worldwide.
