Phase 2 |
Detailed Description
This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind and placebo-controlled study. The investigational drug is HBM9161 injection, and the indication is MG.
The subjects will be randomized to three dose groups (340mg, 680mg and placebo) for a 6 weeks' double-blind treatment period followed by an open-label extension treatment period. The study will investigate the safety, efficacy and pharmacodynamic and pharmacokinetic of HBM9161 in patients with attack of MG in China.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Change in the Myasthenia Gravis Activities of Daily Living (MG-ADL) score from baseline to Day 43 [43 days]
The MG-ADL profile provides an assessment of MG symptom severity and measures 8 items on a 0-3 scale, with 0 being the least severe. The total sum of the 13 items represents the ADL score. The ADL score can range from 0 (least severe) to 24 (most severe)
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Change in the Myasthenia Gravis Composite (MGC) score from baseline to Day 43 [43 days]
The total QMG score is obtained by summing the responses to each individual item (13 items; Responses: None=0, Mild=1, Moderate=2, Severe=3). The score ranges from 0 to 39, with lower scores indicating lower disease activity.
- Change in the Quantitative Myasthenia Gravis (QMG) score from baseline to Day 43 [43 days]
The QMG test is a standardized quantitative strength scoring system and measures 13 items on a 0-3 scale, with 0 being the least severe. The total sum of the 13 items represents the QMG score. The QMG score can range from 0 (least severe) to 39 (most severe).
- Change in the Myasthenia Gravis Quality of Life 15(MG-QoL15r) score from baseline to Day 43 [43 days]
The MG-QoL 15r scale is a patient-reported score that assesses the patient's perception of impairment and disability and the degree to which the patient tolerates disease manifestations. Each question was graded on a 3-point scale from 0=normal to 2=severe with a score of 0 to 30; the higher score indicates worse MG disease activity
- Proportion of participants with a decrease on the MG-ADL Score by ≥ 2 points [43 days]
- Proportion of participants with an improvement and worse on the MGFA Post-intervention Status (MGFA-PIS) from baseline to Day 43. [43 days]
- Change in the MG-ADL score from baseline to Day 120 [120 days]
The MG-ADL profile provides an assessment of MG symptom severity and measures 8 items on a 0-3 scale, with 0 being the least severe. The total sum of the 13 items represents the ADL score. The ADL score can range from 0 (least severe) to 24 (most severe)
- Change in the MGC score from baseline to Day 120 [120 days]
The total QMG score is obtained by summing the responses to each individual item (13 items; Responses: None=0, Mild=1, Moderate=2, Severe=3). The score ranges from 0 to 39, with lower scores indicating lower disease activity.
- Change in the QMG score from baseline to Day 120 [120 days]
The QMG test is a standardized quantitative strength scoring system and measures 13 items on a 0-3 scale, with 0 being the least severe. The total sum of the 13 items represents the QMG score. The QMG score can range from 0 (least severe) to 39 (most severe).
- Change in the MG-QoL15r score from baseline to Day 120 [120 days]
The MG-QoL 15r scale is a patient-reported score that assesses the patient's perception of impairment and disability and the degree to which the patient tolerates disease manifestations. Each question was graded on a 3-point scale from 0=normal to 2=severe with a score of 0 to 30; the higher score indicates worse MG disease activity
- Proportion of participants with persistent improvement on the MGC score from baseline to Day 120 [120 days]
Improvement (decrease) in the MGC score by ≥ 3 points for 6 weeks
- Proportion of participants with persistent improvement on the MG-ADL score from baseline to Day 120 [120 days]
Improvement (decrease) in the MG-ADL Score by ≥ 2 points for 6 weeks
