Detailed Description
This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, seamless and group sequential phase 2/3 study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of HBM9161 (HL161) subcutaneous injection in patients with generalized myasthenia gravis Phase 3 study design: A total of 120 subjects with positive AChR-Ab or MuSK-Ab and up to 24 subjects with negative AChR-Ab and MuSK-Ab are planned for this phase (The randomization will end after approximately 120 subjects with positive serum AchR-Ab or MUSK-Ab are enrolled) and randomized into 2 treatment regimens in a 1:1 ratio. Arm 1 will receive HBM9161 680 mg; Arm 2 will receive placebo. Whether or not AChR-Ab or MuSK-Ab is positive, and whether or not concomitant steroids are used will be randomization stratification factors.
First, eligible subjects will be screened into the double-blind treatment phase and blindly assigned to receive either HBM9161 680 mg or placebo for the first treatment period, administered once weekly (QW) for 6 doses.
Subjects who complete the first treatment period will start the administration of the second treatment period if they meet the dosing criteria for the second treatment period at Week 9.
The second treatment period will be administered once weekly (QW) for a total of 6 doses in the first treatment period, followed by an observation period (4 weeks) and a follow-up period. Subjects will be dosed for up to two treatment cycles during the study.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures
- Percentage of patients with sustained improvement (i.e. Entire Population) during the first treatment period and observation period [Baseline to Day 64]

- Percentage of patients with sustained improvement (AChR-Ab-positive or MuSK-Ab-positive patient population) during the first treatment period and observation period [Baseline to Day 64]
a reduction of ≥ 3 points from the baseline of Quantitative Myasthenia Gravis (QMG) score that persists for at least 64 days
- Percentage of patients with sustained improvement (AChR-Ab-positive or MuSK-Ab-positive patient populations) during the second treatment period and observation period [Baseline to Day 64]
a reduction of ≥ 3 points from the baseline of MG-ADL score that persisted for at least 64 days

-
A cycle of oral contraceptives (combined contraceptives or progestin-only) for at least 1 month prior to study drug administration; or
-

-
An intrauterine device, implanted by a qualified physician; or
-
Estrogen vaginal ring; or
-
Contraceptive patch.
-
Male subjects must use effective contraceptive methods or have their heterosexual partners use effective contraceptive methods during their participation in this clinical trial.
-
Meets MGFA myasthenia gravis clinical classification IIa-IVa (includes types IIa, IIb, IIIa, IIIb, and IVa) at the screening visit and at the baseline visit.
-
Positive or negative AchR-Ab/MUSK-Ab at the screening visit and meets at least 1 of the following 3 criteria:
-
Repeated electrical stimulation indicates neuromuscular junction transmission disorder (including medical history record);
-
Positive Tensilon test or neostigmine test (including medical history record);
-
The patient's MG symptoms improve after treatment with oral cholinesterase inhibitors at the judge of the physician.
-
Results from clinical laboratory tests at screening must be acceptable to the investigator.
Exclusion Criteria:
-
Has a serious illness or condition other than myasthenia gravis that, in the judgment of the investigator, would put the subject at risk because of participation in the study, or that would affect the results of the study and the subject's ability to participate in the study.
-
Females who are pregnant or lactating or planning to become pregnant during the study period, or females of childbearing potential who are not using an effective method of contraception.
-
Subjects with severe myasthenia gravis (such as Type IVb or V) who are judged by the investigator to be inappropriate for this study (e.g., expected to require artificial assisted ventilation during the study).
-
Presence of other autoimmune diseases (such as uncontrolled thyroid disease, severe rheumatoid arthritis, etc.) that may affect the efficacy assessment of the study drug or affect participation in this study.
-
