Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: RC18 160mg

Patients received the test group RC18 160mg weekly administered subcutaneously for 24 times.

Biological: RC18 160mg
subcutaneous injection

Experimental: RC18 240 mg

Patients received the test group RC18 240mg weekly administered subcutaneously for 24 times.

Biological: RC18 240 mg
subcutaneous injection

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. The average variation of QMG scores of the twenty-fourth week compared to the QMG scores of baseline [week 24]

    QMG score=Quantitative Myasthenia Gravis Score

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. The average variation of clinical absolute score for myasthenia gravis of the twelfth and twenty-fourth weeks compared to Clinical absolute score for myasthenia gravis of baseline [week 12,24]

    It is best that the assessors in each center are fixed during the study.

  2. The average variation of QMG score of the twelfth week compared to the OMG scores of baseline [week 12]

    QMG score=Quantitative Myasthenia Gravis Score
