MaGiNE
GNE myopathy is a rare genetic muscle disease characterized by progressive muscle atrophy and weakness. The disease is caused by mutations in the gene that encodes the enzyme that initiates and regulates N-acetylneuraminic acid (Neu5Ac) biosynthesis and glycan sialylation. Currently, there is no therapy available for this disease. N-Acetylmannosamine (ManNAc), an orphan drug in development for GNE myopathy, is an uncharged monosaccharide and the first committed precursor in Neu5Ac biosynthesis. In this randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial the efficacy and long-term safety of ManNAc will be evaluated in subjects with GNE myopathy.
Open-label Extension of the ARGX-113-1802 Trial to Investigate the Long-term Safety, Tolerability, and Efficacy of Efgartigimod PH20 SC in Patients with Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathy (CIDP)
This is the open-label extension study of phase II ARGX-113-1802 to evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of the subcutaneous formulation of efgartigimod in adults with CIDP.
Patients already stabilized on efgartigimod PH20 SC will also have the opportunity to participate in a sub study to explore less frequent dosing of efgartigimod PH20 SC.
