Summary

This study tests an experimental drug called empasiprubart in people with a specific type of generalized myasthenia gravis (gMG) who have AChR antibodies. The goal is to see if the drug is safe and can improve symptoms like muscle weakness that affect daily activities. Participants receive either empasiprubart or a placebo by intravenous infusion, and researchers track side effects and changes in symptom scores over 12 weeks.
