Guillain-Barre syndrome
MONDO:0016218A spectrum of rare post-infectious neuropathies that usually occur in otherwise healthy patients. GBS is clinically heterogeneous and encompasses acute inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy (AIDP), acute motor axonal neuropathy (AMAN) and acute motor-sensory axonal neuropathy (AMSAN), Miller-Fisher syndrome (MFS) and some other regional variants.
Also known as: GBS, Guillain Barre syndrome, Guillain Barré syndrome, Guillain-Barre-Strohl syndrome, Guillain-Barré syndrome, Guillain-Barré-Strohl syndrome, post-infectious polyneuritis, post-infective polyneuritis

Can a new drug shorten Guillain-Barré recovery?
Disease control Not yet recruitingThis trial tests whether efgartigimod, a drug that lowers harmful antibody levels, can improve recovery in people with Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS), a rare nerve condition that can cause weakness and paralysis. Adults aged 18 to 70 with recent GBS onset will receive either efgar…
