Summary

This study tested whether people with generalized myasthenia gravis (gMG) can safely and effectively use an auto-injector to give themselves the drug zilucoplan at home. Thirty-one adults who were already on a stable dose of zilucoplan took part. The main goal was to see if they could deliver the full dose correctly each time, with safety and tolerability also monitored.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
zilucoplan
What this could lead to
If successful, this could make it easier for people with generalized myasthenia gravis to self-administer their medication at home, improving convenience and independence.
What could go wrong
This is a small, completed Phase 3 study focused on device usability, not on proving the drug works. The results may not apply to all patients, and self-injection errors could still occur.

Booster vaccination(s) should also be administered as clinically indicated, according to the local standard of care, for participants who have been previously vaccinated against Neisseria meningitidis. * Female participants of childbearing potential must have a negative urine pregnancy test prior to the first dose of study drug. * Male and/or female study participants 1. A male participant must agree to use contraception during the Treatment Period and for 40 days after the last dose of study medication, and refrain from donating sperm during this period. 2. A female participant is eligible to participate if she is not pregnant, not breastfeeding, and at least 1 of the following conditions applies: * Not a woman of childbearing potential (WOCBP) OR A WOCBP who agrees to follow the contraceptive guidance the Treatment Period and for 40 days after the last dose of study medication. * Capable of giving signed informed which includes compliance with the requirements and restrictions listed in the ICF and in this protocol. Exclusion Criteria: * Study participant has any medical or psychiatric condition that, in the opinion of the Investigator, could jeopardize or would compromise the study participant's ability to participate in this study. * Female participants who are breastfeeding, pregnant, or plan to become pregnant during the study. * Study participant has a known hypersensitivity to any components of the study medication (and/or an investigational device) as stated in this protocol. * Study participant has a clinically relevant active infection or a history of serious infection (resulting in hospitalization or requiring intravenous antibiotic treatment) within 6 weeks before Visit 1. * Study participant has a history of meningococcal disease. * Participant has previously participated in this study or participant has previously been assigned to treatment in a study of the medication under investigation in this study (except studies RA101495-02.201 (NCT03315130), RA101495-02.301 (NCT04115293), or RA101495-02.302 (NCT04225871), which are not excluded, unless the participant was required to withdraw from said studies for a safety reason which could reasonably recur). * Participant has participated in another study of an IMP (and/or an investigational device) different from ZLP within the previous 3 months or 5 half-lives, whichever is longer, or is currently participating in another study of an IMP (and/or an investigational device). * Current unstable liver or biliary disease at Screening (Visit 1), per Investigator assessment, defined by the presence of ascites, encephalopathy, coagulopathy, hypoalbuminemia, esophageal or gastric varices, persistent jaundice, or cirrhosis.
