Recruiting PHASE3 Ocular Myasthenia Gravis

Tests treatment safety and results for Ocular Myasthenia Gravis

Official title A Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Rozanolixizumab in Adult Participants With Ocular Myasthenia Gravis

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07463521

What this study is testing

What is Rozanolixizumab?

Rozanolixizumab is an investigational medicine, given as an injection under the skin, being studied as a potential treatment for ocular myasthenia gravis.

Also referred to as UCB7665.

Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.

What it's testing
The purpose of the study is to demonstrate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of rozanolixizumab compared with placebo in the treatment of adult study participants with Ocular Myasthenia Gravis.
  • Phase 3: a large, late-stage study
  • You might receive a placebo (an inactive treatment) instead of the study drug.
