Phase 3
Completed
Conditions
Guillain-Barré Syndrome
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT02221271
Lead Sponsor
Nihon Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd
Brief Summary

Patients diagnosed with Guillain-Barré syndrome were confirmed based on the diagnostic criteria for Guillain-Barré syndrome. Patients who meet all inclusion criteria and do not conflict with the exclusion criteria will receive NPB-01 (intravenous immunoglobulin) 400mg/kg/day for five consecutive days.

Patients evaluate the Functional Grade(FG) and Arm Grade(AG) et al.

As a safety endpoint, the safety of NPB-01 will be investigated the occurrence of adverse events by the start of the study treatment.
