Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
MGII (PRO) ocular score change from baseline to day 29 in part AUp to 29 days

The MGII is a scoring tool measuring disease severity. It consists of 22 patient-reported outcomes (PRO) and 6 physical examinations (PE). The Ocular PRO score varies between 0 and 18. The higher the score, the more severe the disease.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Incidence of (serious) adverse eventsUp to 111 weeks
MGII (PRO+PE) ocular score change from baseline to day 29 in part AUp to 29 days

The MGII is a scoring tool measuring disease severity. It consists of 22 patient-reported outcomes (PRO) and 6 physical examinations (PE). The Ocular PRO score varies between 0 and 18. The ocular PE score varies between 0 and 5. The higher the score, the more severe the disease.

MG-ADL ocular domain score change from baseline to day 29 in part AUp to 29 days

The MG-ADL scale assesses MG symptoms and their effects on daily activities. The ocular score varies between 0 and 16 (with 16 the most severe).

MGII total score change from baseline to day 29 in part AUp to 29 days

The MGII is a scoring tool measuring disease severity. It consists of 22 patient-reported outcomes (PRO) and 6 physical examinations (PE). The score varies between 0 and 84. The higher the score, the more severe the disease.

MGII (PE) ocular score change from baseline to day 29 in part AUp to 29 days

The MGII is a scoring tool measuring disease severity. It consists of 6 physical examinations (PE). The score varies between 0 and 5. The higher the score, the more severe the disease.

MG-ADL total score change from baseline to day 29 in part AUp to 29 days

The MG-ADL scale assesses MG symptoms and their effects on daily activities. The score varies between 0 and 24 (with 24 the most severe).

MGII ocular scores changes (PRO) from baseline in part A+BUp to 111 weeks

The MGII is a scoring tool measuring disease severity. It consists of 22 patient-reported outcomes (PRO) and 6 physical examinations (PE). The Ocular PRO score varies between 0 and 18. The ocular PE score varies between 0 and 5. The higher the score, the more severe the disease.

MG-QoL15r total score changes from baseline in part A+BUp to 111 weeks

The MG-QoL15r questionnaire is a patient-reported instrument that measures the impact of MG symptoms on Quality of Life. The score varies between 0 and 30 (with 30 the lowest quality of life).

NEI VFQ-25 score changes from baseline in part A+BUp to 111 weeks

The NEI VFQ-25 is a 25-item vision-targeted questionnaire. The score varies between 0 and 100 (with 0 being the worst score)

Percent change from baseline in total IgG levels over time in part A+BUp to 111 weeks
