• Age >= 12 years (or >= 18 years in France) at time of signing Informed Consent Form
• Confirmed diagnosis of gMG meeting the following criteria:
- Documented history of myasthenic weakness
- MG severity of MGFA Class II, III, or IV (Patients with MG Class IV at participating sites in France are excluded from the study) at screening
- The confirmation of the diagnosis has to be documented and supported by positive serologic test for one of the three antibody types: anti- AChR, anti- MuSK or anti- LRP4 at screening (antibody status must be confirmed by the central laboratory for all antibody types). For sites in Germany and the Netherlands, confirmation of the diagnosis has to be documented and supported by pre-existing positive serologic test results for one of the three antibody types (anti-AChR, anti-MuSK, or anti-LRP4), which must have been ordered by a health care professional (HCP) for the patient as part of the patient’s historical SOC
• A total MG-ADL score of >=5 points at screening with more than 50% of this score attributed to non-ocular items
• Ongoing gMG treatment at a stable dose and not exceeding the maximum protocol allowed doses
• No contraindication to at least one of the rescue treatments: IVIg, PE, or high dose corticosteroids
• For female patients of childbearing potential: agreement to remain abstinent (refrain from heterosexual intercourse) or use adequate contraception during the treatment period and for at least 3 months after the final dose of satralizumab
