NameTimeMethod
Main Objective: Assess the efficacy of eculizumab as compared with placebo in the treatment of refractory gMG based on the improvement in the MG-specific Activities of Daily Living profile (MG-ADL).;Primary end point(s): - change from baseline in the MG-ADL total score for eculizumab as compared with placebo;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Week 26 ;<br> Secondary Objective: - Safety and tolerability of eculizumab as compared with placebo in gMG subjects<br> - Efficacy of eculizumab compared with placebo<br> - Describe the pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of eculizumab<br> - Characterize the effect of eculizumab as compared with placebo on Quality of Life measures<br>
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Week 26;<br> Secondary end point(s): - Change from baseline in QMG total score <br> - Proportion of subjects with at least a 3-point reduction in the MG-ADL total score and with no rescue therapy<br> - Proportion of subjects with at least a 5 point reduction in the QMG total score<br> - Change from baseline in the Myasthenia Gravis Composite (MGC) scale total score<br> - Change from baseline in MG-QOL-15<br>
