Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Evaluate the long-term safety of amifampridine phosphate in patients with MuSK antibody positive and AChR antibody positive myasthenia gravis.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The Primary objective :

To characterize the long-term safety and tolerability of amifampridine phosphate in patients with MG

The Secondary Objective:

To assess the clinical efficacy of amifampridine phosphate over time in patients with MG based on change in Myasthenia Gravis Activities of Daily Living Score (MG-ADL)

This was a long-term extension study for subjects who participated in Protocol MSK-002 where the efficacy and safety of amifampridine was evaluated in subjects diagnosed with MuSK MG or AChR-MG. The optimal dose and schedule for amifampridine from the end of the Run-in Period from Study MSK-002 was initially used for each patient. The Investigator could adjust the dose of amifampridine during the course of the trial, in order to optimize neuromuscular benefit for the patient. Clinic visits for safety assessment and for evaluation of MG-ADL were made at Months 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 21, 27, 33 and 39. Additional visits could occur at the discretion of the Investigator.

The Original protocol (12 Nov 2017) included analysis of MG-ADL change over time, however, Statistical Analysis Plan (SAP), dated 21 Feb 2023, removed the analysis of MG-ADL score change over time.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

amifampridine phosphate

tablets equivalent to 10mg amifampridine, 3 to 4 times per day. Initially, the daily amifampridine doses were to be the doses that were determined at the end of the Run-in Period from the MSK-002 study. The usual range was from 30 to 80 mg total daily dose, given in three (3) or four (4) doses, with no single dose \> 20 mg

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Amifampridine Phosphate

Intervention Type DRUG

tablets equivalent to 10mg amifampridine, titrated to an efficacious and tolerable dose, 3 to 4 times a day

2. Willing and able to provide written informed consent after the nature of the study has been explained and before the start of any research-related procedures.
3. Female patients of childbearing potential must have a negative pregnancy test (urine human chorionic gonadotropin \[HCG\] at the end of MSK-002 study); and must practice an effective, reliable contraceptive regimen during the study and for up to 30 days following discontinuation of treatment.
4. Ability to participate in the study based on overall health of the patient and disease prognosis, as applicable, in the opinion of the Investigator; and able to comply with all requirements of the protocol, including completion of study questionnaires.

Exclusion Criteria

3. Breastfeeding or pregnant at Screening or planning to become pregnant at any time during the study.
4. Intolerable amifampridine-related side effects
5. Treatment with an investigational drug (other than amifampridine) or device while participating in this study.
6. Any medical condition that, in the opinion of the Investigator, might interfere with the patient's participation in the study, poses an added risk for the patient, or confound the assessment of the patient.
