Generalized Myasthenia Gravis Pipeline

Author(s)Nicholas J. Silvestri, MD, FAAN, Ali Habib, MD, Neelam Goyal, MD

Key Takeaways

Novel therapeutic agents for gMG target specific disease pathways, potentially improving efficacy and safety over traditional treatments.
Complement inhibitors and FcRn antagonists are among the promising emerging treatments for gMG.
These advancements may enhance patient outcomes, reduce disease burden, and offer personalized treatment options.
