The participant has no known weakness in infancy and later develop fatigable weakness after aged 16 years and diagnosed with acquired gMG of both of the following:
1. History of abnormal neuromuscular transmission demonstrated by single fiber electromyography or repetitive nerve stimulation (RNS) or is for anti-muscle-specific kinase antibodies (MuSK-Ab) seropositive
2. Either a history of positive edrophonium chloride test OR a demonstrated improvement in MG signs with treatments such as oral acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitors, plasma exchange (PLEX), immunoabsorption, or intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIg)/ subcutaneous immunoglobulin (SCIg) treatment
The participant is receiving a stable dose of MG therapy before screening, including acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitors, steroids, or nonsteroidal immunosuppressive therapies (NSISTs) in combination or alone
You may not be if
Known autoimmune disease or any medical condition that would interfere with an accurate assessment of clinical symptoms of gMG or puts the participant at undue risk
