Addressing knowledge gaps in generalized myasthenia gravis (gMG) care

argenx supports the global healthcare community’s independent initiatives (e.g., research, quality improvement, and education) to improve patient outcomes in areas of unmet medical need that are aligned with argenx medical and scientific strategies. The purpose of this RFP is to enhance education for healthcare professionals (HCPs), specifically general neurologists, neuromuscular specialists, nurses, and physician assistants, involved in diagnosis, treatment, and management of patients with gMG. Our intent is to fund educational initiatives that are designed to close at least one of the following independently identified healthcare gaps; however, other independently identified healthcare gaps are also encouraged to be included:

• Improve knowledge in recognizing the burden of disease patients experience including:

  • Progression from ocular MG to gMG
  • Increased risks of crisis in earlier stages of disease
  • Impacts of delayed diagnosis on disability
  • Evolution of pathologic alterations of the neuromuscular
  • junction (NMJ) in gMG
• Improve knowledge and competence of current treatment-based guidelines for the use of targeted therapies such as FcRn antagonists to potentially address the unmet need in earlier stages of gMG
• Enhance understanding of individualized dosing, management and mitigation of treatment related adverse events
