Johnson & Johnson Reports Nipocalimab’s BLA Submission to the US FDA for Treating Generalized Myasthenia Gravi

Shots:

  • Johnson & Johnson has submitted the BLA of nipocalimab (FcRn blocker) to the US FDA for treating generalized myasthenia gravis (gMG)
  • The submission was based on P-III (Vivacity-MG3) trial assessing the sustained efficacy & safety of nipocalimab + SoC (30mg/kg, IV loading dose followed by 15mg/kg, Q2W) vs PBO + SoC in gMG adults (n=199; antibody +ve & -ve) with an insufficient response for 24wks.
  • In the study, over 6mos. consistent dosing of nipocalimab + SoC showed sustained disease control as evaluated by MG-ADL improvement in antibody +ve adults (anti-AChR+, anti-MuSK+, anti-LRP4+)
