Monoclonal Antibodies Had Varying Efficacy in Treating MG
A network meta‑analysis of 18 randomized trials compared six monoclonal antibodies for generalized myasthenia gravis. The study measured changes in MG‑ADL, QMG, MGC and MG‑QoL15r scores, finding that rozanolixzumab 10 mg/kg produced the largest ADL improvement, batoclimab 680 mg led QMG reduction, and eculizumab delivered the greatest quality‑of‑life gain. High‑dose nipocalimab consistently performed poorly, and satralizumab raised adverse‑event rates. The authors concluded no single antibody dominates across all outcomes, underscoring the need for individualized therapy.
