At Week 104
RCP: Time to Disease Flare
Up to Week 52

Time to disease flare was defined as the number of days from Day 1 (dosing) to the date of the first treated and Adjudication Committee (AC)-determined IgG4-RD flare within the 52-week RCP. The date of disease flare was determined by the initiation of any flare treatment, including new or increased glucocorticoid (GC) treatment, other immunotherapy, or an interventional procedure, as deemed necessary by the Investigator to address the flare. Kaplan-Meier (KM) method was used to estimate the median time to flare, and 95% confidence interval (CI).

Change From Baseline at Week 26 in Myasthenia Gravis Activities of Daily Living (MG-ADL) Score in the Overall Study Population
Baseline and Week 26

MG-ADL score is an 8-item questionnaire that focuses on relevant symptoms and functional performance of activities of daily living over the previous 7 days. The MG-ADL score assesses disability secondary to ocular (2 items), bulbar (3 items), respiratory (1 item) and gross motor or limb (2 items) impairment related to effects from MG. Each response is graded 0 (normal) to 3 (most severe). The range of total MG-ADL scores is 0-24. A higher score represents more severe disease Outcome measure is reported for the overall population.

Frequently asked questions about Inebilizumab

What is inebilizumab?

Inebilizumab is an investigational monoclonal antibody developed by Amgen Inc. (ticker AMGN) for immunology indications. It is being studied in autoimmune hepatitis, generalized myasthenia gravis, primary membranous nephropathy, and immunoglobulin G4-related disease. It is in Phase 3 clinical development and is not described as an approved therapy in these programs.

What does inebilizumab target?

Inebilizumab targets CD19, a marker on B cells. By binding CD19, the monoclonal antibody is designed to act on B cells, the immune cell population implicated in antibody-mediated autoimmune conditions. This CD19-directed mechanism underlies its study across autoimmune hepatitis, generalized myasthenia gravis, membranous nephropathy, and IgG4-related disease.

Who makes inebilizumab?

Inebilizumab is developed by Amgen Inc., which trades under the ticker AMGN. Amgen is running the Phase 3 and Phase 2 studies of inebilizumab in autoimmune hepatitis, primary membranous nephropathy, generalized myasthenia gravis, and immunoglobulin G4-related disease across sites in the United States and several other countries.

What phase is inebilizumab in?

Inebilizumab is in Phase 3 development for autoimmune hepatitis and primary membranous nephropathy, and in Phase 2 development for generalized myasthenia gravis and immunoglobulin G4-related disease in pediatric patients. It is an investigational agent in these programs and is being evaluated in controlled, randomized, double-blind clinical trials.

What clinical trials is inebilizumab in?

Inebilizumab trials include NCT07851220, a Phase 3 study in primary membranous nephropathy recruiting in the United States, and NCT07598825, a Phase 3 trial in autoimmune hepatitis recruiting in the United States, Canada, and China. Pediatric studies include NCT07222553 in IgG4-related disease and NCT06987539 in generalized myasthenia gravis, both enrolling children from age 2.
