The therapy showed a 61% reduction in the risk of relapse and a favorable safety profile. Detailed data from the study will be presented at an upcoming medical meeting.

FDA approves subcutaneous injectable for myasthenia gravis treatment.

The FDA has approved a new injectable version of argenx's autoimmune disease drug Vyvgart, marketed as Vyv­gart Hytru­lo, for people with generalized myasthenia gravis.
