RYSTIGGO
RYSTIGGO (rozanolixizumab-noli) is a neonatal Fc receptor blocker indicated for the treatment of generalized myasthenia gravis (gMG) in adult patients. It is specifically approved for individuals who are anti-acetylcholine receptor (AChR) or anti-muscle-specific tyrosine kinase (MuSK) antibody positive. This medication provides a targeted therapeutic option for managing these specific antibody-positive forms of the autoimmune neuromuscular disorder.
How RYSTIGGO Works
Rozanolixizumab-noli is a humanized IgG4 monoclonal antibody that binds to the neonatal Fc receptor (FcRn). By binding to this receptor, the drug blocks its interaction with immunoglobulin G (IgG). This mechanism results in a reduction of circulating IgG levels, which includes the autoantibodies responsible for the symptoms of generalized myasthenia gravis.
