A plain-language summary of the goals, design and what participants do
This clinical trial is focused on studying the effects of a medication called ublituximab in patients with certain autoimmune diseases, specifically Myasthenia Gravis and Relapsing Multiple Sclerosis. Autoimmune diseases occur when the body's immune system mistakenly attacks its own tissues. Ublituximab is a type of medication known as a monoclonal antibody, which is designed to target specific cells in the immune system. The purpose of this study is to understand how the body processes and responds to ublituximab when it is given either through a vein (intravenous) or under the skin (subcutaneous).
During the study, participants will receive ublituximab and may also receive other medications such as methylprednisolone, cetirizine, paracetamol, diphenhydramine, dexamethasone, and sodium chloride. These medications are commonly used to manage symptoms or support the treatment process. The study will monitor how ublituximab is absorbed, distributed, and eliminated by the body, as well as its effects on certain immune cells called B-cells.
The trial will take place over several years, with participants attending regular visits to receive the medication and undergo assessments. These assessments will help researchers gather important information about the safety and effectiveness of ublituximab in treating these autoimmune conditions. The study aims to provide valuable insights that could improve treatment options for patients with Myasthenia Gravis and Relapsing Multiple Sclerosis.
The trial runs in 5 steps – from screening to follow-up. Each step says what happens and what the team monitors.

Myasthenia Gravis is a chronic autoimmune disorder that affects the communication between nerves and muscles, leading to muscle weakness. It occurs when the immune system mistakenly attacks the connections between nerves and muscles, disrupting the transmission of nerve signals. This results in varying degrees of muscle weakness, which can worsen with activity and improve with rest. Commonly affected muscles include those controlling eye and eyelid movement, facial expression, and swallowing. The severity of symptoms can fluctuate, and they may become more pronounced during periods of physical exertion or stress.
Relapsing Multiple Sclerosis is a form of multiple sclerosis characterized by episodes of new or worsening symptoms, known as relapses, followed by periods of partial or complete recovery. It is an autoimmune disease where the immune system attacks the protective covering of nerves, leading to communication problems between the brain and the rest of the body. Symptoms can vary widely, including fatigue, numbness, vision problems, and difficulty with coordination and balance. The disease progresses with alternating periods of relapses and remissions, where symptoms may improve or disappear. Over time, relapses can lead to a gradual increase in disability.
