Source: Pharmaceutical Mission, January 7, Reding Pharmaceuticals issued a press release saying it would receive exclusive development and commercial rights to argenx's new drug efgartigimod in Greater China, including Chinese mainland, Hong Kong, Taiwan and Macau, with a total of $175 million in co-payments.
press release, efgartigimod's first adaptive systemic severe muscle weakness has been filed for listing in the United States.
Efgartigimod is a "first-in-class" therapy that targets FcRn and is designed to reduce pathogenic IgG antibodies and block the IgG recirculation process.
FcRn binds are designed to prevent degradation of IgG, so by preventing the binding of IgG to FcRn, IgG antibodies that mediate autoimmune diseases are depleted more quickly, thereby reducing the symptoms of the disease. according to
, the product can treat autoimmune diseases known to be driven by pathogenic IgG antibodies, including severe muscle weakness (MG), common herpes (PV), immunocompytic platelet reduction (ITP), chronic inflammatory demyelinative multiple neuropathy (CIDP) and so on.
May 2020, efgartigimod reached the end of its main study in the critical Phase 3 clinical trial ADAPT for patients with anti-acetylcholine(AChR) antibody-positive systemic severe muscle weakness (gMG).
data showed that 67.7% of AChR antibody-positive patients treated with efgartigimod met the treatment standard (vs 29.7%) for the main study endpoint.
