- Change from Baseline in Myasthenia Gravis Activities of Daily Living (MG-ADL) score in acetylcholine receptor (AChR) Ab seropositive (AChRAb+) participants [ Time Frame: Baseline (Day 1) to Week 12 ]MG-ADL is an 8-item, participant-reported questionnaire that assesses gMG symptoms and their effects on activities of daily living. Each item is assessed on a 4-point scale where a score of 0 represents normal function and a score of 3 represents loss of ability to perform that function. Total score ranges from 0 to 24, with higher scores indicating greater functional impairment and disability.
- Change from Baseline in Quantitative Myasthenia Gravis (QMG) score in AChRAb+ participants [ Time Frame: Baseline (Day 1) to Week 12 ]QMG is clinician-reported assessment to evaluate muscle weakness in participants with MG. The QMG consists of 13 items ranging from 0 to 3 with 3 being the most severe. Total score ranges from 0 to 39, with higher scores representing greater impairment.
- Change from Baseline in MG-ADL score for AChRAb+ randomized withdrawal participants [ Time Frame: Baseline (Week 12) to Week 24 ]
- Percentage of AChRAb+ participants with greater than equal to (>=) 3-point improvement in QMG score [ Time Frame: Up to Week 12 ]
- Percentage of AChRAb+ participants achieving MG-ADL score of 0 or 1 by Week 12 [ Time Frame: Up to Week 12 ]
- Change from Baseline in MG-ADL score in AChRAB- (AChRAB negative) participants [ Time Frame: Baseline (Day 1) to Week 12 ]
- Percentage of Participants with Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) [ Time Frame: Up to 76 Weeks ]An adverse event (AE) is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a participant who has either been administered a study drug or has undergone study procedures.
- Percentage of Participants With Clinically Significant Changes in Vital Sign Measurements [ Time Frame: Up to 76 Weeks ]Vital signs, including systolic and diastolic blood pressures, pulse rate, respiratory rate, and temperature will be obtained and recorded at specified timepoints. All vital sign measures will be obtained with the participant in the supine position and having rested for at least 5 minutes.
- Number of Participants with Clinically Significant Changes in Laboratory Results [ Time Frame: Up to 76 Weeks ]Blood samples will be collected at specified timepoints for the analysis of laboratory parameters including clinical chemistry, hematology and urinalysis.
- Percentage of participants with clinical laboratory-related TEAEs or treatment emergent laboratory abnormalities. [ Time Frame: Up to 76 Weeks ]
