Zilucoplan for French patients with anti‑AChR myasthenia gravis — three‑month outcomes
Official title: Multicenter Retrospective Study on the Short- and Medium-Term Efficacy and Tolerance of Zilucoplan Therapy in a Cohort of French Patients With Anti-AChR Myasthenia Gravis
Run by Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Nice · NCT06815133 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This project will try Zilucoplan (Zilbrysq) in French patients with anti‑AChR myasthenia gravis to see if muscle strength and quality of life improve over three months while tracking side effects.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates are French patients with a confirmed anti‑AChR antibody–positive diagnosis of myasthenia gravis who have been treated with Zilucoplan and have accessible clinical records covering the first three months of therapy.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients without anti‑AChR antibodies, those who never received Zilucoplan, or people whose records are unavailable or incomplete are unlikely to be included or to benefit from the study's findings.

What this trial studies
This is a multicenter retrospective observational review led by CHU Nice that collects real-world data on French patients with anti‑AChR myasthenia gravis treated with Zilucoplan. Investigators will extract baseline characteristics, three-month measures of muscle strength and validated quality-of-life scores, and recorded adverse events from medical records. The analysis focuses on short- and medium-term efficacy and tolerability in routine clinical practice rather than results from randomized controlled trials. The goal is to describe how patients outside of trials respond to Zilucoplan during the first three months of therapy.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If positive, the findings could support that Zilucoplan provides meaningful short-term improvements in muscle strength and daily functioning with acceptable tolerability for anti‑AChR myasthenia gravis patients.
How similar studies have gone: Prior randomized trials of complement-targeting therapies, including earlier prospective studies of zilucoplan, have shown benefits in anti‑AChR myasthenia gravis, and this retrospective work examines real-world short-term outcomes.
