Newer targeted therapies lower overall antibody concentrations or April 21, 2026 inhibit complement activity. We aimed to evaluate an siRNA (cemdisiran) targeting complement component 5 (C5) as https://doi.org/10.1016/ monotherapy and in combination with a C5 antibody (pozelimab) in generalised myasthenia gravis. S0140-6736(26)00690-2 See Comment page 1660 Methods NIMBLE is a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase 3 trial conducted at 86 centres in *Investigators listed in 13 countries. We enrolled patients aged 18 years or older with a diagnosis of generalised myasthenia gravis, positive appendix 1 (pp 3–14) serology for anti-AChR or anti-LRP4 antibodies, and a Myasthenia Gravis-Activities of Daily Living (MG-ADL) University of South Florida score of 6 or greater. Patients were randomly allocated to receive cemdisiran monotherapy (600 mg every 12 weeks; Morsani College of Medicine, Tampa, FL, USA (Prof T Vu MD); cemdisiran group), pozelimab monotherapy (200 mg every 4 weeks; pozelimab group), combined cemdisiran (200 mg University of California Irvine, every 4 weeks) and pozelimab (200 mg every 4 weeks; combination group), or placebo, all administered subcutaneously, Irvine, CA, USA (A A Habib MD); during a 24-week double-blind treatment period. The primary endpoint was change from baseline in MG-ADL scores University Hospitals at week 24, assessed in the modified intention-to-treat (mITT) primary analysis set (the first 245 randomly allocated Birmingham NHS Foundation Trust, Birmingham, UK patients who received any dose of study treatment and had at least one post-baseline assessment). A prespecified (Prof S Jacob MD); Institute of hierarchal statistical testing strategy was used; multiplicity was controlled for comparisons of cemdisiran versus Immunology and placebo and combination versus placebo (pozelimab was not statistically tested against placebo and was used only to Immunotherapy, University of assess the contribution of components to the combination treatment). Safety was mainly assessed by recording of Birmingham, Birmingham, UK (Prof S Jacob MD); Fondazione treatment-emergent adverse events in all patients who received any dose of study treatment. This study is registered IRCCS Istituto Neurologico with ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT05070858); the current status is active, not recruiting. Carlo Besta, Milan, Italy (R Mantegazza MD); International University of Findings Between Jan 20, 2022 and July 18, 2025, 390 participants were screened and, as of the data cut-o presented in Health and Welfare, Narita, this report (July 8, 2025), 284 were randomly allocated to the cemdisiran group (79 [28%] patients), pozelimab group Japan (Prof H Murai MD); (50 [18%]), combination group (80 [28%]), and placebo group (75 [26%]). Of 277 patients who received any study Rigshospitalet University of treatment, 263 (95%) completed the double-blind treatment period. In the mITT primary analysis set, at week 24, the Copenhagen, Copenhagen, Denmark (Prof J Vissing MD); least-squares mean change from baseline in MG-ADL total score was –4·5 (SE 0·4) in the cemdisiran group (n=64), Nerve and Muscle Center of –4·0 (0·4) in the combination group (n=67), and –2·2 (0·5) in the placebo group (n=59).

The most common adverse event in the cemdisiran group was upper respiratory tract infection (nine [12%] of (T Levine MD); Austin 78 patients), which occurred at a similar incidence in the placebo group (eight [11%] of 70). No serious or meningococcal Neuromuscular Center, Austin, TX, USA (Y Hussain MD); Charité infections occurred in the cemdisiran group. Adverse events leading to treatment discontinuation occurred in Universitätsmedizin Berlin, two participants (3%) in the placebo group and one participant (2%) in the pozelimab group. No deaths occurred Berlin, Germany during the double-blind treatment period. Two deaths occurred after the double-blind treatment period, one of which (Prof A Meisel MD); Clinical was assessed as treatment-related by the investigator but not treatment-related by the sponsor.

Concentration-time profiles of pozelimab are presented in appendix 1 (p 30). 1722 Articles Discussion infections were numerically lowest with cemdisiran This phase 3 trial showed the ecacy and safety of monotherapy. The finding that cemdisiran monotherapy cemdisiran (a novel GalNAc-conjugated siRNA targeting was also associated with lower rates of infection than the C5 mRNA) as a monotherapy administered combination group might be attributed to the finding subcutaneously every 3 months, as well as in combination that it only partially inhibited complement compared with a low dose of pozelimab (a fully human antibody with the combination therapy. targeting the C5 protein) administered subcutaneously The dierent degree of ecacy found for cemdisiran every month, for the treatment of generalised myasthenia monotherapy in generalised myasthenia gravis compared gravis. The cemdisiran monotherapy and combination with that previously seen for cemdisiran monotherapy in groups both met the trial’s prespecified primary and key PNH16,23 might be the most surprising aspect of our secondary endpoints of improvement in the patient- findings. In PNH, cemdisiran monotherapy had little reported outcome of MG-ADL and the physician-reported activity, whereas the combination therapy, tested head-to- outcome of QMG versus placebo by week 24. The head versus ravulizumab in a small exploratory cohort of proportions of patients with MG-ADL and QMG an ongoing phase 3 study (by lowering the C5 load and responses by week 24 were also significantly greater with then also adding a blocking antibody) seemed to have cemdisiran monotherapy and combination therapy than better ecacy than current C5 inhibitors.24 These with placebo. The clinical benefits were rapid, sustained, findings would suggest that PNH requires complete and clinically meaningful, with no waning of ecacy complement inhibition for optimal disease control (as near the end of the respective dosing intervals. Exploratory achieved by the siRNA–antibody combination) while analyses also indicated that occurrence of generalised generalised myasthenia gravis might benefit from myasthenia gravis crisis (including impending crisis), substantial but only partial complement inhibition (as use of rescue therapy, and hospitalisations were lower achieved by the siRNA alone). This could be due to the with cemdisiran monotherapy and combination therapy diering ways in which complement is activated and than with placebo. mediates damage in these two diseases. In PNH, the A unique aspect of this study design allowed erythropoietic lineage is increasingly overtaken by assessment of the contribution of each treatment mutated clones missing endogenous complement component, which revealed that combination therapy regulators normally found on the cell membrane, leading had no additional benefit over cemdisiran monotherapy. to haemolysis; the clinical data suggest that complete As expected, the low dose of pozelimab monotherapy in complement inhibition might be required to prevent this trial had little ecacy.

These ecacy findings degrees of complement inhibition required for ecacy were surprising because cemdisiran monotherapy led to in generalised myasthenia gravis versus PNH remain to a lower proportion of terminal complement inhibition be elucidated. Peripheral CH50 might not fully reflect (~77%) than combination therapy (~99%), as measured complement activity at the neuromuscular junction, by CH50 assay; these relative degrees of complement where disease pathology actually occurs. We also inhibition were consistent with previous cemdisiran measured total C5 (appendix 1 p 27) and modelled free clinical trials.16,35 C5 (pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic modelling; Cemdisiran monotherapy was generally well tolerated, unpublished data), which showed free C5 reduction with no adverse events leading to treatment of ~98% with cemdisiran. Based on the mechanism of discontinuation, and no new safety concerns were action, cemdisiran suppresses the expression and identified. After the double-blind treatment period, there secretion of C5 but does not eliminate the circulating was one possible treatment-related death, as assessed by residual free C5. This residual C5 might still be activated, the investigator, in a patient in the cemdisiran group generating C5a (anaphylatoxin) and C5b. Because C5b is with diabetes and use of immunosuppressive therapies, necessary for the assembly of the C5b–9 membrane which should be noted; the potential risk of infections attack complex, even a small amount of residual free C5 was monitored carefully in patients receiving this (~2%) could be sucient to support approximately 24% treatment. There were no serious infections in the residual complement activity in the CH50 assay.
