FDA Approves Amgen's Uplizna for Generalized Myasthenia Gravis in Adults

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved Amgen Inc.'s UPLIZNA® (inebilizumab-cdon) for the treatment of generalized myasthenia gravis (gMG) in adults who are anti-acetylcholine receptor (AChR) and anti-muscle specific tyrosine kinase (MuSK) antibody positive. This marks the first and only CD19-targeted B cell therapy approved for this patient group, offering a new treatment option with twice-yearly dosing after two initial loading doses. The approval expands UPLIZNA's indications, which already include neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) and Immunoglobulin G4-related disease (IgG4-RD).
