摘要: 重症肌无力(MG)是一种由自身抗体介导的神经肌肉接头传递障碍性疾病,表现为波动性骨骼肌无力,严重影响患者生活质量。传统免疫治疗虽广泛使用,但部分患者仍面临疗效不足、激素依赖及严重不良反应等问题。近年来,靶向治疗的突破为MG管理提供了新方向。其中艾加莫德作为首个新生儿Fc受体(FcRn)拮抗剂,通过降低致病性抗体免疫球蛋白G (IgG)水平,成为治疗乙酰胆碱受体(AChR)抗体阳性的全身型MG (gMG)的重要选择。本文系统综述艾加莫德的作用机制、临床疗效、安全性以及在真实世界中的应用场景,探讨其在MG治疗中的价值,为艾加莫德的临床应用提供基于真实世界证据的决策支持。
Abstract: Myasthenia gravis (MG) is an autoimmune disorder mediated by autoantibodies that impair neuromuscular transmission, resulting in fluctuating muscle weakness and diminished quality of life. Although conventional therapies are widely used, they remain limited by inadequate responses, corticosteroid dependence, and significant adverse effects. Recent advances in targeted therapies have introduced new treatment options. Efgartigimod, the first neonatal Fc receptor (FcRn) antagonist, lowers pathogenic IgG levels and represents an important therapeutic option for acetylcholine receptor (AChR) antibody–positive generalized MG (gMG). This review summarizes the mechanism of action, efficacy, and safety profile of efgartigimod, with particular emphasis on real-world applications. We further evaluate its role in MG management and provide real-world evidence to inform clinical decision-making.
