Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Frequency of Adverse Events (AEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs),
Frequency tables will be presented by treatment group for all AEs and SAEs by System Organ Class (SOC) and Preferred Term (PT). Frequency tables will also be produced by treatment group for AEs leading to COUR Pharmaceuticals Development Company, Inc. Confidential CNP-106-5.001 Protocol; IND 28774 Page 53 of 65 discontinuation from IP and study, by severity, and by causality. No formal statistical testing will be done.
Through study day 180
Secondary Outcomes (2)
Change from baseline in antigen specific CD4+ and CD8+ T cell levels in PBMC at Day 60, 90, and 180.
Through study day 180
Change from baseline in activated antigen specific CD4+ and CD8+ T cell levels in PBMC at Day 60, 90, and 180.

PLACEBO COMPARATORCNP-106 Placebo
Interventions
CNP-106 is comprised of an antigenic AChR Peptide Pool (\~1 μg of each AChRα and AChRε peptide comprising AChR Peptide Pool Drug Substance per mg particles) dispersed within a negatively charged (-30 to -60 mV) polymer matrix of PLGA (Poly (DL-lactide-co-glycolide, 50:50 acid-end group)) particles (400-800 nm in size).
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Subjects who are willing and able to provide Institutional Review Board (IRB) approved written informed consent and privacy language as per national regulations.
- Men and non-pregnant women, ages 18-75 years inclusive.
- Female subjects of childbearing potential must agree not to become pregnant during the clinical study, have a negative pregnancy test at the Screening Visit, and agree to one of the following:
- Use two highly effective forms of birth control starting at initial screening and continuing throughout the study duration.
- Practice abstinence starting at initial screening and continuing throughout the study duration.
- Subjects with a Myasthenia Gravis Foundation of America Clinical Classification Class III-IV (Cohort 1). Upon successful DMC review and approval of preliminary safety data obtained from Cohort 1 through Day 15, Cohort 2 will enroll subjects with MGFA Clinical Classification Class II-IV.
- Subjects positive for anti-AChR antibodies by radioimmunoassay (RIA) (Mayo Clinic).
- , Subjects with MG-ADL Score ≥ 6 at Screening and Baseline Visit with ≥ 50% of the score derived from non-ocular symptoms.
- \. Subjects with QMG Score ≥ 11 at Screening and Baseline Visit. 8. For subjects on any medication used to treat the symptoms of MG (ex. Corticosteroids, pyridostigmine), subjects must be on a stable dose for a minimum of 90 days prior to enrollment and must agree not to increase their dose through clinical study duration unless reviewed and approved by the medical monitor and the site investigator.
- \. Female subjects who agree to not breastfeed starting at initial screening and throughout the study duration.
- \. Female subjects who agree to not donate ova starting at initial screening and throughout the study duration.
- \. Male subjects with a spouse or partner of childbearing potential, who themselves and their spouse or partner agree to practice an effective form of birth control as discussed with the study doctor or study staff starting at Screening and throughout the study duration.
You may not qualify if:
- Subjects with a Myasthenia Gravis Foundation of America Clinical Classification Class I or V.
- Subjects with a history of cerebrovascular accident in the past 12 months.
- Subjects with MG-ADL Score \< 6 at Screen or Subjects with MG-ADL Score ≥ 6 at Screen with ˂ 50% of the score derived from non-ocular symptoms.
- Subjects with QMG Score \< 11 at Screen.
- Subjects who have used the following medications:
- Tacrolimus within 6 months prior to the first dosing;
- Methotrexate within 5 half-lives or 90 days after last dose (whichever is longer);
- Anti-FcRn inhibitors (ex. Efgartigimod) within 5 half-lives or 90 days after last dose (whichever is longer);
- C5 complement inhibitor (ex. Eculizumab) within 5 half-lives or 90 days after last dose (whichever is longer);
- Anti-CD20 (ex. Rituximab) within 5 half-lives for 90 days after last dose (whichever is longer);
- Subjects who have used immunoglobulins given SC or IV (SCIg or IVIg) or plasmapheresis/plasma exchange (PE) within 4 weeks before Screening.
- Subjects who have had thymectomy or any other thymic surgery performed within 12 months prior to Screening.
- Subjects with untreated thymic malignancy, carcinoma, or thymoma.
- Subjects with a history of tuberculosis or positive PPD skin test.
- Subjects who have received administration of any live vaccine (other than intranasal Influenza) within 28 days or subunit vaccine within 14 days prior to Screening or are planning to receive any vaccination throughout the study duration.
