Background: The complement C5 inhibitor (C5IT), ravulizumab, is approved in Canada for the treatment of anti-acetylcholine receptor antibody-positive (AChR-Ab+) generalized myasthenia gravis (gMG). Updated effectiveness and safety results from the ongoing MG SPOTLIGHT Registry (NCT04202341) are reported. Methods: MGFA classification and MG-ADL total scores were assessed in patients who received ravulizumab only (ravu-only) or transitioned from eculizumab to ravulizumab (ecu-to-ravu), with data available prior to C5IT initiation (“pre-C5IT”) and ≥1 assessment post-initiation (“post-ravu”). Results: Of 52 patients with 2 post-ravu assessments, average treatment duration was 10.4 months at last assessment (LA). Mean±SD MG-ADL scores improved (pre-C5IT: 7.6±3.6; LA: 3.4±3.3), as did the proportions of patients with minimal symptom expression (MSE, MG-ADL≤1) (pre-C5IT: 1/52 [2%]; LA: 17/52 [33%]) and MGFA classification 0-II (pre-C5IT: 18/45 [40%]; LA: 40/45 [89%]). In the ravu-only subgroup, outcomes improved (pre-C5IT vs LA): MG-ADL, 6.3±3.0 vs 4.0±3.4; MGFA 0-II, 9/14 [64%] vs 12/14 [86%]. The ecu-to-ravu subgroup sustained continued gradual improvement from last eculizumab assessment to LA: MG-ADL, 4.4±4.2 vs 3.0±2.8; MGFA 0-II, 19/21 [90%] vs 20/21 [95%]. Ravulizumab was well tolerated; no meningococcal infections were reported. Conclusions: These results demonstrate the long-term effectiveness and safety of ravulizumab in routine clinical practice in patients with gMG.
