Argenx is conducting a clinical study titled ‘A Study to Assess the Efficacy and Safety of Efgartigimod PH20 SC in Adults With Systemic Sclerosis.’ The primary goal is to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of efgartigimod PH20 SC compared to a placebo in treating systemic sclerosis, a chronic autoimmune disease. This study is significant as it could offer a new therapeutic option for patients with this challenging condition.
The study tests efgartigimod PH20 SC, a combination product administered subcutaneously via a prefilled syringe. The treatment aims to improve symptoms and quality of life for patients with systemic sclerosis.
This is a randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled Phase 2 study. Participants are randomly assigned to receive either the experimental treatment or a placebo in a 2:1 ratio. The study employs a parallel intervention model with quadruple masking to ensure unbiased results. The primary purpose is treatment-focused.
The study began on October 22, 2024, with a primary completion date yet to be announced. The most recent update was on August 22, 2025. These dates are crucial for tracking the progress and potential availability of results.
The outcome of this study could significantly impact Argenx’s stock performance and investor sentiment, as successful results may enhance the company’s market position in the autoimmune treatment sector. This development is particularly relevant given the competitive landscape of pharmaceutical companies targeting similar conditions.
The study is currently ongoing, with further details available on the ClinicalTrials portal.
