VYVGART reduces
the main cause
of gMG symptoms

FDA-approved for adults with any gMG antibody subtype

Triple
seronegative Anti-AChR
antibody positive Anti-LRP4
antibody positive Anti-MuSK
antibody positive

AChR=acetylcholine receptor; LRP4=low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 4; MuSK=muscle-specific tyrosine kinase. Triple seronegative means a person does not show anti-AChR, anti-LRP4, or anti-MuSK antibodies when tested.

VYVGART works

Take an adventure through the body to see what causes gMG and how VYVGART can help.

VYVGART Hytrulo for subcutaneous injection works in a similar way to VYVGART for IV infusion once in your body

VYVGART Hytrulo for subcutaneous injection contains 2 active ingredients: efgartigimod alfa, which is the same active ingredient in VYVGART for IV infusion, and hyaluronidase (human recombinant). Hyaluronidase helps to increase the distribution and absorption of ingredients into the body.

Many “characters” work together to help your body move.

Learn about those that play an important role in the VYVGART treatment journey.

Acetylcholine.

ACh

Helps carry messages from the brain to different parts of the body, including muscles.

ACh=acetylcholine.

Acetylcholine receptor.

AChR

Receives messages from nerves that tell muscles what to do. 

AChR=acetylcholine receptor.

Neonatal Fc receptor.

FcRn

A receptor (yellow) that attaches to IgG antibodies (green) and helps them stay in the body longer.

FcRn=neonatal Fc receptor; IgG=immunoglobulin G.

Harmful IgG antibodies

Get in the way of messages being sent from the nerves to your muscles, telling them what to do.

IgG=immunoglobulin G.

Hyaluronidase.

Hyaluronidase

Helps to increase the distribution and absorption of ingredients into the body.

Immunoglobulin G.

IgG

A “Y” shaped protein made by the immune system. Plays a vital role in helping protect your body from infection and disease.

IgG=immunoglobulin G.

Low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 4.

LRP4

Helps messages get from the nerves to the muscles. LRP4 attaches to MuSK to help “switch it on.”

LRP4=low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 4; MuSK=muscle-specific tyrosine kinase.

Muscle-specific tyrosine kinase.

MuSK

Once on, MuSK helps group together AChR, so the muscle can receive ACh from the nerves.

ACh=acetylcholine; AChR=acetylcholine receptor; MuSK=muscle-specific tyrosine kinase.

VYVGART.

VYVGART

Attaches to FcRn receptors so some IgG antibodies can’t attach. With fewer harmful IgG antibodies, gMG symptoms are reduced.

FcRn=neonatal Fc receptor.

How VYVGART works in the body

Harmful IgG antibodies cause gMG symptoms. VYVGART helps lower the amount of harmful IgG antibodies. With fewer harmful IgG antibodies, symptoms can be reduced.
