VYVGART Hytrulo is injected in treatment cycles with a personalized break between cycles

Each treatment cycle is 4 injections, 1 given each week (4 injections per cycle). After each cycle, you'll have a personalized break—that is, your time off between receiving treatment cycles. The safety of starting the next treatment cycle sooner than 4 weeks from the last injection of the previous treatment cycle has not been established.
