- W2518213089 abstract "Objectives: Over the last four years, INSIGHTS, a quality improvement project, has examined the clinical, laboratory, and electrophysiologic criteria of neuromuscular patients prescribed IVIG across the USBackground: IVIG is used commonly off label for treatment of exacerbations and for maintenance therapy of myasthenia gravis. Due to a lack of positive controlled trials, there is tremendous variability in the types of patients that are prescribed IVIG for myasthenia gravis in clinical practice.Methods: We collected clinical, laboratory, and electrophysiologic data on 585 neuromuscular patients that were prescribed IVIG from across the country. A panel of independent expert neuromuscular neurologists reviewed the information. Positive outcomes were independently determined based on Quality of Life measures, Patient Global Impression of Change, and clinical documentation. Data was entered electronically in the Redcap system at the University of Kansas.Results: We present the data from 89 MG patients who received IVIG. 44 of these patients were naive to IVIG and 68[percnt] of these patients had a positive response. 45 patients had received IVIG previously and 73[percnt] of these patients had a positive outcome. The average dose of IVIG was 1.73 gm/kg/month with a range of 0.4 gm/kg/month to 4gm/kg/month). 59 patients (66[percnt]) were receiving ongoing maintenance therapy while 30 patients (34[percnt]) received treatment only for an exacerbation. Positive response was most strongly associated with the independent reviewers’ determination that the patient was appropriate for IVIG (92[percnt] vs 50[percnt], p=.06) based on progressive generalized weakness. Patient’s age, sex, distribution of weakness, disease time course, and antibody status had no significant association with response.Conclusions: Overall response rates of patients with MG to IVIG was 70[percnt]. This suggests that larger controlled trials of IVIG in MG should be performed with the potential to receive an indication for therapy both for exacerbations and maintenance.
