A Study of Efgartigimod PH20 SC Given by Prefilled Syringe in Adults With Thyroid Eye Disease
Stopped: The pre-defined interim analysis concluded that continuing the trials is unlikely to demonstrate the intended efficacy. This decision is not related to safety concerns, and the safety profile of efgartigimod remains unchanged.

Plain-language summary
This study aims to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), and immunogenicity of efgartigimod PH20 SC in participants with active, moderate-to-severe TED, compared with placebo PH20 SC.
After the screening period, eligible participants will be randomized in a 2:1 ratio to receive efgartigimod PH20 SC or placebo PH20 SC, respectively during the double-blinded treatment period (DBTP). At the end of the DBTP, participants may enter a follow-up observational period while off study drug. Some participants may also enter the open-label treatment period with efgartigimod PH20 SC. The study duration varies from approximately 60 to 110 weeks.
An alternative list of clinical sites open for recruitment could be found in the other UplighTED study record (https://www.clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT06307626).
This study was terminated early on 15 December 2025 as the pre-defined interim analysis concluded that continuing the trials is unlikely to demonstrate the intended efficacy. This decision is not related to safety concerns, and the safety profile of efgartigimod remains unchanged. End-of-study and Safety-Follow-Up visits are ongoing for the participants of this trial.

AI-rewrites the medical criteria so a patient or caregiver can understand them. Always confirm with the trial site.
Inclusion Criteria:
* The participant is at least 18 years of age
* The participant is capable of providing signed informed consent and following with protocol requirements
* The investigator determines active, moderate-to-severe thyroid eye disease (TED) associated with autoimmune thyroid conditions (Graves' disease or Hashimoto's thyroiditis) for the most severely affected eye
* The participant has first onset of active TED symptoms within 12 months before screening
* The participant must have normal thyroid function with the baseline disease under control or have mild hypo or hyperthyroidism at screening. Every effort should be made to correct the mild hypo or hyperthyroidism promptly and to maintain the normal thyroid function for the full duration of the study
* The participant agrees to use birth control consistent with local regulations and the people of child-bearing potential must have a negative blood pregnancy test at screening and a negative urine pregnancy test before receiving the study drug
Exclusion Criteria:
* Optic neuropathy (damage to optic nerve), defined as new visual field defect (blind spot), relative afferent pupillary defect (pupils respond differently to light), or color defect secondary to optic nerve involvement within the 6 months before screening
* Corneal decompensation (swelling of the cornea) unresponsive to medical management
* Previous orbital irradiation or surgery for TED
* Use of some medications before screening (more information is …
Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
