A Study to Assess the Effect of Empasiprubart on Nerve Morphology by Ultrasound in Adults With Multifocal Motor Neuropathy
60 participantsStarted 2026-06-30
Plain-language summary
The main purpose of the study is to evaluate empasiprubart use in adults living with Multifocal Motor Neuropathy (MMN). The researchers will evaluate the effect of empasiprubart on the thickness of the nerves, muscle strength, movement, and on the potential improvement of grip strength of the participants in handling objects.
The study consists of an open-label treatment period where all participants will receive empasiprubart intravenously (IV). After the last dose of empasiprubart participants will enter a safety follow-up period for up to 15 months.
The total study duration for each participant will be approximately 29 months.

AI-rewrites the medical criteria so a patient or caregiver can understand them. Always confirm with the trial site.
Inclusion Criteria:
* Is at least 18 years old
* Diagnosed with MMN
* Has an MMN-RODS centile score of ≤90
* Has confirmed nerve thickening in at least 1 nerve per ultrasound measurement
Exclusion Criteria:
* Besides the indication under study, known autoimmune disease or any medical condition that, in the investigator's opinion, would interfere with an accurate assessment of clinical symptoms of MMN or puts the participant at undue risk.
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.
