Other objectives are to assess long-term efficacy, safety, and tolerability of efgartigimod. The study consists of a Part A where participants will be randomized to receive either efgartigimod IV or placebo and a Part B where participants completing part A will receive open-label efgartigimod IV. Participants will be in the study for up to (approximately) 2.5 years.
