Summary
This trial will look at how body weight affects the effectiveness of IgG when given through IV or injection.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 with Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyradiculoneuropathy (CIDP). They must meet specific diagnostic criteria and have a dosage conversion rate that fits the study's range. People with active cancer, immune or autoimmune diseases, diabetes, myasthenia gravis, or significant liver or kidney issues cannot participate.
What is being tested?
The study compares two ways of giving immunoglobulin G (IgG) to CIDP patients: through the veins (IVIG) and under the skin (SCIG). It aims to see how body composition affects these methods in people with different body weights.
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include reactions at the injection site like redness and swelling, headaches, fever, nausea, fatigue. Rarely there can be more serious reactions such as blood clots or kidney problems.
