Summary

This trial tested different doses of a drug to treat CIDP in children to see if it was safe and effective.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for children aged 2 to 17 with Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyradiculoneuropathy (CIDP). They must have functional impairment due to CIDP and not have a history of inherited neuropathies, previous immunoglobulin therapy failure, or recent treatments that could affect the study. Participants need parental consent and may require birth control if applicable.
What is being tested?
The trial tests different dosing regimens of PANZYGA, an immunoglobulin therapy, in pediatric patients with CIDP. It aims to determine the safest and most effective dosage by monitoring how well the treatment works and any side effects it causes in these young patients.
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects are not listed here, PANZYGA as an immunoglobulin product can potentially cause allergic reactions, headaches, nausea, fever or chills. More serious but rare risks include blood clots or kidney problems.
