Case report: Efgartigimod treatment in two pediatric patients with chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy

This is the first report of efgartigimod use in pediatric patients with CIDP. Efgartigimod was generally well tolerated, and some clinical improvements were observed in this population. However, given the small sample size, these findings should be considered preliminary and require confirmation in larger, prospective studies.

Abstract

This is the first report of efgartigimod use in pediatric patients with CIDP. Efgartigimod was generally well tolerated, and some clinical improvements were observed in this population. However, given the small sample size, these findings should be considered preliminary and require confirmation in larger, prospective studies.
