ABOUT US

OptiMyG is a pioneering, prospective observational study conducted across Europe, designed to fill a critical gap in myasthenia gravis (MG) research. By establishing a harmonized follow-up structure with systematic sample collections and comprehensive clinical data, OptiMyG aims to uncover disease subtype-specific characteristics, identify predictors of severity, and assess treatment responses in individuals with new-onset MG. This multinational collaboration aspires to deepen our understanding of MG and pave the way for more precise, effective management strategies tailored to each patient’s unique disease profile
