The Commission's approval of the neuromuscular disorder treatment is founded on a positive recommendation from the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use and encouraging trial results, the company said.

The Adhere trial showed 66.5% of the 322 participants demonstrated evidence of clinical improvement and reached its primary endpoint of a 61% drop in risk of relapse, the company said.

The regulatory approval is the second for Vyvgart in Europe, it added.

Shares of the company were up 1.2% in recent trading.
