What the study is about
The main purpose of this study is to look at the effect (efficacy) and safety of efgartigimod IV in participants with primary immune thrombocytopenia (ITP). After an up to 2 weeks screening period, eligible participants will be randomized in a 2:1 ratio to receive either efgartigimod IV or placebo IV, respectively during the double-blinded treatment period (DBTP). At the end of the treatment period (up to 24 weeks), all participants will receive efgartigimod IV during the first 52-week open-label treatment period (OLTP1). At the end of the first OLTP1, participants may begin a second 52-week OLTP2. After the OLTP2, the participants will enter a follow-up period (approximately 8 weeks) while off study drug. The participants will be in the study for up to 138 weeks.
