A Double-blind, Randomized, Placebo-controlled Trial to Evaluate the Efficacy of Intravenous Immunoglobulin Therapy in Autoimmune Autonomic Ganglionopathy.
In Brief
A Phase 3 clinical trial evaluating Double blinded IVIg, Double blinded Placebo, and 1 other intervention for Autoimmune Autonomic Ganglionopathy (AAG). Completed, enrolled 6 participants across 6 sites.
Detailed Summary
The purpose of the study is to see if administering intravenous immune globulin (IVIG) (putting immune globulin directly into your blood) helps to improve the symptoms of orthostatic hypotension (sudden fall in blood pressure when a person stands up) and quality of life in men and women who have autoimmune autonomic ganglionopathy (AAG).

Participants will receive study treatment with IVIg, at 2.0 gm/kg over 2-4 consecutive days. A maintenance study treatment IVIg, at 1.0 gm/kg, over 1-2 consecutive days will occur three weeks later. All participants will proceed to the single blind Second Observation Period.
Participants will receive placebo (5% albumin) at 2.0 gm/kg over 2-4 consecutive days. A maintenance treatment with placebo (5% albumin) at 1.0 gm/kg, over 1-2 consecutive days will occur three weeks later. All participants will proceed to the single blind Second Observation Period.
