Yesterday we attended the R&D spotlight session for Autoimmune Myositis in European Pharmaceuticals &
Boston. Here, Argenx disclosed further information regarding the subgroup Biotechnology
patient population in the Phase II trial, where IMNM patients constituted c.60% of Richard Vosser AC
patients and demonstrated a statistically significant result in this subgroup (44-20) 7742-6652
alone, and DM patients (c.30% of patients) also showed a clear signal of richard.vosser@jpmorgan.com

and DM separately and file on this basis, and given a limited number of patients J.P. Morgan Securities plc
in PM they now no longer see a registrational path for PM. With yesterday’s session Zain Ebrahim

penetration of the 20k patient population. Furthermore, we continue to see a path Khushi Bihani
forward for Vyvgart in DM, where despite greater heterogeneity in the patients and (91-22) 6157-4103
