Intervention(s)

Trade Name: IGVENA*FL 200ML 10G+SET
Pharmaceutical Form: Concentrate for solution for infusion
INN or Proposed INN: Immunoglobulins, normal human, for intravascular adm.
Concentration unit: % percent
Concentration number: .5-
Pharmaceutical form of the placebo: Concentrate for solution for infusion
Route of administration of the placebo: Intravenous use

Primary Outcome(s)
Primary end point(s): Difference in the percentage of patients suspending one of the therapies during 6 months of treatment after undesiderable effects or treatment inefficacy (lack of response or worsening) or both.
Secondary Objective: The second objective is to evaluate if IVIg treatment is more efficacious versus high doses intravenous metilprednisolone (IVMP)in relapse preventing after 6 months suspension of therapy.
Main Objective: The primary study objective is to determine if IVIg treatment is better tolerate and/or more efficacious versus high doses intravenous metilprednisolone (MPIV) in CIDP induction (15 days) and long term improvement maintenance (6 months). This objective will be evaluated comparing the percentage of patients suspending IVIg and of patients suspending MPIV during the 6 months of treatment after undesiderable effects or treatment inefficacy (lack of response or worsening).
