The study objective is to see if IV Efgartigimod and Vyjuvek treatment in Recessive Dystrophic Epidermolysis Bullosa (RDEB) and IV Efgartigimod treatment in Epidermolysis Bullosa Acquisita (EBA) improves wound healing and affects the levels of C7 antibody levels in serum.
Fewer wounds, more rapidly healing wounds, and decreased C7 antibodies could improve quality of life.

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| Efgartigimod | Experimental | There is one arm of the study. First, each participant undergoes a 3-month observational period. If the participant has DEB, they will continue their standard of care VYJUVEK as prescribed. After the observational period concludes, the participant enters the treatment period, during which Efgartigimod is administered. DEB participants will continue their standard of care VYJUVEK as prescribed. |

| Name | Type | Description | Arm Group Labels | Other Names |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Efgartigimod | Biological | Dosage: 10mg/kg Frequency: Once a week Duration: 25 weeks |
|
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Reduction in serum C7 antibody levels | The proportion of patients who exhibit reduction in serum C7 antibody levels at week 26 as compared to week 1. | 26 weeks |
| Adverse Events and Effects | Occurrence of adverse events and effects. | 38 weeks |
| The Epidermolysis Bullosa Disease Activity and Scarring Index (EBDASI) improvement | The overall improvement of EB symptoms at week 26 as compared to week 1, measured by percentage change of a participant's EBDASI score (overall total score, total activity score, and total damage score). The EBDASI is scored in the range of 0 - 506, with a lower score corresponding to mild disease and higher score corresponding to more severe disease. | 26 weeks |
