Retrospective analysis of safety and outcomes of rituximab for myasthenia gravis in patients ≥65 years old.

At 12 mo following initiation of rituximab for MG, patients ≥65 y old experienced similarly high rates of improvement in their myasthenic symptoms as younger patients, without an increased risk of experiencing SAEs. Rituximab should be considered in the treatment paradigm in older patients and in non-refractory MG patients of any age.
