About this study
Current dosing practices for immunoglobulin G (IgG) may be inadequate in extreme body weight. The current study will evaluate the influence of body composition on intravenous and subcutaneous administration of immunoglobulin G in patients.
Compensation is read from the study's own description and may be missing — always confirm with the study team.
