The main purpose of this study is to look at how efgartigimod affects thyroid function in adults with Graves' Disease (GD). The study will also check whether efgartigimod is safe and well tolerated. It will look at how efgartigimod is distributed and eliminated in the body, how it changes antibody levels, and how the immune system responds to it. The study consists of a part A double-blinded treatment period, a part B treatment/observation period and a part C open-label treatment/observation period. During the part A and part B treatment periods, participants will receive efgartigimod PH20 SC via Prefilled Syringe (PFS) or placebo. During the part C open-label treatment period, participants will receive efgartigimod PH20 SC PFS. Participation in the different parts of the study will depend on the participant's response to treatment. The total study duration for participants ranges from 63 to 135 weeks, depending on the response to treatment. More information can be found here: https://clinicaltrials.argenx.com/vitalithy
