Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of subcutaneous administration of immunoglobulin compared to intravenous treatment for multifocal motor neuropathy

NB ONLY RECRUITING FROM DENMARK
Detailed Description: Introduction Intravenous immunoglobulin IVIG treatment is the only established treatment modality in Multifocal Motor Neuropathy MMN In order to maintain neuromuscular performance patients require lifelong treatment Hospital-based treatments have high cost and inconveniences to patients particularly in chronic disorders Immunoglobulin preparations are now available for subcutaneous use as IgG replacement therapy The safety and efficacy of subcutaneous infusion is reported to be comparable to iv preparations and has been applied successfully in other autoimmune disorders However patients with MMN have not previously been treated with subcutaneous immunoglobulin

Hypothesis

Subcutaneous immunoglobulin treatment is efficacious and safe with less patient inconvenience

Primary endpoint

Isokinetic muscle strength at the end of treatment A vs B subcutaneous vs iv

Secondary endpoint

Medical research council score MRC-score 9-hole peg test 10m walking Nerve conduction parameters SF-36
