Generalization to skeletal, bulbar and axial muscles occurs in 20-40% of cases, with a higher frequency in the first and second years, respectively 46% and 60% of generalizations. This reflects the maturation of the autoimmune response in the early years of the disease, and represents a therapeutic window of opportunity to modify the course of the disease. Generalization is a critical event, putting the patient at risk of admission to an intensive care unit and necessitating the use of long-term immunosuppressants. There is currently no validated strategy for preventing generalization. On the one hand,
