Title: Multicenter, Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of IGIV-Chromatography (IGIV-C), 10% Treatment in Subjects With Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathy
Brief Summary: The intent of this study is to demonstrate the efficacy and safety of Immune Globulin Intravenous (Human), 10% Caprylate/Chromatography Purified (IGIV-C) in newly or previously diagnosed CIDP subjects. Eight courses of treatment with either placebo or IGIV-C will occur every 3 weeks. Neurological function will be measured by Inflammatory Neuropathy Cause and Treatment (INCAT) scores. Patients who deteriorate or show no improvement between day 16 and month 6 will receive the alternate study drug for an additional 6 months.

* Fulfillment of INCAT neurophysiological criteria for focal demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy
* Overall INCAT score between 2-9 and significant disability in upper or lower limb function in at least 2 limbs. (An INCAT score of 2 must be exclusively from leg disability to qualify.)
