What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Time Frame
Incidence of Treatment-emergent Adverse Events
Time Frame: From time of consent to a maximum of 2.5 years of study treatment
From time of consent to a maximum of 2.5 years of study treatment

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Hemolysis as Measured by Change From Baseline in LDH Area Under the Curve
Time Frame: From time of first infusion through 24 months of study treatment
From time of first infusion through 24 months of study treatment
Quality of Life as Measured by FACIT-Fatigue Scale Change From Baseline
Time Frame: From time of first infusion through 24 months of study treatment
The FACIT-Fatigue scale is a collection of quality of life questionnaires pertaining to the management of fatigue symptoms due to a chronic illness. The FACIT-Fatigue is a 13-item questionnaire that assesses self-reported fatigue and its impact upon daily activities and function over the preceding 7 days. Patients score each item on a 5-point scale: 0 (Not at all) to 4 (Very much). Total scores range from 0 to 52, with higher score indicating better quality of life.
From time of first infusion through 24 months of study treatment
Incidence of Thrombosis After Eculizumab Infusion
Time Frame: From time of first ever dose through last dose (up to 24 months of study treatment)
Thrombosis was defined as occurrence of major adverse vascular events
From time of first ever dose through last dose (up to 24 months of study treatment)
