Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Ravulizumab
During the Primary Treatment Period, participants will receive a weight-based loading dose of ravulizumab on Day 1 followed by weight-based maintenance dose of ravulizumab on Day 15 and once every 8 weeks (q8w) thereafter for a total of 26 weeks. On Day 183, all participants will enter a 32-week Extension Treatment Period and receive ravulizumab. Beginning on Day 183, participants will receive a maintenance dose of ravulizumab q8w for an additional 32 weeks.
Ravulizumab will be administered by intravenous (IV) infusion.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Percentage Change in Lactate Dehydrogenase (LDH) From Baseline to Day 183 (Week 26)
Time Frame: Baseline, Day 183 (Week 26)
LDH is an indicator of intravascular hemolysis that occurs in participants with paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria. A decrease in LDH indicated reduction (improvement) in hemolysis. Baseline was defined as the average of all available on-study assessments prior to the first dose of study drug. The percent change in LDH was analyzed using a mixed-effect model for repeated measures (MMRM) with the fixed categorical effect of visit, fixed continuous effect of the LDH baseline value as covariates, and participant as random effect.
Baseline, Day 183 (Week 26)

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Percentage of Participants Achieving LDH <1.5 * Upper Limit of Normal (ULN) at Day 183 (Week 26)
Time Frame: Day 183 (Week 26)
LDH is an indicator of intravascular hemolysis that occurs in participants with paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria. A decrease in LDH indicated reduction (improvement) in hemolysis. Baseline was defined as the average of all available on-study assessments prior to the first dose of study drug.
Day 183 (Week 26)
Percentage of Participants Achieving Transfusion Avoidance Through Day 183 (Week 26)
Time Frame: Day 183 (Week 26)
Transfusion avoidance was defined as the percentage of participants who remained transfusion free and did not require a transfusion per protocol-specified guidelines (hemoglobin value of ≤9 grams (g)/deciliter (dL) with signs or symptoms of sufficient severity to warrant a transfusion, or a hemoglobin value of ≤7 g/dL regardless of presence of clinical signs or symptoms) through Day 183.
Day 183 (Week 26)
Percentage of Participants Experiencing Breakthrough Hemolysis Through Day 183 (Week 26)
Time Frame: Day 183 (Week 26)
Breakthrough hemolysis was defined as at least one new or worsening symptom or sign of intravascular hemolysis (fatigue, hemoglobinuria, abdominal pain, dyspnea, anemia [hemoglobin <10 g/dL], major adverse vascular event [including thrombosis], dysphagia, or erectile dysfunction) in the presence of elevated LDH ≥2 times the ULN.
Day 183 (Week 26)
Change in Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy-Fatigue Scale (FACIT-Fatigue) Score From Baseline to Day 183 (Week 26)
Time Frame: Baseline, Day 183 (Week 26)
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. Participants scored each item on a 5-point scale: 0 (Not at all) to 4 (Very much). Total scores range from 0 to 52, with a higher score indicating better quality of life. Analysis was using a mixed-effect model for repeated measures (MMRM) with the fixed categorical effect of visit, fixed continuous effect of the baseline value of FACIT-Fatigue score as covariates, and participant as random effect.
Baseline, Day 183 (Week 26)
Change in Hemoglobin (Hgb) From Baseline to Day 183 (Week 26)
Time Frame: Baseline, Day 183 (Week 26)
Analysis was performed using MMRM with the fixed categorical effect of visit, fixed continuous effect of the Hgb baseline value as covariates, and participant as random effect.
Baseline, Day 183 (Week 26)
