Experimental: RO7234292 (RG6042) Q8W
Participants who received open-label RO7234292 Q4W in a preceding study or who received RO7234292 Q4W in this study may be randomly allocated to receive RO7234292 Q8W. Participants who previously received open-label of RO7234292 Q8W in a preceding study or are currently receiving RO7234292 Q8W in this study will receive RO7234292 Q8W. Participants who previously received placebo, or did not previously receive treatment with RO7234292 or received short-term treatment with a treatment-free follow-up period may be randomly allocated to receive RO7234292 Q8W. Participants who previously received blinded placebo Q8W may receive RO7234292 Q8W. Participants who received blinded RO7234292 Q8W will receive open-label RO7234929 Q8W. Participants who received blinded placebo Q8W may receive RO7234292 Q8W. Participants who received blinded RO7234292 Q4W or blinded placebo Q4W may be randomly allocated to receive open-label of RO7234292 Q8W.

Experimental: RO7234292 (RG6042) Q16W
Participants who previously received open-label RO7234292 Q4W in a preceding study or who received RO7234292 Q4W in this study may be randomly allocated to receive RO7234292 Q16W. Participants who previously received placebo in a preceding study or did not previously receive treatment with RO7234292 or received short-term treatment with a treatment-free follow-up period may be randomly allocated to receive RO7234292 Q16W. Participants who previously received blinded placebo Q8W will receive RO7234292 Q8W. Participants who previously received blinded RO7234292 Q16W will receive open-label RO7234292 Q16W. Participants who received blinded RO7234292 Q4W or blinded placebo Q4W may be randomly allocated to receive open-label of RO7234292 Q16W. Participants who previously received open-label RO7234292 Q16W will receive open-label RO7234292 Q16W.

- Percentage of Participants with Adverse Events [ Time Frame: Up to Approximately 6 Years ]
- Change From Baseline in Behavioral Findings, as Assessed by the Columbia-Suicide [ Time Frame: Baseline, Every 8 Weeks or Every 16 Weeks, and End of Treatment (up to approximately 6 years) ]
The Columbia-Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS) is a structured tool to assess suicidal ideation and behavior.
Four constructs are measured: severity of ideation, intensity of ideation, behavior, and lethality of actual suicide attempts. Binary (yes/no) data are collected for 10 categories, and composite endpoints based on the categories are followed over time to monitor patient safety.
- Change From Baseline in Cognition, using Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) [ Time Frame: Baseline, Every 16 Weeks, End of Treatment (up to approximately 6 years) ]MoCA contains a series of basic assessments, including attention and visuospatial tasks. The total score ranges from 0-30, where lower scores indicate greater impairment.

- For men: agreement to remain abstinent or use a condom, and agreement to refrain from donating sperm
- Patients who were screened and eligible for the placebo-controlled Phase III Study BN40423 but could not be randomized prior to the close of Study BN40423 enrollment due to challenges relating to the COVID-19 pandemic
Inclusion criteria of patients who were screened and eligible for the placebo-controlled Phase III Study BN40423 but could not be randomized prior to the close of Study BN40423 enrollment due to challenges relating to the COVID-19 pandemic:
- Manifest HD diagnosis, defined as a DCL score of 4
- Independence Scale (IS) score >=70

- Clinical assessment to ensure individual has intact functional independence at baseline to maintain self-care and core activities of daily living (ADLs).
Exclusion Criteria:
- Withdrawal of consent from the preceding study
- Permanent discontinuation of RO7234292 (RG6042) for any drug-related safety concern during the preceding study or meeting of any study treatment discontinuation criteria specified in the preceding study at the time of enrollment into this study
- An ongoing, unresolved, clinically significant medical problem that in the judgment of the investigator would make it unsafe for the patient to participate in this study
- Antiplatelet or anticoagulant therapy within 14 days prior to inclusion or anticipated use during the study, including, but not limited to, aspirin, clopidogrel, dipyridamole, warfarin, dabigatran, rivaroxaban, and apixaban
- History of bleeding diathesis or coagulopathy
- Platelet count less than the lower limit of normal
- Concurrent participation in any therapeutic clinical trial

- Pregnant or breastfeeding, or intending to become pregnant during the study or within 5 months after the final dose of study drug
Exclusion criteria of patients who were screened and eligible for the placebo-controlled Phase III Study BN40423 but could not be randomized prior to the close of Study BN40423 enrollment due to challenges relation to the COVID-19 pandemic:
- Any serious medical condition or clinically significant laboratory, or vital sign abnormality or claustrophobia at screening that, in the investigator's judgment, precludes the patient's safe participation in and completion of the study
- Pregnant or breastfeeding, or intending to become pregnant during the study or within 5 months after the final dose of study drug
