Arm | Intervention/treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: Ravulizumab
In Stage 1, all participants will receive open-label ravulizumab plus Best Supportive Care (BSC). In Stage 2, participants will receive blinded ravulizumab plus Best Supportive Care (BSC). |
Biological: Ravulizumab
Weight-based doses of ravulizumab will be administered intravenously as loading dose regimen followed by maintenance dosing every 8 weeks.
Other Name: Ultomiris, ALXN1210 Other: Best supportive care Participants will receive medications, therapies, and interventions per standard hospital treatment protocols (unless specifically prohibited by the protocol). |
Placebo Comparator: Placebo
In Stage 2, participants randomized to the placebo arm will receive matching placebo plus BSC.

- Platelet Response [ Time Frame: 26 weeks (treatment period) and 52 weeks (includes treatment period and off-treatment follow-up period) ]Concentration (mm^3) of platelets compared to baseline without transfusion support prior to the 7 days.
- Hematologic Response [ Time Frame: 26 weeks (treatment period) and 52 weeks (includes treatment period and off-treatment follow-up period) ]
Hematologic Response as assessed by blood tests to measure lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and platelet count.
(1) If baseline platelet count ≤ 50000/mm3, the following criteria must be met:
- Absolute platelet count > 50,000/mm3 without platelet transfusion support during the prior 7 days [or]
If baseline platelet count > 50,000/mm3, the following criteria must be met:
- ≥ 50% increase in platelet count compared to baseline value without platelet transfusion support during the prior 7 days
2) Normalization of LDH and absence of schistocytes
