Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.
| List | Outcome | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Proportion Of Participants With Normalization Of Lactate Dehydrogenase (LDH) Levels | Day 29 through Day 183 | LDH is an indicator of intravascular hemolysis that occurs in participants with paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH). A decrease in LDH from above the upper limit of normal (ULN) to below the ULN indicates reduction (improvement) in hemolysis. Normalization of LDH levels (LDH-N) was LDH levels less than or equal to 1 x ULN, from Day 29 through Day 183. The ULN for LDH is 246 U/L. |
| Primary | Percentage Of Participants Who Achieved Transfusion Avoidance (TA) | Baseline through Day 183 | Transfusion avoidance was defined as the percentage of participants who remained transfusion free and did not require a transfusion per protocol-specified guidelines through Day 183. |
| Secondary | Percentage Of Participants With Breakthrough Hemolysis (BTH) | Baseline through Day 183 | Breakthrough hemolysis was defined as at least 1 new or worsening symptom or sign of intravascular hemolysis (fatigue, hemoglobinuria, abdominal pain, shortness of breath \[dyspnea\], anemia \[hemoglobin \<10 gram/deciliter (g/dL)\], major adverse vascular event \[MAVE, including thrombosis\], dysphagia, or erectile dysfunction) in the presence of elevated LDH ≥2 × ULN, after prior LDH reduction to \<1.5 × ULN on therapy. |
| Secondary | Percent Change From Baseline In LDH Levels | Baseline, Day 183 | Baseline is defined as the average of all available assessments of LDH levels prior to first study drug dose. Estimates are based on Mixed Model for Repeated Measures (MMRM) that includes treatment group, history of transfusion (as a categorical variable based on the stratification factor levels) and baseline LDH level (as a continuous variable), study visit and study visit by treatment group interaction. An unstructured covariance structure was used. |
| Secondary | Change From Baseline In Quality Of Life As Assessed By The Functional Assessment Of Chronic Illness Therapy (FACIT)-Fatigue | Baseline, Day 183 | FACIT-Fatigue score ranges from 0 to 52, with a higher score indicating less fatigue. Baseline is defined as the last non-missing value prior to first dose of study drug. Estimates are based on MMRM that includes treatment group, the observed stratification randomization indicators (history of transfusion and LDH) and baseline FACIT-Fatigue level, study visit, and study visit by treatment group interaction. An unstructured covariance structure was used. |
| Secondary | Percentage Of Participants With Stabilized Hemoglobin Levels | Baseline through Day 183 | Stabilized hemoglobin was defined as avoidance of a ≥2 g/dL decrease in hemoglobin level from baseline in the absence of transfusion through Day 183. |
