ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryPercentage of Participants With Transfusion Avoidance (TA)Baseline to Week 25
TA is defined as participants who are packed red blood cell (pRBC) transfusion-free and do not require transfusion per protocol-specified guidelines. 95% Confidence Interval (CI) for percentage of participants with TA was calculated using the Wilson's method with continuity correction. Participants who withdrew before Week 25 were deemed to have had a transfusion. Percentages are rounded off to the nearest single decimal.
PrimaryPercentage of Participants With Hemolysis Control Measured by LDHWeek 5 to Week 25
A Generalized Estimating Equation (GEE) was used to estimate the population-average percentage of the participants with hemolysis control (measured by LDH ≤1.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN)) from Week 5 to Week 25 taking account of the intra-patient and inter-patient correlation between LDH control statuses across visits. Percentages are rounded off to the nearest single decimal.
SecondaryPercentage of Participants With Breakthrough Hemolysis (BTH)Baseline to Week 25
BTH was defined as at least one new or worsening symptom or sign of intravascular hemolysis (fatigue, hemoglobinuria, abdominal pain, shortness of breath \[dyspnea\], anemia \[hemoglobin \< 10 grams per deciliter (g/dL)\], major adverse vascular event \[MAVE, including thrombosis\], dysphagia, or erectile dysfunction) in the presence of elevated LDH ≥2xULN after a prior LDH reduction to ≤1.5xULN from the start of study treatment. 95% CI for percentage of participants with BTH was calculated using the Wilson's method with continuity correction. Participants who withdrew before Week 25 were deemed to have experienced a BTH event. Percentages are rounded off to the nearest single decimal.
SecondaryPercentage of Participants With Stabilization of HemoglobinBaseline to Week 25
Stabilized hemoglobin is defined as avoidance of a \>= 2 g/dL decrease in hemoglobin level from baseline, in the absence of transfusion. 95% CI for percentage of participants with stabilized hemoglobin was calculated using the Wilson's method with continuity correction. Participants who withdrew before Week 25 were deemed to not have had hemoglobin stabilization. Percentages are rounded off to the nearest single decimal.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in Fatigue Assessed by Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy-Fatigue (FACIT-F) ScaleBaseline to Week 25
Fatigue was assessed using FACIT-F scale. FACIT-F is a self-assessment questionnaire with a 7-day recall period and 13 items evaluating fatigue and its impact on daily life activities. Items are scored on a response scale that ranges from 0 ("not at all") to 4 ("very much so"). Relevant items are reverse scored, and all the items are summed to create a total score range from 0 to 52, with 0 being the worst possible score and 52 being the best possible score. A higher score indicates low fatigue severity. A positive mean change indicates improvement. FACIT-F was assessed in adult participants only.
SecondaryPercentage of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs)Up to 6 years
An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a participant administered a pharmaceutical product, regardless of causal attribution. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding, for example), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a pharmaceutical product, whether or not considered related to the pharmaceutical product. Preexisting conditions which worsen during a study are also considered as adverse events. AEs are reported based on the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE), Version 5.0.
SecondaryPercentage of Participants With Injection-Site Reactions, Infusion-Related Reactions, Hypersensitivity and Infections (Including Meningococcal Meningitis)Up to 6 years
An AE is any unfavorable and unintended sign, symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of an investigational product or other protocol-imposed intervention, regardless of attribution. Injection-site reactions or infusion-related reaction are AEs related to the injection site that occur during or within 24 hours after study drug administration that are judged to be related to the study drug injection.
SecondaryPercentage of Participants With AEs Leading to Study Drug DiscontinuationUp to 6 years
An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a participant administered a pharmaceutical product, regardless of causal attribution. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding, for example), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a pharmaceutical product, whether or not considered related to the pharmaceutical product. Preexisting conditions which worsen during a study are also considered as adverse events. AEs are reported based on the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE), Version 5.0.
