Experimental
Active Comparator
Ravulizumab
Eculizumab
On Day 1, participants received weight-based doses of ravulizumab ranging from 2400 to 3000 milligrams (mg). Thereafter, weight-based doses of ravulizumab ranging from 3000 to 3600 mg were administered on Days 15, 71, and 127. After completion of the 26-week Primary Evaluation Period, participants had the opportunity to enter the Extension Period, wherein participants will receive weight-based doses of ravulizumab for up to 3 years.
Participants received 900 mg of eculizumab every 2 weeks (q2w) for 26 weeks. After completion of the 26-week Primary Evaluation Period, participants had the opportunity to enter the Extension Period, wherein participants will receive weight-based doses of ravulizumab for up to 3 years.
