Experimental
Ravulizumab 		During the Primary Treatment Period, all participants will receive open-label ravulizumab via intravenous (IV) infusion starting on Day 1. The end of the Primary Treatment Period will be triggered when the last enrolled participant completes between 26 and 50 weeks in the study (depending on the number of adjudicated On-Trial Relapse observed). After completion of the Primary Treatment Period, all participants will have the opportunity to continue receiving ravulizumab in the Long-Term Extension Period of the study. For each participant, the Long-Term Extension Period continues for up to 2 years, or until ravulizumab is approved and/or available (in accordance with country-specific regulations), whichever occurs first.
  • Biological: Ravulizumab
    Participants will receive a weight-based loading dose of ravulizumab via IV infusion on Day 1, followed by weight-based maintenance doses on Day 15, then once every 8 weeks until end of the Long-Term Extension Period.
