Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Ravulizumab

Participants will receive eculizumab during the 3-month Screening Period. Participants will then switch over to and receive weight-based doses of ravulizumab for the duration of the study Treatment Period (351 days).

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Eculizumab

Intervention Type BIOLOGICAL

Participants must have been prescribed and be receiving a stable dose of eculizumab 1200 milligrams (mg) every 2 weeks (q2w) for at least 3 months prior to the Screening Period. During the Screening Period, participants will continue to receive eculizumab 1200 mg q2w.

Ravulizumab

Intervention Type BIOLOGICAL

During the Treatment Period, participants will receive a loading dose of ravulizumab on Day 1, followed by maintenance doses on Day 15 and every 8 weeks, administered by intravenous infusion. Ravulizumab loading and maintenance doses will be based on participants' body weight per approved dose regimen.

3. LDH ≤ 2 x upper limit of normal (ULN) according to central laboratory, at Screening.
4. To reduce the risk of meningococcal infection (Neisseria meningitidis), all participants must be vaccinated against meningococcal infections within 3 years prior to initiating study drug.
5. Body weight ≥ 40 kilograms.

Exclusion Criteria

* Iron supplements or folic acid for 4 weeks
6. Live vaccine(s) within 1 month prior to Screening or plans to receive such vaccines during the study.
7. More than 1 LDH value \> 2 × ULN within the 6 months prior to Day 1.
8. Platelet count \< 30,000/cubic millimeter (30 × 10\^9/Liter \[L\]) at Screening.
9. Absolute neutrophil count \< 500/microliter (0.5 × 10\^9/L) at Screening.
