What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
RavulizumabDrug
Also called ALXN1210
Ravulizumab will be administered by intravenous (IV) infusion.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Ravulizumab | Experimental | During the Primary Treatment Period, participants will receive a weight-based loading dose of ravulizumab on Day 1 followed by weight-based maintenance dose of ravulizumab on Day 15 and once every 8 weeks (q8w) thereafter for a total of 26 weeks. On Day 183, all participants will enter a 32-week Extension Treatment Period and receive ravulizumab. Beginning on Day 183, participants will receive a maintenance dose of ravulizumab q8w for an additional 32 weeks. Receives: Drug: Ravulizumab |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Percentage Change in Lactate Dehydrogenase (LDH) From Baseline to Day 183 (Week 26)
LDH is an indicator of intravascular hemolysis that occurs in participants with paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria. A decrease in LDH indicated reduction (improvement) in hemolysis. Baseline was defined as the average of all available on-study assessments prior to the first dose of study drug. The percent change in LDH was analyzed using a mixed-effect model for repeated measures (MMRM) with the fixed categorical effect of visit, fixed continuous effect of the LDH baseline value as covariates, and participant as random effect.
Measured: Baseline, Day 183 (Week 26)
Secondary outcomes (5)
Percentage of Participants Achieving LDH <1.5 * Upper Limit of Normal (ULN) at Day 183 (Week 26)
LDH is an indicator of intravascular hemolysis that occurs in participants with paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria. A decrease in LDH indicated reduction (improvement) in hemolysis. Baseline was defined as the average of all available on-study assessments prior to the first dose of study drug.
Measured: Day 183 (Week 26)
Percentage of Participants Achieving Transfusion Avoidance Through Day 183 (Week 26)
Transfusion avoidance was defined as the percentage of participants who remained transfusion free and did not require a transfusion per protocol-specified guidelines (hemoglobin value of ≤9 grams (g)/deciliter (dL) with signs or symptoms of sufficient severity to warrant a transfusion, or a hemoglobin value of ≤7 g/dL regardless of presence of clinical signs or symptoms) through Day 183.
Measured: Day 183 (Week 26)
Percentage of Participants Experiencing Breakthrough Hemolysis Through Day 183 (Week 26)
Breakthrough hemolysis was defined as at least one new or worsening symptom or sign of intravascular hemolysis (fatigue, hemoglobinuria, abdominal pain, dyspnea, anemia [hemoglobin <10 g/dL], major adverse vascular event [including thrombosis], dysphagia, or erectile dysfunction) in the presence of elevated LDH ≥2 times the ULN.
Measured: Day 183 (Week 26)
Change in Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy-Fatigue Scale (FACIT-Fatigue) Score From Baseline to Day 183 (Week 26)
The FACIT-Fatigue is a 13-item questionnaire that assesses self-reported fatigue and its impact upon daily activities and function over the preceding 7 days. Participants scored each item on a 5-point scale: 0 (Not at all) to 4 (Very much). Total scores range from 0 to 52, with a higher score indicating better quality of life. Analysis was using a mixed-effect model for repeated measures (MMRM) with the fixed categorical effect of visit, fixed continuous effect of the baseline value of FACIT-Fatigue score as covariates, and participant as random effect.
Measured: Baseline, Day 183 (Week 26)
Change in Hemoglobin (Hgb) From Baseline to Day 183 (Week 26)
Analysis was performed using MMRM with the fixed categorical effect of visit, fixed continuous effect of the Hgb baseline value as covariates, and participant as random effect.
Measured: Baseline, Day 183 (Week 26)

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Jun 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 8 sites in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 5 Jun 2026). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Percentage Change in Lactate Dehydrogenase (LDH) From Baseline to Day 183 (Week 26) (time frame: Baseline, Day 183 (Week 26)). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 5 Jun 2026.
