Emergency or salvage cardiac surgery is expected at screening or randomization, as assessed by the Investigator, History of unexplained, recurrent infection., Known medical or psychological condition(s), including substance abuse, or risk factor that, in the opinion of the Investigator, might interfere with the participant’s full participation in the study, pose any additional risk for the participant, or confound the assessment of the participant or outcome of the study., History of, or unresolved, N meningitidis infection, Hypersensitivity to any ingredient contained in the study intervention, including hypersensitivity to murine proteins., Current malignancy (excluding local or regional prostate cancer or non-melanoma skin cancer) or receiving treatment for malignancy, Use of any complement inhibitors, or plasmapheresis or plasma exchange within the year prior to Screening, or planned use during the course of the study., Planned use of any pharmacologic agent specifically for prevention or treatment of AKI., Anticipated use of KRT, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, or temporary cardiac support devices including left ventricular assist device between randomization and surgery. Elective or pre-emptive insertion of temporary cardiac support devices (including IABP) on the day of surgery is acceptable in the absence of cardiogenic shock or hemodynamic instability., Participation in another interventional treatment study or use of any experimental therapy within 30 days before initiation of study intervention on Day 1 in this study or within 5 half-lives of that investigational product (IP), whichever is greater, or planned participation/use during the course of the study., Presence of a do-not-resuscitate order or life expectancy of < 3 months., Single-vessel CABG without valve surgery is planned., Pregnant, breastfeeding, or intending to conceive within 8 months after the dose of study intervention., Participant is not willing to be vaccinated against N meningitidis or is unwilling to receive prophylactic treatment with appropriate antibiotics, if needed, Off-pump surgery is planned (eg, surgery without CPB)., Any use of KRT or presence of AKI within 30 days prior to randomization (AKI defined as 1.5x increase in sCr over baseline), except transient (= 5 days) Stage 1 AKI after iodinated contrast exposure., Recipient of a solid organ or bone marrow transplantation., Cardiogenic shock or hemodynamic instability, including use of intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) or other temporary cardiac output support device, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), or left ventricular assist device within 72 hours prior to randomization., Active systemic bacterial, viral, or fungal infection within 14 days prior to randomization., Participants with history of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) who are not on anti-retroviral therapy or if on therapy have a known detectable viral load within 1 year prior to Screening., Congenital immunodeficiency.
