Inclusion Criteria

• Diagnosis of PNH
• Clinically evident extravascular hemolysis (EVH) defined by:
- Anemia (Hgb =9.5 gram/deciliter) with absolute reticulocyte count =
120 x 10^9/liter.
• Receiving a C5 inhibitor for at least 6 months prior to Day.
• Platelet count =30,000/microliters (µL)
• Absolute neutrophil counts =500/µL.
• Documentation of/or willingness to receive vaccinations and
prophylactic antibiotics as required.
Are the trial subjects under 18? no
Number of subjects for this age range:
F.1.2 Adults (18-64 years) yes
F.1.2.1 Number of subjects for this age range 59
F.1.3 Elderly (>=65 years) yes
F.1.3.1 Number of subjects for this age range 27

Exclusion Criteria

• History of a major organ transplant or hematopoietic stem cell
transplantation (HSCT).
• Participants with known aplastic anemia or other bone marrow failure
that requires HSCT or other therapies including anti-thymocyte globulin
and/or immunosuppressants, unless the dosage regimen of
immunosuppressant has been stable for at least 12 weeks before Day 1
and patient is expected to remain on stable doses through Week 24.
• Known or suspected complement deficiency.
• Laboratory abnormalities at screening, including:
- Alanine aminotransferase >2 x ULN (> 3 x ULN in the case of patients
with documented liver iron overload defined by serum ferritin values =
500 ng/mL). The inclusion of patients with documented iron overload
and ALT>2 X ULN will be done in a case by case basis, with prior
discussion with the Medical Monitor.
- Direct bilirubin >2 x ULN - patients who, in the opinion of
investigator, have direct bilirubin > 2 x ULN due to EVH and/or patients
with documented Gilbert's Syndrome. If Gilbert's syndrome is
suspected, the patient will be tested for this condition at screening.
• Current evidence of biliary cholestasis
• Estimated glomerular filtration rate <30 milliliters/minute/1.73 meter
squared and/or are on dialysis.
• Evidence of human immunodeficiency virus, hepatitis B, or active
hepatitis C infection at screening
