3.Female participants of childbearing potential and male participants with female partners of childbearing potential must use highly effective contraception starting at screening and continuing until at least 8 months after the last dose of ravulizumab
4.Diagnosis of TMA (platelet count, LDH, and acute kidney injury) associated with a trigger such as autoimmune, solid organ transplant or drug induced
5.Vaccinated against meningococcal infection (N meningitidis), within 3 years prior to, or at the time of, randomization.

If participant cannot receive the meningococcal vaccine, then participant must be willing to receive antibiotic prophylaxis coverage against N meningitidis during the entire Treatment Period and for 8 months following the final dose of study drug. Additional vaccination (Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib) and Streptococcus pneumoniae) may be considered based on individual patient condition
