A Phase 3, Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Study to Assess the Efficacy and Safety of Sutimlimab in Patients With Primary Cold Agglutinin Disease Without a Recent History of Blood Transfusion
The purpose of Part A was to determine whether sutimlimab administration resulted in a greater than or equal to (\>=)1.5 grams per deciliter (g/dL) increase in hemoglobin (Hgb) level and avoidance of transfusion in participants with primary cold agglutinin disease (CAD) without a recent history of blood transfusion. The purpose of Part B was to evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of sutimlimab in participants with primary CAD.
• Body weight of \>=39 kg at screening.
• Confirmed diagnosis of primary CAD based on the following criteria: a) Chronic hemolysis, b) Polyspecific direct antiglobulin test (DAT) positive, c) Monospecific DAT strongly positive for C3d, d) Cold agglutinin titer \>= 64 at 4 degree Celsius, and e) Immunoglobulin G DAT less than or equal to (\<=) 1+, and, f) No overt malignant disease.
• Hemoglobin level \<= 10.0 g/dL.
• Bilirubin level above the normal reference range, including participants with Gilbert's Syndrome.
