*Randomization was stratified based on prior C5i treatment and transfusion history within the last 6 months.1
PRIMARY END POINTS1
Proportion of patients achieving sustained Hb increase ≥2 g/dL† from baseline without a need for RBC transfusions‡ after 24 weeks
Proportion of patients achieving sustained Hb level of ≥12 g/dL† without a need for RBC transfusions after 24 weeks‡
ADDITIONAL END POINTS1,2
RBC transfusion avoidance§
Change from baseline† in:
• Hb levels (g/dL)‖
• FACIT-Fatigue scores
• Absolute reticulocyte count (ARC) (109/L)
• LDH levelOccurrence of major adverse vascular events¶
Occurrence of clinical breakthrough hemolysis¶,#
†Assessed between Days 126 and 168.1
‡Assessed between Days 14 and 168. Requiring RBCs refers to any patient receiving transfusions or meeting protocol-defined criteria.2,4
§Transfusion avoidance is defined as absence of administration of packed-RBC transfusions between Days 14 and 168.1,4
‖Excludes values within 30 days post-transfusion.1
¶Throughout the study.2,4
#As per the protocol definition.2,4

Mean (SD) ARC (x 109/L) | 193 (84) | 191 (81) |
Mean (SD) disease duration | 11.9 (9.8) | 13.5 (10.9) |
Required ≥1 transfusion in | 56.5% | 60.0% |

In the APPLY study analysis:
- All end points were based on central laboratory data1,5
- 95% CIs were based on the Sato variance estimator5
