Following this randomized controlled treatment (RCT) period, all participants will receive ALXN1720 in an open-label extension (OLE) period of 96 weeks.
Placebo Comparator: Placebo
Participants will receive placebo during the 26-week RCT period, after which they will enter the OLE period of the study and receive ALXN1720.
Total Enrollment: 254 participants

Experimental:
Nipocalimab Double-blind Placebo-controlled Phase: Participants will receive nipocalimab intravenous (IV) infusions once every 2 weeks (q2w) up to 24 weeks during double-blind placebo-controlled phase.
Placebo Comparator: PlaceboDouble-blind Placebo-controlled Phase: Participants will receive matching placebo of nipocalimab IV infusion q2w up to 24 weeks during double-blind placebo-controlled phase.
Open-label Extension (OLE) Phase:Participants who complete the double-blind placebo-controlled phase will enter the OLE phase and continue to receive nipocalimab q2w IV infusion from OLE Day 1 to 24 weeks.
