The purpose of Part A was to determine whether sutimlimab administration resulted in a greater than or equal to (>=) 2 grams per deciliter (g/dL) increase in hemoglobin (Hgb) levels or increased Hgb to >= 12 g/dL and obviated the need for blood transfusion during treatment in participants with primary cold agglutinin disease (CAD) who had 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 CAD.

| Primary | Part A: Percentage of Participants With Response to Treatment | A participant was considered a responder: if he or she did not receive a blood transfusion from Week 5 through Week 26 (end of treatment in Part A) and did not receive treatment for CAD beyond what was permitted per protocol. Additionally, the participant's hemoglobin (Hgb) level must meet either of the following criteria: Hgb level >= 12 grams per deciliter (g/dL) at the treatment assessment endpoint (defined as the average of the values from the Week 23, 25, and 26 visits), or Hgb increased >= 2 g/dL from baseline (defined as the last Hgb value before administration of the first dose of study drug) at treatment assessment endpoint. Percentage of responders was calculated together with a 95% exact Clopper-Pearson confidence interval (CI). | From Week 5 through Week 26 | |

Treatment assessment timepoint was defined as the average of the values from the Week 23, 25, and 26 visits. LS mean and 95% CI was assessed by MMRM approach using TOEPH covariance matrix with change from baseline as the dependent variable and baseline value and visits as independent variables.
