| Incidence of Anti-Drug Antibodies (ADAs) Directed Against MEDI-551Timepoint: From the start of treatment with investigational product until the end of the Safety Follow-up Period, for a total of 12 months following the last dose of investigational product. Incidence of anti-drug antibodies (ADAs) directed against MEDI-551 (both predose and postdose for each subject).;Number of NMO/NMOSD-Related In-Patient HospitalizationsTimepoint: From the start of treatment with invesigational product up to Day 197 of Randomised Control Period.;Number of Participants with Adverse Events as a Measure of Safety and TolerabilityTimepoint: From the start of treatment with investigational product until the end of the Safety Follow-up Period, for a total of 12 months following the last dose of investigational product. Treatment-emergent adverse events, treatment-emergent serious adverse events (TESAEs), including laboratory measurements as well as their changes or shift from baseline over time.;TMAX and CMAXTimepoint: From Day 1 of the study until on or before Day 197 of the randomized-controlled period. Mean MEDI-551 concentration versus time data will be plotted by AQP4-IgG seropositive and seronegative subjects.;Worsening in EDSSTimepoint: From the start of treatment with invesigational product up to Day 197 of Randomised Control Period. Worsening from baseline in EDSS at last visit during the RCP.;Attack RateTimepoint: Annualized attack rate normalized by person/years during the open-label period, for a minimum of 1 year after the last subject enters and a maximum of 3 years after the last subject enters;Change in Low-Contrast Visual Acuity Binocular ScoreTimepoint: From the start of treatment with invesigational product up to Day 197 of Randomised Control Period. Change from baseline in low-contrast visual acuity binocular score measured by low-contrast Landolt C Broken Rings Chart.;Cumulative Total Active MRI LesionsTimepoint: From the start of treatment with invesigational p | — |
