A Study to Test a Medicine (Fitusiran) for Preventing Bleeds in People With Severe Hemophilia Who Previously Received Preventive Treatment With Emicizumab

This is an exploratory, single group, Phase 4, study to assess treatment with fitusiran prophylaxis after switching from emicizumab prophylaxis.

This study aims to evaluate the safety and tolerability of switching to fitusiran after a transition period from the last dose of emicizumab. The study will be conducted in male participants with severe hemophilia A, with or without inhibitors, aged ≥12 years, who were previously receiving emicizumab prophylaxis.

Study details include:

* The study duration will be up to approximately 28 months:

* There will be an approximately 2-month screening period. * There will be an approximately 2-month period before fitusiran treatment starts (pre-fitusiran treatment period) * The fitusiran treatment duration will be up to 18-months (fitusiran treatment period) * The antithrombin (AT) follow-up (FU) period will be approximately 6 months after the last dose of fitusiran (during which the AT activity level will be monitored at approximately monthly intervals following the final fitusiran dose until AT activity levels return to at least 60%). * The study site visits are scheduled at monthly/ every 2 months intervals of 28 days (4 weeks) / 56 days (8 weeks), respectively, during the fitusiran treatment period.

Primary outcomes

  1. Number of participants with Adverse events (AEs) during the fitusiran treatment

    Time frame: From Day 1 up to Month 4

    Incidence, severity, and seriousness, of AEs occurred during fitusiran treatment period will be reported

Secondary outcomes

  1. The peak thrombin generation (TG) - pre fitusiran treatment

    Time frame: From Month -2 up to Day 1

    Central laboratory assessments (peak TG) will be reported for pre-fitusiran period

  2. The peak TG during fitusiran treatment

    Time frame: From Day 1 up to Month 4

    Central laboratory assessments (peak TG) will be reported for fitusiran treatment period

  3. The antithrombin (AT) levels during pre-fitusiran treatment

    Time frame: From Month -2 up to Day 1

    Central laboratory assessments (AT) will be reported for pre-fitusiran treatment period

  4. The AT levels during fitusiran prophylaxis

    Time frame: From Day 1 up to Month 4

    Central laboratory assessments (AT) will be reported for fitusiran treatment

  5. Emicizumab concentrations in plasma

    Time frame: Up to Month 4 of fitusiran treatment

    Emicizumab concentrations in plasma will be reported

  6. Number of participants with AEs from Day 1 to Month 18 of fitusiran treatment

    Time frame: From Day 1 up to Month 18
