The Efficacy and Safety of SerpinPC in Participants With Severe Hemophilia A or Moderately Severe to Severe Hemophilia B

Purpose

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of prophylactic SerpinPC administered subcutaneously (SC) to participants with severe hemophilia A (HemA) (with or without inhibitors) or moderately severe to severe hemophilia B (HemB) (without inhibitors) as part of the SerpinPC registrational program. This study consists of 3 parts: Part 1: dose-justification phase, Part 2: dose-confirmatory phase, Part 3: extension phase for participants who complete either Part 1 or Part 2. This adaptive design study has a randomized dose-justification component to investigate the efficacy and safety of SerpinPC as a therapeutic option, principally for participants with HemB without inhibitors. SerpinPC has a novel mechanism of action compared with marketed treatments and those that are in development.

Inclusion Criteria

  1. Male participants ≥12 and ≤65 years of age at the time of informed consent. Enrollment of adolescents (aged ≥12 to <18 years) will be deferred until at least 12 adult participants from each SerpinPC treatment regimen have completed at least 12 weeks of dosing in Part 1 and safety of SerpinPC has been assessed 2. Capable of providing written informed consent (adolescent assent and parental/guardian/legal representative consent when appropriate) for participation and having the opportunity to discuss the study with the investigator or delegate 3. Historically documented severe HemA (defined as factor VIII less than (<) 0.01 international unit (IU)/milliliter(mL) [<1%]), with or without inhibitors, or moderately severe to severe HemB (defined as factor IX ≤0.02 IU/mL [≤2%]), without inhibitors high titer inhibitor (high titer inhibitor defined as ≥5 4. Participant is currently included in a prophylaxis program. Fulfillment of this criterion will be based on investigator's judgment of adequate prophylaxis regimen OR participant is undergoing an on-demand treatment regimen and must have had greater than or equal to (≥) 6 documented acute bleeding episodes (spontaneous or traumatic) that required treatment during the 6 months before screening. Irrespective of the treatment program that the participant is currently undergoing, they must be willing to remain in the same program for the duration of the prospective observational period 5. Participants who are currently in a prophylaxis program must be willing to stop prophylaxis (including episodic prophylaxis for sporting events) before the first dose of SerpinPC 6. For Part 1: At least 12 weeks of prospective documentation of bleeding episodes in the AP-0105 non-interventional study before SerpinPC dosing, or willing to complete a 12-week observational period (at minimum) in AP-0102 7. For Part 2: At least 24 weeks of prospective documentation of bleeding episodes in the AP-0105 non-interventional study before SerpinPC dosing or willing to complete a 24-week observational period (at minimum) in AP-0102 8. No bleeding in the 7 days before baseline (the prospective observation period can be extended by 10 days if there is an ongoing active bleed) 9. D-dimer of less than or equal to (≤) 750 micrograms(μg)/Liter(L). In cases where there is a resolving bleed, the exclusion threshold is ≤1750 milligrams(mg)/L at Screening and Pre-dosing visits 10. Adequate hematologic function, defined as a platelet count of ≥100,000/microliters(μL) (≥100 × 109/L) and hemoglobin level of ≥10 grams(g)/deciliter(dL) (≥100 g/L or ≥6.206 millimols(mmol)/L) at Screening and Pre-dosing visits 11. Adequate hepatic function, defined as a total bilirubin level of ≤1.5*upper limit of normal (ULN) (excluding Gilbert syndrome) and aspartate aminotransferase and/or alanine aminotransferase of ≤3 × ULN at Screening and Pre-dosing visits; no clinical signs or known laboratory or radiographic evidence consistent with cirrhosis of the liver 12. Adequate renal function, defined as a serum creatinine level of ≤2.0*ULN at Screening and Pre-dosing visits 13. Able to use a diary to document bleeding events and medication usage 14. Sexually active participants with a partner who could become pregnant should agree to use effective contraception for the duration of the study effective contraceptive measures include condom with or without spermicide, a combination of male condom with either cap, diaphragm, or sponge with spermicide (double barrier methods), vasectomy, partner using stable contraceptive measures (combined [estrogen and progestogen-containing] hormonal contraception or progestogen-only hormonal contraception initiated 2 or more menstrual cycles prior to screening, intrauterine device [IUD], intrauterine hormone-releasing system [IUS], bilateral tubal ligation), and/or sexual abstinence.

Exclusion Criteria

  1. Known severe thrombophilia (defined as antithrombin deficiency and/or protein S deficiency and or protein C deficiency). 2. Participant with previous factor VIII or factor IX inhibitor who responded to immune tolerance induction and remains on prophylactic factor concentrate 3. Previous deep vein thrombosis, pulmonary embolism, myocardial infarction, or stroke 4. History of intolerance to SC injections 5. Uncontrolled hypertension (systolic blood pressure >160 millimeter of mercury (mm Hg); diastolic blood pressure >100 mm Hg) 6. Weight >150 kg OR body mass index >40 Kilograms(kg)/meter square (m2) 7. Has active cancer and/or requires therapy for cancer, except for basal cell carcinoma 8. Participation in another clinical trial (except for AP-0105) during the 30 days before Screening 9. Use of emicizumab in the 24 weeks before Baseline (Day 0) 10. Prior, ongoing, or planned treatment with gene therapy for hemophilia 11. Any major medical, psychological, or psychiatric condition that could cause the participant to be unsuitable for the study or could interfere with the interpretation of the study results 12. History of or other evidence of recent alcohol or drug abuse as determined by the investigator (in the 12 months before Screening) 13. Known human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection with CD4 count (or T-cell count) of <200 cells/μL within 24 weeks before Screening and Pre-dosing visits. Participants with HIV infection who have CD4 >200 and meet all other criteria are eligible 14. Current or planned treatment with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs 15. Is planning to donate/bank sperm during SerpinPC treatment AND within 30 days of last dose of SerpinPC 16. Any other significant conditions or comorbidities that, in the opinion of the investigator, would make the participant unsuitable for enrollment or could interfere with participation in or completion of the study
