Participants who completed successful immune tolerance induction (ITI) at least 5 years before screening are eligible, provided they have had no evidence of inhibitor recurrence (permanent or temporary) as may be indicated by detection of an inhibitor, FVIII half-life <6 hours, or FVIII recovery <66% since completing ITI
- Participants who were on standard FVIII prophylaxis, defined as the regular administration of FVIII to prevent bleeding, for at least the last 24 weeks, can be enrolled regardless of the number of bleeds during this period

- Other conditions (e.g., certain autoimmune diseases) that may currently increase the risk of bleeding or thrombosis
- History of clinically significant hypersensitivity associated with monoclonal antibody therapies or components of the emicizumab injection
- Planned surgery during the emicizumab loading dose phase
- Known HIV infection not controlled by medication
- Concomitant disease, condition, significant abnormality on screening evaluation or laboratory tests, or treatment that could interfere with the conduct of the study, or that would in the opinion of the investigator, pose an additional unacceptable risk in administering study drug to the participant
- Receipt of any of the following: An investigational drug to treat or reduce the risk of hemophilic bleeds within 5 half-lives of last drug administration at screening; A non-hemophilia-related investigational drug within last 30 days or 5 half-lives at screening, whichever is shorter; or, Any other investigational drug currently being administered or planned to be administered
