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.

- Haemophilia-specific QoL Instrument for Adults (Haem-A-QoL) Physical Health scale in participants aged 17 to ≤65 years with hemophilia [ Time Frame: From Baseline up to 24 weeks ]The Haem-A-QoL instrument contains 44 items across 10 domains relevant to HRQoL in adults (physical health, feelings, view of participant's self, sports and leisure, work and school, dealing with hemophilia, treatment, future, family planning, partnership, and sexuality). Each item is rated on a 5-point scale (1=never, 2=rarely, 3=sometimes, 4=often, 5=all the time). Higher scores are indicative of greater impairment in HRQoL.
- Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs) [ Time Frame: From Baseline up to Week 48 ]
