This is a multicenter, multinational, open-label, one-way cross-over, Phase 3, single-arm study for treatment of hemophilia. The purpose of this study is to measure the frequency of treated bleeding episodes with fitusiran in male adult and adolescent (≥12 years old) participants with hemophilia A or B, with or without inhibitory antibodies to factor VIII or IX who have switched from their prior standard of care treatment. The total study duration will be up to approximately 50 months (200 weeks, 1 study month is equivalent to 4 weeks) and will include: * A screening period up to approximately 60 days, * A standard of care (SOC) period of approximately 6 study months (24 weeks), * A fitusiran treatment period of approximately 36 study months (144 weeks), * An antithrombin (AT) follow-up period of approximately 6 study months (24 weeks) but may be shorter or longer depending on individual participants AT recovery. The frequency for telephone visits will be approximately every 2 weeks. For site visits the frequency will be approximately every 8 weeks during the SOC period and approximately every 4 weeks during the fitusiran treatment period. If applicable and if allowed by local regulation, home and/or remote visits may be conducted during the study

Annualized bleeding rate (ABR) in the fitusiran primary efficacy period
A bleeding episode is defined as any occurrence of hemorrhage that requires administration of CFCs or BPAs, e.g., hemarthrosis, muscle, or mucosal bleeding.
Time frame: Day 169 to Day 505 (since the first dose of fitusiran)
Annualized bleeding rate (ABR) while on fitusiran prophylaxis in the fitusiran primary efficacy period and ABR while on prophylaxis standard of care (SOC) in the SOC period
A bleeding episode is defined as any occurrence of hemorrhage that requires administration of CFCs or BPAs, e.g., hemarthrosis, muscle, or mucosal bleeding.
Time frame: Day 169 to Day 505 (primary efficacy period) and Day -168 to Day -1 (SOC period)
Annualized bleeding rate (ABR) while on fitusiran prophylaxis in the fitusiran primary efficacy period and ABR while on on-demand standard of care (SOC) in the SOC period
A bleeding episode is defined as any occurrence of hemorrhage that requires administration of CFCs or BPAs, e.g., hemarthrosis, muscle, or mucosal bleeding.
Time frame: Day 169 to Day 505 (primary efficacy period) and Day -168 to Day -1 (SOC period)
Annualized spontaneous bleeding rate in the fitusiran primary efficacy period and in the SOC period
A bleeding episode is defined as any occurrence of hemorrhage that requires administration of CFCs or BPAs, e.g., hemarthrosis, muscle, or mucosal bleeding. A spontaneous bleeding episode is a bleeding event that occurs for no apparent or known reason, particularly into the joints, muscles, and soft tissues.
Time frame: Day 169 to Day 505 (primary efficacy period) and Day -168 to Day -1 (SOC period)
Annualized joint bleeding rate in the fitusiran primary efficacy period and in the SOC period
A bleeding episode is defined as any occurrence of hemorrhage that requires administration of CFCs or BPAs, e.g., hemarthrosis, muscle, or mucosal bleeding. A joint bleeding episode is characterized by an unusual sensation in the joint ("aura") in combination with 1) increasing swelling or warmth over the skin over the joint, 2) increasing pain, or 3) progressive loss of range of motion or difficulty in using the limb as compared with baseline.
Time frame: Day 169 to Day 505 (primary efficacy period) and Day -168 to Day -1 (SOC period)
Change in Haem-A-QOL physical health score and total score during SOC and during fitusiran prophylaxis
The Haem-A-QoL will be provided to participants ≥17 years of age and includes 46 items contributing to 10 QoL domains (physical health, feelings, view of yourself, sports and leisure, work and school, dealing with hemophilia, treatment, future, family planning, partnership, and sexuality). Scoring for each item is based on a 5-point Likert scale (never, rarely, sometimes, often, and all the time), and higher scores represent greater impairment.
Time frame: Day 1 (D1) to Day 505, and from D1 to Day 1009, and during SOC from Day-168 to D-1
Annualized bleeding rate (ABR) in the fitusiran 18-month efficacy period
A bleeding episode is defined as any occurrence of hemorrhage that requires administration of CFCs or BPAs, e.g., hemarthrosis, muscle, or mucosal bleeding.
Time frame: Day 1 to Day 505
Annualized bleeding rate (ABR) in the fitusiran 36-month treatment period
A bleeding episode is defined as any occurrence of hemorrhage that requires administration of CFCs or BPAs, e.g., hemarthrosis, muscle, or mucosal bleeding.
Time frame: Day 1 to Day 1009
Annualized weight-adjusted consumption of CFC/BPA
All CFC or BPA doses (including doses per kg body weight) administered during the study treatment will be recorded
Time frame: Day -168 until Day 1009
Number of participants with adverse events
All AEs (serious or nonserious) will be collected from the signing of the informed consent form (ICF) until last AT follow up visit.
Time frame: Date of signed ICF (Day -228 to Day -169) until last visit (approximately 50 months after date of signed ICF)
