A Phase III Open, Multicentre Study to Investigate the Safety and Efficacy of BPL's High Purity FACTOR X in the Treatment of Factor X Deficient Subjects Undergoing Surgery

To primary efficacy variable is to assess the presence or absence of excessive blood loss
during and after surgery.

The secondary efficacy endpoints are as follows:

1. A subjective overall assessment by the investigator of FACTOR X in the control of
bleeding during surgery.

2. The incidence of bleeding episodes during treatment with FACTOR X while the subject is
at risk of post-operative bleeding, including location and duration.

3. Incremental recovery of FX:C and FX:Ag after the pre-surgery bolus infusion.

4. Assessment of FX:C and FX:Ag levels on each day post-surgery.

5. Assessment of the cumulative weight-adjusted doses of FACTOR X as measured by FX:C
(IU/kg body weight) administered to each subject to maintain haemostasis.

6. Assessment of the cumulative doses of FACTOR X as measured by FX:C (IU) administered to
each subject to maintain haemostasis.

7. Amount of weight-adjusted FACTOR X as measured by FX:C (IU/kg body weight) administered
daily (day of surgery and each post-operative day) to maintain haemostasis.

To investigate the safety and efficacy of FACTOR X administered by bolus infusion to prevent
bleeding and achieve haemostasis in factor X deficient subjects undergoing surgery.

Inclusion Criteria:

- Subjects who are at least 12 years of age at date of written informed consent/assent.

- Subjects who have given written informed consent or, for subjects aged 12-17 years
(inclusive), have given written assent and whose parent/guardian has given written
informed consent.

- Subjects with hereditary mild to severe Factor X deficiency (<20% basal FX activity),
including previously untreated subjects OR those currently treated with Fresh Frozen
Plasma (FFP), Prothrombin Complex Concentrate (PCC) or factor IX/X concentrate by
prophylaxis or on demand.

- Subjects who are to undergo surgery in which the investigator believes a factor X
concentrate will be required due to a prior history of unusual bleeding either
spontaneously or after surgery or trauma in the absence of treatment with a factor X
containing product.

- Pregnant subjects undergoing obstetric delivery (including Caesarean surgery and
vaginal delivery) may enter the study. Female subjects of child-bearing potential must
have a negative result on a human chorionic gonadotropin-based pregnancy test. If a
female subject is or becomes sexually active, she must practice contraception by using
a method of proven reliability for the duration of the study.

Exclusion Criteria:

- Subjects who are required or expected to take other factor X containing medications
during or after surgery.

- Subjects with a history of inhibitor development to FX or a detectable inhibitor to FX
(≥0.6 BU) on the Nijmegen-Bethesda assay at screening. Obtaining a FX inhibitor result
at screening is not mandatory if the subject is to undergo emergency surgery and the
local laboratory is unable to perform the analyses prior to the surgical procedure.

- Subjects with thrombocytopenia (platelets < 50 x 109/L).

- Subjects who have clinically significant renal disease (creatinine >200µmol/L).

- Subjects who have clinically significant liver disease (ALT levels greater than three
times the upper limit of normal).

- Subjects known to have other coagulopathy or thrombophilia.

- Subjects who are currently participating or have participated in another trial within
the last 30 days, with the exception of the BPL Factor X PK study (protocol number
Ten01).

- Female subjects who are lactating.

- Subjects who have known or suspected hypersensitivity to the investigational medicinal
product or its excipients.

- Subjects known to have abused chemicals or drugs within the past 12 months.

- Subjects with a history of unreliability or non-cooperation.
