- For new OD subjects, the participant is scheduled for a surgical intervention.
- The participant is identified by the investigator as being unable or unwilling to cooperate with study procedures.
- The participant has a mental condition rendering him/her unable to understand the nature, scope and possible consequences of the study and/or evidence of an uncooperative attitude.

Delay criteria Only for Cohort 4, if the participant presents with an acute bleeding episodes or acute illness (eg, influenza, flu-like syndrome, allergic rhinitis/conjunctivitis, and non-seasonal asthma) the screening visit will be postponed until the participant has recovered. For all other participants, end of study (EOS) visit for 071102 or 071301 will be completed per protocol and the completed EOS in Study 071102 or 071301 will also serve as the screening visit for this continuation study (SHP677-304).
