Despite significant paradigm shifts in the medical management of hemophilia A with inhibitors and the expanding use of novel non-factor therapies, FVIII-based immune tolerance induction (ITI) is still the only effective means to inhibitor eradication. With the recently introduced Atlanta protocol, emicizumab prophylaxis is given in combination with 50-100 IU/kg FVIII three times a week.
In this session from the WFH 2020 Virtual Summit, Alok Srivastava, Midori Shima, Gallia Levy & Steven Pipe explore the impact of emicizumab prophylaxis for non-inhibitor patients and examine the current status of clinical studies regarding emicizumab prophylaxis.
