Summary
This trial will study whether weekly FVIII injections are necessary to maintain tolerance in children with hemophilia A and inhibitors after successful immune tolerance induction.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for boys aged 12 or younger with severe or moderate hemophilia A who have had a high inhibitor response (>5 BU) but achieved immune tolerance. They must be currently on emicizumab or agree to switch to it, and within one year of successful immune tolerance induction as per ISTH criteria.
What is being tested?
The study tests if continuing weekly FVIII therapy alongside emicizumab is necessary to maintain immune tolerance in children post-successful ITI compared to just using emicizumab alone. It's a randomized, controlled study with two groups followed for up to two years.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects are not detailed here, but generally could include reactions at the injection site, headaches, joint pain related to FVIII treatment, and possible allergic reactions or development of inhibitors against the treatments.
