Abstract

F8genotype is an important risk factor for inhibitor occurrence together with surgical interventions and a high dose of FVIII concentrate. Adequate prevention and treatment of inhibitors in NSHA patients is limited by a lack of understanding of the underlying immunological mechanisms. Elucidation of the immunology driving inhibitor development is required to identify high-risk patients, to understand the association between clinical risk factors and inhibitor occurrence, and to provide the opportunity to develop new preventive and therapeutic strategies
