Popis: Background Limited data exist on the clinical impact of low-responding inhibitors and the requirement for immune tolerance induction (ITI) treatment to establish tolerance, reduce bleeding, and improve outcome. The aim of this article is to describe the therapeutic management of children with severe hemophilia A and low-responding inhibitors and its effect on bleeding phenotype. Methods The REMAIN (Real-life Management of Inhibitors) study is a satellite study of the PedNet registry. It included unselected children with severe hemophilia A (factor VIII [FVIII] Results A total of 260 patients with inhibitors were identified and 68 of them (26%) had low-responding inhibitors (peak Conclusion In children with low-responding inhibitors negative titers were reached with regular FVIII treatment irrespective of the regimen (i.e., prophylaxis or ITI).
