简要总结
Primary prophylaxis given less frequently initially, with the infusion frequency increased if needed (Escalating Dose Prophylaxis), is likely to be less expensive and associated with fewer complications than standard prophylaxis while reducing disability to a greater degree than intermittent therapy.
详细描述
There are 2 specific study objectives. The first is to estimate the incidence of target joint bleeding in patients with severe hemophilia A treated (for primary prophylaxis) with Escalating Dose Prophylactic factor replacement. The second objective is to obtain accurate estimates of the direct and indirect costs associated with this protocol for use in a cost-effectiveness model (comparing Escalating Dose with standard prophylaxis and with intermittent therapy).
