New drug helps prevent bleeds in toddlers with hemophilia
NCT ID NCT05248594
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026
Summary
This study looked at how the drug emicizumab (Hemlibra) works in real-world settings for infants and children up to 3 years old with hemophilia A, a bleeding disorder. Researchers tracked 71 children to see how many were using emicizumab to prevent bleeds and whether any breakthrough bleeding occurred. The goal was to understand how well the drug controls bleeding in very young patients.
