Emicizumab has revolutionised haemophilia A treatment landscape and significantly reduced treatment burden, particularly in the paediatric population. We conducted a retrospective study, focused on infants aged ≤18 months with severe haemophilia A. The study included 16 patients, with a median age of 8.2 months and median treatment duration of 61.6 weeks. Before commencing emicizumab, six patients were minimally treated with ≤5 exposure days while 10 were previously untreated patients. Notably, all patients had no inhibitors at baseline, and none developed new inhibitors during the study period. Emicizumab was well tolerated, with no observed side effects or major bleeding events.
