Brief Summary: This is an observational prospective longitudinal multicenter cohort study designed with the scope to verify whether or not TGA may predict effectiveness of different FVIII concentrates class devoid or rich of VWF in patient affected by severe or moderately severe inherited haemophilia A and inhibitors
Detailed Description: Rationale

Hemophilia A is a serious and common hereditary bleeding disorder caused by deficiency of coagulation factor VIII FVIII Patients with this disease are treated with recombinant factor VIII or factor VIII concentrates derived from plasma

Administration of exogenous FVIII in 15-35 of cases cause the formation of antibodies to FVIII inhibitors that neutralize the activity of factor VIII making the treatment ineffectiveThe development of inhibitors of factor VIII FVIII is the most serious and challenging complication of the treatment of hemophilia A and represents the highest economic burden for a chronic disease Therefore research is making great efforts to optimize the best therapeutic approach for the disease

It has been observed that FVIII inhibitors display a wide range of immunoreactivity when tested against different classes of FVIII concentrates withwithout von Willebrand factor -VWF It has been demonstrated that the different inhibitors reactivity may correlate with different ability of inhibitors to impair thrombin generation as tested by Thrombin Generation Assay TGA In these patients TGA assay might be a tool to predict which FVIII concentrate has the greater haemostatic effectiveness

It is also uncertain if the different classes of FVIII used in ITI protocols may have a different effectiveness in reducing the occurrence of BT bleedings and if this may correlate to lower reactivity epitope specificity VWF content and may be predicted by TGA It would be very helpful to be able to give an evidence based diagnostic and prognostic instrument the TGA to aid physician to optimize the therapy for all inhibitors patients
