Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: This analysis will be performed on a study cohort of approximately 100 severe hemophilia A boys.The boys will be aged between 6 and 18 years and will have severe FVIII deficiency (baseline levels =65 years) no F.1.3.1 Number of subjects for this age range
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: The analysis of factor VIII clearance must be performed at a time when there is no bleeding (bleeding will use up the factor VIII and therefore shorten its circulation time). In addition, there should be no factor VIII antibodies (factor VIII inhibitors) present at the time of testing.

| Main Objective: The theme of this study is to characterize the genetic factors that influence the clearence of F VIII in patients with severe hemophilia A.;Secondary Objective: ;Primary end point(s): The major issue that we may face is an influence of age on FVIII PK. This effect is well documented, but is largely present in very young children (<5 years) and is minimized by employing an optimal blood sampling schedule and inclusion of patients between 6 and 18 years.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 1 year. | — |
