English term or phrase: 8-fold

Immune tolerance induction (ITI) is an intensive treatment that aims to reduce or eliminate inhibitors against clotting factor. This treatment entails regular use of doses of clotting factor concentrates and/or immunomodulating agents to tolerize the immune system to the clotting factor. ITI regimens require commitment from the patient and family as some regimens utilize infusion as often as twice per day.19
Because they reduce the effectiveness of clotting factor replacement therapy, inhibitors further complicate hemophilia treatment, thereby increasing the cost of care due to the high cost of bypassing agents and ITI regimens. It has been estimated that in individuals with FVIII inhibitors with unfavorable prognosis, there is an 8-fold increase in FVIII consumption and cost of care.20
The IHTC provides immune tolerance clinics for individuals with inhibitors. To read more about the services provided through clinic, click here.
