Our surveillance study shows comparable inhibitor development to similar published studies. A significant increase in FVIII utilization was noted for the whole cohort, switchers and non-switchers. Lastly, no clinically significant changes were observed in ABR for joint bleeds, but a difference for non-joint bleed ABRs was observed in switchers.
