Patient of all severities. A total of 14 inhibitors were in patients > 75 ED; 11 of 14 were low titer, and 6 of 14 were transient. Total patients with > 75 ED not reported but rate likely estimated at .0023.

Only patients with factor VIII < 0.03 U/mL were studied. A total of 13 inhibitors were in patients > 10 years of age. Total patients > 10 years not reported, but the rate was definitely < 0.002.

Patients of all severities. 95% confidence interval for ≥ 15 was 0.0017-0.0023. Rate was 0.0052 in severe patients 5-14 years of age and 0.0038 in those ≥ 15 years of age.

§

Patients of all severities with negative titer before and at enrollment in UDC. All had > 50 ED. Two additional transient inhibitor were reported; 6 of 7 inhibitors were low titer.

Severe patients only. Of the 106 inhibitors in patients 10-49 years of age, 54 were high and 28 were low titer. Of the 11 in patients 50-59 years of age, 9 were high and 9 were low titer.
