MOTIVATE is a multicenter, investigator-initiated study to capture different approaches to the management of patients with hemophilia A and inhibitors. It is registered as a non-interventional study in the US (NCT04023019) and as a low-interventional, pragmatic trial in Europe (EudraCT No. 2019-003427-38). The study includes several optional sub-studies, including analysis of bone and joint health biomarkers, thrombotic risk assessment and F8 gene variant analysis. These sub-studies are important to understand the impact of different treatment approaches on the outcomes of these patients.

Dr Sidonio commented that "It is exciting to be launching this webinar series in the US to raise awareness about the MOTIVATE study and to encourage other sites to participate in this unique study comparing different approaches to inhibitor management". Dr Sander Botter added "This is a great platform to connect to treaters across the US to discuss the MOTIVATE study and the sub-studies, which explore different variables that might have an impact on patient outcomes".
