Hemophilia, a rare X-linked hereditary bleeding disorder, is characterized by deficiency of coagulation factors. Symptoms range from spontaneous joint and muscle bleeds to life-threatening hemorrhage, for which patients require frequent infusion of coagulation factors, profoundly impacting their quality of life. Novel therapeutics and advances in gene therapy now offer patients long-term disease control and improved quality of life. Here, we focus on important developments in the use of extended half-life factor products, non-factor replacement therapies, and gene therapy. We also highlight the mechanism of action, clinical efficacy, and safety of these newer approaches.
