Document Objectives

Successful gene therapy will require broad-based, multi-stakeholder participation to define patient eligibility, educate health care providers, educate persons with hemophilia (PWH) and families, and develop shared decision-making tools to facilitate discussions between providers and PWH considering gene therapy. In addition, multi-stakeholder preparation is required to develop clinical protocols for eligibility screening, administration, and follow-up of gene therapy, and to identify ways to remove barriers to access and achieve excellence in clinical delivery to maximize health outcomes. This guideline is focused on hemophilia treatment center (HTC) preparedness for commercial gene therapies for hemophilia.
