Hemophilia treatment. Immune tolerance: the parent's perspective.

abstract：BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES:Recently, a chimeric monoclonal antibody (MoAb) directed against the CD20 antigen (rituximab) has been successfully introduced in the treatment of several CD20-positive B-cell neoplasias and particularly of follicular lymphomas. Based on these premises we evaluated the efficacy and the toxicit...
