Hemophilia Gene Therapy in Israel
Hemophilia is a rare and life-threatening bleeding disorder. Typically inherited, this disease is caused by a lack of clotting factors in your blood. The conventional treatment includes regular replacement of the missing clotting factor via infusion. Yet, now on the horizon is hemophilia gene therapy, a groundbreaking treatment based on genetic engineering. Hemophilia gene therapy aims to eradicate the disease for life – with only a single dose. Sheba Medical Center is presently one of the only places in the world to offer this innovative treatment.
