About IPSG
The International Prophylaxis Study Group (the IPSG) is a not-for-profit collaborative group of health care professionals involved with the assessment and care of individuals with inherited bleeding disorders, in particular hemophilia A and B. The goal of the IPSG is to facilitate the acquisition of new knowledge regarding therapies (including factor and non-factor hemostatic therapies and gene therapy) in persons with severe inherited bleeding disorders, focus the hemophilias, and to disseminate this information globally.
