The development of neutralising (inhibitors) and non‐neutralising antibodies (NNAs) is a complication to factor replacement therapy in haemophilia. The diagnostic methods available lack standardisation, have high inter‐laboratory variation, and false‐negative as well as false‐positive results may affect treatment. Both functional inhibitors and NNAs may be detected with higher reproducibility, sensitivity and specificity using the immunological Luminex xMAP‐based fluorescence‐immunoassay (xFLI).
