The key (common) issues
• The assessment process: how safe and
effective a medicine is
• Pricing & Reimbursement: which
patients will benefit most
• The transferability of the b/r assessment
into in the real life
• Public funding of drug research for a
better decision making process: an
impossible task for National Agencies?
4
Problems coming from
the European MA Process
• Place in therapy of newly licensed drugs
• ATV (Added Therapeutic Value) assessment
for new drugs

Innovation and cost-effectiveness
The case of new anticancer drugs
• Poor predictivity of “responders”
• Patients with disease progression
failures”) identifiable only at follow-up
• Reimbursement of innovative drugs as
a function of their “real” effectiveness
Sharing Innovation – Risks - Costs
