Technology appraisals, NICE

National Institute for Clinical Excellence (NICE). Technical guidance for manufacturers and sponsors on making a submission to a technology appraisal, NICE, London, 2001. [Pg.74]

A large proportion of the technology appraisals so far performed by NICE on pharmaceuticals have been on products recently introduced into the marketplace. This has created difficulties for manufacturers trying to answer the questions posed by the appraisal. For most compounds, at the time of launch it is very unlikely that outcome studies will have been completed that allow accurate cost effectiveness calculations to be performed. The emphasis in Phase III is on clinical efficacy and safety to satisfy the requirements of the regulatory authorities. In most cases, it is impossible (and probably imethical) to perform pragmatic studies on the general population imtil safety and efficacy have been satisfactorily demonstrated in a tightly defined trial population.

NICE has transformed the UK marketing landscape and companies need to build the capability to respond to an appraisal of one of its compounds.
