Conferme di efficacia e di tollerabilità per midostaurina in combinazione con la chemioterapia nel trattamento della LLA FL3-mutata.
As part of the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence’s (NICE’s) Single Technology Appraisal (STA) process, Novartis submitted evidence on the clinical effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of tisagenlecleucel for treating paediatric and young adult patients (under the age of 25 years) with relapsed or refractory (r/r) B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL). This article presents a summary of the Evidence Review
The development of cluster of differentiation (CD)-19-targeted chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells for the treatment of pre-B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) is an exciting new advancement in the field of pediatric oncology. Tisagenlecleucel and axicabtagene ciloleucel are the first US FDA-approved CD19-targeted CAR T cells. While various different CD19 CAR T cells are in development, tisagenlecleucel is the only CAR T cell approved for pediatric
Purpose of review: Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T-cell therapy is a revolutionary tool in the treatment of cancer. CAR-T cells exhibit their effector functions through the recognition of their specific antigens on tumor cells and recruitment of other immune cells. However, this therapy is limited by the development of severe toxicities and modest antitumor activity in solid tumors. The host and tumor microenvironment
Objective: Older adults in long-term care (LTC) are often frail, comorbid, and have multiple medications. Pharmacist review of medications has been integrated into LTC practice in many countries through policy and reimbursement models, but the impact is variable in the literature. The purpose of our study was to review the literature regarding the impact of the pharmacist in LTC. Data Sources:
Chimeric antigen receptor T-cells are a novel class of anti-cancer therapy in which autologous or allogeneic T-cells are engineered to express a chimeric antigen receptor targeting a membrane antigen. In Europe, Tisagenlecleucel (KymriahTM) is approved for the treatment of refractory/relapsed Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia in children and young adults as well as relapsed/refractory Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma; Axicabtagene ciloleucel (YescartaTM) is
Summary: Research suggests various inventory optimization models, which can lead to cost reductions while maintaining adequate service levels; however, they are facing limited adoption in healthcare settings. The main barriers appear to be the high effort and complexity of implementation, the dependence on data that are not available or might not be in the right form, and the one-size-fits-all approach
Background: Clinicians prescribe high-cost medicines for rare diseases and nonapproved indications when conventional therapies have failed. Objective To examine the use of non-formulary high-cost medicines at an Australian public hospital. Methods Retrospective audit of individual patient use applications for nonformulary medicines costing more than $5000 AUD per year at a large tertiary referral hospital in Adelaide, South Australia over a
