This Briefing presents data from HTADock, an ongoing metrics study that collects data on new active substances (NASs) appraised by eight HTA agencies and analyses synchronisation between the regulatory decision and first HTA recommendation in terms of timing and outcome. This year we have also analysed the impact of orphan designations on HTA outcomes and explored access pathways for 10 Advanced Therapy Medical Products (ATMPs).

Recommendations were collected from the Australian Pharmaceutical Benefits Advisory Committee (PBAC), Canadian Agency for Drugs and Technologies in Health (CADTH; both Common Drug Review [CDR] and pan-Canadian Oncology Drug Review [pCODR]), English National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE), French Haute Autorité de Santé (HAS), German Institut für Qualität und Wirtschaftlichkeit im Gesundheitswesen (IQWiG), Polish Agencja Oceny Technologii Medycznych i Taryfikacji (AOTMiT), Scottish Medicines Consortium (SMC) and Swedish Tandvårds- & läkemedelsförmånsverket (TLV), for NASs approved 2012-2019 by the respective jurisdictional regulatory agencies, the Australian Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA), Health Canada and European Medicines Association (EMA).
