In order to make new drugs available to patients in Australia, a successful interaction with the PBAC – the Australian HTA body is needed. Alan Brnabic lives in Australia and collected a lot of experience with these submissions over the years.
In this episode, we cover:
- the basics of understanding how the PBAC works,
- why a successful PBAC submission is important,
- what evidence is needed to have a successful PBAC submission,
- how much work is needed from the statistician’s side for the PBAC interactions,
- what are the typical challenges from the PBAC,
- when is a good start to get prepared for the PBAC work, and
- how is the data submitted to PBAC publicly available
