1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

With the increasing pipeline of cell and gene therapies (CGTs) and the expected surge in the number of approvals, understanding the market access landscape becomes crucial for timely patient access. This study evaluates the challenges Dutch stakeholders encounter in CGT market access, offering insights for improving time-to-patient access. A traditional literature review was conducted to identify market access challenges and solutions for CGTs. Based on the findings, participants for semi-structured interviews, designed using an interview guide adapted to the Dutch context, were selected to capture diverse perspectives on market access. This review included 124 relevant articles out of 2449, covering several aspects of market access of CGTs. Subsequently, interviews with 16 stakeholders from academia, patient advocacy groups, manufacturers, health insurers, payers, hospital pharmacists, healthcare practitioners, and the Association of Innovative Medicines were conducted. Stakeholders identified challenges and proposed solutions for reimbursement package management, clinical trials, health economics, payment models, and procedural and organisational aspects. Thematic analysis revealed unique country-specific challenges and solutions in the Netherlands. This research provides insights into these challenges and potential solutions, emphasising the need for collaborative efforts among stakeholders to develop practical and multidisciplinary measures to improve the market access landscape for CGTs in the country.
