Accelerating Oncology Drug Reimbursement in Canada: Impact of the CDA-AMC Time-Limited Recommendation and pCPA Temporary Access Process.
Article in Current oncology (Toronto, Ont.), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.
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
The complex pathway for new drug reimbursement in Canada has been well documented. Drugs with promising early efficacy data may receive a Notice of Compliance with Conditions (NOC/c) from Health Canada. For oncology drugs that receive NOC/c, the pathway through positive review by Canada's Drug Agency (CDA-AMC) and subsequent public reimbursement can take over 500 days. To address this challenge, in September 2023, CDA-AMC announced a new Time-Limited Recommendation (TLR) category, and in parallel, the pan-Canadian Pharmaceutical Alliance (pCPA) developed a set of principles and conditions for a Temporary Access Process (pTAP). This accelerated access pathway, the first of its kind in Canada, enables patients with advanced diseases to gain timely access to promising therapies while managing the uncertainties and risks associated with early approvals. This report provides a first assessment of the impact of the TLR-pTAP process on the reimbursement timelines for oncology drugs approved with NOC/c.
