November 2004): “HTA has become a political priority and there is an urgent need for establishing a sustainable European network for HTA”. DG SANCO Public Health Work Plan 2005: HTA wird Prioritätsgebiet Kommissar Kyprianou : (HTA 1 der 7 Haupt-Gebiete): “….the usefulness of establishing a sustainable European health technology assessment network has been recognised ….. I hope to see this network being set up this year, with support from the public health programme.” European Network for HTA EUnetHTA Projekt der Europäischen Kommission Ziel: Aufbau eines effektiven und zukunftsfähigen Netzwerks für HTA in Europa Strategische Ziele Basis für politische Entscheidungen Verbindung öffentlicher HTA-Agenturen, Forschungseinrichtungen und Gesundheitsministerien Effektiver Informationsaustausch Unterstützung politischer Entscheidungen durch Mitgliedsstaaten EUnetHTA Project 2006-2008 64 Partners: 55 Partners from 29 countries (21 EU Member States) including 9 International Partner Organisations Final Report published by European Commission http://ec.europa.eu/health/ph_systems/docs/eunethta_report_en.pdf Fourteen scientific articles published in Int J Technol Assess Health Care, 2009: 25 (Suppl. 2) http://journals.cambridge.org/action/displayIssue?jid=THC&volumeId=2 5&issueId=S2 5 The time-line of reaching a sustainable and permanent HTA network in Europe Health Programme 2005 2009 2011 Call for project proposals Call for Joint Action Call for Joint Action 2006-08 EUnetHTA Project Legislation DG R&I 6 2009 EUnetHTA Collaboration 2010 -12 EUnetHTA JA HTA Core Model® and its application Pool of Structured HTA Information HTA Core Model AE AE = Assessment element AE = Core AE = Non-core INFO CORE HTA AE AE AE AE element element = Locally produced information that does not follow HTA Core model LOCAL REPORT AE AE AE INFO INFO AE AE Domain 1 AE AE AE AE AE AE AE AE AE AE AE AE AE AE AE AE AE AE AE Domain 2 AE INFO Rapid HTA AE Domain 3 AE AE AE AE Domain 4 AE AE AE AE AE REA AE AE AE Kristensen FB_2 Croatia 20101207 AE AE Takes into account local epidemiology, resources, values, etc. HTA Core Model®: structure Health problem and current use of technology Technical characteristics Domain –Topics- Issue Safety Clinical effectiveness Topic 1: Mortality Issue 1: What is the effect of the intervention on overall Topic 2: Morbidity mortality?

EUnetHTA WP on REA started in 2010 EUnetHTA decided to work with the definitions that had been agreed in PF2008 According to the Pharmaceutical Forum: • Relative effectiveness can be defined as the extent to which an intervention does more good than harm compared to one or more intervention alternatives for achieving the desired results when provided under the usual circumstances of health care practice.

Rapid assessments are most common and relevant for reimbursement Purposes The differences between counties, as well as the reasons behind them, need to be considered in the development of a common European methodology for REA EUnetHTA | European network for Health Technology Assessment | www.eunethta.eu Joint Action 2010–2012 Development of REA model Should be based on HTA Core Model (HTA Core Model = A structured manner of creating and presenting HTA information) WP5 HTA Core Model Model for Full REA Model for Rapid REA Health problem and current use of technology Health problem and current use of technology Health problem and current use of technology Description and technical characteristics of the technology Safety Effectiveness Description and technical characteristics of the technology Safety Effectiveness Description and technical characteristics of the technology Safety Effectiveness Cost and economic considerations Cost and economic considerations Cost and economic considerations Ethical analysis Ethical analysis Ethical analysis Organisational analysis Organisational analysis Organisational analysis Social aspects Social aspects Social aspects Legal aspects Legal aspects Legal aspects Mutliple comparators Years after market authorisation Indication based Limited number of comparators Soon after market authorisation EUnetHTA | European network for Health Technology Assessment | www.eunethta.eu Joint Action 2010–2012 WP5 pilot of a rapid assessment Objective: Test the usability of the draft model for rapid REA and the draft guidelines Topic selection: List was produced of all pharmaceuticals that received market authorization between June 2010 and February 2011 Selection made based on exclusion criteria Manufacturers approached for willingness to provide submission file (2 out of 4 were willing) Pazopanib for the first-line treatment of metastatic renal cell cancer.

Schwarzer R, et al. Health Policy 2013 [in preparation] Europäische Union Artikel 15 Zusammenarbeit bei der Bewertung von Gesundheitstechnologien Die Union unterstützt und erleichtert die Zusammenarbeit und den Austausch wissenschaftlicher Informationen zwischen den Mitgliedstaaten im Rahmen eines freiwilligen Netzwerks, das die von den Mitgliedstaaten benannten […] nationalen Behörden […] verbindet. Ziele des EU-Netzwerks www.eunethta.net a) die Unterstützung der Zusammenarbeit zwischen nationalen Behörden beziehungsweise anderen Stellen; b) die Unterstützung der Mitgliedstaaten bei der Bereitstellung objektiver, zuverlässiger, rechtzeitiger, transparenter, vergleichbarer und übertragbarer Informationen über die relative Wirksamkeit sowie gegebenenfalls über die kurz- und langfristige Wirksamkeit von Gesundheitstechnologien und die Schaffung der Voraussetzungen für einen effizienten Austausch dieser Informationen zwischen den nationalen Behörden beziehungsweise anderen Stellen; c) Unterstützung der Analyse des Inhalts und der Art der Informationen, die ausgetauscht werden können; d) Vermeidung von Doppelarbeit bei den Bewertungen.
