Over the past 5 years, gene and cell therapies have gained
significant attention in both North America and Europe. These
therapies hold tremendous promise, offering potential long-term and
possibly permanent cures for previously incurable or untreatable
diseases, often with a single dose. However, it's not without a
cost: gene therapies are currently priced in the range of 1-4
million U.S. dollars/euros, which has sparked concerns about
affordability and payment responsibility.
In the U.S., where many of the recent drug approvals have taken
place, reinsurance has been a commonly used solution, but it has
its limitations. Payers, drug manufacturers, and government
entities both in the U.S. and EU are diligently working to develop
improved payment models to address these challenges and ensure
access to these live-changing therapies.
In this web session, we aim to provide a basic introduction to
gene and cell therapies, shedding light on the obstacles that lie
ahead in terms of access and affordability and the actuary's role
in helping to develop solutions.
