Addressing the Economic and
Operational Issues of the
Clinical Practice Gaps in NSCLC
This paper outlines the 5 critical recommendations developed by The Health and Economic Forum to provide industry and policy makers with valuable and clear economic guidance and recommendations to overcome the challenges obstructing the advancement of precision medicine.
Background
In August 2023, an interdisciplinary group of experts, known as ‘The Precision Medicine Practice Gaps Economic, Policy and Operational Solutions Forum’ was established to urgently address the economic and operational barriers currently preventing 64.4% of patients gaining access to the optimal precision medicine treatment for them, as identified in Diaceutics’ widely cited Clinical Practice Gaps paper published JCO in 2022.
The Summit
The solutions and recommendations proposed by the Forum were shared and opened for discussion at a virtual global summit earlier this year, broadcast from Diaceutics’ headquarters in Belfast. The Summit attracted over 400 registrants from various sectors, including pharmaceuticals, academia, clinical research, diagnostic labs, payers, policy, and patient advocacy groups.
Following the Summit, the Forum refined these recommendations into clear, actionable guidelines. These final recommendations, presented in this white paper, aim to provide industry and policy makers with valuable and clear economic guidance and recommendations to overcome the challenges obstructing the advancement of precision medicine.
