Background: Economic evaluation helps policy makers and healthcare payers make decisions on drug listing, coverage, and reimbursement. When economic evaluations are conducted before a product launch, the prices of the pharmaceuticals have to be forecast.
Objective: The aim of this study was to examine the methods of establishing proxy prices and their accuracies compared with actual market prices after the product launch.
Article Synopsis
- Primary angle closure glaucoma (PACG) is a key cause of blindness, prompting a large-scale study involving over 10,000 PACG patients and nearly 30,000 controls across multiple continents.
- The study identified five new genetic loci associated with PACG risk, each with significant statistical results (e.g., EPDR1 with an odds ratio of 1.24 and a P-value of 5.94 × 10(-15)).
- Additionally, three previously known genetic loci were confirmed, enhancing the understanding of the genetic factors underlying PACG.
