Can the EVIDEM Framework Tackle Issues Raised by Evaluating Treatments for Rare Diseases: Analysis of Issues and Policies, and Context-Specific Adaptation

Abstract: BackgroundThe multiplicity of issues, including uncertainty and ethical dilemmas, and policies involved in appraising interventions for rare diseases suggests that multicriteria decision analysis (MCDA) based on a holistic definition of value is uniquely suited for this purpose. The objective of this study was to analyze and further develop a comprehensive MCDA framework (EVIDEM) to address rare disease issues and policies, while maintaining its applicability across disease areas.MethodsSpecific issues and pol… Show more

“…Researchers in the rare disease area are also looking into the use of MCDA, which has resulted in a list of scientific publications and MCDA model designs, but full consensus on MCDA is still lacking and further research is needed to support implementation in (rare disease) HTA (94,(101)(102)(103)(104)(105)(106)(107)(108)(109)(110)(111)(112)(113)(114)(115)(116).…”

“…The article by Wagner et al [1] suggests the EVIDEM (Evidence and Value Impact on DEcisionMaking) framework to measure the value of treatments for rare diseases. EVIDEM assesses the value of treatments based on a set of predefined criteria.…”

“…Using multi-criteria decision analysis (MCDA), each criterion obtains a specific weight that enables calculation of an aggregate rating score for each treatment. Criteria suggested by Wagner et al [1] include disease severity, treatment health gain and population size. They are justified by major ethical theories such as utilitarianism, deontology and Rawls's Theory of Justice [2][3][4].…”

“…Las primeras propuestas, más ambiguas, proponían la incorporación de ponderaciones sociales en el análisis (50), mientras que posteriormente os nuevos enfoques se orientaron más hacia métodos de evaluación multi-criterio, que ofrecen la oportunidad de incorporar todos los elementos relevantes de un medicamento en la decisión de financiación de una manera estructurada, transparente y consistente. Este tipo de enfoque es especialmente útil en el caso de los medicamentos huérfanos, campo en el que empiezan exister numerosas propuestas prácticas para su implementación (49,(51)(52)(53)(54)(55).…”
