Lixisenatide: 6 agencies, 2013–2019

This page collects every recorded health technology assessment decision for one molecule across the agencies in our archive, and compares them. The comparison is the point: each agency publishes its own verdict, none publishes how that verdict sits against the others.

What the record shows

Where lixisenatide met resistance it was usually narrowed rather than refused: 4 of 5 decisive outcomes were recommendations with restrictions, against 1 outright refusal.

Assessment has run over 5.8 years, from 24 Jun 2013 at ZIN (Netherlands) to 19 Mar 2019 at PHARMAC (New Zealand).

TLV (Sweden) changed its position: not recommended on 31 Jan 2014, restricted by 26 Feb 2015, after a resubmission.

No assessment is on file from HAS (France), PBAC (Australia) and CIPM (Spain), each among the eight highest-volume agencies here.

Nothing has been added since 2019; on this evidence the file is dormant.

ZIN (Netherlands) was first to assess lixisenatide, on 24 Jun 2013; PHARMAC (New Zealand) did not open a file until 19 Mar 2019 — a wide spread of 5.8 years between the earliest and latest system to look at it.

Activity is concentrated rather than steady: 4 of 7 dated records fall in 2013 alone.

Restriction is doing real work here: 4 of 5 decisive outcomes narrowed lixisenatide to a subgroup rather than accepting or refusing it outright, at AWMSG (Wales), SMC (Scotland) and TLV (Sweden) among others.

TLV (Sweden) is the only agency to have returned to lixisenatide, recording 2 separate entries.

6 of the 18 agencies in this archive hold a record for lixisenatide.

The full ledger for lixisenatide reads 4 restricted, 1 other, 1 not recommended and 1 no benefit.
