Ranibizumab: 10 agencies, 2006–2026

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

The file has been open for more than a decade: 19.7 years separate the first record, 22 Nov 2006 at TLV (Sweden), from the most recent, 2026 at PBAC (Australia).

CONITEC (Brazil) changed its position: not recommended on 26 Nov 2012, recommended by 21 Sep 2020, after a resubmission.

No assessment is on file from CIPM (Spain) and G-BA (Germany), each among the eight highest-volume agencies here.

Not every gap is a refusal: for ranibizumab, 2 submissions were never made and 4 were withdrawn or terminated before a decision — an outcome set by the company rather than the assessor.

The file is active: 5 of 41 records date from 2023 or later.

The programme is broad: 12 distinct indication wordings are recorded for ranibizumab by the agencies that label one in English (AWMSG, NICE, PBAC and SMC).

7 of these 41 records carry a year of decision but no day, so any interval quoted here is approximate to within a year.

TLV (Sweden) was first to assess ranibizumab, on 22 Nov 2006; NYE METODER (Norway) did not open a file until 22 Oct 2023 — an unusually long tail of 16.9 years between the earliest and latest system to look at it.

The record arrives in waves: 8 separate years each carry two or more decisions, spread across 16 years in total.

9 of the 10 agencies here assessed ranibizumab more than once, PBAC (Australia) most often at 7 entries — repeat review is the norm for this molecule rather than the exception.

10 of the 18 agencies in this archive hold a record for ranibizumab.

The full ledger for ranibizumab reads 13 recommended, 9 other, 4 deferred to NICE and 4 restricted, with 11 in other categories.
