                                  Stool DNA testing for colorectal cancer (CRC) screening

                                  Colorectal Carcinoma (CRC) is the third most frequent cancer type, with an incidence and prevalence of approximately 4,800 and 40,000 cases respectively each year in Austria. Multi-target stool DNA (MT-sDNA) testing is a novel non-invasive screening test that may be able to supplement or replace established stool tests by analysing (stool-based) tumour DNA. In this policy brief, the latest available evidence with regard to the clinical benefits and harms of MT-sDNA tests is summarized.

                                  Covid-19: HSS/ Horizon Scanning Living Document (v17 August/September 2021)

                                  The establishment of a HSS/ Horizon Scanning System for Covid19 interventions has the intentions of informing health policy makers at an early stage which interventions (vaccinations and drugs) are currently undergoing clinical trials and to monitor them over the next few months in order to support evidence-based purchasing if necessary. The products are monitored with regard to the status of the clinical studies up to approval and finally evaluated for their benefit and harm.

                                  All work steps are conducted in close international (European) cooperation.

                                  Health Services Research in Oncology: Patients with Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) Treated with Anti-PD-1/PD-L1 Therapy in Real-World Practice

                                  Real World Evidence (RWE) complements the data of randomised clinical trials, that are based on selected, homogeneous patient collectives and a limited study duration, with long-term data from clinical practice. As there has been no evaluation of immunotherapy in everyday care in Austria to date, a retrospective pilot study was conducted in six Austrian hospitals on the efficacy and safety of anti-PD-1/PDL1 monotherapy in patients with NSCLC using routine data.

                                  Non-interventional studies (NIS) in Austria, 2nd update of systematic analyses 2016 & 2017

                                  Non-interventional studies (NIS) are observational studies that evaluate medicinal products and medical devices in routine care after market authorization in their approved indications. For some years now, there has been a critical discussion about their role, whether they are a valuable source of knowledge or a marketing instrument. In Austria, NIS are not subject to approval, but they are subject to notification. The NIS must be registered in a study database (register), in which some (but not all) information is also made publicly accessible. This systematic analysis addresses the questions of how many non-interventional studies are being conducted in Austria, who is responsible for them and what the knowledge interest of the registered NIS is.

                                  (Good) practice organizational models using real-world evidence for public funding of high prized therapies

                                  The growing market entry of high-cost medicines threatens the financial sustainability of healthcare systems. Limited data available on the benefit of therapies at the time of approval poses a challenge for payers.  Outcome-based Managed-entry agreements (OBMEAs) present a reimbursement tool for payers to fund therapies and enable patient access - under conditions. The study aimed to design a generic organizational model for OBMEAs for highly-priced therapies, providing conditional funding while simultaneously generating publicly accessible data on the real-world evidence of treatment effects.

                                  Epidemiology of long COVID: a preliminary report. German short version of the original KCE report

                                  Due to the expected increase in long COVID cases, social consequences have to be considered in addition to the impairments in daily life for the affected persons and their families. For this reason, an overview of the epidemiology of long COVID, possible risk factors, as well as of the consequences on everyday life, was given in the present review within the cooperation with the Belgian HTA institute, KCE.
