Authors' objectives: This review provides an overview of all cancer drugs approved by the European Medicines Agency (EMA) between 2009 and 2015 and the state of knowledge on patient-benefit at the time of approval, and analyses which policies for high-prized cancer drugs are applied in other (European) countries.
Authors' recommendations: Assessments with (binding) recommendations, health economical evaluations, "Managed-Entry Agreements" and "Value-based pricing" are approaches to identify cancer drugs with the highest benefit whilst incurring acceptable costs, through transparent and traceable methods.
