Guidance Recommendations
The Ministry of Health’s Drug Advisory Committee has not recommended alectinib for inclusion on the MOH List of Subsidised Drugs for adjuvant treatment of resectable, anaplastic lymphoma kinase mutation-positive non-small-cell lung cancer. The decision was due to the unacceptable pricing and price-volume agreement proposed by the company.
Clinical indication, subsidy class and MediShield Life claims eligibility for alectinib are provided in the Annex.
