19、Middle-Income Countries(LMICs)can now aim to achieve a price of under US$100 per patient course for 12 weeks of treatment with WHO PQd Sofosbuvir(SOF)and Daclatasvir(DCV).LMICs with a procurement plan,large procurement volumes and strong public commitment by government to HCV elimination over a defi

24、s with suppliers.Countries can explore alternative pricing mechanisms such as public-private partnerships and insurance schemes in order to reduce the financial burden on patients paying out-of-pocket.Countries observing high price mark-ups can reduce prices by identifying different contributing fac
25、tors and limiting them where possible.Countries can benefit from lower pricing by planning procurement and ordering DAAs in optimal quantities and/or publicly committing to HCV program scale-up toward elimination.India,Egypt,Pakistan,Rwanda are examples of countries that have committed to scaling up
26、 their HCV programs.To accelerate progress towards HCV elimination,countries will need to intensify case finding efforts.Countries that prioritized patients who were previously diagnosed and awaiting care for HCV treatment will need to focus on active case finding.123689745Key StatisticsGlobal HCV B

31、st prevalent infectious diseases.1 More than 80 percent of the burden is in LMICs.2 The HCV epidemic continues to grow both in size,with 1.75 million new infections annually,and in severity,causing more than 400,000 deaths per year from advanced liver disease,including cancer.3 Despite its high prev
32、alence,morbidity and mortality,only 19 percent(13.1 million)of people living with HCV knew their status in 20174,and only 7 percent(5 million)received treatment worldwide as of 2017.5 Many factors contribute to this major gap in access,including limited awareness due to the asymptomatic nature of HC
33、V infection,lack of funding and infrastructure for public screening and treatment programs,and the historically high costs of previous treatments(interferon-based)that had high toxicities and low success rates.WHO and its member states committed in 2016 to eliminate viral hepatitis by 2030.The avail
34、ability and pricing of pan-genotypic DAAs with cure rates over 95 percent and minimal side effects,coupled with a simple diagnostic algorithm,make the goal of achieving HCV elimination by 2030 feasible.Although uptake has been uneven across LMICs and scale up has been concentrated in few countries,d
35、eclining costs for diagnosis and treatment have resulted in increases in the number of patients initiated on treatment.In turn,increasingly affordable and effective diagnostic tools and medications are enabling the simplification and decentralization of HCV diagnosis and treatment services,supportin
36、g further scale-up of services.HCV screening and diagnosis using existing technologies is feasible and the cost of testing continues to decline.A number of inexpensive and robust Quality Assured(QA)tests are available for screening and confirmation of viremia including rapid antibody tests and labor
37、atory-based and near point-of-care VL diagnostics.The introduction of DAAs in the market in 2014 has been a game changer for HCV treatment.DAAs are significantly superior to interferon-based treatment in several aspects.Depending on the regimen used,DAAs are pan-genotypic,have high cure rates(over 9
38、5 percent)with minimal side effects,and are orally administered over eight to 12 weeks.Since 2014,the cost of treating HCV in LMICs has come down significantly from over US$3,000 per patient course with interferon-based treatment(before the introduction of DAAs)to as low as US$60 per patient course
39、in 2019 with WHO PQd individual SOF and DCV(SOF+DCV)in Rwanda.While the number of people who initiated DAA-based treatment for HCV rose between 2015 and 1 Polaris Observatory HCV Collaborators.Global prevalence and genotype distribution of hepatitis C virus infection in 2015:a modelling study.Lancet

43、 half the patients who started DAA treatment in 2016.6 Uptake of DAAs has been limited across several high-burden LMICs and challenges to access continue to exist.Some of these market challenges include lack of awareness among stakeholders on global benchmark pricing,availability of WHO PQd product
44、options in-country,slow or limited in-country product registration,and limited domestic and donor financing.As a result,volumes of patients put on treatment have not increased in proportion to the decline in price of DAAs.Similar challenges also exist for diagnostics.Global targets for viral hepatit
45、is elimination are predicated on achieving widespread diagnosis of the majority of persons living with chronic viral hepatitis.Implementing reliable and affordable testing in LMICs is essential to enable the successful use of DAAs in treatment.However,despite substantial global price reductions,the
46、cost of diagnostics remains high in many countries,with drivers ranging from fragmented demand,limited in-country registrations,high mark-ups and non-coordinated procurement.Furthermore,there are significant gaps in publicly available information for the global diagnostics market in the areas of pri
47、cing,test volumes and in-country registrations.Taking into account market challenges on the treatment and diagnostics front,there is a risk that countries may not reach the WHO endorsed Global Health Sector Strategy(GHSS)HCV elimination goal by 2030.Better market transparency for key stakeholders,in
48、cluding governments,suppliers,and donors,could be a step toward mitigating these market challenges.The aim of this HCV market report is to provide an overview of supplier landscape for WHO PQd/ERP reviewed HCV treatment drugs and diagnostics,outline historical volumes and pricing trends,highlight gl
49、obal benchmark prices,and suggest potential ways in which countries can access diagnostics and drugs at more affordable prices.The report focuses on LMICs with a high HCV burden,and WHO PQd/ERP reviewed products as they meet quality assurance standards and have been declared bioequivalent to the inn
50、ovator products.While the report does not advocate the use of locally approved products,pricing information on the report accounts for locally approved products(which do not meet global quality standards but meet local quality standards),in addition to WHO PQd/ERP reviewed products,as these products
51、 are available and being used in several LMICs.A concise report on historical pricing and volume trends will help the broader HCV community to understand the market landscape,identify existing gaps,and work toward solving demand and supply related problems in the market.Addressing the market related
52、 problems can help expedite progress in achieving HCV elimination by 2030.Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic on Hepatitis C EliminationAs significant public health resources are redirected to address the COVID-19 pandemic,the strain on systems being pushed beyond limits to support pandemic preparedness and
53、 response is having critical implications on global health programs.Policies in place on physical distancing and redirected efforts of Ministries of Health and healthcare workers is affecting HCV diagnosis,treatment and harm reduction programs to varying degrees across countries.For the most part,co
54、untries are suspending routine screening,screening campaigns and clinic visits,which is disrupting HCV case finding efforts.There is a risk of incidence of HCV increasing with closure of harm reduction centers,without having policies in place to ensure that people who inject drugs that are at high r
55、isk of HCV infection have alternative access to critical harm reductions services,such as needle and syringe programs and opioid substitution therapy.Furthermore,the temporary closure of healthcare facilities and limits to non-emergency visits to reduce risk of SARS-CoV-2 virus transmission is affec
56、ting HCV treatment uptake.The world is facing an unprecedented pandemic crisis in COVID-19.The responses to the pandemic must also ensure that momentum in the scale-up of HCV elimination programs and other health priorities is not lost.Global and country action towards controlling COVID-19 can reinf
57、orce the fight against other epidemics;COVID-19 investments,for example,in the expansion of diagnostic capacity,supply chain systems,and upskilling of healthcare workers can lay the foundation for an acceleration of efforts to strengthen health systems overall.These opportunities cannot be overshado

75、SOF/LDV SOF/VELKeY TaKeaWaY32Hepatitis C Market ReportThe price of HCV treatment has fallen significantly over the past five years with the introduction of more effective treatment and expansion of the generic landscape for DAAs.Exhibit 12 illustrates that before 2014,there were no DAAs in the marke
76、t and price for interferon-based therapy was over US$3,000 per patient course.In 2014,with the introduction of DAAs,the price per patient course offered by the innovators was over US$750.More recently,the price for WHO PQd generic SOF and DCV has come down to US$60 per patient course for 12 weeks in
77、 Rwanda,making this price the new global benchmark price for WHO PQd HCV treatment.While some countries such as India,Pakistan,and Egypt are paying lower than US$60 per patient course,they are procuring locally approved products,which can be manufactured at a lower cost than WHO PQd products.Exhibit
78、 13 summarizes the weighted average price for a 12-week DAA treatment course in LMICs.Prices are shown in Freight On Board(FOB)terms.These are prices at which generic suppliers export drugs from India.They do not include shipping,customs,storage,and distributor-associated costs.Usually there are in-
79、country costs added to the FOB price,resulting in a higher final price to the buyer(price mark-ups addressed in detail in subsection on In-country Price Mark-ups).The trend in Exhibit 13 indicates that FOB prices for DAAs exported from India have reduced significantly The Rwanda HCV Elimination Prog
80、ram was launched in December 2018.As part of the program,the Rwanda Ministry of Health committed to eliminate HCV by treating 112,000 patients over a period of five years(2019-2024).The strong political will to scale-up the public program and eliminate HCV helped Rwanda obtain a price of$60 per 12-w

92、 updates for Ukraine,Thailand and Nepal;World Hepatitis Alliance and members for Egypt,Philippines and Cameroon;Aga Khan University for Pakistan.SOF/LDV and SOF/VEL are comparatively expensive regimens based on FOB prices,however,the in-country price trend may differ from one country to another.For
93、example,the in-country price of both SOF/VEL and SOF/LDV is cheaper than the price of SOF+DCV in Vietnam.This is due to the limited number of DCV products available in-country,combined with a large number of locally approved SOF/LDV suppliers ensuring a competitive market for this product.Three DCV
94、products have been registered in Vietnam since Q4 2019,which may lead to a decline in DCV price in the future.In the case of SOF/VEL,Gilead registered its product in Vietnam in 2019 and offered the product at a lower price than that of SOF+DCV.While the global benchmarks for DAA prices have declined
95、,there is significant variability in prices across high-burden countries.Exhibits 14,15,and 16 show that while some countries are accessing DAAs at less than US$40 per patient course for 12 weeks,some are paying more than US$700 per patient course for 12 weeks.There is no standardized global price t
96、hat countries are accessing yet.In-country procurement mostly occurs by either the private sector,or the public sector through tenders or country specific negotiations with suppliers.Egypt,India,and Pakistan have secured very low prices for DAAs across regimens as they are scaling-up public programs
97、 rapidly and moving towards HCV elimination.However,these countries are using locally approved products(that are not WHO PQd/ERP reviewed),which tend to be less expensive.While the prices of non-WHO PQd products are lower,they could indicate lower limits for pricing possible on commoditized WHO PQd

106、tients can pay out-of-pocket for treatment.The Vietnam government formally announced in 2018 that as of 1st January 2019,50 percent of HCV drug costs will be covered by the public health insurance scheme in National and Provincial health facilities a significant step toward sustainable financing.Thi
107、s effort aims to reduce the financial burden to patients,who were facing high out-of-pocket expenses for drugs and diagnostics.Myanmar has initiated a public-private partnership model in three public healthcare facilities across Yangon and Mandalay so that patients diagnosed in both the public and p
108、rivate sectors that are ineligible for free care through the public program,but willing and able to pay out of pocket,have access to WHO PQd/ERP reviewed drugs and lab services at reduced costs.Some other high-burden countries are working toward expanding their HCV programs to increase access to tre
109、atment.For example:Indonesia expanded its national hepatitis program to seven new provinces in 2018 and one new province in 2019.This led to hepatitis treatment being available in 15 out of 34 provinces in Indonesia.In Morocco,the public sector has not yet begun treatment of HCV with DAAs,but is wor
110、king toward it.A significant step forward has been made in Nigeria,building off CHAIs efforts in Nasarawa.In February 2020,the Governor of Nasarawa State announced the governments commitment to scale-up HCV elimination efforts,with the goal to treat 124,000 HCV patients and eliminate HCV by 2024.Thi
111、s Patients accessing treatment through the public sector program in India can access SOF+DCV and SOF/VEL free of charge.Similarly,patients in Rwanda,Myanmar,and Indonesia can access SOF+DCV free of charge through the public sector program.Before Indias launch of its National Program in July 2018 in
112、India,SOF/LDV was available free of charge to patients in Punjab and Haryana.The National Program now recommends the use of SOF with DCV,and SOF/VEL,which are available free of charge to public sector patients.As the national program no longer recommends the use of SOF/LDV,patients would now have to
113、 pay out-of-pocket to access this drug.Similarly,patients pay out-of-pocket for SOF/LDV and SOF/VEL in Myanmar,and Indonesia.In Nigeria,while the drugs are procured through the MoH to facilitate pooled procurements and volume-based pricing benefits,patients pay out-of-pocket for drugs at public sect
114、or hospitals with a minimal price mark-up above the MoH procurement price to cover basic operational costs.In Cambodia,patients co-infected with HIV and HCV on Antiretroviral Therapy(ART)could access SOF and DCV free of charge in the public sector,but paid out-of-pocket for other regimens.However,ac
115、ross countries where drugs are procured by the public program and provided free of charge to patients,procurement is limited by available budget.Hence,there are limited volumes of drugs available free of charge for treatment of public sector patients,which might lead to public sector patients having
116、 to wait to be able to obtain treatment for free.Given the lack of funding for HCV treatment,some high-burden countries have identified alternative ways to reduce price of treatment to patients.For example:Patients receive treatment for HCV in Vietnam37Hepatitis C Market Reportcreates a platform for
117、 possible collaborations and opportunities for market-shaping discussions that can further accelerate the uptake of HCV diagnostics and curative treatments.High-burden middle-income countries such as Brazil and Colombia are still paying high prices for originator DAAs as they are not included in BMS
118、,Gilead,and AbbVies licensing agreements for DAAs.Brazil is procuring SOF/LDV and SOF/VEL from Gilead,and the products are available in the public sector.Colombia has two main insurance schemes:the contributory plan and the subsidized plan.The contributory regime is administered federally and applie
119、s primarily to a cadre of public employees and self-employed workers with contributory capacity.The subsidized(non-contributory)scheme is for informal workers and low-income self-employed workers.Procurement via the PAHO Strategic Fund for Epclusa(originator SOF/VEL at US$4,000 for 12 weeks)has been
120、 limited to procurement by the contributory plan.However,negotiations are in process to allow the subsidized scheme to be linked with the procurement of DAAs via orders to the PAHO Strategic Fund.Georgia is on track to achieve elimination by 2025 and it is estimated that 50 percent of Georgias popul
121、ation of 4 million people has been screened and 44,500 have been cured,as of Mar 2020.Georgias progress so far has been helped by a drug donation from Gilead,strong political backing and information systems,availability of HCV commodities,engagement with civil society,and advocacy.Global benchmark p
122、rices for drugs have declined significantly.However,many countries continue to pay exorbitant prices.LMICs can aim to achieve a price of less than US$100 per patient course for 12 weeks of treatment with WHO PQd SOF and DCV.Countries can also aim for$60 per patient course for 12 weeks of treatment w

165、beginning to implement HCV treatment programs should consider the benefits of rapid scale up,in order to secure affordable pricing of diagnostics and drugs and decrease the need for ongoing costs by eliminating the disease in their countries.In 2016 alone,as per WHO estimates,399,000 patients died d

174、thmDiagnostics algorithmThe WHO recommends a simplified,two-step algorithm to diagnose HCV.First,a blood test to screen for HCV antibodies,using either a RDT or lab-based Immunoassay(IA)is performed.A positive antibody result indicates that the individual has been exposed to the pathogen.Although so
175、meone may have been exposed to a virus,and thereby possess antibodies against the pathogen,their immune system may have successfully cleared the virus from their body.A subsequent RNA nucleic acid VL test is therefore performed for individuals who screen positive for HCV antibodies to confirm active
176、 viremia prior to initiating treatment.All those who test positive for VL should be referred for treatment regardless of disease stage,though the duration of treatment may differ depending on the presence of cirrhosis.When RNA testing is not available,quantification of HCV core Antigen(HCV cAg)by th
177、e lab-based Abbott ARCHITECT platform may serve as confirmation of viremia.Twelve weeks after completing a full treatment course,a VL test is recommended to provide a confirmation of HCV cure.Due to the sensitivity required for SVR12 however,HCV cAg testing is not recommended for confirmation of cur
178、e.The need to maintain VL testing for SVR12 is therefore essential and cannot be replaced solely through the use of quantification of cAg in the diagnostics cascade.In targeting elimination as set by the WHO,testing needs to be cost-effective and streamlined.Screening using rapid antibody tests and
179、confirmation of viremia and cure by VL is therefore the method most often employed in elimination programs.Previous diagnostic guidelines recommended the use of viral load monitoring at week 4 and required the determination of the viral genotype to enable appropriate treatment.The current diagnostic
180、s cascade,recommended by WHO in 2018,is simplified from the previous guidance.Assessing viral load at week 4 has been eliminated due to the lack of evidence correlating viral load at week 4 with those who achieve cure.In addition,when pan-genotypic DAAs are utilized in treatment,genotyping is not re
181、quired,thereby significantly reducing the cost and complexity of testing.47Hepatitis C Market Reportappendix 2:DAA Originators and Licensing AgreementsGilead,BMS,and AbbVie,the originators of key HCV drugs(DAAs),have agreements that allow them to license/sublicense their drugs to generic suppliers,i

187、 years.For adolescents(12-17 years),2018 WHO HCV Treatment Guidelines recommend the use of genotype-specific regimens including SOF/LDV or sofosbuvir with ribavirin(SOF+RBV).Genotyping is required prior to determination of appropriate treatment regimen.Urgent efforts are underway by WHO and partners
188、 to review pharmacokinetic and clinical data on SOF/DCV,the pan-genotypic regimen most widely used among adults,to determine whether it could be recommended for use among adolescents(1217 years).The ability to treat all adolescents 12 years and older with the most widely used and least expensive DAA
189、 regimen is highly desirable.More recent FDA approvals have expanded treatment availability beyond these guidelines:In August 2019 SOF/LDV and SOF+RBV received FDA approval for use down to age of 3 years or older,and in April 2019 G/P was approved for use in ages 1217 years.The FDA approved in March

238、izes.The data has also been used to compare the FOB price with the in-country price to get a sense of the in-country price mark-ups on DAAs.The analysis has excluded orders for less than 50 bottles as these orders are potentially placed by individuals or small pharmacies and have a high price per bo
239、ttle,tending to skew the analysis.While the data provides a directional understanding of treatment uptake across countries,it does have limitations.The data can be incomplete,and does not account for drugs that are manufactured in other countries such as Pakistan and Egypt.Hence,the analyses may not
240、 be complete or an accurate representation of the global DAA market.The quality of the product is not included(i.e.SRA approved/WHO PQd/ERP reviewed vs.locally approved product),hence,higher quality product typically sold at higher prices may skew prices upward or large number of locally approved pr
241、oducts may skew prices downward.CHAIS COUNTRY TEAMS,GLOBAL PARTNERS AND STAKEHOLDERSThe absence of public diagnostics databases containing information such as pricing and test volumes meant that CHAI was entirely dependent on global partners and CHAI country teams for testing information.CHAI is gra
242、teful to its global partners including Treatment Action Group,FIND,Coalition PLUS,World Hepatitis Alliance,Treat ASIA/amfAR for providing in-country information on prices and product registered in country for countries where CHAI does not have an HCV program.Our peers from these organizations shared
243、 the in-country data that they had available through primary research and their understanding of the market.In some cases,they connected us with their relevant individuals in their network who are based in-country and would have the relevant information available.appendix 8:Data SourcesCHAI has reli
244、ed upon three primary data sources for the analysis on the report.INDIA IMPORT EXPORT DATAThe India Import Export Data provides details on the volumes and prices of drugs exported from India to the rest of the world.As shown in Exhibit 23 below,the data has relevant details on date of export,importe
245、r name,exporter name,the product exported and the country to which it was exported,size of the export order,and the freight on board price.FOB prices are the prices at which the supplier exports the drug from the country.These prices do not include shipping,customs,storage and distributor-associated
246、 costs.Usually there are in-country costs added to the FOB price,resulting in a higher final price to the buyer.61Hepatitis C Market ReportData for CHAI program countries including India,Rwanda,Nigeria,Cambodia,Indonesia,Vietnam,Myanmar and Ethiopia was sourced from CHAI program country teams.The co
247、untry teams were supported by their MoH counterparts in obtaining the relevant information.The in-country prices have been used to compare prices across high-burden countries for key DAAs.These prices have also been used to compare the FOB price with the final in-country price in public/private sect
248、or.The approach has its limitations in understanding the DAA prices in countries that do not have a public program.This is due to the variability of prices in the private sector and lack of perfect knowledge on the range of prices offered across pharmacies in the private sector.GENERIC DRUG SUPPLIERSCHAI gathered information on in-country registration status of WHO PQd/ERP reviewed generic DAAs from suppliers including Hetero,Mylan,and Cipla.62Hepatitis C Market Report
