The Myasthenia Alliance Australia (MAA) Board invite the Myasthenia community of Australia to join the following webinar.
The Board thanks Alexion for facilitating this opportunity to understand more about the processes involved in achieving new treatment options.
You are invited to a Zoom webinar on Friday 11 October at 12pm (daylight saving time) to hear from the Alexion team about the recent Pharmaceutical Benefits Advisory Committee (PBAC) Submission outcome and to learn a bit more about the process itself.
Recently the Pharmaceutical Benefits Advisory Committee (PBAC) announced the outcome of their July Meeting. The MG community were keenly waiting to hear the PBAC Outcomes as two new medications, Raviluzimab and Zilucoplan, had been reviewed. Regrettably both medications received a ”Not Recommended” verdict. The PBAC did recognise the high clinical need for effective therapies for gMG.
