When Orphan Disease Value Was Difficult to Demonstrate, We Built a Defensible Narrative.
THE CHALLENGE
Demonstrating Value in a Small, Complex Rare Disease Population
A pharmaceutical company sought to shape the scientific and value story for a novel orphan disease product in a rare genetic disorder of copper transport and metabolism.
With a small patient population of only approximately 3,000 diagnosed individuals in the United States, it was challenging to demonstrate the economic burden of disease and the potential value and cost impact of the treatment to payers.
THE BREAKTHROUGH
Translating Limited and Fragmented Data into a Defensible Value Narrative
Using our Breakthrough Process, powered by 3D Science, BGBx identified that the challenge was not a lack of data, but the need to integrate and translate fragmented scientific evidence into a cohesive and credible value story.
The strategy centered on building a unified scientific and value foundation, leveraging both published data and real-world insights to clearly articulate disease burden, treatment impact, and economic considerations for payer decision-making.
The Solution
- Scientific platform development to synthesize available evidence
- Centers of Excellence data integration to demonstrate real-world relevance
- Payer value proposition development to communicate disease burden and treatment impact
- AMCP dossier development to support payer evaluation and reimbursement decision-making
THE RESULTS
Established a Defensible Value Narrative to Support Coverage and Reimbursement Decisions
The integrated scientific and value platform enabled a clear, structured narrative to support payer evaluation and reimbursement discussions. Scientific and value evidence were consolidated into a single platform, Centers of Excellence data extended the narrative beyond published evidence, and comprehensive materials were developed to support payer review.
