\mean there's no added benefit,” lead author Wieseler said. \Either we have no studies or have studies not good enough. ” Wieseler and her co-authors work for a German institute which evaluates new treatments and advises on whether the country's health care system should pay a premium ( 补贴)for them. Such organizations, known as health technology assessment ( HTA ) agencies, work a little differently in the US, says Sean Tunis, a researcher in Baltimore : \agencies will require that hospitals try the cheaper drug first. ”
Germany’s HTA demands trials to prove that a new treatment beats the existing standard. This isn't always practical. For one thing, such studies can be expensive and time-consuming, with no guarantee of success. Secondly, it can discourage companies from attempting to develop new alternatives. This is already happening. Drug developers are increasingly focused on areas where there are no good treatments to compete with, such as rare diseases.
This lack of meaningful data to guide patients is a major point of Wieseler's paper. With accelerated approval, there are more products approved, with a greater amount of uncertainty about risks and benefits. But there are other solutions besides drug trials. One idea is to require postmarket studies to track the effectiveness of newly approved drugs——a step too often neglected.
12. What message does the recent report convey?
A. Improved drugs have advantages over old ones. B. The approval processes for new drugs are too fast. C. Many new drugs have no improved advantages. D. Before 2017 no improvement was made to drugs.
13. What will US HTA agencies do when no advantage is found in new drugs?
A. Get hospitals to use the cheaper drugs. B. Remove government premium on them. C. Arrange financial support for the patients. D. Put new drugs on further trials and studies.
14. What's the disadvantage of Germany's HTA trial demands?
A. Making drug companies think of illegal ways to cut cost. B. Holding companies back from improving existing drugs. C. Getting patients to depend on the government for support. D. Pushing companies to try alternatives for existing drugs. 15. What is the best title for the text?
A. The Advantage of Existing Drugs C. People's Preference for New or Old Drugs
B. Misunderstanding of New and Old Drugs D. A Dilemma with New Drug Alternatives
