Abstract

 CADTH recommends that Beqvez be reimbursed by public drug plans for the treatment of adults with moderately severe to severe hemophilia B (congenital factor IX deficiency) who are negative for neutralizing antibodies to variant adeno-associated virus (AAV) serotype Rh74 , if certain conditions are met.
 Beqvez should only be covered to treat adult patients (aged 18 years or older) with circulating coagulation factor IX (FIX:C) activity of 2% or less and bleeding that requires ongoing prophylactic treatment. Beqvez should not be covered if the patient has FIX inhibitors or has previously received gene therapy for hemophilia B.
 Beqvez should only be reimbursed if prescribed by specialists who have expertise in treating hemophilia B and if the cost of Beqvez is reduced. Beqvez is a 1-time therapy.
