Abstract


 CADTH reimbursement reviews are comprehensive assessments of the clinical effectiveness and cost-effectiveness, as well as patient and clinician perspectives, of a drug or drug class.
 The assessments inform non-binding recommendations that help guide the reimbursement decisions of Canada's federal, provincial, and territorial governments, with the exception of Quebec.
 This review assesses Pegvaliase (Palynziq), pre-filled syringes: 2.5 mg/0.5 mL (5 mg/mL), 10 mg/0.5 mL (20 mg/mL), 20 mg/mL, solution for subcutaneous injection.
 Indication: Palynziq (pegvaliase injection) is indicated to reduce blood phenylalanine concentrations in patients with phenylketonuria aged 16 years and older who have inadequate blood phenylalanine control (blood phenylalanine levels greater than 600 µmol/L) despite dietary management.
