Brian Corvino, a managing director at Deloitte Consulting, spoke at the AMCP Nexus 2020 virtual meeting about managing high costs of cell and gene therapies. He said, "We have the prospect of therapies that are truly curative in nature... These are therapies with a single administration, a high up-front acquisition cost, and often resource-intensive administration.” Another concern is the “uncertainty around clinical safety and effectiveness” of these new therapies “due to limitations in study design and outcome measures” as well as "the size and duration of clinical trials and the risk of high unrecoverable cost.”
