EU Joint Clinical Assessment

With over a decade of experience delivering HTA submissions, value materials and evidence generation activities fully in-house, our talented team are ready to support our clients with their EU JCA activities.

 

Preparation for EU JCA and JSC is Key to Ensure Optimal Readiness

The Health Technology Assessment (HTA) community in Europe are continuing to adjust to the introduction of the Joint Clinical Assessment (JCA) for oncology products and advanced medicinal products, and preparing for its further expansion to high-risk medical devices and in vitro diagnostic medical devices (IVDs) in 2026, orphan products in 2028 and all new medicinal products, including vaccines, in 2030.

We have a track record of forming long-term partnerships with our clients, from early-stage strategic planning through to end-stage reimbursement submission support. Our experience in European market access includes Scientific Advice, national and pan-national reimbursement dossiers, including BeNeLuxAIr and EUnetHTA, and global- and European-focussed value dossiers. Drawing on our experience, and in collaboration with our Evidence Development teams, we are proud of our experience supporting our clients to prepare for JCA, including supporting one of the first products selected for EU Joint Scientific Consultation.

Our dedicated EU JCA Taskforce have been rolling out trainings across the company to up-skill teams and ensure we are on top of the latest communications regarding the implementation of the JCA

Our teams across Value and Access and Evidence Development continue to reflect on the key challenges and opportunities the JCA brings. Our recent articles can be found below

We appreciate that, despite it having begun, a lot remains unknown around how EU JCA will work in practice, and how it will develop and change as it continues its roll out. We aim to understand our clients’ questions and concerns around EU JCA, and use these as focus areas for our research
