New Iqvia Institute Report Warns Of Access Disparities For Car T-Cell Therapy Across Europe

NEW IQVIA INSTITUTE REPORT WARNS OF ACCESS DISPARITIES FORCAR T-CELL THERAPY ACROSS EUROPEStockley Park, UK – 23 April 2025 – A new report reveals disparities in chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy delivery across Europe, with healthcare system utilisation rates of the therapy as low as 11% for eligible patients. The independent research ‘Achieving CAR T-Cell Therapy Health System Readiness: An assessment of barriers and opportunities’ by the IQVIA Institute for Human Data Science, funded by Gilead and Kite, highlights challenges across countries that can lead to uneven access to CAR T-cell therapy. The report, which assessed seven countries (Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, the United Kingdom), found that factors such as complex referral pathways, limited treatment centers and reimbursement challenges are hindering access to this potentially life-saving treatment for eligible patients."CAR T-cell therapy, a potentially curative treatment that has been available since 2017, has transformed the lives of thousands of people worldwide," says Murray Aitken, Executive Director, IQVIA Institute for Human Data Science. "Despite the progress, access barriers still remain for patients eligible for CAR T-cell therapy, leading to worrying inequities in care across Europe. The Institute’s report stresses the need for policy action to address these disparities, help people access this innovative treatment and improve patient outcomes."The IQVIA Institute shares key policy recommendations to support equitable patient access across healthcare systems. These include:1Establish standardised governance systems to coordinate care between referring and treating centres: Patient referrals continue to be a major challenge across countries, with 61% of referring physicians in Spain citing this as a main barrier to treatment.Develop plans to regularly monitor progress and timely access to CAR T-cell therapy: Long-term assessment and monitoring are required to address low utilisation rates across countries, with France delivering the highest percentage of eligible patients receiving treatment at only 30%.Long-term assessment and monitoring are required to address low utilisation rates across countries, with France delivering the highest percentage of eligible patients receiving treatment at only 30%
