Understanding the relevance of the Orphan Drug-Regulation within AMNOG for patient care

Thursday, February 6, 2025
Orphan Drug-Regulation

With the evolution of AMNOG-regulations, Germany has emerged as one of the most complex healthcare markets globally from a pricing and market access (P&MA) perspective. While Orphan Drugs (ODs) currently receive certain protections under the AMNOG framework, ongoing health policy debates are raising questions about the potential restriction or elimination of these OD-specific privileges. What would such changes mean for the German healthcare market and the accessibility of these critical therapies?

Our latest report, Relevance of the Orphan Drug-Regulation within AMNOG for Patient Care, reveals that if Germany’s OD-specific protections under AMNOG were removed, more than half of the ODs would face a very high to maximum risk of market withdrawal due to their inability to demonstrate an added benefit, exposing them to dramatic price reductions.


In this episode of our Simon-Kucher Better Market Access webinar series, we will present the findings from our retrospective market simulation analyzing the impact of a hypothetical abolition of this OD-regulation on the risk of market withdrawal of these innovative therapies. In addition, we will highlight important strategic implications for pharma companies to plan and optimize P&MA for their ODs in Germany.

This webinar will explore:

  • Current OD-regulation landscape within AMNOG and its vital role for P&MA
  • Results of a P&MA simulation for the German OD-market without OD-regulation
  • Resulting risk of market withdrawals across different therapeutic areas
  • Strategic recommendations to optimize P&MA success for ODs in Germany

By attending, you will gain actionable insights to prepare your organization for potential regulatory shifts in the P&MA environment for ODs and support patient access to these essential therapies.
