Plastic Surgery News...

  • In a BMJ editorial, the authors from Imperial College write that despite evidence for the effectiveness of multitargeting kinase inhibitors in treating renal cell cancer, their availability in the UK has lagged behind that in the US because of the time taken to obtain regulatory approval. They note that renal cell cancer is a relatively unusual tumour that is diagnosed in about 2500 people each year in the UK and accounts for less than 1% of deaths from malignant disease. The evidence for bevacizumab, lapatinib, temsirolimus, sunitininb and sorafenib are then reviewed, along with a discussion about the possibility of combining these agents and using them with cytokines. They conclude “potentially there is real hope for patients with kidney cancer, but when will hope translate into the reality of treatment being available in the UK?” They point out that sunitinib was approved by the FDA in January 2007, in the same month that the trials were published; sunitinib and sorafenib were licensed by the European Medicines Agency in July 2006. They argue that patients in the UK should not have to wait another two years until NICE approves use of such treatments.
  • In this editorial, the author discusses the use of observational data in determination of drug safety, and how it is “by no means a substitute for evidence from randomised controlled trials”. He states that observational studies alone cannot provide reliable estimates of treatment effects for a number of reasons, which he goes on to discuss. The author illustrates his arguments with the recent example of aprotinin, the UK marketing authorisations of which were recently suspended following preliminary safety findings findings (see link above to view related NeLM report). He notes that the BART trial may well not have been halted if it were not for the previous observational study indicating an increased risk associated with aprotinin – and that this happened despite a systematic review of randomised trials which found no increased risks associated with treatment. The author concludes that “only properly randomised trials can provide truly reliable evidence on adverse events, just as these are the only source of convincing data on drug efficacy. Observational studies may provide some limited reassurance that a drug is safe, or they may provide an early indication of a problem, but by design they cannot provide reliable evidence on questions of drug safety”.
