29 April 2013

The Department of Health asked the Institute to conduct an appraisal of mipomersen for the prevention of cardiovascular events in people with homozygous or severe heterozygous familial hypercholesterolaemia and to provide guidance on its use to the NHS in England and Wales.

The Institute has noted that the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) recently re-examined its initial negative opinion for mipomersen and has confirmed the refusal of the marketing authorisation.

NICE has therefore decided to suspend this appraisal indefinitely.

As this topic has been referred to the Institute we will continue to monitor any developments and will update this webpage if the situation changes.

5 July 2012

The manufacturer of mipomersen has informed NICE that they will not provide an evidence submission for this appraisal. NICE has therefore suspended this appraisal.
