Popis: The analysis of benefit and risk is an important aspect of decision-making throughout the drug lifecycle. In this work, the use of a benefit-risk analysis approach to support decision-making was explored. The proposed approach builds on the qualitative FDA approach to include a more explicit analysis based on international standards and guidance that enables aggregation and comparison of benefit and risk on a common basis and a lifecycle focus. The approach is demonstrated on six decisions over the lifecycle (e.g. accelerated approval, withdrawal, traditional approval) using two case studies: natalizumab for multiple sclerosis and bedaquiline for multi-drug resistant tuberculosis.
