Ekrem Unal: Navigating the Budget Impact of Next-Generation Hemophilia Therapies in Turkey
Ekrem Unal, Professor of Pediatric Hematology Oncology and Pediatric HSCT at Hasan Kalyoncu University, Medical Point Hospital, Gaziantep, Turkey, shared on LinkedIn about a recent article he and his colleagues co-authored, published in Clinical and Applied Thrombosis/Hemostasis, adding:
”We are moving from lifelong intravenous infusions to single-dose gene therapies and seamless subcutaneous agents in hemophilia care.
But as the therapeutic landscape shifts, how prepared are developing economies to absorb the heavy budget impact of these high-value innovations?
Our latest comprehensive review, now published in Clinical and Applied Thrombosis/Hemostasis (SCIE, Impact Factor: 3.2, Q2 in Hematology), analyzes the expanding real-world experience, access barriers, and future opportunities in regions like Türkiye and beyond.
Read our full paper to explore the delicate balance between medical breakthroughs and healthcare sustainability.”
