UNASSIGNED: A descriptive study was conducted using data on new drug approvals accessed from the Central Drugs Standard Control Organization website. The top ten causes of mortality and morbidity in India from 2015 to 2019 were identified from the Global Burden of Diseases database. Descriptive statistics were used to compare the drug approvals and the leading diseases.
UNASSIGNED: One hundred twenty-six drugs were approved during the study period. Antineoplastic drugs constituted 19.84% of the approvals, antimicrobials 18.25%, and cardiovascular drugs 9.52%. Ischemic heart disease and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease were the two leading causes of morbidity and mortality. Diarrheal diseases, lower respiratory tract infection, and drug-susceptible tuberculosis were among the top ten causes. Ten antibacterials, including four antitubercular drugs, were approved during this period. Two drugs were approved for rare diseases.
UNASSIGNED: Our study showed that the drugs approved were largely in line with the prevalent disease burden, and there was no significant discordance observed. Some diseases, such as ischemic stroke/intracranial hemorrhage, require further efforts in bringing forth newer pharmacotherapy options.
使用从中央药物标准控制组织网站访问的新药批准数据进行了描述性研究。从全球疾病负担数据库中确定了2015年至2019年印度十大死亡和发病原因。描述性统计用于比较药物批准和主要疾病。
■在研究期间批准了126种药物。抗肿瘤药物占批准的19.84%,抗菌药物18.25%,和心血管药物9.52%。缺血性心脏病和慢性阻塞性肺疾病是发病率和死亡率的两个主要原因。腹泻病,下呼吸道感染,药物敏感结核病是十大原因之一。十种抗菌药物,包括四种抗结核药物,在此期间获得批准。两种药物被批准用于罕见疾病。
我们的研究表明,批准的药物在很大程度上符合普遍的疾病负担,并且没有观察到明显的不一致。一些疾病,如缺血性卒中/颅内出血,需要进一步努力提出新的药物治疗方案。
