● Zolgensma is a one-time gene therapy treatment designed to
last for a lifetime.
● Zolgensma is approved for infants with Type 1 SMA.
● Novartis has sought to offset the sticker shock by offering
flexible payment models, such as spreading the payment over
five years.
● This approach has secured favorable coverage policies for
Zolgensma covering about 97% of patients on commercial
insurance and 86% on Medicaid.
● Long-term data shows that Zolgensma is producing lasting
effects, with all 10 phase 1 trial patients maintaining their
previously achieved milestones.
