The third attempt at reimbursement for Vyndamax, a new drug for transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy, has been made by its company.

According to industry sources, Pfizer Korea had again applied for the insurance reimbursement of its new drug that is indicated for the treatment of transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM). This is the company¡¯s third attempt.

Earlier last year, Pfizer failed to first designate Vyndamax as an essential medicine. In the first half of the same year, the company made the second attempt at reimbursement using the Risk-sharing Agreement but failed again.

With perseverance, the company made its third attempt in 2022.
