Payers want the paper you haven't published yet.

After a readout, one locked dataset feeds the top-line abstract, the clinical study report, the manuscript, the Module 2 summaries and the payer dossier. Silogram links the numbers in all of them to the same code and commit, so a mid-sized team can move faster without the numbers drifting apart.

Most papers land after the decisions that need them.

8 months

median from an oncology results press release to the full paper, at the 20 largest oncology companies (2018–2022).7

2.1 years

median from trial completion to publication, across 165,135 trials.8

36%

of FDA cancer drug approvals in 2010–2014 had no peer-reviewed efficacy paper within 30 days of approval.15

4.2 months

median from FDA approval to US commercial payer coverage decisions for new cancer drugs.9

Abstracts and data on file only go so far.

Formulary, guideline, compendium and HTA reviews each prefer, or require, peer-reviewed evidence.

Formulary dossiers

The AMCP Format prefers studies published in peer-reviewed journals. Congress abstracts, posters and data on file are what a dossier falls back on until the paper exists.1

P&T committees

Medicare Part D guidance bases P&T decisions on scientific evidence, including peer-reviewed literature and clinical guidelines.2

NCCN Category 1

A Category 1 recommendation needs a peer-reviewed publication. Outside submissions are due 28 days before the panel's annual meeting.34

Off-label use in Medicare

Anticancer uses are medically accepted when listed in a recognized compendium or supported by peer-reviewed articles in the 26 journals CMS has named. At least one Medicare contractor asks for full articles, not abstracts.5

ICER reviews

Reviews are timed to land near approval, and a sponsor's unpublished data are redacted from the public report until they are published or presented, or 12 months pass.6

EU joint clinical assessment

Since January 2025, new cancer medicines go through a joint assessment. The dossier is due within 100 days of the scope and includes the CSRs, protocols and SAPs, plus program code and output for analyses a standard method can't describe.1011

Public precedent

Daraxonrasib: a full paper 48 days after topline.

Revolution Medicines' RAS(ON) inhibitor in previously treated metastatic pancreatic cancer had a peer-reviewed paper before FDA accepted its NDA, so payers and guideline panels had published evidence from launch.121314

  1. Topline results

    RASolute 302: median overall survival 13.2 vs 6.7 months in the overall population.

  2. ASCO plenary and NEJM

    Presented and published the same day.

    48 days after topline
  3. NDA accepted

    Under a Commissioner's National Priority Voucher, with real-time oncology review.

  4. FDA approval

    Approved as Rasonque, with the paper already in print.

    87 days after the paper

Typical: results press release to full paper (median)about 8 months

Daraxonrasib: topline to NEJM48 days

Public precedent from company filings, PubMed and FDA reports; Revolution Medicines has no affiliation with Silogram. An ASCO plenary with a same-day NEJM paper is an exceptional best case. Silogram aims to help mid-sized teams shorten the internal drafting and checking that make up much of the usual gap.

Every document from the same locked analysis.

One source for the whole burst

Top-line abstract, CSR to ICH E3, manuscript, CTD Module 2 summaries and payer dossiers draw on the same verified values. A number changes once and every document shows it.

A shorter internal loop

Methods drafted from the code, results linked to outputs, a number audit before every review round, and your house style learned from past papers.

Dates tied to access

Link each document to the decision it supports, such as an NCCN submission, a formulary review or a joint assessment, and see the likely date and the value of a week.

How the access plan works

Code and output, ready for HTA

Every value links to the program and commit that produced it, and reproduction from code shows the outputs regenerate: what a joint assessment dossier asks for when an analysis isn't a standard method.
