An interesting article that provides the history and examines the success of the Priority Review Voucher program.
The author notes that though the value of the voucher has increased from $67.5 million to $350 million, the prospect of payment of this size may be insufficient for large pharmaceutical manufacturers accustomed to substantially higher revenues. Medicines Development however, as a not for profit drug development company dedicated to the development of affordable medicines and vaccines, views this as a significant amount of funding.
