Companies say competition law stops them coordinating on combination trials and sharing failure data. A clear legal safe harbour for defined pro-patient collaborations would remove that excuse.
Competition authorities issue guidance or a block exemption, as the EU has for research and development agreements and as the US did for certain healthcare collaborations, that explicitly protects defined oncology collaborations: joint combination trials, sharing of safety and negative-efficacy data, pooled control arms, pre-competitive target validation and standard combination agreements, subject to transparency conditions (registration of the collaboration, publication of results). Companies frequently cite antitrust uncertainty as a reason not to share data or coordinate trials; whether that is a real barrier or a convenient one, a safe harbour removes it and lets other collaboration proposals proceed.
