Information is not collected centrally on the number of people prescribed medicines or the medical condition being treated.<\/p>

Some data is available for the administration of vedolizumab however this data does not correspond to patient numbers nor can it be linked to the treatment of specific diseases. Some information on cost is also available but this is the cost of the medicines at NHS list price and not necessarily the price that hospitals paid.<\/p>

In guidance published in August 2015, the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) advised that vedolizumab is the recommended treatment for adults with moderate to severe Crohn\u2019s disease if a type of treatment called a tumour necrosis factor alpha inhibitor is not suitable or has not worked well enough. NICE also recommend vedolizumab as a possible treatment for adults with moderate to severe ulcerative colitis in separate guidance published on 5 June 2015.<\/p>

In both cases, people should be able to have vedolizumab until it stops working, or surgery is needed, or for 12 months after starting it, whichever is shorter. Their condition should be assessed 12 months after they started taking vedolizumab. If they still have symptoms but it is clear that the treatment is helping, they can continue to have the drug. If they no longer have symptoms, treatment can be stopped, and later restarted if their symptoms return. Drugs recommended by NICE should be available on the NHS within three months of the technology appraisal guidance being issued.<\/p>

NICE has set out best practice in the diagnosis, treatment care and support of patients with Crohn\u2019s diseases and ulcerative colitis in its guidance Crohn\u2019s Disease Management in Adults, Children and Young People<\/em> in October 2012, and Ulcerative Colitis<\/em> Management in Adults, Children and Young People<\/em> , published in June 2013. Treatment for both Crohn\u2019s disease and ulcerative colitis is largely directed at symptom relief to improve quality of life, rather than cure. Management options include drug therapy, dietary and lifestyle advice and, in severe or chronic active disease, surgery.<\/p>

The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) is the independent body which makes decisions on the clinical and cost effectiveness of products based on a thorough assessment of the best available evidence and in consultation with stakeholders. National Health Service commissioners are required to fund drugs and treatments recommended by NICE technology appraisals.<\/p>

Bendamustine (Levact) is recommended by NICE as a possible treatment for some people with chronic lymphocytic leukaemia of Binet stage B or C.<\/p>

NICE is currently appraising ibrutinib (Imbruvica) for the treatment of (i) chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (NICE\u2019s final guidance is expected in June 2016) and (ii) mantle cell, relapsed, refractory lymphoma (NICE\u2019s final guidance is expected in December 2016).<\/p>

A number of operational standards related to access and waiting times have been introduced or amended since May 2010. All the changes were based on recommendations from clinical experts.<\/p>

As part of our response to the Independent Cancer Taskforce\u2019s report, we have announced our commitment that \u2013 by 2020 \u2013 95% of National Health Service patients will be given a definitive cancer diagnosis or the all clear within 28 days of being referred by a general practitioner. This will be underpinned by investment - expected to be £300 million more in diagnostics a year by 2020.<\/p>

<\/strong><\/p>

We are also introducing the first waiting times standards specifically for mental health so that, from April 2016:<\/p>

- 75% of people will be referred to the Improving Access to Psychological Therapies programme within six weeks, with 95% of people being referred within 18 weeks; and<\/p>

- 50% of people experiencing a first episode of psychosis will be treated within two weeks.<\/p>

The Government has protected the funding the National Health Service receives and increased the Department\u2019s budget in real terms year on year. There is no plan to change this, fulfilling the Government\u2019s manifesto commitment. By 2020-21, the Government will increase funding for the NHS by £10 billion a year in real terms compared to 2014-15 to support the implementation of the NHS\u2019s own plan - the NHS Five Year Forward View - to transform services across the country.<\/p>
