			<title>NICE publishes draft guidance on belimumab for systemic lupus erythematosus</title>
			<description><![CDATA[The National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) has today (27 April) published final draft guidance on the use of belimumab (Benlysta) for treating systemic lupus erythematosus. In the draft guidance, belimumab is not recommended within its licensed indication as add-on therapy in adult patients with active autoantibody-positive systemic lupus erythematosus who have a high degree of disease activity despite the individual receiving standard therapy.]]></description>

			<title>Two breast cancer drugs not recommended in latest draft guidance</title>
			<description><![CDATA[In its final draft guidance, the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) does not recommend lapatinib (Tyverb, GlaxoSmithKline) or trastuzumab (Herceptin, Roche) with aromatase inhibitors for a particular type and stage of breast cancer. This is because it is unclear how much either drug can improve overall survival compared to existing treatments and they do not appear to represent value for money for the NHS.]]></description>
