Health-related quality of life (HRQoL) is difficult to measure in rare diseases, especially in paediatric populations, yet capturing HRQoL is critical to evaluating treatment, including the cost-effectiveness of treatments. Given the ultra-rare nature of AADC deficiency indirect elicitation of HRQoL data through proxy caregiver/parent ratings is not feasible. In these circumstances, HRQoL data may be derived through vignette studies using the general population. The aim of the study was to generate health utility values specific for France for AADC deficiency using vignettes. Link to the article
