A pricing standoff between Pfizer Inc. and the Australian government has left women with advanced breast cancer facing tens of thousands of dollars in out-of-pocket costs, underscoring a growing global trend in which access to life-extending drugs is increasingly being shaped by pricing negotiations rather than clinical merit.

The study challenges a longstanding assumption in optical engineering that highly ordered, periodic structures are required to precisely control light.
