Cost-effectiveness of Evolocumab in Patients With High Cardiovascular Risk in Spain
چکیده انگلیسی

PurposeOur objective was to assess the cost-effectiveness of evolocumab in patients at high risk of cardiovascular (CV) events from the Spanish National Health System perspective.MethodsA Markov model was used to assess the cost-effectiveness (incremental [∆] cost per ∆ quality-adjusted life-year [QALY]; or cost utility) of evolocumab plus standard of care (SoC; statins) versus SoC, assuming lifetime treatment. Cohorts with baseline LDL-C >100 mg/dL and familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) or CV event history (secondary prevention [SP]) were considered. Lifetime CV event rates were predicted either (1) using risk equations considering local risk factors (Spanish Familial Hypercholesterolemia Cohort Study) adjusted to reflect the increased risk of FH patients or (2) using CV event rates from local registries (Information System for the Development of Research in Primary Care) for SP patients. LDL-C relative reductions from evolocumab trials (Evolocumab 140 mg Q2W (bi-weekly) and 420 mg QM (monthly)) were converted into CV event reductions using rate ratios per millimole per liter (mmol/L; 38.67 mg/dL) from a meta-analysis of statin trials (Cholesterol Treatment Trialists' Collaboration).FindingsPredicted 10-year/lifetime CV risks were 50%/95% (FH) and 62%/82% (SP) for SoC and 27%/83% (FH) and 44%/69% (SP) for evolocumab plus SoC. Predicted 10-year/lifetime major CV event risks were 42%/86% (FH) and 47%/67% (SP) for SoC and 21%/68% (FH) and 31%/52% (SP) for evolocumab plus SoC. Predicted per patient-year rates of non-fatal/fatal CV events were 2.2/0.8 (FH) and 1.1/0.6 (SP) for SoC and 1.2/0.6 (FH) and 0.7/0.5 (SP) for evolocumab plus SoC. Predicted CV event reductions per mmol/L were 17% (FH) and 15% (SP). Evolocumab treatment was associated with increased QALYs and costs compared with SoC (FH: ∆cost, €65,369; ∆QALY, 2.12; incremental cost-effectiveness ratio [ICER], €30,893; SP: ∆cost, €42,266; ∆QALY, 0.93; ICER, €45,340).ImplicationsEvolocumab plus to SoC may provide a cost-effective option for LDL-C lowering in FH and SP patients in Spain.
