harmacoeconomic feasibility of using the drug upadacitinib in patients with rheumatoid arthritis in the healthcare system of the Russian Federation
Abstract
Aim. To assess the pharmacoeconomic feasibility of including the drug upadacitinib in restrictive lists and government funding programs to provide patients with rheumatoid arthritis.Materials and methods. Study Design — Retrospective Analysisof Literary Data. Pharmacoeconomic analysis methods — indirect comparison, clinical-economic analysis (cost-effectiveness analysis) using sensitivity analysis; budget impact analysis using sensitivity analysis. Data on the effectiveness of the analyzed drugs are taken from publications on clinical studies of the compared drugs; on the cost of drugs — the state register of marginal selling prices, data of the manufacturer’s company.Results. According to the results of indirect comparison, with respect to the frequency of achievement of the DAS28 test (CRP) <2.6, the effectiveness of the preparations tofacitinib and baricitinib does not significantly differ — OR = 1.275 (0.842; 1.931). At the same time, the preparation upadacitinib allows to achieve this indicator reliably more effective than the baricitinib — OR = 1.529 (1.021; 2.292) and tofacitinib — OR = 1.95 (1.285; 2.960). Costs for the use of upadacitinib against the background of methotrexate for 52 weeks will amount to 654 983.88 rubles, and will require 4.7 % less costs than the use of tofacitinib or baricitinib against the background of the use of methotrexate (687 217.53 rubles). In an indirect comparison of upadacitinib-baricitinib through the general comparator adalimumab, the effectiveness of upadacitinib with respect to the frequency of achievement of DAS28-CRP <2.6 turned out to be higher than baricitinib per 32.3 %. With indirect comparison of upadacitinib-tofacitinib under the same conditions, the efficiency of upadacitinib is 57.7 % higher than that of tofacitinib. Analysis of the impact on the budget showed that with the inclusion of the drug upadacitinib in the lists of VED and ONLS and a gradual increase in the proportion of patients, receiving upadacitinib instead of tofacitinib and baricitinib in the 1st year before 15 %, in the 2nd year — 30 %, in the 3rd year — 45 % for the group of 2.318 patients for 3 years, the reduction in the budget burden will be 1.4 % or 62.8 million rubles. With the provision of upadacitinib, 100 % of patients from the first year, the budget burden for 3 years will decrease by 4.7 % or 213.1 million rubles in comparison with the current regime.Conclusion. tte drug upadacitinib at a lower course cost has greater effectiveness in achieving clinical remission according to the indicator DAS28-CRP (<2.6), and therefore its use in the conditions of the healthcare system of the Russian Federation for the treatment of patients with rheumatoid arthritis is pharmacoeconomic and expedient.
