The study aim was to evaluate the cost effectiveness and budget impact of siponimod compared interferon beta-1a for adult patients with secondary progressive multiple sclerosis (SPMS) active disease, from a Swiss health insurance perspective. We conducted an analysis using Markov cohort model cycle length 1 year, life-long time horizon, discount rate 3% outcomes. used matching-adjusted indirect comparison estimate clinical outcomes data EXPAND randomised controlled trial vs placebo Nordic...

Identification of the phenotypic transition from relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS) to secondary progressive (SPMS) is often delayed due disease complexity and an unwillingness withdraw RRMS disease-modifying therapies (DMTs), driven by limited SPMS treatment options. Despite paucity clinical evidence for efficacy in patients with SPMS, DMTs licensed are frequently continued into early stages SPMS. The cost-effectiveness oral siponimod, active DMT, versus or infused was...

Aim: The costs and consequences of initial delayed ofatumumab treatment were evaluated in relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis with active disease Canada. Materials & methods: A Markov cohort model was used (10-year horizon, annual cycle length, 1.5% discounting). Scenario analyses examined as first-line versus 3 5 years following switch from commonly therapies. Results: Ofatumumab resulted improvements clinical outcomes (relapses progression) productivity (employment full-time work),...

To evaluate the cost-effectiveness of fingolimod versus interferon (IFN)-β1a at a dose 30 μg per week for treatment relapsing pediatric-onset multiple sclerosis (POMS) in Canada.A discrete-time Markov model was developed to compare with IFN β-1a over time horizon two years representing patients followed up mean age 18 from Canadian health care system perspective. Twenty-one states based on Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) were considered: EDSS 0‒9 (MS), secondary progressive MS, and...
