Pharmacoeconomic evaluation of serplulimab combined with chemotherapy regimens for the first-line treatment of extensive-stage small-cell lung cancer
To evaluate the economics of serplulimab combined with chemotherapy regimens for the first-line treatment of extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC) from the perspective of health system in China.
METHODS
2
A partitioned survival model was constructed based on the ASTRUM-005 clinical trial and related literature data, with a model simulation time frame of 10 years and a 3-week cycle, and both cost and utility values were discounted using a 5% discount rate. The quality-adjusted life year (QALY) was used as a model output indicator and the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER) was calculated to evaluate the economics of serplulimab combined with chemotherapy regimens (serplulimab group) versus chemotherapy alone regimens (chemotherapy alone group) for the first-line treatment of ES-SCLC. One-way sensitivity analysis and probabilistic sensitivity analysis were used to verify the robustness of the results of the base-case analysis and to conduct a scenario analysis for the serplulimab patient assistance program.
RESULTS
2
The results of the base-case analysis showed that compared with chemotherapy alone group, ICER of serplulimab group was 758 690.27 yuan/QALY, which was higher than 3 times China’s per capita gross domestic product (GDP) in 2022 as the willingness-to-pay (WTP) threshold. The results of the scenario analysis showed that compared with chemotherapy alone group, the ICER of serplulimab group was 172 275.74 yuan/QALY, which was below above WTP threshold. The one-way sensitivity analysis showed that the progress-free survival utility value, serplulimab price and so on had a significant impact on the model results. The results of the probabilistic sensitivity analysis showed that the probability of the serplulimab group being economic was 0 when the serplulimab patient assistance program was not considered, but 100% when the patient assistance program was considered.
CONCLUSIONS
2
At a WTP threshold of 3 times China’s per capita GDP in 2022, the serplulimab group is no cost-effectiveness compared to the chemotherapy alone group; however, this result is reversed when the patient assistance program is taken into account.
