To evaluate the cost-effectiveness of solifenacin 5 mg/day versus other oral antimuscarinic agents used for overactive bladder (OAB) from a UK National Health Service (NHS) perspective. In a Markov model, hypothetical patients received solifenacin 5 mg/day or a comparator antimuscarinic, after which they could switch to an alternative antimuscarinic. The model estimated incremental cost-effectiveness ratios (ICER), expressed as cost per quality-adjusted life year (QALY) over a 5-year period. Solifenacin 5 mg/day was the dominant treatment strategy (i.e., less costly and more effective) versus tolterodine extended-release (ER) 4 mg/day, fesoterodine 4 and 8 mg/day, oxybutynin ER 10 mg/day and solifenacin 10 mg/day, and was cost-effective (i.e., ICERs below the £30,000 per QALY threshold generally applied in the NHS) versus oxybutynin immediate release (IR) 10 mg/day, tolterodine IR 4 mg/day and trospium chloride 60 mg/day. The probability of solifenacin 5 mg/day being dominant/cost-effective at a willingness-to-pay threshold of £30,000 per QALY was 57-98%. Solifenacin 5 mg/day appears to be a cost-effective strategy for the treatment of OAB over a 5-year timeframe compared with other oral antimuscarinic agents in the UK. These findings are important for decision-makers considering the economic implications of selecting treatments for OAB.
从英国国家医疗服务体系(NHS)的角度评估每日5毫克索利那新与用于治疗膀胱过度活动症(OAB)的其他口服抗毒蕈碱药物的成本效益。在一个马尔可夫模型中,假设患者接受每日5毫克索利那新或一种对照抗毒蕈碱药物治疗,之后他们可以转而使用另一种抗毒蕈碱药物。该模型估计了增量成本效益比(ICER),以5年期间每质量调整生命年(QALY)的成本表示。与每日4毫克托特罗定缓释剂(ER)、4毫克和8毫克非索罗定、每日10毫克奥昔布宁ER以及每日10毫克索利那新相比,每日5毫克索利那新是主要治疗策略(即成本更低且更有效),并且与每日10毫克奥昔布宁速释剂(IR)、每日4毫克托特罗定IR以及每日60毫克氯化曲司氯铵相比具有成本效益(即ICER低于NHS通常采用的每QALY 30,000英镑的阈值)。在每QALY支付意愿阈值为30,000英镑时,每日5毫克索利那新占主导地位/具有成本效益的概率为57 - 98%。与英国其他口服抗毒蕈碱药物相比,在5年时间范围内,每日5毫克索利那新似乎是治疗OAB的一种具有成本效益的策略。这些发现对于考虑选择OAB治疗方法的经济影响的决策者而言很重要。
