BIOLOGICAL THERAPY IN ADULT PATIENTS WITH ULCERATIVE COLITIS AND CROHN’S DISEASE: BUDGET IMPACT ANALYSIS
https://doi.org/10.17749/2070-4909.2017.10.1.019-028
Abstract
Aims of the study: to assess health care costs of the use of biological agents (vedolizumab and various TNF-α inhibitors) in adult patients with moderate to severe active ulcerative colitis (UC) and moderate or severe active Crohn’s disease (CT) with an unsatisfactory response, loss of response, or intolerance to one or more chemotherapeutic agents, and TNF-α inhibitors.
Materials and Methods. Statistical analysis, published reports on inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) treatment, the highest quoted prices of drugs from the list of vital and essential drugs (VED), the size of the maximal wholesale mark-ups, and the regulations of financial expenses in the Russian Federation Health system in 2016, were used in this analysis. Since Vedolizumab has been just recently registered in theRussian Federation and it is yet to be included in the VED, for now the drug has no quoted price. Therefore, we used the price suggested by the manufacturer added with the wholesale markup and VAT.
Results. As compared with the biological agents-TNF-α inhibitors currently used in the treatment of adult patients with moderate to severe active UC and moderate to severe active CD who showed an unsatisfactory response, loss of response or intolerance of one or more components of standard therapy, or TNF-α inhibitors, the introduction of Vedolizumab with shares of 3%, 4% and 7% for the first, second and third year is expected to result in cost savings of 26.4 million rubles (0.62%) for UC and 21.5 million rubles (0.63%) for CD.
