ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE To analyze the cost-effectiveness of treatment regimens with cyclosporine or tacrolimus, five years after renal transplantation. METHODS This cost-effectiveness analysis was based on historical cohort data obtained between 2000 and 2004 and involved 2,022 patients treated with cyclosporine or tacrolimus, matched 1:1 for gender, age, and type and year of transplantation. Graft survival and the direct costs of medical care obtained from the National Health System (SUS) databases were used as outcome results. RESULTS Most of the patients were women, with a mean age of 36.6 years. The most frequent diagnosis of chronic renal failure was glomerulonephritis/nephritis (27.7%). In five years, the tacrolimus group had an average life expectancy gain of 3.96 years at an annual cost of R$78,360.57 compared with the cyclosporine group with a gain of 4.05 years and an annual cost of R$61,350.44. CONCLUSIONS After matching, the study indicated better survival of patients treated with regimens using tacrolimus. However, regimens containing cyclosporine were more cost-effective. .


OBJETIVO Analisar custo-efetividade de regimes terapêuticos com ciclosporina ou tacrolimo cinco anos após transplante renal. MÉTODOS Análise de custo-efetividade com base em dados de coorte histórica 2000-2004, com 2.022 pacientes tratados com ciclosporina ou tacrolimo e pareados 1:1 segundo sexo, idade, tipo e ano de transplante. A sobrevida do enxerto e os custos diretos de cuidados médicos a partir das bases de dados do Sistema Único de Saúde foram utilizados como medida de resultado. RESULTADOS A maioria dos pacientes era do sexo feminino e média de idade de 36,6 anos. O diagnóstico mais frequente de insuficiência renal crônica foi a glomerulonefrite/nefrite (27,7%). Em cinco anos, o grupo tacrolimo obteve uma expectativa de vida média de 3,96 anos de vida ganhos ao custo anual de R$78.360,57 ante 4,05 anos de vida ganhos e de R$61.350,44 para ciclosporina. CONCLUSÕES Após o pareamento, o estudo não mostrou melhor sobrevida dos pacientes com regimes que usam tacrolimo. Além disso, regimes contendo ciclosporina foram mais custo-efetivos. .
