Pharmacoeconomic Evaluation of Ixekizumab in the Treatment of Moderate-to-severe Plaque Psoriasis / 中国药房

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE：To evaluate the drug economy of ixekizumab in the treatment of moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis. METHODS： Literatures were retrieved from PubMed ， Embase， The Cochrane Library ， CNKI and Wanfang database ， supplemented by manual search ，search time from the database establishment to Oct. 31st，2019，using Chinese and English search terms included “Ixekizumab”“Taltz”“Psoriasis”“Pharmacoeconomics”“Cost-benifit analysis ”“Cost-effectiveness analysis ” “Cost-utility analysis ”，etc. The literatures were screened according to inclusion and exclusion criteria. Relevant pharmacoeconomic studies about ixekizumab in the treatment of moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis were collected ，and the study methods and pharmacoeconomic evaluation results were summarized. RESULTS ：A total of 8 literatures were included ，involving 9 studies. The overall quality of the studies was high. All the studies were distributed in foreign countries such as Canada ，the United States and the United Kingdom. All the studies adopted Markov model. The health outcomes showed that ixekizumab could bring more quality-adjusted life years. Compared with methotrexate combined with phototherapy ，infliximab，ustekinumab and secukinumab ， the incremental cost-utility ratio （ICUR）of ixekizumab was different in different studies. CONCLUSIONS ：Ixekizumab has certain economic advantages for the treatment of moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis ，but there is still a lack of relevant research in China and it is urgent to carry out relevant research suitable for Chinese.
