ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To rapidly evaluate the effectiveness ,safety and economy of evolocumab in the treatment of hypercholesterolemia so as to provide evidence-based reference for clinical drug selection and decision. METHODS :Retrieved from PubMed,Cochrane Library ,CNKI,Wanfang database and HTA relative official website ,HTA reports ,systematic evaluation/ Meta-analysis and pharmacoeconomic studies about evolocumab alone or combined with standard plan versus standard plan or placebo or ezetimibe in the treatment of hypercholesterolemia were collected during the inception to Jan. 2020. Based on literature screening and data extraction ,HTA checklist ,system evaluation measurement tool AMSTAR- 2 scale,comprehensive healthy economic evaluation report standard scale were used to evaluate the quality of included HTA reports ,systematic evaluation/ Meta-analysis and pharmacoeconomic literatures. Quantitative description was performed for effectiveness and safety results ,and qualitative description was performed for economic evaluation results. RESULTS :A total of 13 literatures were included ,involving 6 Meta-analysis and 7 economic studies. The quality of Meta-analysis literatures was low ,and the quality of economic research was good. In terms of effectiveness ,compared with placebo or ezetimibe ,evolocumab significantly reduced the levels of LDL-C ,TC, TG and VLDL-C ,the incidence of cardiovascular events ,myocardial infarction ,coronary ischemia and stroke ,while increased the level of HDL-C (P<0.05). There was no statisti cal significance in the risk of hospitalizatio n,cardiac mortality or cardiovascular disease mortality in patients with unstable angina pectoris between placebo and evolocumab (P>0.05). In terms ofsafety,there was no significant difference in the incidence of 6237545。E-mail:zhangxu1130@163.com any adverse events ,any treatment emergency adverse events and back pain ,musculoskeletal and connective tissue diseases between evolocumab and placebo (P>0.05). In terms of economy,additional use of evolocumab ,based on standard plan ,had a cost-effectiveness advantage for patients with high-risk atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD)whose blood lipids were still not up to standard. CONCLUSIONS :Evolocumab has good effectiveness and safety in the treatment of hypercholesterolemia. For high-risk patients with ASCVD whose blood lipids are still not up to standard after standard plan ,evolocumab has certain economy and can be used as an alternative.
