Systematic Review of the Economics of the Second-generation Direct-acting Antiviral Agents in the Treatment of Hepatitis C / 中国药房

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE：To systematically evaluate the pharmacoeconomic research of the second-generation direct-acting antiviral agents （DAAs）in the treatment of hepatitis C ，and to provide methodological suggestions for economic research ，and to provide decision-making reference for the adjustment of medical insurance catalogues and market access. METHODS ：Retrieved from PubMed ，EMbase，the Cochrane library ，CNKI，Wanfang database and VIP ，the pharmacoeconomic researches of the second-generation DAAs for hepatitis C were collected during Jan. 2015-Jan. 2020. The quality of included studies were evaluated with the checklist about Consolidated Health Economics Evaluation Reporting Standards （CHEERS），and the data were extracted and analyzed quantitatively. RESULTS ：A total of 14 studies were included ，and the standard coincidence rate ranged from 79.2％ to 95.8％；the overall quality was relatively high. Thirteen （92.9％）studies had compared the economics of different treatment schemes from the perspective of the payer by using the Markov model and the lifetime study time limit. Compared with the second-generation DAAs treatment schemes based on sofosbuvir ，all the research results showed that Ombitasvir combined with Dasabuvir（3D），EBR/GZR and GLE/PIB were more economical in the target countries ；single factor sensitivity analysis showed that the research results were more sensitive to the three parameters of drug price ，drug SVR rate and health status utility value. CONCLUSIONS：Among the second-generation DAAs for hepatitis C ，the three regimens of 3D，EBR/GZR and GLE/PIB are more economical. It is recommended that future research on the economics of medicines for hepatitis C adopted dynamic model and the research perspective of the whole society to carry out direct high-quality economic research on a variety of DAAs ；at the same time，considered the effects of drug price ，drug SVR rate and health status utility value on the robustness of basic analysis results in sensitivity analysis in order to increase the credibility of the research results.
