Article Synopsis
  • The ARAMIS model was used to analyze the cost-effectiveness of dolutegravir (DTG) in Canadian HIV patients, comparing it with several other treatments for both treatment-naive (TN) and treatment-experienced (TE) cases.
  • Results showed that DTG was consistently more effective in increasing quality-adjusted life-years and was associated with significant cost savings compared to other treatments.
  • The study concluded that DTG is a superior option for managing HIV due to its high efficacy and resistance barrier, making it the preferred choice in both TN and TE patient populations.
