Characteristics and Outcomes for Recipients of NVX-CoV2373: A Real-World Retrospective Study in Germany.

Real-world evidence supports SARS-CoV-2 vaccination strategies during the COVID-19 pandemic. This real-world retrospective study utilized the German Disease Analyzer database to characterize recipients of NVX-CoV2373 and explore vaccination outcomes. Recipients (≥12 years) of NVX-CoV2373 as a primary series or booster in Germany were vaccinated between March and December 2022.

The Burden of a Multiple Myeloma Diagnosis on Patients and Caregivers in the First Year: Western European Findings.

Background: This research aimed to quantify the burden of illness (BoI) in transplant eligible (TE) and transplant non-eligible (TNE) newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (NDMM) patients and their caregivers, in the first year after diagnosis: at months 0, 3, and 12.

Methods: Prospective, cross-sectional, observational NDMM study of TE and TNE patients and their caregivers from France, Germany, Italy, and Spain was conducted between May 2019 and January 2021. A structured, online questionnaire measuring disease burden, direct and costs, out-of-pocket expenses, and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) was used.

Romiplostim and eltrombopag for immune thrombocytopenia: methods for indirect comparison.

Objectives: Immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) causes increased platelet destruction and suboptimal platelet production, increasing risk of bleeding. This analysis uses a Bayesian metaregression model to indirectly compare effectiveness of the thrombopoietin mimetics romiplostim and eltrombopag for increasing platelet counts, and contrasts the results with those of non-Bayesian approaches.

Methods: Ten databases were searched during 2010.
