Article Synopsis
  • The study follows the PANORAMIC trial, investigating the long-term effectiveness of molnupiravir for COVID-19 on wellbeing, persistent symptoms, new infections, healthcare use, and time off work at 3 and 6 months post-randomization.
  • Participants included adults over 50 or younger with specific health issues, who were affected by COVID-19 for less than 5 days and were divided into either a molnupiravir treatment group or a standard care group.
  • The trial involved 25,783 participants and aimed to assess various secondary outcomes, including self-reported wellness, symptom severity, health-related quality of life, and overall healthcare usage after the initial

Background: The cost-effectiveness of molnupiravir, an oral antiviral for early treatment of SARS-CoV-2, has not been established in vaccinated populations.

Aim: To evaluate the cost-effectiveness of molnupiravir relative to usual care alone among mainly vaccinated community-based people at higher risk of severe outcomes from COVID-19 over 6 months.

Design And Setting: An economic evaluation of the PANORAMIC trial in the UK.

Introduction: There is an urgent need to determine the safety, effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of novel antiviral treatments for COVID-19 in vaccinated patients in the community at increased risk of morbidity and mortality from COVID-19.

Methods And Analysis: PANORAMIC is a UK-wide, open-label, prospective, adaptive, multiarm platform, randomised clinical trial that evaluates antiviral treatments for COVID-19 in the community. A master protocol governs the addition of new antiviral treatments as they become available, and the introduction and cessation of existing interventions via interim analyses.

Background: The safety, effectiveness, and cost-effectiveness of molnupiravir, an oral antiviral medication for SARS-CoV-2, has not been established in vaccinated patients in the community at increased risk of morbidity and mortality from COVID-19. We aimed to establish whether the addition of molnupiravir to usual care reduced hospital admissions and deaths associated with COVID-19 in this population.

Methods: PANORAMIC was a UK-based, national, multicentre, open-label, multigroup, prospective, platform adaptive randomised controlled trial.
