January 2025
Novartis Singapore Pte Ltd, Singapore. Electronic address:
Objectives: This analysis evaluated the cost-effectiveness of inclisiran plus standard of care (SoC; comprising statins, ezetimibe, and fenofibrate) in primary hypercholesterolemia or mixed dyslipidemia from a Singapore healthcare system perspective. Inclisiran + SoC was separately compared with SoC, alirocumab + SoC, and evolocumab + SoC.
Methods: A lifetime Markov model in the United Kingdom (UK) was adapted to the Singapore setting.

Pharmaceutical Sciences Research Center, Kermanshah University of Medical Sciences, Kermanshah, Iran (the Islamic Republic of).
Objectives: The main objective was to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of various medical therapy combinations in managing chronic coronary syndrome (CCS) in Iran, based on real-world and patient-level data.
Design: A cost-utility analysis employing a Markov model was conducted using data from a retrospective cohort study.
Setting: The study was conducted in the healthcare setting of Iran, focusing on primary and secondary care.

Importance: Medication adherence is important for managing blood pressure (BP), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), and hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c). Interventions to improve medication adherence are needed.
Objective: To examine the effectiveness of an intervention using algorithmic identification of low medication adherence, clinical decision support to physicians, and pharmacist outreach to patients to improve cardiometabolic medication adherence and BP, LDL-C, and HbA1c control.

Division of General Medicine, Columbia University Irving Medical Center, New York, New York.
Importance: The Southern Community Cohort Study (SCCS) Polypill Trial showed that a cardiovascular polypill (a single pill containing a statin and 3 half-standard dose antihypertensive medications) effectively controls cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors in a majority Black race and low-income population. The cost-effectiveness of polypill treatment in this population has not been previously studied.
Objective: To determine the cost-effectiveness of the cardiovascular polypill.

Clinical Trial Service Unit and Epidemiological Studies Unit, Nuffield Department of Population Health, University of Oxford, Oxford, UK.
Background: Cardiovascular disease has declined but remains a major disease burden across developed countries.
Objective: To assess the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of statin therapy across United Kingdom population categories.
Design: The cardiovascular disease microsimulation model, developed using Cholesterol Treatment Trialists' Collaboration data and the United Kingdom Biobank cohort, projected cardiovascular events, mortality, quality of life and healthcare costs using participant characteristics.
