Background: Huntington disease (HD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease that causes psychiatric and neurological symptoms, including involuntary and irregular muscle movements (chorea). Chorea can disrupt activities of daily living, pose safety issues, and may lead to social withdrawal. The vesicular monoamine transporter 2 inhibitors tetrabenazine, deutetrabenazine, and valbenazine are approved treatments that can reduce chorea.

Aims: Empagliflozin confers cardioprotective benefits among patients with heart failure, across the range of ejection fraction (EF), regardless of type 2 diabetes status. The long-term cost-effectiveness of empagliflozin for the treatment of heart failure (HF) in the Philippines remains unclear. This study aims to determine the economic benefit of adding empagliflozin to the standard of care (SoC) vs the SoC alone for HF in the Philippines.

Introduction: This analysis aimed to evaluate the long-term cost-effectiveness of tirzepatide 5 mg versus dulaglutide 0.75 mg (both administered once weekly) in people not achieving glycemic control on metformin, based on the results of the head-to-head SURPASS J-mono trial from a Japanese healthcare payer perspective.

Methods: A cost-utility analysis was performed over a 50-year time horizon using an implementation of the UKPDS Outcomes Model 2 developed in Microsoft Excel.

Article Synopsis
  • Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) commonly causes respiratory illnesses, especially severe in adults over 60 or those with chronic conditions; a study examined the cost-effectiveness of the RSVPreF3 vaccine for this age group in the US.* -
  • A multi-cohort Markov model compared outcomes of not vaccinating versus a one-time vaccination, estimating that vaccinating approximately 52.7 million older adults would save nearly 244,424 quality-adjusted life years (QALYs) at a societal cost of about $4.5 billion over five years.* -
  • The analysis indicated that the adjuvanted RSVPreF3 vaccine is cost-effective, with an incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (
