Background: Activated phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) δ Syndrome (APDS) is an ultra-rare, potentially life-threatening disease that lacks approved treatments in Spain. This study aimed to apply Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA) to assess the value of the first pharmacological treatment for APDS in Spain.

Methods: A multidisciplinary group of 8 experts evaluated the selective PI3Kδ inhibitor leniolisib against Standard of Care (SoC). An MCDA framework tailored for Orphan Drugs (ODs), consisting of 5 comparative and 2 quantitative non-comparative criteria, was used. Re-scoring followed a group discussion.

Results: Leniolisib scored higher than SoC in all criteria, including efficacy and safety. It was deemed highly valuable as the first disease-modifying treatment, with a positive therapeutic impact and potential to improve patients' quality of life. Additionally, leniolisib may lead to cost savings. The supporting data was considered of high quality.

Conclusion: Based on MCDA methodology and stakeholder experience in APDS management, leniolisib is seen as a value-added treatment option compared to SoC in Spain.

Activated PI3K delta syndrome (APDS) is a primary immunodeficiency that is caused by mutations in the PI3K signalling pathway resulting in either gain-of-function or loss-of-function phenotypes of APDS 1 and 2. Malignancy is one of the most serious complications associated with APDS patients, with the most commonly occurring of these being lymphoma, and is the most common cause of death in APDS patients. Management of APDS is complex and variable due to the heterogeneous nature of the disease and ranges from antimicrobial and immunosuppressant agents to haematopoetic stem cell transplantation.

Preoperative treatment of PHPT aims to 1) manage severe and/or symptomatic hypercalcemia and 2) prevent postoperative hypocalcemia. Severe hypercalcemia, defined as a blood calcium level ≥ 3.5 mmol/L, requires admission to hospital in a conventional or critical care unit, depending on clinical symptoms and comorbidities.

Inborn errors of immunity (IEI) are rare diseases that affect the immune system. According to the latest International Union of Immunological Societies (IUIS) classification, 485 different IEI have been identified. Even if increased susceptibility to infections is the best-known symptom, IEI are no longer defined by the higher likelihood of infections alone.
