Cost-Effectiveness of Adding SGLT2 Inhibitors to Standard Treatment for Heart Failure With Reduced Ejection Fraction Patients in China

Objective: To evaluate the economics and effectiveness of adding dapagliflozin or empagliflozin to the standard treatment for heart failure (HF) for patients with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) in China.Methods: A Markov model was developed to project the clinical and economic outcomes of adding...

A cost-utility analysis was performed based mostly on data from the empagliflozin outcome trial in patients with chronic heart failure and a reduced ejection fraction (EMPEROR-Reduced) study and the dapagliflozin and prevention of adverse outcomes in heart failure (DAPA-HF) trial. The primary outcomes were measured via total and incremental costs and quality-adjusted life years (QALYs) and the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER).Results: In China, compared to the standard treatment, although adding dapagliflozin to the standard treatment in the treatment of HFrEF was more expensive ($4,870.68 vs. $3,596.25), it was more cost-effective (3.87 QALYs vs. 3.64 QALYs), resulting in an ICER of $5,541.00 per QALY. Similarly, adding empagliflozin was more expensive ($5,021.93 vs. $4,118.86) but more cost-effective (3.66 QALYs vs. 3.53 QALYs), resulting in an ICER of $6,946.69 per QALY. A sensitivity analysis demonstrated the robustness of the model in identifying cardiovascular death as a significant driver of cost-effectiveness. A probabilistic sensitivity analysis indicated that when the willingness-to-pay was $11,008.07 per QALY, the probability of the addition of dapagliflozin or empagliflozin being cost-effective was 70.5 and 55.2%, respectively. A scenario analysis showed that the cost of hospitalization, diabetes status, and time horizon had a greater impact on ICER.Conclusion: Compared with standard treatments with or without empagliflozin, adding dapagliflozin to the standard treatment in the treatment of HFrEF in China was extremely cost-effective.Yaohui JiangRujie ZhengHaiqiang SangFrontiers Media S.A.articledapagliflozinempagliflozinheart failurecost-effectiveness analysisChinaTherapeutics.
