Economic evaluation of betibeglogene autotemcel (Beti-cel) gene addition therapy in transfusion-dependent β-thalassemia
Background Standard of care (SoC) for transfusion-dependent β-thalassemia (TDT) requires lifelong, regular blood transfusions as well as chelation to reduce iron accumulation. Objective This study investigates the cost-effectiveness of betibeglogene autotemcel (‘beti-cel’; LentiGlobin for β-thalasse...
