RESUMO
AIM: To estimate the cost-effectiveness of dapagliflozin across the range of ejection fraction in patients with heart failure (HF) in Russian Federation. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Cost-effectiveness model was developed for estimate the use of dapagliflozin as part of standard therapy in patients with HF regardless of ejection fraction is unknown. The calculation of costs was carried out in a mathematical model adapted to the conditions of Russian healthcare system by using Russian costs inputs and patient population characteristics. RESULTS: In the model, dapagliflozin therapy yielded a mean of 0.209 additional life-years compared with standard of care in 10 years horizon. The incremental cost of 1 additional life-year was 665,715 RUB, which does not exceed the threshold of willingness to pay 2,235,202 RUB. CONCLUSION: Thus, the intensification of chronic HF therapy with dapagliflozin is cost effective. The use of dapagliflozin in a cohort of 1000 target patients over 10 years will avoid 146 hospitalizations and 39 emergency visits due to HF, as well as prevent 32 deaths from cardiovascular diseases.
