RESUMO

Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a genetic disorder of the hemoglobin resulting in chronic anemia, hemolysis, and vaso-occlusions. Its treatment mostly relies on hydroxycarbamide, transfusions, and stem cell transplantation. This study aimed at describing the epidemiology and management of SCD in adolescent and adult patients in France. This was a retrospective study performed among SCD patients aged ≥12 years between 2016 and 2018 and controls. SCD patients were matched on a 1:3 ratio with a group of individuals with no diagnosis of SCD, referred as control group. The matching of SCD patients and controls was a direct matching based on age, sex, CMU-c status (which corresponds to free-of-charge complementary coverage for people with low resources) and geographical region of residence. SCD patients and their matched controls were followed-up for the same amount of time by adjusting controls' follow-up period to that of the associated patients. This study used claims data from the French representative 1/97th sample of health data system. The main outcomes were the patients' characteristics and treatments received, healthcare consumptions and related costs among SCD cases and controls. Between 2016 and 2018, 151 patients with ≥6 months of follow-up were identified out of the total population of 732,164 individuals. SCD prevalence extrapolated to the entire population [95% CI] was 19,502 [19,230, 19,778] in 2018. The median (Q1-Q3) age at inclusion date was 37.0 (25.0-48.0) years, with 69.5% of patients being female. The mean (SD) reimbursed cost over follow-up was €24,310 (89,167), mostly represented by hospitalization costs accounting for €21,156 (86,402). A switch in SCD management was observed with age, as younger patients presented more frequent hospitalizations and acute procedures, while older ones had more frequent medical visits and paramedical care. Mean (SD) annual costs were €25,680 (91,843) and vs. €3,227 (23,372) for patients and controls, respectively (p < 0.001), representing an extra cost of almost €150 million over the entire SCD population. This study highlighted the important costs related to SCD and the related medical need with treatment alternatives, which could be filled by the emergence of new therapies.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy (ALD) is a rare metabolic and neurodegenerative disorder belonging to the group of leukodystrophies, with an estimated incidence around 1:25 000 newborns worldwide, mostly among men. Childhood Cerebral ALD (CCALD) is the most severe form with a poor prognosis if not properly treated during the first years of life. Currently, only allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) is widely available for CCALD treatment. To date, there is a lack of data regarding CCALD epidemiology, natural history, and current management in France. This knowledge is crucial for the development of new therapies such as gene therapies. In this context, the French National Health Data System (SNDS) is a particularly indicated database to collect information meeting these needs. A non-interventional, national, real-life, retrospective study was performed using secondary data from the national ALD registry (LEUKOFRANCE) and SNDS. CCALD patients detected between 2009 and 2018 and successfully matched between LEUKOFRANCE and SNDS were included in this study. Index date was defined as the first CCALD event detected during study period. Subgroups of patients with sufficient follow-up (6 months) and history (1 year) available around index date were analyzed to assess CCALD burden and natural history. RESULTS: 52 patients were included into the matched cohort. Median annual incidence of CCALD was estimated at 4 patients. Median age at CCALD diagnosis was 7.0 years. Among patients without allo-HSCT, five-year overall survival was 66.6%, with 93.3% of them presenting at least one CCALD symptom and 62.1% presenting a least one major functional disability (MFD). Among patients with allo-HSCT, five-year overall survival was 94.4%, with only 11.1% of patients presenting CCALD symptoms, and 16.7% of presenting a MFD. Mean annualized costs were almost twice as important among patients without allo-HSCT, with 49,211€, 23,117€, respectively. Costs were almost exclusively represented by hospitalizations. CONCLUSIONS: To the best of our knowledge, this is the most up to date study analyzing CCALD epidemiology, clinical and economic burden in France. The necessity of a precocious management with HSCT highlight the potential benefits of including an expanded screening program among newborns, coupled with family screenings when a mutation is detected.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: To describe the incidence, management, and survival outcomes of patients with muscle-invasive urothelial carcinoma (MIUC) undergoing radical surgery (RS) in France. METHODS: We relied on a non-interventional real-world retrospective study based on French National Hospitalization Database. Adults with MIUC with a first RS between 2015 and 2020 were selected. Subpopulations of patients with RS performed in 2015 and 2019 (pre-COVID-19) were extracted, according to cancer site: muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) or upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC). Disease-free and overall survival (DFS, OS - Kaplan-Meier) were assessed on the 2015 subpopulation. RESULTS: Between 2015 and 2020, 21,295 MIUC patients underwent a first RS. Of them, 68.9% had MIBC, 28.9% UTUC, and 2.2% both cancers. Apart from fewer men among UTUC (70.2%) than MIBC patients (90.1%), patients' demographic (mean age ~ 73 years) and clinical characteristics were similar whatever the cancer site or year of first RS. In 2019, RS alone was the most frequent treatment, occurring in 72.3% and 92.6% in MIBC and UTUC, respectively. Between 2015 and 2019, neoadjuvant use rate increased from 13.8% to 22.2% in MIBC, and adjuvant use rate increased from 3.7% to 6.3% in UTUC. Finally, median [95% confidence interval] DFS times were 16.0 [14.0-18.0] and 27.0 [23.0-32.0] months among MIBC and UTUC, respectively. CONCLUSION: Among patients with resected MIUC annually, RS alone remained the main treatment. Neoadjuvant and adjuvant use increased between 2015 and 2019. Nonetheless, MIUC remains of poor prognosis, highlighting an unmet medical need, notably among patients at high risk of recurrence.
