RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is a leading cause of cancer deaths. Its treatment includes specific oral tyrosine kinases inhibitors (TKIs). OBJECTIVES: To estimate adherence and persistence among patients receiving TKIs and to assess the economic burden of the unused medicines in Alsace (France). METHOD: This retrospective study was carried out using the Insurance Healthcare database. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Adherence was calculated using medication possession ratio (MPR), persistence using estimated level of persistence with therapy (ELPT) and economic impact using prescription refill data. RESULTS: 242 patients were receiving TKIs. The most common TKIs prescribed were erlotinib (75.6%, n = 183) and crizotinib (12.8%, n = 31). Total of 149 patients were included in the adherence analysis. Overall MPR was 0.98. 180 patients were included in the persistence analysis. Almost half of patients had stopped treatment at 60 days and only 38.3% (n = 69) were still persistent with the therapy at 120 days. The expenses related to unused TKIs amounted to €356,392 and were related majorly to treatment discontinuation followed by overlapping refills, patient deaths and dose- or drug-switching, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: Our data indicated overall adherence medicines above the acceptable limit of 0.80 but also pointed out a significant decline in persistence over time. The resulting economic losses justify the need for physicians and pharmacists to closely monitor their patients to ensure continuity of treatment. To limit the cost associated with unused medicines, interventions such as app-based monitoring, dispensing TKIs per unit over shorter periods and not only on monthly intervals could be implemented.

RESUMEN

INTRODUCTION: Early detection and treatment of cardiogenic shock (CS) is crucial to avoid irreparable multiorgan damage and mortality. Impella CP® is a novel temporary mechanical circulatory support (MCS) device associated with greater hemodynamic support and significantly fewer device-related complications compared with other MCS devices, e.g., intra-aortic balloon pumps (IABP) and venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO). The present study evaluated the budget impact of introducing Impella CP versus IABP and VA-ECMO in patients with CS following an acute myocardial infarction (MI) in France. METHODS: A budget impact model was developed to compare the cost of introducing Impella CP with continuing IABP and VA-ECMO treatment from a Mandatory Health Insurance (MHI) perspective in France over a 5-year time horizon, with 700 patients with refractory CS assumed to be eligible for treatment per year. Costs associated with Impella CP and device-related complications for all interventions were captured and clinical input data were based on published sources. Scenario analyses were performed around key parameters. RESULTS: Introducing Impella CP was associated with cumulative cost savings of EUR 2.7 million over 5 years, versus continuing current clinical practice with IABP and VA-ECMO. Cost savings were achieved in every year of the analysis and driven by the lower incidence of device-related complications with Impella CP, with estimated 5-year cost savings of EUR 22.4 million due to avoidance of complications. Total cost savings of more than EUR 250,000 were projected in the first year of the analysis, which increased as the market share of Impella CP was increased. Scenario analyses indicated that the findings of the analysis were robust. CONCLUSION: Treatment with Impella CP in adult patients aged less than 75 years in a state of refractory CS following an MI was projected to lead to substantial cost savings from an MHI perspective in France, compared with continuing current clinical practice.
