Abstract

Purpose: The higher costs of insulin analogs including short-acting insulin aspart (IAsp) and long-acting insulin glargine (IGla) have restricted their widespread uptake despite having improved pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties and patient convenience. This study aims to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of IAsp versus Regular Insulin (RI) and IGla versus NPH Insulin in type 1 and 2 diabetes from the perspective of the Iranian healthcare system.

Methods: Clinical data including HbA1c levels, hypoglycemia, weight gain, and health-related quality of life were derived from the included systematic review and meta-analysis studies. Different methods of pharmacoeconomic evaluation were used for an annual time horizon. Utility decrements for diabetes-related complications were extracted from the literature. Direct medical costs were calculated in 2022 prices. A one-way sensitivity analysis was also performed.

Results: In type 1 diabetes, IAsp was associated with more costs and effects in terms of reducing HbA1c compared with RI. An incremental cost of $83 was estimated to obtain an additional 1% reduction in HbA1c per patient per year. Similarly, an incremental cost of $16 was estimated for IGla compared with NPH. In type 2 diabetes, IAsp and RI were associated with equal efficacy and safety. For IGla versus NPH, the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio was calculated at $1975 per quality-adjusted life-year. The robustness of the result was confirmed through sensitivity analysis.

Conclusion: Insulin analogs, IAsp and IGla, are cost-effective for type 1 diabetes versus human insulins, RI and NPH. For type 2 diabetes, IAsp is not cost-effective when compared with RI. For IGla versus NPH, however, the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio seems to be within the accepted thresholds.

天冬氨酸胰岛素和甘精胰岛素治疗伊朗1型和2型糖尿病的药物经济学评价。
目的:胰岛素类似物,包括短效天冬氨酸胰岛素(IAsp)和长效甘精胰岛素(IGla),尽管具有改善的药代动力学和药效学特性以及患者方便性,但其成本较高,限制了其广泛使用。本研究旨在从伊朗医疗系统的角度评估IAsp与常规胰岛素(RI)以及IGla与NPH胰岛素在1型和2型糖尿病中的成本效益。方法:从纳入的系统综述和荟萃分析研究中获得包括HbA1c水平、低血糖、体重增加和健康相关生活质量在内的临床数据。在每年的时间范围内使用不同的药物经济学评价方法。糖尿病相关并发症的效用递减从文献中提取。直接医疗费用按2022年价格计算。还进行了单向灵敏度分析。结果:在1型糖尿病中,与RI相比,IAsp在降低HbA1c方面具有更多的成本和效果。估计每名患者每年的HbA1c可额外降低1%,增量成本为83美元。同样,与NPH相比,IGla的增量成本估计为16美元。在2型糖尿病中,IAsp和RI具有同等的疗效和安全性。对于IGla与NPH,增量成本效益比计算为每质量调整生命年1975美元。通过灵敏度分析证实了结果的稳健性。结论:与人胰岛素RI和NPH相比,胰岛素类似物IAsp和IGla治疗1型糖尿病具有成本效益。对于2型糖尿病,与RI相比,IAsp不具有成本效益。然而,对于IGla与NPH,增量成本效益比似乎在可接受的阈值内。
