Pharmacoeconomic evaluation of camrelizumab combined with chemotherapy in the treatment of cervical cancer in China
To perform a pharmacoeconomic evaluation of camrelizumab combined with chemotherapy in the treatment of cervical cancer in China.
METHODS
2
From the perspective of China’s healthcare system, a Markov model was constructed based on literature data regarding the treatment of cervical cancer with camrelizumab combined with chemotherapy, where the incidence of adverse reactions was obtained through a meta-analysis. The model was run over a 10-year time horizon with a 3-week cycle length. Costs included direct costs (e.g. drug cost, adverse event treatment cost). Utility values were derived from existing studies, and transition probabilities were calculated using literature data, with a discount rate of 5%; the willingness-to-pay (WTP) threshold was set at 3 times China’s 2024 per capita gross domestic product (GDP), i.e. 287 247 yuan/quality-adjusted life year(QALY). Cost-effectiveness was compared between camrelizumab combined with chemotherapy and monotherapy. One-way sensitivity analysis and Monte Carlo simulation were used to evaluate the impact of parameter variations on results.
RESULTS
2
Compared with camrelizumab monotherapy, the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER) of camrelizumab combined with chemotherapy was 181 507.58 yuan/QALY, below the predefined WTP threshold. One-way sensitivity analysis showed that the outcomes were largely affected by the progression-free survival-to-death transition probabilities in both groups. Probabilistic sensitivity analysis indicated a 91.8% probability of camrelizumab combined with chemotherapy being cost-effective at a WTP threshold of 3 times China’s 2024 per capita GDP.
CONCLUSIONS
2
From China’s healthcare system perspective, camrelizumab combined with chemotherapy is cost-effective for cervical cancer in China, compared with monotherapy, when using 3 times China’s 2024 per capita GDP as the WTP threshold.
