Cost-effectiveness of abatacept for moderate-to-severe rheumatoid arthritis.
Expert Review of Pharmacoeconomics & Outcomes Research 2014 Februrary
Abatacept, a selective T-cell costimulation modulator, has become a valuable treatment option for those with moderately to severely active rheumatoid arthritis. Given new clinical evidence, for the first time guidelines from the American College of Rheumatology and Canadian Rheumatology Association are promoting the consideration of abatacept as the first biologic added to initial traditional disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs once an inadequate response to disease-modifying antirheumatic drug monotherapy has been established, putting abatacept at the same line of treatment options as TNF-α inhibitors or rituximab. Since the advent of the subcutaneous formulation of abatacept, positive results from its clinical trials have further increased its appeal. In light of these changes, a review of the literature was conducted on the cost-effectiveness of abatacept for moderate-to-severe rheumatoid arthritis. Here we discuss current evidence, gaps in the literature and abatacept's future outlook.
