  • Cost-utility analysis of pharmacogenomics-guided tacrolimus treatment of Slovenian patients undergoing kidney transplantation in the U-PGx PREPARE study [Elektronski vir]
    Fragoulakis, Vasileios ...
    Tacrolimus (TAC) is one of the most widely prescribed maintenance immunosuppressant drugs in solid organ transplantation. Kidney transplantation is often the preferred treatment for patients with the ... kidney failure and is complemented with TAC treatment. TAC treatment is often associated with adverse drug events, which can be reduced by pharmacogenomic (PGx)-guided prescription. We conducted a cost-utility analysis to assess the cost-effectiveness of PGx-guided TAC treatment versus the conventional scheme in patients who recently underwent kidney transplantation in Slovenia. Clinical data were collected from the PREPARE study. The effectiveness of the treatment was determined by mean survival and utility values and Incremental Cost-Effectiveness Ratio was also calculated. Costs of PGx-guided treatment was comparable to conventional treatment but shared reduced risk for severe ADEs and 43% improved quality of life. PGx-guided arm showed a mean of 0.956 Quality-Adjusted Life Years (QALYs) (95% CI: 0.900-1.014) compared to 0.862 QALYs (95%CI: 0.801-0.918) in the other arm. Probabilistic sensitivity analyses confirmed the results' robustness. In conclusion, PGx-guided treatment represents a cost-effective option for the TAC treatment of kidney-transplanted patients in the Slovenian healthcare setting.
