Figures & data
Notes: A pharmacoeconomic analysis was undertaken to assess the impact of SQ HDM SLIT-tablet on allergic rhinitis patients with poor disease control despite taking pharmacotherapy. Two treatment options were included: SQ HDM SLIT-tablet plus pharmacotherapy and pharmacotherapy alone. A nine-year time horizon was used, with SQ HDM SLIT-tablet patients given treatment for three years. Over this nine-year horizon, the total costs and QALYs were estimated for each treatment group, and compared via the calculation of the ICER.
Abbreviations: QALY, quality-adjusted life-year; ICER, incremental cost-effectiveness ratio; HDM, house dust mite; SLIT, sublingual allergy immunotherapy; SQ, standardized quality.
