However, some studies have shown that CSII is cost effective when it results in improved metabolic control and quality of life (QoL) [ 9- 11].
Genotyping may well be cost-effective when it is limited to baseline samples, and generic hrHPV testing is applied during follow-up.
In the present study, the use of RCHOP-R regimen was found to be cost-effective when it is compared with all feasible CHOP-derived treatment options in the Finnish setting using the EORTC20981 5-year follow-up data.
In theory, one would expect the manufacturer to propose a price that will result in the drug being cost-effective when it is subjected to an HTA.
In this study, we used the criteria that a strategy for ruling out of TB diagnosis is cost-effective when it is less costly and when it is at least as effective as the AFB smear plus culture strategy.
A UK approach, by Devlin & Parkin [ 21], states that a new intervention is cost-effective when it costs a maximum of £20,000 - £30,000 per Quality Adjusted Life Year (QALY); approximately US $34,000 - $51,000.
An intervention was deemed to be cost-effective when its incremental cost-effectiveness ratio compared with the comparator agent fell below a certain pre-defined threshold.
However, such campaigns might be cost effective when possible protective effects on other diseases are taken into account.
Limited economic evidence suggests that adalimumab 40 mg may be cost effective when used according to current valid treatment guidelines.
The cost effectiveness of dabigatran, apixaban, and rivaroxaban has been investigated in several studies, and all three were shown to be cost effective when systematically reviewed [ 9, 10].
Both Moore's model and this study highlight the fact that MRI screening for breast cancer may be cost effective, when the cost of MRI scans is low.
