TABLE 2.

Model Results for Eculizumab and Efgartigimod Compared with Conventional Therapy

Deterministic analysis Total costs $ QALYs LYs Incremental results
Cost/QALY gained (same as cost per evLYG) Cost/LY gaineda
Comparison of eculizumab to conventional therapy
  Eculizumab plus CT 855,400 1.13 1.93 5,210,000 N/A
  CT alone 95,500 0.98 1.93
Comparison of efgartigimod to conventional therapy
  Efgartigimod plus CTb 692,700 1.27 1.93 2,076,000 N/A
  CT alone 94,800 0.98 1.93

a There were no differences in survival. Cost per life-year gained could not be calculated, whereas cost per evLYG is equal to the cost per QALY gained.

b Efgartigimod was evaluated using a placeholder price.

evLYG = equal value of life-years gained; CT = conventional therapy; LY = life-year; N/A = not applicable; QALY = quality-adjusted life-year.
