Overview
A limited number of cost-effective studies have been done. For the acute promyelocytic leukemia subtype of acute myeloid leukemia, these studies showed that all-trans retinoic acid-based therapy is more cost-effective than chemotherapy.
Cost-effectiveness of therapy
A limited number of cost-effectiveness studies have been performed in acute myeloid leukemia. One comprehensive cost-effective analysis studied the costs of therapy.
- The combination of all-trans retinoic acid plus idarubicin was more cost-effective than the combination of all-trans retinoic acid plus cytarabine plus additional chemotherapy.[1]
- The incremental cost-effective ratio for all-trans retinoic acid plus idarubicin was $2933 per life year saved and $3122 per quality-adjusted life year gained.[1]
- The combination of all-trans retinoic acid plus arsenic trioxide was more cost-effective than all-trans retinoic acid plus idarubicin.[1]
- The incremental cost-effective ratio for all-trans retinoic acid plus arsenic trioxide was $4512 per life year saved and $5614 per quality-adjusted life year gained.[1]
