Abstract

Daratumumab was approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 2015 in the treatment of multiple myeloma [3] and its clinical efficacy has been confirmed through many studies around the world [6]. However, cost-effectiveness is a factor to consider when prescribing drugs in clinical practice, especially in countries with limited health budgets like Vietnam. In cost-effectiveness analysis, model building is an important step, especially since no research has been conducted in Vietnam. With the modeling method, the cost – effectiveness analysis model has been built based on Microsoft Excel 2013 software with model structure. The model allows evaluating the cost – effectiveness of daratumumab versus standard therapy in treating multiple myeloma in Vietnam.
