Abstract

Background: Edoxaban, a novel oral anticoagulant, has been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of venous thromboembolism (VTE) due to its outstanding advantages in terms of efficacy and safety [1]. However, in the same situation with other NOACs, high drug cost of edoxaban is a barrier in clinical prescribing. Therefore, the cost-effectiveness of edoxaban needs to be evaluated to consider appropriate healthcare policies that increase the patient's access to treatment in the context of limited health budgets. Currently, in Vietnam, the cost – effectiveness of edoxaban has not yet been fully studied. Research Methods: Cost-effectiveness analysis has been conducted with modelling study design using Markov model from the Vietnamese healthcare payer perspective. Input parameters were collected from literature review, clinical expert opinion and tender results at the time of the study. Results: LMWH/edoxaban increased QALY when being compared to rivaroxaban and LMWH/dabigatran with 0,032 và 0,042 QALY, respectively  and saved 0.82 million and 0.65 million VND in life-time horizon. Conclusion: From Vietnamese healthcare payer perspective, LMWH/edoxaban was dominant compared to rivaroxaban and LMWH/dabigatran in treatment of VTE.
