Effectiveness and Cost-Effectiveness of 360 Disease-Modifying Treatment Escalation Sequences in Multiple Sclerosis

Matthijs M. Versteegh et al.

Summary: This study compared 360 different treatment sequences for patients with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS) in terms of health outcomes and societal costs. The results showed that the optimal treatment sequence for maximizing health outcomes was not necessarily the most cost-effective option. Treatment decisions should be individually tailored.

Health economics of disease-modifying therapy for multiple sclerosis in the United States

Daniel M. Hartung

Summary: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic neuroinflammatory condition that is associated with significant disability. The high and rising prices of disease-modifying therapies (DMTs) for MS are a major driver of healthcare expenditures. The cost burden of DMTs negatively affects both healthcare systems and patients.
