Extended dosing of monoclonal antibodies in multiple sclerosis

Zoe L. E. van Kempen et al.

Summary: Over the past two decades, there has been a significant increase in treatment options for patients with multiple sclerosis (MS). Personalized or extended interval dosing, particularly using monoclonal antibodies, is being increasingly explored as a way to optimize MS therapy. Studies on altered dosing intervals of monoclonal antibodies in MS treatment are ongoing and provide promising insights for future research and clinical practice.

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.

Summary: This review proposes six steps to reduce the risks of anti-CD20 therapy, including adequate infectious screening and vaccinations, upfront discussion of family planning, management of infusion reactions, prevention of adverse events, measurement of immunoglobulin levels and review of vaccinations, participation in breast cancer screening programs, and evidence-based dosing and retreatment approaches.

The Economic Burden of Multiple Sclerosis in the United States Estimate of Direct and Indirect Costs

Bruce Bebo et al.

Summary: This study estimates the total economic burden of multiple sclerosis (MS) in the United States in 2019. The findings show that MS has a significant impact on various aspects of patients' lives, including work, physical independence, and social interaction. The study highlights the high cost of prescription drugs and the indirect loss of productivity as important drivers of the economic burden of MS.

Safety and efficacy of rituximab versus dimethyl fumarate in patients with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis or clinically isolated syndrome in Sweden: a rater-blinded, phase 3, randomised controlled trial

Anders Svenningsson et al.

Summary: Rifund-MS study provides evidence that rituximab is superior to dimethyl fumarate in preventing relapses in patients with early relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis. Adverse events such as infusion reactions and gastrointestinal reactions were observed, but there were no safety concerns.

Ublituximab versus Teriflunomide in Relapsing Multiple Sclerosis

Lawrence Steinman et al.

Summary: Ublituximab shows promise as a treatment for relapsing multiple sclerosis, reducing relapse rates and brain lesions compared to teriflunomide over a 96-week period. However, it does not significantly decrease the risk of disability worsening.

Simulated treatment comparison of efficacy outcomes for ofatumumab in ASCLEPIOS I/II versus ocrelizumab in OPERA I/II for the treatment of patients with relapsing multiple sclerosis

Imtiaz A. Samjoo et al.

Summary: This study aimed to indirectly compare the efficacy of ofatumumab and ocrelizumab in patients with relapsing multiple sclerosis. While no significant differences were found in disability progression, ofatumumab showed a significant improvement in annualized relapse rate compared to ocrelizumab. Additionally, ofatumumab demonstrated favorable results in terms of no evidence of disease activity and MRI outcomes.

Cost-Effectiveness Analysis of Ofatumumab for the Treatment of Relapsing-Remitting Multiple Sclerosis in Canada

Moogeh Baharnoori et al.

Summary: Ofatumumab is cost effective in first-line treatment for RRMS, showing superiority over teriflunomide, interferons, dimethyl fumarate, and ocrelizumab in terms of effectiveness and cost. Compared to glatiramer acetate and best supportive care, Ofatumumab has an incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER) of $24,189/QALY and $28,014/QALY respectively. At a willingness-to-pay threshold of $50,000/QALY, Ofatumumab has a 64.3% probability of being cost effective. In the scenario analysis of second-line therapies, Ofatumumab dominates natalizumab and fingolimod and has an ICER of $50,969 versus cladribine.

Comparison of the Efficacy and Safety of Anti-CD20 B Cells Depleting Drugs in Multiple Sclerosis

Kelly R. Cotchett et al.

Summary: This article compares the similarities and differences between Rituximab, ocrelizumab, ofatumumab, and ublituximab in the treatment of multiple sclerosis, discussing their efficacy, safety, route of administration, and cost considerations. Ocrelizumab is the only drug approved for primary progressive MS, while infusion/injection related reactions are common adverse events among all four therapies. Ofatumumab stands out for its subcutaneous injection availability, and ublituximab shows promising results in phase II trials for RMS treatment, with phase III trials comparing its efficacy to teriflunomide.

Clinical Perspectives on the Molecular and Pharmacological Attributes of Anti-CD20 Therapies for Multiple Sclerosis

Amit Bar-Or et al.

Summary: Anti-CD20 therapies have shown significant efficacy in treating multiple sclerosis by depleting B cells and subsets of T cells expressing low levels of CD20. Further understanding of the implications of the different monoclonal antibodies used is crucial for optimizing treatment outcomes.

Modeling the Cost-Utility of Treatment Sequences for Multiple Sclerosis

Simone Huygens et al.

Summary: A cost-utility model for multiple sclerosis considering treatment switching was developed to provide more realistic estimates of treatment benefits. Short-term treatment switches were predicted accurately, with the escalation DMT sequence showing delayed disease progression. Model results were sensitive to utility values and medical resource consumption.
