“…Sensitivity analysis shows that this vaccine combination would be favorable in nearly all scenarios Nguyen et al, 2021 32 | United States | Adults 18–64 years of age | Compared with QIVe for the entire population, the authors estimated the CE of QIVc in those 18–64 years of age | Dynamic age-structured SEIR transmission model | Societal | 3 years | QIVe = $17.22QIVc = $24.22 Hospitalization, GP visit Lostwork days | US Dollar ($), year not reported | QIVc versus QIVe was 26.8% (95% CI: 14–37) 26 | Life years and QALYs lost were discounted | PSA | QIVc was dominant (ICER –$10,400/QALY). Base case scenario assumed 3 years of mismatch out of 5 years | QIVc was more effective and cost-saving than QIVe, validated by sensitivity analyses |
Chi et al, 2023 33 | Taiwan | Children and adolescents 6 months–17 years of age | Replacing QIVe with QIVc in children and adolescents 6 months–17 years of age | 1-year age-stratified static decision tree | Payer and societal perspective (two base case analyses) | 1 year | QIVc unit cost assumed 25% higher than QIVe Outpatient, ER visit, hospitalization, transportation costs Loss of productivity | US Dollar ($), 2022 | QIVc versus QIVe against all influenza strains was 8.1% 34 | 3% annualized inflation rate applied | DSA and PSA | ICER was $68,298/QALY and $40,085/QALY from payer and societal perspectives, respectively. WTP threshold was $99,177/QALY | Switching from QIVe to QIVc in Taiwanese children and adolescents is predicted to significantly reduce the influenza-associated disease burden and be cost-effective in Taiwan. |
