“…Finally, even when applied to the Spanish setting (assuming a 10% discount of Benepali ® vs. Enbrel), this budget impact model showed that a more rapid uptake of Benepali ® (market share = 20%, 40%, and 60% at year 1, 2, and 3, respectively) resulted in a greater saving (€ 24.5 mln over 3 years) vs. a slower adoption rate (market share = 10%, 20%, and 30% at year 1, 2, and 3, respectively, saving over 3 years: € 12.3 mln) [28]. Similar results were achieved by CT-P13 (the first biosimilar to infliximab) in two economic models built by Jha et al [29] and Brodszky et al [30]. The budget impact performed by Jha et al [29], which considered both switch and naïve patients, showed that, during the first year after launch in Germany, UK, Italy, the Netherlands, and Belgium, CT-P13 was associated with a potential savings equal to € 25.789, € 51.578, and € 77.367 in the three discount scenarios considered (10, 20 and 30%, respectively) and for all the indications approved.…”
