Dupixent® for COPD Delivers Across the Board
GCEA suggests Dupixent’s societal benefits for COPD should outweigh its cost even at US market-based pricing over the exclusivity period
Based on our societal impact analysis, we anticipate that Dupixent for COPD will have a positive impact on all 24 value elements. Patients living with inadequately controlled chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and an eosinophilic phenotype now have a new treatment option. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved dupilumab (Dupixent®, Regeneron and Sanofi) on September 27th, 2024.
For individuals living with inadequately controlled COPD and an eosinophilic phenotype, Dupixent is expected to result in fewer exacerbations, longer length of life, better quality of life, less uncertainty in health outcomes, and more labor and non-labor productivity. For caregivers, Dupixent is expected to result in less time caregiving and positive impacts on a caregiver’s quality of life. For the health system, Dupixent is expected to reduce costs associated with exacerbations. And for society, we now have a new treatment option for COPD that may result in scientific spillovers and future biosimilars offering value to society long after its branded period.
Our generalized cost-effectiveness analysis suggests Dupixent’s societal benefits should outweigh its US cost (even at US market-based pricing over the exclusivity period) for COPD.
