#### Nusinersen and onasemnogene abeparvovec versus best supportive care in spinal muscular atrophy, United States: ICER (2019)

Relevance: Evaluates onasemnogene abeparvovec, a systemic AAV9 gene therapy listed among the price benchmarks in section 4.1, and nusinersen against best supportive care in spinal muscular atrophy from a United States health care sector perspective.

> “We developed three de novo economic models that evaluated the cost-effectiveness of Spinraza and Zolgensma, each compared to best supportive care (BSC), from a US health care sector perspective for patients with SMA, in alignment with ICER’s Value Assessment Framework for Ultra Rare Diseases. The models included 1) one for symptomatic patients with infantile-onset (Type I) SMA; 2) one for symptomatic patients with later-onset (Type II/III) SMA; and 3) one for presymptomatic SMA patients.”
> “For each population, we estimated the lifetime costs, life years gained, and quality adjusted life years (QALYs) gained, discounted at 3% per annum, for Spinraza and BSC.”
> “Results for Zolgensma were derived using a placeholder price of $2,000,000. Both interventions resulted in more QALYs and life years gained relative to BSC, resulting in incremental cost effectiveness ratios of approximately $1.1 million per QALY for Spinraza and approximately $243,000 per QALY for Zolgensma.”
> “Spinraza $2,231,000 $1,653,000 $3,884,000 3.24 7.64 $1,112,000 $590,000 BSC $0 $789,000 $789,000 0.46 2.40”

> “Scenario analyses incorporated frameworks suggested by the Institute for Clinical and Economic Review for single or short-term transformative therapies.”
> “Base-case analysis showed that at a cost of US$3.5 million, EDZ led to lifetime cost savings of US$11 million and an additional 0.64 quality-adjusted life years (QALYs) compared with FIX.”
> “When annual cost offsets attributed to EDZ were capped at US$150,000, EDZ was found to have a threshold price of US$3.1 million at a willingness-to-pay of US$150,000 per QALY.”
> “EDZ proved to be a dominant strategy over FIX prophylaxis in the base-case scenario, providing large cost savings and slightly better outcomes.”

> “a hypothetical cohort (age 10–15 years) with dilated cardiomyopathy and symptomatic heart failure receiving outpatient medical management with or without an ICD”
> “The model adhered to the recommendations of the Panel on Cost-Effectiveness in Health and Medicine by examining costs from a societal perspective and applying a 3% annual discount to both costs and health benefits.”
> “Time horizon was up to 20 years from model entry.”
> “All costs were adjusted using the gross domestic product deflator method and reported in 2006 US dollars.”
> “Total per patient costs were $433,000 for the ICD strategy and $355,000 for typical management. Quality adjusted survival was greater for the ICD strategy relative to typical management (6.78 years vs. 6.43 years). Under base-case assumptions, the incremental cost utility ratio for the ICD strategy, as compared to typical management, was $281,622 per quality-adjusted life year (QALY) gained.”
> “The ICD strategy cost less than $100,000/QALY only when the annual probability of sudden death as an outpatient exceeded 13% or when the ICD improved the patient’s quality of life by a utility of ≥ 0.11.”

Relevance: Evaluates implantable cardioverter-defibrillators and amiodarone for primary prevention of sudden cardiac death in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy in Canada; section 2 states that management of Danon disease is extrapolated from hypertrophic cardiomyopathy guidelines.

> “Using a Markov model, we compared the health benefits and cost-effectiveness of 3 strategies for the primary prevention of SCD: implantable cardioverter/defibrillator (ICD) insertion, amiodarone therapy, or no therapy. We modeled hypothetical cohorts of 45-year-old patients with HCM with no history of cardiac arrest but at significant risk of SCD (3%/y).”
> “Over a lifetime, compared with no therapy, ICD therapy increased quality-adjusted survival by 4.7 quality-adjusted life years (QALYs) at an additional cost of $142,800 ($30,000 per QALY), whereas amiodarone increased quality-adjusted survival by 2.8 QALYs at an additional cost of $104,900 ($37,300 per QALY).”
> “Compared with no therapy, ICD therapy would cost < $50,000 per QALY for patients (i) aged 25, with > or = 1 risk factors for SCD, and (ii) aged 45 or 65, with > or = 2 risk factors for SCD.”

#### Sudden cardiac death risk thresholds for implantable cardioverter-defibrillator implantation versus observed practice in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, United Kingdom: Green et al. (2024)

Relevance: Evaluates sudden cardiac death risk thresholds for defibrillator implantation in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy from a United Kingdom National Health Service provider perspective; section 2 records that these risk models are not validated in Danon disease.

> “A discrete-time Markov model was used to determine the cost-effectiveness of different ICD decision-making rules for implantation. Several scenarios were investigated, including the reference scenario of implantation rates according to observed real-world practice.”
> “The time horizon for simulated patient follow up was set at 12 years from time of ICD implant”
> “A UK National Health Service (NHS) health service provider perspective was taken and only costs directly incurred by the NHS were included”
> “The discount rate used was the standard 3.5% for both costs and utilities.”
> “Cox 5-year SCD risk >4% 3569 1670 7.73 −0.04 −38 616 −2750 Cox 5-year SCD risk >6% 1925 26 7.80 0.03 834 747”
> “We found that for a 12-year time horizon and WTP threshold of £25 000 in the primary analysis, the decision rule in the observed data is more cost-effective than the 4% 5-year SCD risk threshold regardless of the size of budget since it is both more costly and more harmful in total (ICER −£38 616/QALY). The 6% SCD risk threshold is cost-effective (ICER £834/QALY) with up to approximately 70% probability and even at small WTP values.”

Relevance: Evaluates mavacamten with standard of care against standard of care alone in obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy from a Dutch societal perspective, with health states defined by NYHA class.

> “A Markov model was developed in R based on the Decision Analysis in R for Technologies in Health framework with data from the EXPLORER-HCM trial.”
> “For the model, four health states were defined based on the NYHA classes, including NYHA I-NYHA III/IV and death. The model evaluated mavacamten with SoC versus SoC alone over a lifetime horizon with a cycle length of 4 weeks, following the most recent Dutch guidelines.”
> “The objective was to develop a decision analytic model to evaluate the cost effectiveness of mavacamten compared with SoC in oHCM patients from a Dutch societal perspective.”
> “Results indicate mavacamten being more effective (Δ4.75 LYs; Δ3.36 QALYs) and more costly (Δ€235,951) compared with SoC with an ICER of €70,223 per QALY gained.”
> “The probability of the intervention being cost effective at the willingness-to-pay thresholds €50,000 and €80,000 per QALY was 1.3% and 87.4%, respectively.”

Relevance: Evaluates proband genetic testing added to periodic clinical screening in Australian families with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy; section 2 quotes the company's plan to multiply Danon disease diagnoses through the family cascade.

> “A probabilistic Markov decision model was used to determine cost per quality-adjusted life-year and cost for each life-year gained when genetic testing is included in the management of Australian families with HCM, compared with the conventional approach of periodic clinical screening alone.”
> “The incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER) was $A785 (£510 or €587) per quality-adjusted life-year gained, and $A12 720 (£8261 or €9509) per additional life-year gained making genetic testing a very cost-effective strategy.”
> “As the cost of proband genetic testing decreased, the ICER decreased and was cost saving when the cost fell below $A248 (£161 or €185).”
