Abstrakt: Introduction: Ciltacabtagene autoleucel (cilta-cel), is a B-cell maturation antigen-directed, genetically modified autologous chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T) immunotherapy. It is indicated for treatment for adult patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) after four or more prior lines of therapy, including a proteasome inhibitor, an immunomodulatory agent, and an anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody. The objective of this study was to estimate the per-patient US commercial healthcare costs related to cilta-cel (CARVYKTI ® ) CAR-T therapy (i.e., costs separate from cilta-cel therapy acquisition) for patients with RRMM.
Methods: US prescribing information for cilta-cel, publicly available data, and published literature were used with clinician input to identify the cost components and unit costs associated with administration of cilta-cel. Cost components included apheresis, bridging therapy, conditioning therapy, administration, and postinfusion monitoring for 1 year of follow-up. Adverse event (AE) management costs for all grades of cytokine release syndrome and neurologic toxicities, and additional AEs grade ≥ 3 occurring in > 5% of patients were included in the analysis.
Results: The estimated per-patient average costs of cilta-cel CAR-T therapy administered exclusively in an inpatient setting, excluding cilta-cel therapy acquisition costs, totaled US$160,933 over a 12 month period. Costs assuming different proportions of inpatient/outpatient administration (85%/15% and 70%/30%) were US$158,095 and US$155,257, respectively.
Conclusion: Cost estimates from this analysis, which disaggregates CAR-T therapy costs, provide a comprehensive view of the cost components of CAR-T therapy that can help healthcare decision-makers make informed choices regarding the use of cilta-cel. Real-world costs may differ with improved AE prevention and mitigation strategies.
