Incidence and Predictors of Switching and Dose Change of Direct Oral Anticoagulants among Elderly Patients with Nonvalvular Atrial Fibrillation: A 5-Year Analysis of a Large Administrative Database
In the last decade, novel oral anticoagulants (NOACs) have emerged as prominent therapeutic options in non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF). We analysed the clinical burden and the switching rate between all available NOACs, and their dosage change over a period of 5 years in a representative population of patients with NVAF aged between 70 and 75… Leggi tutto »Incidence and Predictors of Switching and Dose Change of Direct Oral Anticoagulants among Elderly Patients with Nonvalvular Atrial Fibrillation: A 5-Year Analysis of a Large Administrative Database
Analysis of drug utilization in patients with psoriasis: a real-world retrospective study among the Italian population

Epidemiology, Patients’ Journey and Healthcare Costs in Early-Stage Non-Small-Cell Lung Carcinoma: A Real-World Evidence Analysis in Italy
This real-world analysis aims to estimate the epidemiology and economic burden related to early-stage non-small-cell lung carcinoma (eNSCLC) in the clinical practice Italian setting. An observational analysis was performed using administrative databases linked to pathological anatomy data, covering around 2.5 mln health-assisted individuals. From 2015 to mid-2021, eNSCLC patients staged II–IIIA treated with chemotherapy after… Leggi tutto »Epidemiology, Patients’ Journey and Healthcare Costs in Early-Stage Non-Small-Cell Lung Carcinoma: A Real-World Evidence Analysis in Italy
Healthcare Resource Consumption and Related Costs in Patients on Antiretroviral Therapies: Findings from Real-World Data in Italy
This real-world analysis conducted on administrative databases of a sample of Italian healthcare entities was aimed at describing the role of therapeutic pathways and drug utilization in terms of adherence, persistence, and therapy discontinuation in HIV-infected patients under antiretroviral therapies (ART) and Tenofovir Alafenamide (TAF)-based regimens on healthcare resource consumption and related direct healthcare costs. Between 2015 and 2019, adults (≥18 years) prescribed with TAF-based therapies were identified and characterized in the year prior to the first prescription (index-date) for TAF-based therapies and followed-up until the end of data availability. Overall, 2658 ART-treated patients were included, 1198 of which were under a TAF-based regimen. TAF-based therapies were associated with elevated percentages of adherence (83.3% patients with proportion of days covered, PDC > 95% and 90.6% with PDC > 85%) and persistence (78.5%). The discontinuation rate was low in TAF-treated patients, ranging from 3.3% in TAF-switchers to 5% in naïve. Persistent patients had lower overall mean annual healthcare expenditures (EUR 11,106 in persistent vs. EUR 12,380 in non-persistent, p = 0.005), and this trend was statistically significant also for costs related to HIV hospitalizations. These findings suggest that a better therapeutic management of HIV infection might result in positive clinical and economic outcomes.
Italian real-world analysis of the impact of polypharmacy and aging on the risk of multiple drug-drug interactions (DDIs) in HCV patients treated with pangenotypic direct-acting antivirals (pDAA)
Purpose: The study aims at investigating the impact of polymedication and aging in the prevalence of multiple drug-drug interactions (DDIs) on HCV patients treated with sofosbuvir/velpatasvir (SOF/VEL) or glecaprevir/pibrentasvir (GLE/PIB). Patients and Methods: This is a retrospective analysis based on administrative data covering around 6.9 million individuals. Patients treated with SOF/VEL or GLE/PIB over November… Leggi tutto »Italian real-world analysis of the impact of polypharmacy and aging on the risk of multiple drug-drug interactions (DDIs) in HCV patients treated with pangenotypic direct-acting antivirals (pDAA)
Real-world analysis of outcomes and economic burden in patients with Chronic Kidney Disease with and without Secondary Hyperparathyroidism among a sample of the Italian population
This real-world analysis evaluated the clinical and economic burden of non-dialysis-dependent CKD patients with and without secondary hyperparathyroidism (sHPT) in Italy. An observational retrospective study was conducted using administrative databases containing a pool of healthcare entities covering 2.45 million health-assisted individuals.

The Economic Burden of Chronic Myeloid Leukemia in Patients with Later Lines: Findings from a Real-World Analysis in Italy
Introduction: Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is a hematopoietic myeloproliferative disorder that accounts for 20% of all leukemias of adults. The introduction of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) (imatinib, bosutinib, dasatinib, nilotinib, ponatinib) has yielded significant benefits for patients with CML in terms of survival and quality of life. This real-world analysis evaluated the economic burden for managing… Leggi tutto »The Economic Burden of Chronic Myeloid Leukemia in Patients with Later Lines: Findings from a Real-World Analysis in Italy
