Subject to notice of rights. The content in this publication is owned by multiple parties and may not be re-used without the permission of the relevant copyright owner. This slide set is the pre-meeting briefing for this appraisal. It has been prepared by the technical team with input from the committee lead team and the committee chair. It is sent to the appraisal committee before the committee meeting as part of the committee papers. It summarises: – the key evidence and views submitted by the companies, the consultees and their nominated clinical experts and patient experts and – the Assessment Group report It highlights key issues for discussion at the first appraisal committee meeting and should be read with the full supporting documents for this appraisal. Please note that this document is a summary of the information available before comments on the assessment report have been received. The lead team may use, or amend, some of these slides for their presentation at the committee meeting. 2 Key issues (1) N.B. Avatrombopag does not currently have an agreed list price. Therefore the clinical effectiveness of avatrombopag can be considered, but the cost effectiveness will be considered at a later meeting. For now, the AG have assumed the list price is the same as lusutrombopag • What treatments do patients currently receive in clinical practice? – When are platelets indicated? – Are any other prophylactic treatments given? – What types of rescue therapy are given? • How soon before surgery would a patient be eligible for treatment with avatrombopag/lusutrombopag? • What affects risk of a bleed with invasive procedure in people with thrombocytopenia? • Are the trial protocols generalisable to UK treatment pathway? • How do differences between trials affect – Robustness of results from network meta analysis? 3 Key issues (2) • Platelet transfusions are a large cost in the model. What volume (or “adult therapeutic dose”) would be given in clinical practice? • What is the expected mortality due to platelet transfusion in people with chronic liver disease? • Indirect analyses show almost no statistically significant differences between the 2 therapies for key outcomes. Should the model assume there are differences? • In clinical practice, operations may be cancelled if the patient is not fit enough. Should this carry a sunk cost in the model? • What proportion of patients currently receive platelet transfusions prior to surgery in clinical practice? • Is there evidence that some people become refractory to platelet transfusion? • These are the first oral treatments for this disease area. Can the treatments be considered innovative? – Are there benefits not captured in the model • e.g. avoidance of blood products, which are more difficult for the NHS logistically compared with an oral treatment, and carry more risk of infection? • The AG base case suggests that the treatment is highly cost-ineffective. However, this is driven by very small utilities, making the ICER unstable 4 Disease background: thrombocytopenia • Reduced number of circulating platelets in blood – Normally classified as platelet count <150,000/µL of blood – This increases risk of excessive bleeding • Common complication of chronic liver disease because of: – The disease itself – A consequence of interferon-based antiviral therapy following liver infection • Severe thrombocytopenia increases risk of excessive bleeding during liver transplantation or procedures such as liver biopsy • Prevalence among people with chronic liver disease estimated 15 to 70%, depending on stage of disease and differences in thrombocytopenia definition 5 Current treatments • No other licensed treatments • Therapies include stimulation of megakaryocyte maturation and platelet production • Options for severe thrombocytopenia include platelet transfusion, splenic artery emoblisation and splenectomy • NICE clinical guideline (CG24) recommends considering platelet transfusion before an invasive procedure or surgery to raise platelet count above: – 50,000/µL for any type of patient – 50,000-75,000/µL for patients with high risk of bleeding, depending on procedure, aetiology, whether platelet count is stable, any other cause of abnormal haemostasis – 100,000/µL in critical sites, e.g. central nervous system (including posterior segment of the eyes) No standard risk assessment algorithm or prophylactic treatment protocol People with Assess risk of Treat with platelet Have Have rescue chronic liver bleeding with transfusion as invasive therapy to disease and planned invasive needed procedure stop a bleed if thrombocytopenia procedure needed Lusutrombopag or 6 avatrombopag? Professional organisation submissions (1) British Society of Gastroenterology: • Variable disease management across the NHS because: – lack of clear evidence base – poor understanding of platelet function in liver disease • Thrombocytopenia in advanced liver disease usually seen with cirrhosis with portal hypertension; can be permanent and progressive • Avatrombopag and lusutrombopag would act as a substitute to prophylactic platelet transfusion, advantages of this are: – gradual and predictable increase in platelet count (in outpatient care) – sustained elevation in platelet count – avoids use of a blood product (limited national resource, potential for cross contamination and potential serious adverse effects) – hypothetical advantage of stopping delayed bleeding after procedures 7 Professional organisation submissions (2) British Association of the Study of the Liver (endorsed by Royal College of Physicians): • No alternative drug therapies; current treatment is platelet transfusion at time of procedure • No consensus about whether platelet transfusion reduces risk for medium or small procedures • Avatrombopag and lusutrombopag could be used for all cirrhotic patients with thrombocytopaenia who require an intervention • As these are new technologies experience in use and monitoring of dose/ duration required 8 CONFIDENTIAL Interventions Lusutrombopag (Mulpleta) Avatrombopag (Doptelet) Company Shionogi Inc Dova Pharmaceuticals Mechanism of Small molecule thrombopoietin receptor agonist, stimulates platelet action production Marketing “treatment of severe thrombocytopenia in adult patients with chronic liver authorisation disease… “…undergoing invasive procedures” (lusutrombopag) “…who are scheduled to undergo an invasive procedure” (avatrombopag) Administration Oral administration: Oral administration: and dose • 3mg* for 7 days • 60mg if baseline platelet count • Baseline count <50,000/µL <40,000/µL • 40 mg if baseline platelet count is 40,000 to <50,000/µL For 5 days Timing of 9 days after start of treatment 10 to 13 days after start of treatment procedure Price £x for seven days of 3 mg TBC: AG assumes same as lusutrom *Assessment Group reports lusutrombopag results by subgroups based on avatrombopag dosing regimen 9 Decision problem Final NICE scope Assessment group Population Adults with thrombocytopenia Population split into 2 subgroups to allow associated with chronic liver disease comparison of lusutrobopag with the 2 needing an elective procedure doses of avatrombopag, platelet count: • <40,000/µL • 40,000 to <50,000/µL Interventions • Avatrombopag Stated that avatrombopag and • Lusutrombopag lusutrombopag are used alongside established clinical management Comparators Established clinical management Established clinical management (including, but not limited to platelet (including, but not limited to platelet transfusion) transfusion)

  • Tranexamic Acid in the Treatment of Residual Chronic Subdural Hematoma: a Single-Centre, Observer-Blinded, Randomized Controlled Trial (Trace)
    TRANEXAMIC ACID IN THE TREATMENT OF RESIDUAL CHRONIC SUBDURAL HEMATOMA: A SINGLE-CENTRE, OBSERVER-BLINDED, RANDOMIZED CONTROLLED TRIAL (TRACE) by Adriana Micheline Workewych A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Master of Science Institute of Medical Science University of Toronto © Copyright by Adriana Micheline Workewych 2018 TRANEXAMIC ACID IN THE TREATMENT OF RESIDUAL CHRONIC SUBDURAL HEMATOMA: A SINGLE-CENTRE, OBSERVER-BLINDED, RANDOMIZED CONTROLLED TRIAL (TRACE) Adriana Micheline Workewych Master of Science Institute of Medical Science University of Toronto 2018 ABSTRACT Chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH) is a frequent consequence of head trauma, particularly in older individuals. Given the aging of populations globally, its incidence is projected to increase substantially. Hyperfibrinolysis may be central to CSDH enlargement by causing excessive clot degradation and liquefaction, impeding resorption. The only current standard treatment for CSDH is surgery, however, up to 31% of residual hematomas enlarge, requiring reoperation. Tranexamic acid (TXA), an antifibrinolytic medication that prevents excessively rapid clot breakdown, may help prevent CSDH enlargement, potentially eliminating the need for repeat surgery. To evaluate the feasibility of conducting a trial investigating TXA efficacy in residual CSDH, we conducted an observer-blinded, pilot randomized controlled trial (RCT). We showed this trial was feasible and safe, reporting only minor to moderate AEs, and an attrition rate of 4%. The results from this study will inform the conduct of a double-blinded RCT investigating TXA efficacy in post-operative CSDH management. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS First, I would like to thank my supervisor Dr. Michael Cusimano, my mentor for nearly six years. You have always given me more opportunity than I could have ever hoped for – I could not ask for a more dedicated teacher.

  • Immune Thrombocytopenia in Adults: Modern Approaches to Diagnosis and Treatment
    Published online: 2019-12-12 275 Immune Thrombocytopenia in Adults: Modern Approaches to Diagnosis and Treatment Hanny Al-Samkari, MD1 David J. Kuter, MD, DPhil1 1 Division of Hematology, Massachusetts General Hospital, Harvard Address for correspondence Hanny Al-Samkari, MD, Division of Medical School, Boston, Massachusetts Hematology, Massachusetts General Hospital, Suite 118, Room 112, Zero Emerson Place, Boston, MA 02114 Semin Thromb Hemost 2020;46:275–288. (e-mail: [email protected]). Abstract Immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is an autoimmune bleeding disorder affecting approximately 1 in 20,000 people. Patients typically present with clinically benign mucocutaneous bleeding, but morbid internal bleeding can occur. Diagnosis remains clinical, possible only after ruling out other causes of thrombocytopenia through history and laboratory testing. Many adult patients do not require treatment. For those requiring intervention, initial treatment of adult ITP is with corticosteroids, intravenous immunoglobulin, or intravenous anti-RhD immune globulin. These agents are rapid- acting but do not result in durable remissions in most patients. No corticosteroid has Keywords demonstrated superiority to others for ITP treatment. Subsequent treatment of adult ► platelets ITP is typically with thrombopoietin receptor agonists (TPO-RAs; romiplostim or ► immune eltrombopag), rituximab, or splenectomy. TPO-RAs are newer agents that offer an thrombocytopenia excellent response rate but may require prolonged treatment. The choice between ► diagnosis subsequent treatments involves consideration of operative risk, risk of asplenia, drug ► treatment side-effects, quality-of-life issues, and financial costs. Given the efficacy of medical ► corticosteroids therapies and the rate of spontaneous remission in the first year after diagnosis, ► intravenous splenectomy is frequently deferred in modern ITP treatment algorithms.
