Original Research

Noteworthy comment: Most economic evaluation models compare a new patented drug (NPRx) to a generic comparator. The objective of this study was to examine the impact on the ICER of the future introduction of lower cost generic versions of the a new patented drug (NPRx) within the model’s time horizon. ICER estimated within economic evaluations comparing NPRx to generic comparators which ignore the future introduction of lower cost generic versions of the NPRx within the model’s time horizon will tend to be overestimated. Inclusion of this parameter should be considered within future economic evaluations.
