1. Is it time to replace warfarin with novel oral
anticoagulants (NOACs) for treating thrombotic disorders?

Background
• Warfarin has been the gold standard for venous thromboembolism (VTE)
treatment and stroke/systemic embolism prophylaxis in patients with
nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) for the past 50 years.1,2
• Within the past few years, NOACs such as edoxaban, apixaban,
rivaroxaban, and dabigatran have emerged as the preferred treatment
due to their favorable pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and
minimal adverse events.1,2
Objective
• A decision tree was constructed for each of the indications: VTE
treatment and stroke/systemic embolism prophylaxis in NVAF patients.
• Each tree compared five therapies: edoxaban, apixaban, rivaroxaban,
dabigatran, and warfarin.
• The transition probabilities were derived from their respective phase 3
clinical trials.
• Costs were derived from various literature sources with a one-year time
frame.
Methods
Model Inputs
Clinical Trial Summary
To determine the cost-effectiveness of the NOACs versus warfarin from a
managed care organization (MCO) perspective.

Conclusions
Contact
• Apixaban had the lowest average yearly cost of $7,755.91, followed
by warfarin ($7,864.46), dabigatran ($8,903.02), edoxaban
($9,557.37), and rivaroxaban ($10,630.41).
• Effectiveness was measured by treatment response without a major
bleeding or CRNMB event. Warfarin had the lowest efficacy of 0.87,
followed by rivaroxaban (0.88), edoxaban (0.89), dabigatran (0.91),
and apixaban (0.94).
• For VTE treatment, apixaban is the most cost-effective option due
to its superior price and efficacy profile, therefore it should be
added to the MCO formulary for this indication.
• For stroke/systemic embolism prophylaxis in NVAF patients,
apixaban is the most efficacious option, but warfarin is the least
expensive option.
• From a cost effectiveness viewpoint, warfarin should not be
replaced by the NOACs because it demonstrates good value, but for
those seeking the most efficacious treatment, apixaban should be
the drug of choice.
