4 Quebec PID network Structure Goals Achievements

5 1. Diagnosis and treatment of PID patients 2. Développement of new therapeutic options: home therapy for antibody deficient and HAE patients 3. Development of protocols for therapies and follow-ups 4. National register 5. Teaching

6 Quebec PID network Structure Goals Achievements Home therapy for PID Home therapy for HAE

7 Home therapy for PID To convince the health authorities to move ahead Economical arguments mostly= less expensive To establish the teaching and supervision program To enroll the regional blood banks to provide better services for patients from remote areas

8 Home therapy Comparison of Advantages Subcutaneous No venous access required Intravenous Convenient and well tolerated by most patients Slow administration and gradual absorption reduces severe headaches and other adverse events Ability to give large volumes per infusion allows intermittent dosing (every days) Maintains more consistent IgG levels; eliminates low troughs Clinical efficacy recognized: annual rate as expected Excellent safety profile Facilitates self or home infusion, increasing patient autonomy may improve patient s selfimage and sense of control Less expensive for society and patient Berger M. Clin Immunol. 2004;112:1-7.

9 Comparaison: IV (hosp) SC (home) IVIG hospital based SCIG home based Garduf et al 14,124 4,636. US$ 1993 Hogy direct and indirect 31,027 14,893 Euro 2003 Liu 18,600 11,760 Euro 2005 Haddad 14,304 18,216 Euro

10 Economical Impact Government perspective CADTH report Economy of 9 millions CDN$ / Year if 75% of patients on IVIg are switched to SCIg Economy of 700$ / patient (Tubing and pumps included) Ho C. Et al Overview of subcutaneous vs IV for PID: systematic Review and Economic Analysis Canadian Agency for Drug and Technologies in Health 2008

11 Methods of administration PUMP Method: an ambulatory infusion pump or syringe driver is used to infuse the dose as described in the product monograph Frequency: Weekly dose Weekly Dose: ¼ monthly IVIg dose Patient can be ambulatory during administration PUSH Method: pushing the product using small doses regularly has been used in some US and Canadian centres Frequency: every day, every 2-3 days, 5 days/wk, etc Daily Dose: weekly dose divided in vial sizes or number of treatment days required Input from patients should be considered when choosing a regimen Once patient has learned how to self-administer, nursing services may not be needed

12 Economical Impact Government perspective CADTH report Economy of 9 millions CDN$ / Year if 75% of patients on IVIg are switched to SCIg Economy of 700$ / patient (Tubing and pumps included) Much better with the PUSH technique no pump and minimal tubing Ho C. Et al Overview of subcutaneous vs IV for PID: systematic Review and Economic Analysis Canadian Agency for Drug and Technologies in Health 2008

13 Economical advantage of the PUSH method over the PUMP method Pump Method Push method Pump $2000 $0 Ancillary products (Tubing + syringes) Training (nursing time) $800 $ sessions 2-3 sessions
