Exploratory analysis of the economically justifiable price of reslizumab for asthma severe in Colombia.
Article in BMC public health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
introductionAsthma severe imposes important economic burden for health systems, especially with the incorporation of new drugs. Recently, reslizumab has been approved to prevent exacerbations in patients with eosinophilic asthma. This study evaluates the price at which reslizumab would be considered economically justified for patients with severe asthma in Colombia. MATERIALS AND
methodsA model was developed using the microsimulation to estimate the quality-adjusted costs and life years of two interventions: reslizumab versus not applying standard treatment without reslizumab. This analysis was made during a time horizon of 50 year and from a third payer perspective.
resultsBased on thresholds of U$4828, U$ 5128, and U$19 992 per QALY evaluated in this study, we established economically justifiable drug acquisition prices at each WTP were U$ 106, U$ 165, and U$ 349 per dose of reslizumab. Reslizumab not was cost-effective using a WTP of U$4828, U$ 5128 and U$19 992 per QALY.
conclusionThe economically justifiable cost for reslizumab in Colombia is between U106 to U$349per dose, depending on the WTP used to decide its implementation. This result should encourage more studies in the region that optimize decision-making processes when incorporating this drug into the health plans of each country.
