Objectives: This study was aimed to systematically review published economic studies to determine whether dapagliflozin, a sodium-glucose co-transporter inhibitor, plus standard care therapy (SCT) is cost-effective in heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF).Method: We searched relevant keywords in PubMed, Scopus, Web of science, and Google Scholar to find related articles. Costs, QALYs, ICERs were extracted from eligible studies.Results: Ten studies finally included in the systematic review. The results of quality assessment of the study showed that a reasonable quality of all studies. Incremental QALYs were in favor of dapagliflozin plus SCT treatment regimen. In all the studies, the incremental costs per QALY was below the willingness-to-pay (WTP) threshold with the exception of one study in United Kingdom which the ICER and WTP were $83,650 and $50,000. All the studies determined the National Health Care perspective. The highest and lowest ICERs were $83,650 and $1991 per QALY in United Kingdom and Thailand, respectively.Conclusion: Results of cost-effectiveness analyses showed that adjunct dapagliflozin plus SCT is cost-effective compared to SCT alone despite the additional costs of the drug. Finally it can be concluded that dapagliflozin is a worldwide cost-effective as an adjunct medicine in HFrEF management.
