Abstract

These findings should be interpreted within the context of a large degree of uncertainty and of several study limitations that include a single clinical trial as the source for primary treatment assumptions and a single province as the source for most cost inputs. Under current study assumptions and limitations, insulin glargine plus OADs was projected to be a cost-effective option, compared with premixed insulin only, for the treatment of insulin-naive patients with type 2 diabetes unresponsive to OADs. Additional work is needed to examine the generalizability of the findings to individual jurisdictions of the Canadian healthcare system. Copyright Adis Data Information BV 2010
