Resource impact summary report

Resource impact summary report

This summary report is based on the NICE assumptions used in the resource impact template. Users can amend the 'Inputs and eligible population' and 'Unit costs' worksheets in the template to reflect local data and assumptions.

Financial and capacity resource impact

The key drivers of resource impact are that:

  • The treatment duration of mirvetuximab soravtansine is longer than most comparator treatments.

  • The administration time for mirvetuximab soravtansine is longer than comparator treatments.

  • There are more adverse events associated with mirvetuximab soravtansine than with comparator treatments but the cost of treating the adverse events is lower.

The company has a commercial arrangement. This makes mirvetuximab soravtansine available to the NHS at a discount.

Users can input the confidential price of mirvetuximab soravtansine and amend other variables in the resource impact template.

The payment mechanism for the technology is determined by the responsible commissioner and depends on whether the technology is classified as high cost.

Table 1 shows the impact on capacity activity in each of the next 3 years.

Eligible population for mirvetuximab soravtansine

Table 2 shows the population who are eligible for mirvetuximab soravtansine and the number of people who are expected to have mirvetuximab soravtansine in each of the next 3 years, excluding forecast population growth.

The uptake for mirvetuximab soravtansine is based on company submission and NHS England submission.

Treatment options for the eligible population

The comparator treatments for the eligible population are paclitaxel, pegylated liposomal doxorubicin and topotecan.

All of the treatment options are administered by IV infusion but some (paclitaxel and topotecan) have multiple administrations per cycle.

For more information about the treatments, such as dose and average treatment duration, see the resource impact template.
