Cost per responder of adalimumab biosimilars versus methotrexate in patients with psoriasis: a real-life experience.

The real-life cost-effectiveness of biosimilar drugs is largely influenced by discount rates. The week 52 cost-effectiveness of Idacio is comparable to subcutaneous methotrexate. The lowering of the cost of biosimilar drugs makes them a more accessible therapeutic option and they also can be introduced earlier in the treatment of moderate-to-severe psoriasis.
