Medical decision making: Microsimulation versus cohort modelling for assessing type 2 diabetes treatments

Research output: Contribution to conferenceAbstractResearch

Abstract

Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) is associated with high rates of mortality and complications, making it challenging to evaluate new treatments. Health economic models, such as cohort models and microsimulations, are currently available to evaluate new medications. However, it remains unclear which type of modelling is more suitable for evaluating T2DM treatments. Tirzepatide is a new treatment that has demonstrated promising results for glycaemic control in diabetic patients requiring insulin. The aim of this study is to compare the differences between microsimulation and cohort modelling when assessing tirzepatide for treating type-2 diabetes.
