The updated analysis, consistent with a 2021 assessment, utilized the ICER AnalyticsTM LN model and found LUPKYNIS to be below the $150,000 willingness-to-pay threshold, costing $88,076 per QALY and $77,643 per evLYG for adults with active LN. For Black, Hispanic, and Latino patients, costs were $77,436 per QALY and $67,828 per evLYG. Additional data from the AURORA clinical program and the Enlight-LN registry highlighted the drug's sustained efficacy and reduced steroid use over three years. A propensity analysis indicated superior proteinuria reduction and decreased exposure to toxicities versus high-dose glucocorticoid regimens.
