Cost-utility analysis of sequential therapies for pediatric-onset eosinophilic esophagitis. [PDF]

J Pediatr Gastroenterol Nutr
Abstract Objectives Topical corticosteroids, proton‐pump inhibitors (PPI) and elimination diets (ED) are equally recommended as first‐line therapies for pediatric eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE). Dupilumab (DUP) is usually used for refractoriness. We aim to assess the cost‐utility of all potential sequential treatments for EoE.
