Assessing the cost effectiveness of pre-exposure prophylaxis for HIV prevention in the US.
In order to assess the cost-effectiveness of pre-exposure prophylaxis for HIV prevention in the U.S., the author evaluates various studies and finds that they yield widely varying estimates of the cost per quality-adjusted life year (QALY) gained, and that this variations reflects the substantial uncertainty surrounding the determinants of HIV transmission as well as different approaches to translating a reduction in HIV cases into an estimate of the increase in the number of QALYs.
