Article Abstract
Hemophilia A is rare, which makes large, randomized, controlled, statistically driven, head-to-head comparison trials difficult. Matching-adjusted indirect comparisons (MAICs) are validated statistical tools designed to help make the results of non-comparative trials more comparable. The purpose of this commentary is to provide an insight into the MAIC method, in order to assist the hemophilia community with interpretation of MAIC data. It includes a comparison of the findings from previously published MAICs comparing recombinant factor replacement options and their methodologies. As MAICs are being used more often to compare treatment options for patients with hemophilia A, it is paramount that robust and consistent methodologies for cross-trial comparisons are used and that all efficacy analysis findings are linked to factor utilization.

Comparative Effectiveness of Valoctocogene Roxaparvovec and Efanesoctocog Alfa in the Treatment of Severe Hemophilia A: A Matching-Adjusted Indirect Comparison of Bleeding Frequency.

Introduction: Hemophilia A, an X-linked recessive bleeding disorder, is characterized by reduced factor VIII (FVIII) activity. Hemophilia A can significantly impact a person's quality of life because of the risk of spontaneous bleeding. Treatment for hemophilia A aims to prevent bleeding from occurring.

Background: In the absence of a head-to-head trial of off-the-shelf subcutaneous epcoritamab, a novel CD3xCD20 bispecific antibody, versus chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy (CAR T), a matching-adjusted indirect comparison (MAIC) of epcoritamab versus axicabtagene ciloleucel (axi-cel) efficacy was conducted in patients with relapsed/refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) with ≥ 2 prior lines of systemic therapy.
Methods: The MAIC used epcoritamab patient-level data from EPCORE NHL-1 (NCT03625037; April 2023 data cutoff) and axi-cel aggregated data from ZUMA-1 (NCT02348216). Patients without prior CAR T were matched to the ZUMA-1 population; weighted regression models were used to estimate absolute differences in overall response rate (ORR) and complete response (CR) rate, and weighted Cox proportional-hazards models were used to estimate hazard ratios (HRs) for progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS).
Matching-adjusted indirect comparison of ribociclib + nonsteroidal aromatase inhibitor versus abemaciclib + endocrine therapy in hormone receptor-positive/HER2-negative early breast cancer.

Ribociclib + nonsteroidal aromatase inhibitor (NSAI) and abemaciclib + endocrine therapy (ET) are approved for high-risk hormone receptor-positive/human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative (HR+/HER2-) early breast cancer based on data from the NATALEE and monarchE trials, respectively. No trials have directly compared efficacy and safety of adjuvant ribociclib and abemaciclib. This study compared relative efficacy and safety of adjuvant ribociclib + NSAI versus abemaciclib + ET using matching-adjusted indirect comparison (MAIC).

The comparative efficacy of newer oral agents, such as deucravacitinib, versus traditional first-generation biologics has not been characterized in the treatment of scalp psoriasis. This study indirectly compared the long-term efficacy of deucravacitinib versus that of adalimumab for the treatment of scalp psoriasis.

Background: Antitachycardia pacing (ATP) therapy, available in modern implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICD) and cardiac resynchronization therapy defibrillators (CRT-D), aims to terminate ventricular arrhythmias without administering high energy shocks. The intrinsic ATP (iATP) algorithm automates ATP programming in real-time, tailoring therapy based on previous ATP attempts. This study evaluated the safety, efficacy, and clinical outcomes of iATP in patients from Japan and South Korea.
