monotherapy (monotherapy regimen) in the treatment of central precocious puberty (CPP). METHODS From the societal
perspective and based on a real-world study conducted at West China Second Hospital of Sichuan University, the cost-effectiveness
analysis was performed to compare the long-term cost-effectiveness of two pharmacotherapy regimens for CPP girls, with final
height as outcome indexes, using per capita disposable income of rural residents and urban residents (20 133-49 283 yuan) in 2022
as the social willing-to-pay (WTP) threshold. The robustness of the basic analysis result was verified by using one-way sensitivity
analysis and probability sensitivity analysis, and the cost-effectiveness of different combinations of long-acting preparations was
compared using scenario analysis. RESULTS The basic analysis result showed that the combination therapy regimen required an
additional cost of 25 193.49 yuan for every one-centimeter improvement in the final height of girls with CPP compared with the
monotherapy regimen, which was not cost-effective for residents in rural areas, but it was cost-effective for residents in urban
areas. One-way sensitivity analysis showed that the uncertain factors with potential impacts on the results were, in order, the price
of rhGH, the final height of pediatric patients in the combination therapy regimen group, the course of rhGH in the combination
therapy regimen group, and the final height of pediatric patients in the monotherapy regimen group. Probabilistic sensitivity analysis
indicated that the probability of the combination therapy regimen being cost-effective was higher than that of the monotherapy
regimen when WTP was more than 26 010 yuan/cm. When GnRHa long-acting preparation was used for intramuscular injection
every 3 months, the combination therapy regimen was not cost-effective for rural residents, but was cost-effective for urban
residents; when rhGH long-acting preparation was injected subcutaneously once a week, the combination therapy regimen was not
cost-effective for residents in both rural areas and urban areas. CONCLUSIONS The combination of GnRHa and rhGH is only
recommended for CPP children with better affordability to improve final height. The benefits, risks, and affordability of treatment
should be comprehensively considered before the decisions on pharmacotherapy, to avoid abuse of rhGH due to the blind pursuit of
height growth.
