Allocating treatment resources for hepatitis C in the UK: a constrained optimization modelling approach by Ru Han, Shuyao Liang, Clément François, Samuel Aballea, Emilie Clay, Mondher Toumi

“…Scenario analyses were performed to assess the robustness of model results. Results: Within the constraints of no additional funding over original spending in status quo and the consideration of the issue of equity among populations, the optimal allocation from the constrained optimization modelling (treating 13,122 PWID, 160 MSM, and 904 general patients with ombitasvir-paritaprevir-ritonavir-dasabuvir) was found to treat 2,430 more patients (relative change: 20.7%) and avert 78 liver-related deaths (relative change: 0.3%) compared with the current allocation. …”
