N2 - (ICER) of £44,954 per QALY gained. The probability of testing being cost-effective at a threshold of £30,000 per QALY was 0.25. Reduced costs of testing or febuxostat resulted in an ICER below £30,000 per QALY gained. The ICER for patients with chronic renal insufficiency was £38,478 per QALY gained. Conclusion: Routine testing for HLA-B*58:01 in order to reduce the incidence of adverse drug reactions in patients being prescribed allopurinol for gout is unlikely to be cost-effective in the UK; however testing is expected to become cost-effective with reductions in the cost of genotyping, and with the future availability of cheaper, generic febuxostat.
