Estimating health related quality of life effects in vitiligo. Mapping EQ-5D-5 L utilities from vitiligo specific scales: VNS, VitiQoL and re-pigmentation measures using data from the HI-Light trial
2023
Overview
Background
Vitiligo is reported to affect 2% of the world’s population and has a significant impact on health related quality of life (HRQoL). The relationship between HRQoL and clinical outcomes used in vitiligo require further examination. Mapping condition specific measures of HRQoL: vitiligo specific quality of life instrument (VitiQoL), vitiligo noticeability scale (VNS) and vitiligo re-pigmentation scores (RPS) to the EQ-5D have not yet been reported.
Methods
Data collected from a randomised clinical trial (HI-Light) in vitiligo was used to develop mapping algorithms for the EQ-5D-5 L and the relationship between HRQoL, clinical outcomes and EQ-5D were investigated. Two EQ-5D-5 L value sets (Van Hout and Alava) using linear and non-linear models were considered. Logistic regression models were used to model the probability of vitiligo noticeability (VNS) in terms of RPS, EQ-5D and VitiQoL scores.
Results
Mapping from RPS appeared to perform better followed by VNS for the Alava crosswalks using polynomial models: Mean observed vs. predicted utilities of 0.9008 (0.005) vs. 0.8984 (0.0004) were observed for RPS. For VNS, mean observed vs. predicted utilities of 0.9008 (0.005) vs. 0.8939 (0.0003) were observed. For VitiQoL, mean observed vs. predicted utilities of 0.9008 (0.005) vs. 0.8912 (0.0002) were observed. For patients with the least re-pigmentation (RPS < 25%), a Total VitiQoL score of about 20 points gives around an 18% chance of vitiligo being no longer or a lot less noticeable.
Conclusion
The algorithm based on RPS followed by VNS performed best. The relationship between effects from vitiligo specific HRQoL instruments and clinical RPS was established allowing for plausible clinically relevant differences to be identified, although further work is required in this area.
