The guideline scenario analyses therefore represent another key strength of the present study, as these analyses were designed to follow the intensification thresholds defined by NICE to the letter, rather than the real-world threshold used in the base case analysis, and immediate oral semaglutide use was shown to be cost-effective in all of these scenarios.12 Moreover, based on the projected reduced incidence of diabetes-related complications with immediate oral semaglutide and a recently published analysis by Fordham et al , which replaced the costs of diabetes-related complications in the IQVIA Core Diabetes Model with carbon dioxide equivalent emissions for each complication, early oral semaglutide use would likely lead to reduced carbon emissions versus a 2-year delay.59 Use of a more clinically realistic treatment algorithm and intensification approach required modification of key modelling assumptions that were not in line with any previous cost-effectiveness analysis of oral semaglutide, and use of these assumptions could be seen as a limitation.23 24 57 For example, the duration of poor glycaemic control in patients receiving metformin plus an SGLT-2 inhibitor prior to enrolment in PIONEER 4 was unclear, with an assumption that these patients reflected those experiencing clinical inertia in the UK
