  1. aNOMA utilised a 10-year time horizon, while the TLV time horizon was confidential. We therefore chose to undertake the analyses using a 10-year time horizon
  2. bThe TLV analyses were undertaken in a population with ≥ 2 prior prophylactics and 30% stopping rules. There is no available data for this combination of population and stopping rule for Botox. The NOMA analysis was however undertaken in a population of ≥ 3 prior prophylactics. We chose to undertake the analyses the ≥ 3 prior prophylactics population, and to use the 30% stopping rule, as NOMA argued for the importance of this specific rule
  3. cThe CGRP analyses utilised utilities mapped from MSQ to EQ-5D, based on clinical trials
