Mashup Score: 0Cost–effectiveness analysis of serplulimab as first-line treatment for advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma | Immunotherapy - 9 month(s) ago
Objective: To evaluate the cost–effectiveness of serplulimab as first-line treatment for patients with advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma from the perspective of the Chinese healthcare system. Materials & methods: A partitioned survival model was created to evaluate costs and health outcomes. The model’s robustness was evaluated using one-way and probabilistic sensitivity analyses. Results: Serplulimab demonstrated an incremental cost–effectiveness ratio of $104,537.375/quality-adjusted life-year in the overall population group. Subgroup analysis showed that serplulimab had incremental cost–effectiveness ratios of $261,750.496/quality-adjusted life-year and $68,107.997/quality-adjusted life-year in the populations with PD-L1 1 ≤ combined positive score <10 and PD-L1 combined positive score ≥10, respectively. Conclusion: Incremental cost–effectiveness ratios of serplulimab therapy were found to exceed the willingness-to-pay threshold of $37,304.34. Thus, serplulimab is not cost

However, the usefulness of AVS at the expense of cost and complications is debated, and many institutions have independent protocols that use AVS to varying degrees. Methods Cost-effectiveness of AVS- vs…
