Cost-Effectiveness of First-Line Nivolumab Plus Ipilimumab Combination Therapy in Advanced Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer in Japan

Xiuting Mo et al.

Summary: This study evaluated the cost-effectiveness of NIV + IPI combination therapy compared to chemotherapy in the treatment of advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in Japanese settings. The results showed that compared to chemotherapy, NIV + IPI therapy incurred additional costs and conferred additional QALYs, resulting in an ICER above the willingness-to-pay threshold from the perspective of the Japanese healthcare system. Sensitivity analyses showed generally consistent results.

Global cancer statistics 2020: GLOBOCAN estimates of incidence and mortality worldwide for 36 cancers in 185 countries

Hyuna Sung et al.

Summary: The global cancer burden in 2020 saw an estimated 19.3 million new cancer cases and almost 10.0 million cancer deaths. Female breast cancer surpassed lung cancer as the most commonly diagnosed cancer, while lung cancer remained the leading cause of cancer death. These trends are expected to rise in 2040, with transitioning countries experiencing a larger increase compared to transitioned countries due to demographic changes and risk factors associated with globalization and a growing economy. Efforts to improve cancer prevention measures and provision of cancer care in transitioning countries will be crucial for global cancer control.

Nivolumab versus chemotherapy in Japanese patients with advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma: a subgroup analysis of a multicenter, randomized, open-label, phase 3 trial (ATTRACTION-3)

Masanobu Takahashi et al.

Summary: The efficacy and safety of nivolumab versus chemotherapy in Japanese patients with advanced ESCC were evaluated in the ATTRACTION-3 trial. Nivolumab demonstrated favorable efficacy and safety compared to chemotherapy in the Japanese subpopulation, with longer OS and DOR, and similar ORR but lower DCR. Subgroup analysis consistently favored nivolumab over chemotherapy in terms of overall survival.
