摘要: Oncology therapeutics have entered a new era, with the recent approval by US Food and Drug Administration of 16 novel targeted agents. In many instances, these agents led to breakthroughs in cancer care, such as imatinib for treatment chronic myeloid leukemia bevacizumab colorectal, lung, breast cancers. Toxicities are also novel-no longer primarily resulting hematologic, gastrointestinal, skin toxicities. As all innovative therapies, price tags substantial, ranging from mean per person annual cost $13,000 $100,000 cases. Despite high drugs, value has been important. this paper, we review concepts effectiveness they apply provide some initial insights on economics oncology drugs.
