Cost-effectiveness of brentuximab vedotin in relapsed or refractory systemic anaplastic large cell lymphoma.
2016
18 Background: Systemic anaplastic large cell lymphoma (sALCL) is a rare T-cell lymphoma. For patients who fail front-line therapy, outcomes are poor and there is no current defined standard of care. Brentuximab vedotin has demonstrated high objective response rates and is approved for patients with relapsed or refractory (R/R) sALCL. However, the cost-effectiveness of brentuximab vedotin compared with conventional chemotherapy has not been explored. Methods: A lifetime Excel-based partitioned survival model was used to compare survival outcomes from the pivotal phase-2 single-arm brentuximab vedotin trial of 58 R/R sALCL patients with good Eastern Corporative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status after one or more prior therapies (SG035-0004); with 40 sALCL patients from a Canadian cancer registry receiving first-line conventional salvage chemotherapy (65% with ECOG 0 or 1) between 1980 and 2012 and followed for up to 20 years. Extrapolation of brentuximab vedotin survival after the trial period assum...
