Outline of Final Research Achievements

To clarify the cost-effectiveness of chemotherapy for advanced pancreatic cancer, this study first conducted a network meta-analysis and an electronic medical record survey at the National Cancer Centre East Hospital to calculate efficacy parameters derived from clinical trials and actual clinical practice. Next, to calculate the parameters of QoL values and direct medical costs in Japan, a QoL survey study of the general public and physicians and a medical cost estimation study using the receipt database were conducted. Finally, the collected parameters were integrated, and a cost-effectiveness analysis of primary chemotherapy used in Japan for advanced pancreatic cancer was conducted on the respective aspects of clinical trials and actual clinical data, which revealed the position of the treatment regimens used in Japan, considering the impact of QoL and economic efficiency.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

進行性膵がんは先進国で最も死亡率の高い癌腫の1つであり、幾つかの全身化学療法における治療選択肢が存在するものの、必ずしも有効性の優位性のみで治療レジメンが選択されているわけでは無く、安全性及び利便性を加味した治療選択がなされている。本研究では、本邦で推奨される進行性膵がんにおける一次化学療法の費用効果分析を実施することで、患者のQoLに与える定量的な影響及び経済性への影響を包括的に評価した。本研究成果は査読付きの英文雑誌への投稿を3報実施済み(更に2報が査読中)であり、国内及び国外の学会発表をそれぞれ5件及び2件実施し、本研究の成果を広く発表できた。
