Cost-effectiveness

3 sourced ICERs · 2006–2011

Base case ICER stated as a band. ICER increases to $45,000–$75,000/QALY when no growth of anal and oropharyngeal cancer is assumed after 2014.

The PBAC observed that all the clinical uncertainties flowed into the modelled economic evaluation, but that the sensitivity analyses provided did not permit a full assessment of the impact of the clinical uncertainties. PBAC · 2011
