> “We evaluated relative cost-effectiveness of these therapies in patients with mCRC from a US payer’s perspective.”
> “A partitioned survival model (PSM) was constructed to estimate total costs and quality-adjusted life years (QALYs).”
> “The model comprised of three health states: Pre-disease progression, post-disease progression, and death.”

> “On the other hand, ReDo had a negligible cost difference ($130,821 versus $130,902), when compared with fruquintinib, and a slightly better QALY (0.576 versus 0.517), resulting in ReDO dominant over fruquintinib.”
> “Under the conventional willingness-to-pay (WTP) threshold in US ($150,000 per QALY gained), ReDO was cost-effective when compared with TAS-BEV and was dominant over fruquintinib.”
> “In patients with prior anti-VEGF therapy, ReDO remained cost-effective compared to TAS-BEV and fruquintinib under the conventional WTP threshold.”

> “Costs and QALYs were discounted at an annual rate of 3.5%, in line with NICE guidance.”
> “Trifluridine/tipiracil was associated with a 0.27 incremental life year versus BSC alone, which corresponds to a 0.17 quality-adjusted life year gain.”
> “The incremental cost of treatment with trifluridine/tipiracil was £8,479, resulting in an incremental cost-effectiveness ratio of £51,194 per quality-adjusted life year gained.”

#### Utility weights for progression-free and post-progression disease and adverse events, metastatic colorectal cancer: Kashiwa and Matsushita (2020)

Relevance: Utilities for progression-free and post-progression metastatic colorectal cancer and for adverse events, extracted from published studies.

Access: Not open access

Not quoted: The utility weights are reported in the full text, which this page does not quote.

> “Efficacy data, utility values, and costs were extracted from published studies.”
> “The health outcomes were life-years (LYs) and quality-adjusted life-years (QALYs) gained.”

#### Utility weights for progression-free and progressive disease, hand-foot skin reaction, and diarrhea, metastatic colorectal cancer: Guan et al. (2021)

Relevance: Utilities for progression-free and progressive metastatic colorectal cancer and disutilities for hand-foot skin reaction and diarrhea in a model of fruquintinib against regorafenib.

Access: Free full text

> “Utilities applied to calculate the quality-adjusted life years (QALYs) were obtained from literature review.”
> “The utility of patients in the PFS state was set at a value of 0.78, and the utility of patients in the PD state was estimated at a value of 0.69”
> “hand-foot syndrome would last for 14 days and the disutility was −0.116.”
> “Diarrhea would last for five days and the disutility was −0.103”
> “The duration-adjusted disutility was subtracted from the baseline utility to calculate the overall utility of each health state.”

#### Utility weights by treatment received, metastatic colorectal cancer: Bullement et al. (2018)

Relevance: EQ-5D utilities for metastatic colorectal cancer by treatment received: best supportive care, trifluridine/tipiracil, or regorafenib.

Access: Free full text

> “We used utilities derived from the index scale measure in our model in line with NICE guidance”
> “EQ-5D-3L utilities from the CORRECT study were reported as 0.73 and 0.74 for patients who received regorafenib plus BSC and placebo plus BSC, respectively, at baseline, and 0.59 for both patient groups at the end of treatment.”
> “These utility values were used to directly inform patient HRQL in each of the model health states considered (as shown in Figure 1), by applying the baseline values for pre-progressive patients and the post-treatment values for patients in post-progressive disease (after which all patients discontinue treatment).”
> “Utility values from the CORRECT study implied a small disutility (−0.01) for patients who have not yet progressed and are actively receiving treatment with regorafenib, which we applied in our model to account for the potential decrement in HRQL associated with receiving active treatment with either trifluridine/tipiracil or regorafenib”
