- W2000556721 abstract "Background The cost of new anti-cancer drugs has dramatically increased in recent years, and countermeasures are required in order to limit pharmaceutical expenses. Sponsored clinical trials that provide drugs free of charge may be a useful tool in order to reduce drug costs. The aim of this analysis is to evaluate the effect of clinical trials on pharmaceutical expenditure savings. Methods We evaluated the cost of drugs administered in clinical practice and in clinical trials (considering only the standard regimens that were administered also in clinical practice) in 2010 at the Lung Cancer Unit of the National Institute for Cancer Research in Genoa, Italy. The cost of drugs was calculated on the price charged at our Institute in 2010. The supposed cost of experimental treatment replacing standard therapy was converted in the cost of the treatments that would have been chosen in clinical practice, considering histology, line of treatment and number of administered cycles. Results From 1/1/2010 to 12/31/2010, 196 patients affected by lung cancer or pleural mesothelioma were treated. 152 patients (78%) received treatment in clinical practice or in non-sponsored trials (18 patients in 4 trials), while 44 (22%) were treated in one of the 12 sponsored clinical trials recruiting in 2010. Globally, 606 cycles of treatment would have been administered to patients, of which 436 (72%) were administered in clinical practice or in non-sponsored trials and 170 (28%) were administered in pharmaceutical company sponsored clinical trials. The overall cost of those anti-neoplastic drugs, based on the prices charged at our Institute in 2010, was €799 803. The cost of drugs administered in clinical practice or in non-sponsored trials was €556 649 (70%), whereas the cost of standard drugs administered in clinical trials was €243 154 (30%). The grants provided by pharmaceutical companies were evaluated and amounted to €235 965. Conclusions The participation in sponsored clinical trials in which drugs are provided free of charge offers substantial cost savings for the National Health Service; moreover, the grants received for each enrolled patient produced additional income." @default.
