Cost-Effectiveness Analysis of Camrelizumab Versus Chemotherapy as Second-Line Treatment of Advanced or Metastatic Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma

Background: This study aimed to analyze the cost effectiveness of camrelizumab in the second-line treatment of advanced or metastatic esophageal squamous cell carcinoma in China.Methods: On the basis of the ESCORT clinical trial, a partitioned survival model was constructed to simulate the patient’s...

One-way sensitivity and probability sensitivity analyses were performed to test the stability of the model.Results: Treatment of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma with camrelizumab added 0.36 QALYs and resulted in an incremental cost of $1,439.64 compared with chemotherapy, which had an ICER of $3,999 per QALY gained. The ICER was far lower than the threshold of willingness to pay for one time the GDP per capita in China.
