Abstrakt: | Aim: Assess the real-world effectiveness of systemic anticancer therapy in advanced (unresectable or metastatic) melanoma. Methods: This was a retrospective cohort study linking routine healthcare data with systemic anticancer therapy prescriptions for patients starting immunotherapy or targeted treatments between 1 November 2010 and 31 December 2017 in the west of Scotland. Results: Among 362 patients identified, median overall survival varied between 18.5 months (95% CI: 14.4-not estimable) for ipilimumab/nivolumab combination and 5.6 months (95% CI: 4.5-7.3) for dabrafenib, but there were differences in the characteristics of each regimen cohort. Raised lactate dehydrogenase levels and Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status ≥2 negatively impacted overall survival. Conclusion: The patients had a shorter median overall survival than those in pivotal trials. This was expected, given that this real-world cohort included patients with poorer prognostic indicators, typically excluded from trials. |
