Abstract PD6-09: Cost effectiveness of bilateral prophylactic mastectomy with and without different breast reconstruction techniques versus screening in women with high risk of breast cancer in the Canadian Province of Ontario

Abstract

Abstract Purpose: We aimed to investigate the cost-effectiveness of mastectomy with and without different reconstruction for the purpose of determining which strategies represent value for money and identify the most cost-effective technique from the perspective of Ontario's health care system. Methods: We developed a decision analytic model to project the lifetime clinical and economic consequences of different strategies .The decision model was parameterized using 10-year follow up and cost data from Ontario administrative health databases and Ontario Cancer registry and utility data from secondary Canadian sources. Costs are presented in 2018 Canadian dollars. Future costs and benefits were discounted at 5%. Results: Compared to organized screening-based strategy, surgical strategies ranged from being more effective and cost-saving and up to being associated with an incremental cost effectiveness ratio (ICER) of $63,010 per quality-adjusted life year (QALY) gained, with BPM with immediate one-stage acellular dermal matrix (ADM)-assisted implant breast reconstruction having the greatest incremental QALY of 1.157 and lowest ICER of $9,615. Incorporating the PBM with one-stage ADM-assisted implant immediate breast reconstruction as the standard surgical strategy in Ontario would result in the largest total annual net gains of 20 QALYs and $ 1.7 million.

BPM with and without reconstruction is likely both clinically and economically attractive. However ,all other things being equal , BPM with immediate one-stage ADM-assisted implant breast reconstruction is the most cost effective strategy and appears to offer the highest value for money.
