Abstract

The medical-economic evaluation of lung cancer management, in recent years, unavoidable. The burden of disease constantly increases, with values doubling almost every 10 years. The financial impact will be even greater with the new molecules put on the market (target therapies and check points inhibitors). The methodology of medicoeconomics studies must be adapted to these therapeutic innovations.This work presents the global costs of lung cancer management, the costs by stages (localized, locally advanced and metastatic) and the cost of innovations, especially targeted therapeutics and immunotherapies. A better knowledge of medico-economic studies allows to better understand the market access issues of these new molecules and helps in selecting the most appropriate strategy according to populations managed.
