Abstract

Methods The ARCTIC trial randomised patients with previously untreated Chronic Lymphocytic Leukaemia to receive fludarabine, cyclophosphamide, mitoxantrone and low dose rituximab (FCM-miniR) or fludarabine, cyclophosphamide and rituximab (FCR; standard care). An interim efficacy analysis was conducted after 103 patients had completed therapy. CEA and VOIA were conducted using a Markov decision model, based on subsequent data from 200 patients.

Highlights

  • Trial interim analyses are traditionally based on an assessment of efficacy and safety

  • To assess the potential utility of early cost-effectiveness analysis (CEA) and value of information analysis (VOIA) within the context of a randomised clinical trial

  • An interim efficacy analysis was conducted after 103 patients had completed therapy
