Abstract
Reimbursement reviews are comprehensive assessments of the clinical effectiveness and cost-effectiveness, as well as patient and clinician perspectives, of a drug or drug class. The assessments inform nonbinding recommendations that help guide the reimbursement decisions of Canada’s federal, provincial, and territorial governments, with the exception of Quebec. This review assesses pembrolizumab (Keytruda), 100 mg/4 mL, vial solution for infusion. Indication: In combination with fluoropyrimidine and platinum–containing chemotherapy, is indicated for the first-line treatment of adult patients with locally advanced, unresectable, or metastatic HER2-negative gastric or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma.
