Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Distribution of Healthcare costs for patients treated with oral drugs used in the first-line treatment of Metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC) | Up to 63 months | All-cause healthcare costs will be calculated in the first-line oral cohort as per-patient-per-month (PPPM) costs. |
| Composite of Resource Utilization for patients treated with oral drugs used in the first-line treatment of mRCC | Up to 63 months | Total numbers and rates of inpatient, outpatient, and emergency room visits per patient will be calculated. |
| Distribution of Healthcare costs for patients treated with IV drugs used in the first-line treatment of mRCC | Up to 63 months | All-cause healthcare costs will be calculated in the first-line IV cohort as per-patient-per-month (PPPM) costs. |
| Composite of Resource Utilization for patients treated with IV drugs used in the first-line treatment of mRCC | Up to 63 months | Total numbers and rates of inpatient, outpatient, and emergency room visits per patient will be calculated. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Medication Possession Ratio (MPR) for patients treated with oral drugs used in the first-line treatment of mRCC | Up to 63 months | MPR will be calculated for each index drug as the ratio of the sum of the total number of days' supply to the total number of days in the follow-up period. |
| Medication Possession Ratio (MPR) for patients treated with IV drugs used in the first-line treatment of mRCC | Up to 63 months | MPR will be calculated for each index drug as the ratio of the sum of the total number of days' supply to the total number of days in the follow-up period. |
