Ovarian Epithelial Cancer
Conditions
Brief summary
No structured organization for ovarian first line management emerges in France. Management across France seems to depend on regional contexts. Regions display no specific organization or delineate regional network for the ovarian cancer management or report centralized management revolving around referent centers. These different templates present a major problem in identifying differences, costs and benefit. To deal with this issue the Investigators propose a health economic evaluation based on cost-effectiveness analyses, completed with a budget impact analysis. This study will investigate the cost-effective management of patients with initial ovarian cancer using databases representative of different parts of French territories.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Incremental cost-effectiveness ratio expressed in cost per relapse-free year gained | 2 years after diagnosis | To perform a cost-effectiveness analysis in order to evaluate the most efficient organization for ovarian cancer in 1st line ot treatment |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Incremental cost-effectiveness ratio expressed in cost per QALY(Quality-Adjusted Life Year) gained. | 2 years after diagnosis | — |
| Budget impact analysis | 2 years after diagnosis | Cost assessment performed retrospectively for each patient: hospital stays, visits and other health-related costs will be identified and measured based on the French national Health Insurance perspective. QALY (Quality-Adjusted Life Year) |
| Relapse-free survival (RFS) | RFS will be assessed 2 years after diagnosis | — |
