PURPOSE In the randomized open-label phase III OVHIPEC trial, the addition of hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) to interval cytoreductive surgery (CRS) improved recurrence-free and overall survival in patients with stage III ovarian cancer. We studied the cost effectiveness of the addition of HIPEC to interval CRS in patients with ovarian cancer. PATIENTS AND METHODS We constructed a Markov health-state transition model to measure costs and clinical outcomes. Transition probabilities were derived from the OVHIPEC trial by fitting survival distributions. Incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER), expressed as euros per quality-adjusted life-year (QALY), was calculated from a Dutch societal perspective, with a time horizon of 10 years. Univariable and probabilistic sensitivity analyses were conducted to evaluate the decision uncertainty. RESULTS Total health care costs were €70,046 (95% credibility interval [CrI], €64,016 to €76,661) for interval CRS compared with €85,791 (95% CrI, €78,766 to €93,935) for interval CRS plus HIPEC. The mean QALY in the interval CRS group was 2.12 (95% CrI, 1.66 to 2.64 QALYs) and 2.68 (95% CrI, 2.11 to 3.28 QALYs) in the interval CRS plus HIPEC group. The ICER amounted to €28,299/QALY. In univariable sensitivity analysis, the utility of recurrence-free survival and the number of days in the hospital affected the calculated ICER most. CONCLUSION On the basis of the trial data, treatment with interval CRS and HIPEC in patients with stage III ovarian cancer was accompanied by a substantial gain in QALYs. The ICER is below the willingness-to-pay threshold in the Netherlands, indicating interval CRS and HIPEC is cost effective for this patient population. These results lend additional support for reimbursing the costs of treating these patients with interval CRS and HIPEC in countries with comparable health care systems.

TPS6100 Background: The addition of Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy (HIPEC) to interval cytoreductive surgery improves recurrence-free and overall survival in patients with FIGO stage III ovarian cancer who are ineligible for primary cytoreductive surgery due to extensive intraperitoneal disease. The effect of HIPEC remains undetermined in patients who are eligible for primary cytoreductive surgery. We hypothesize that the addition of HIPEC to a complete or near-complete (residual disease ≤2.5 mm) primary cytoreductive surgery improves overall survival in patients with FIGO stage III ovarian cancer. Methods: This international, randomized, open-label, phase III trial enrolls patients with newly diagnosed, histological proven FIGO stage III epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer. Patients with resectable umbilical, spleen or local bowel lesions may be included. Following complete or near-complete primary cytoreduction, patients are intra-operatively randomized (1:1) to receive HIPEC or no HIPEC. Patients in both study arms will receive six courses of adjuvant carboplatin-paclitaxel and maintenance PARP-inhibitor or bevacizumab according to current guidelines. The primary endpoint is overall survival. To detect a Hazard Ratio of 0.67 in favor of HIPEC, 200 overall survival events are required. Assuming that accrual will be completed in 60 months, and 12 months additional follow-up, 538 patients need to be randomized. All randomized patients will be included in the analysis for overall survival according to the intention to treat principle. Pre-specified subgroup analyses will be performed based on stratification factors (peritoneal cancer index at start of surgery, completeness of surgery), histologic subtype (high-grade serous versus other), and BRCA mutation (BRCA1/2 mutation versus wildtype). Secondary endpoints are recurrence-free survival, time to first subsequent anticancer treatment, and treatment related complications and toxicity. Exploratory endpoints are time to second subsequent anticancer treatment, health-related quality of life, and cost-effectiveness. The Institutional Review Board of the Netherlands Cancer Institute approved the trial, which is actively enrolling patients since January 2020. Clinical trial information: NCT03772028.
