Estimating regimen-specific costs of chemotherapy for breast cancer: observational cohort study.
The objective of the current study was to generate cost estimates for guideline-concordant adjuvant chemotherapy regimens from payers' and patients' perspectives in a large, insured US population. It concluded that the costs of breast cancer chemotherapy vary widely across regimens, and patients bear a substantial out-of-pocket burden.
