Assessment of Whether the American Society of Clinical Oncology's Value Framework and the European Society for Medical Oncology's Magnitude of Clinical Benefit
ASCO, ESMO, value frameworks, randomized controlled trials, ASCO-CBS, ESMO-PMCBG
The ASCO-VF and ESMO-MCBS frameworks currently lack the ability to measure absolute survival benefit, which limits their effectiveness in comparing clinical benefits across different drugs and in establishing value. The authors of the ASCO framework have acknowledged the need for both relative and a…
