first use of thoracic radiotherapy clinically and cost effective?</p><div id="ch7.s1.1.1"><h4>Introduction</h4><p>New evidence has become available since the previous guideline was published that may have an impact on existing recommendations. A randomised controlled trial (RCT) suggests that some people with extensive-stage SCLC with a partial response to first-line treatment have improved survival if they have thoracic radiotherapy and prophylactic cranial irradiation (PCI) compared to those who have PCI alone (<a class="bibr" href="#ch7.appha.ref3" rid="ch7.appha.ref3">Slotman 2015</a>). Experts advise us that oncologists are already adopting the approach in their practice. Therefore, this review aims to compare thoracic radiotherapy to no thoracic radiotherapy for people with extensive-stage SCLC who have had had first-line treatment with systemic anti-cancer therapies who have had a partial response.</p><div class="iconblock whole_rhythm clearfix ten_col table-wrap" id="figch7tab1"><a href="/books/NBK558775/table/ch7.tab1/?report=objectonly" target="object" title="Table 1" class="img_link icnblk_img figpopup" rid-figpopup="figch7tab1" rid-ob="figobch7tab1"><img class="small-thumb" src="/books/NBK558775/table/ch7.tab1/?report=thumb" src-large="/books/NBK558775/table/ch7.tab1/?report=previmg" alt="Table 1.

(2017) conducted a cost-utility study comparing standard therapy with thoracic radiation therapy versus stand therapy alone for extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (ES-SLCL). Treatment effects were from the Chest Radiotherapy Extensive-Stage Small Cell Lung Cancer Trial (CREST, RCT (Nederlands Trial Register, number NTR1527, n=498). This study is <a class="bibr" href="#ch7.appha.ref3" rid="ch7.appha.ref3">Slotman 2015</a>, which is included in this review. People who participated in CREST had demonstrated a response to induction chemotherapy. Participants were randomised to receive PCI with Thoracic Radiation Therapy (TRT) (n=247) or PCI alone (n=248).</p><p>A partitioned survival model was created to estimate the direct medical costs and QALYs from a US health care payers’ perspective. The base case time horizon was 24 months (consistent with the maximum progression free survival) whilst an additional analysis had a time horizon of the participants’ lifetime. Parametric probability distributions were independently fitted to the estimated individual patient time-to-event for OS and PFS for each treatment group to address uncertainty associated with small patient numbers at the tails of the Kaplan-Meier survival curves. Curve fitting was performed in the R program (R Foundation for Statistical Computing, Vienna, Austria).</p><p>Participants entered the model in the progression free survival health state after completing the induction chemotherapy.</p><p>TRT costs were obtained from the 2016 Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services Physician Fee Schedule (CMSPFS) national payment amount. Post-treatmentt surveillance costs associated with the PFS health state were obtained from the 2016 CMSPFS and included a level 3 established patient office visit, chest and/or abdominal computed tomography scans, and laboratory work every 3 months during years 1 and 2, every 6 months during years 3 through 5, and annually thereafter. At the time of progression, an additional 1-time cost was incurred for workup and restaging of disease that was derived from the relapse patterns reported in the CREST and calculated using the 2016 CMSPFS.</p><p>The model assumed that PPS costs were incurred through the second to last month of life, and the terminal cost was assigned in the last month of life. Costs were inflated to 2016 US dollars using the medical care component of the US Chained Consumer Price Index. A discount rate of 3% was used for costs and outcomes beyond one year.</p><p>Patient preferences for the PFS and PPS health states associated with metastatic lung cancer were obtained from the literature and were elicited from members of the general public using standard gamble techniques (Nafees, 2008). Utility values for metastatic non-SCLC were used as a proxy for the comparable ES-SCLC health states based on available data.</p><p>Results of the study are shown in <a class="figpopup" href="/books/NBK558775/table/ch7.tab2/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-figpopup="figch7tab2" rid-ob="figobch7tab2">Table 2</a> and <a class="figpopup" href="/books/NBK558775/table/ch7.tab3/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-figpopup="figch7tab3" rid-ob="figobch7tab3">Table 3</a>.</p><div class="iconblock whole_rhythm clearfix ten_col table-wrap" id="figch7tab2"><a href="/books/NBK558775/table/ch7.tab2/?report=objectonly" target="object" title="Table 2" class="img_link icnblk_img figpopup" rid-figpopup="figch7tab2" rid-ob="figobch7tab2"><img class="small-thumb" src="/books/NBK558775/table/ch7.tab2/?report=thumb" src-large="/books/NBK558775/table/ch7.tab2/?report=previmg" alt="Table 2.

In the patient life time horizon analysis, the TRT strategy resulted in an ICER of $194,726/QALY. The authors explained this relatively high ICER by highlighting that post-treatment participants who had survived experienced high costs of salvage therapy.</p><p>In the 24 months one-way deterministic sensitivity analysis, the TRT ICER was found to be most sensitive to changes in the parameters of the TRT and ST PFS and OS distributions. In the patient lifetime one-way deterministic sensitivity analysis, the use of alternative PFS distributions resulted in the TRT ICERs ranging from $79,291 to $381,264. For the 24-month time horizon probabilistic sensitivity analysis, TRT was expected to be cost-effective and preferred over the ST strategy in 68%, 81%, and 96% of the simulations at willingness-to-pay thresholds of $50,000/QALY, $100,000/QALY, and $200,000/QALY, respectively. In contrast, when a lifetime horizon was assumed, ST was expected to be cost-effective and preferred over the TRT strategy in 89%, 82%, and 55% of the simulations at willingness-to-pay thresholds of $50,000/QALY, $100,000/QALY, and $200,000/QALY, respectively.</p><p>The authors concluded that by use of the actual follow-up interval reported in the CREST, adding TRT to chemotherapy and PCI strongly dominates a strategy of chemotherapy and PCI alone in participants with ES SCLC. Since the long-term incremental survival benefit of TRT is small relative to ongoing incremental costs to manage progressive metastatic disease, the ICER of TRT is less favourable and situated near the upper boundary of contemporary thresholds for cost-effectiveness when evaluating a lifetime scenario.</p></div></div><div id="ch7.s1.1.7"><h4>Evidence statements</h4><div id="ch7.s1.1.7.1"><h5>For all participants who had at least a partial response to chemotherapy: thoracic radiotherapy + prophylactic cranial irradiation (PCI) vs PCI only</h5><p>Very low to low-quality evidence from 2 RCTs reporting data on 581 people who had at least a partial response found that the data favoured those who had thoracic radiotherapy + PCI for the risk ratio of people still alive at 1.5 and 2 years, hazard ratio for progression and the risk ratio of cancer progression at 3 months compared to people who had PCI. However, the data could not differentiate mortality (all-cause hazard ratio), progression-free survival at 6 months, risk ratio for cancer progression at 1 year and adverse events.</p></div><div id="ch7.s1.1.7.2"><h5>For participants who had a complete extra-thoracic response (and who had either a complete or partial thoracic response to chemotherapy: Accelerated hyperfractionated radiation therapy + carboplatin/etoposide + PCI + 2x cisplatin/etoposide vs 2x cisplatin/etoposide + PCI + 2x cisplatin/etoposide</h5><p>Very low to low-quality evidence from 1 RCT reporting data on 109 people who had a complete extra-thoracic response (and who had either a complete or partial thoracic response) found that the data favoured accelerated hyperfractionated radiation therapy for mortality (risk ratio of people alive at 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 years), the risk ratio of people experiencing nausea and vomiting grade 3 and above, the risk ratio of people experiencing alopecia grade 3 or above and the risk ratio of people experiencing kidney toxicity grade 3 or above compared to people who had no radiation therapy. The data favoured people who had no radiation therapy for the risk ratio of people experiencing oesophageal toxicity grade 3 or above compared to accelerated hyperfractionated radiation therapy. However, the data could not differentiate thoracic recurrence-free survival at 5 years, extra-thoracic metastases-free survival at 5 years, the risk ratio of people experiencing leukopenia grade 3 or above, the risk ratio of people experiencing thrombocytopenia grade 3 or above, the risk ratio of people experiencing anaemia grade 3 or above, the risk ratio of people experiencing infection grade 3 or above, the risk ratio of people experiencing bronchopulmonary toxicity grade 3 or above or the risk ratio of people requiring hospital admission for an adverse event.</p></div><div id="ch7.s1.1.7.3"><h5>Health economics evidence statement</h5><p>One partially applicable partitioned survival model with minor limitations compared thoracic radiation therapy and standard therapy with standard therapy alone for participants with extensive-small cell lung cancer in the US. In the base case 24 month analysis, the thoracic radiation therapy was found to be less expensive and more effective than standard therapy alone, and therefore a dominant treatment strategy. In the life time analysis, the ICER was found to be $194,726 per QALY. The lifetime analysis showed that the difference in the effectiveness of the treatments was 0.09 QALYs (0.16 life years).</p></div></div><div id="ch7.s1.1.8"><h4>The committee’s discussion of the evidence</h4><div id="ch7.s1.1.8.1"><h5>Interpreting the evidence</h5><div id="ch7.s1.1.8.1.1"><h5>The outcomes that matter most</h5><p>The committee agreed that the outcome that matters most is mortality. This is because in the opinion of the committee, the life expectancy for someone with SCLC is generally so short that just a few months of extra life makes a lot of difference.</p><div id="ch7.s1.1.8.1.1.1"><h5>The quality of the evidence</h5><p>The committee agreed that the quality of the evidence was low or very low. The committee agreed that the methods used in <a class="bibr" href="#ch7.appha.ref3" rid="ch7.appha.ref3">Slotman 2015</a> reflect UK practice whereas the methods used in <a class="bibr" href="#ch7.appha.ref2" rid="ch7.appha.ref2">Jeremic 1999</a> and <a class="bibr" href="#ch7.appha.ref1" rid="ch7.appha.ref1">Gore 2017</a> do not. For example, <a class="bibr" href="#ch7.appha.ref3" rid="ch7.appha.ref3">Slotman 2015</a> had a total radiation dose of 30 Gy. By contrast, <a class="bibr" href="#ch7.appha.ref2" rid="ch7.appha.ref2">Jeremic 1999</a> used a total radiation dose of 54 Gy and <a class="bibr" href="#ch7.appha.ref1" rid="ch7.appha.ref1">Gore 2017</a> used a total radiation dose of 45 Gy. <a class="bibr" href="#ch7.appha.ref3" rid="ch7.appha.ref3">Slotman 2015</a> used both 2D and 3D radiotherapy planning techniques but <a class="bibr" href="#ch7.appha.ref2" rid="ch7.appha.ref2">Jeremic 1999</a> did not. The committee agreed that <a class="bibr" href="#ch7.appha.ref3" rid="ch7.appha.ref3">Slotman 2015</a> was better quality than <a class="bibr" href="#ch7.appha.ref1" rid="ch7.appha.ref1">Gore 2017</a>. This is because in <a class="bibr" href="#ch7.appha.ref1" rid="ch7.appha.ref1">Gore 2017</a>, those randomised to the thoracic radiotherapy plus PCI arm were on average 5 years older compared to the PCI only arm (comparing median ages of the two groups). A potential risk of bias in <a class="bibr" href="#ch7.appha.ref3" rid="ch7.appha.ref3">Slotman 2015</a> is that measuring mortality beyond 1 year was not included in the study protocol. However, measuring mortality beyond 1 year is usually normal for cancer studies that include mortality as an outcome.</p></div></div><div id="ch7.s1.1.8.1.2"><h5>Benefits and harms</h5><p>The committee agreed that the recommendation should be a “consider” because there was inconsistency across studies and the benefits of thoracic radiotherapy, such as survival, are experienced by a minority of people who undergo the intervention. For example in <a class="bibr" href="#ch7.appha.ref3" rid="ch7.appha.ref3">Slotman 2015</a>, there is no difference in mortality at 1 year for people who have thoracic radiotherapy and those who do not. However, the data favours thoracic radiotherapy compared to no radiotherapy at 1.5 years and 2 years. This might suggest there is a subgroup of participants who respond to treatment better than others do. However, there is insufficient data to investigate this possibility further.</p><p>The committee agreed that the disadvantage to people receiving thoracic radiotherapy would be the journeys that they would have to make to hospital in order to receive it. However, the committee agreed that this would be outweighed by the advantage of improved survival.</p><p>In <a class="bibr" href="#ch7.appha.ref3" rid="ch7.appha.ref3">Slotman 2015</a> and <a class="bibr" href="#ch7.appha.ref1" rid="ch7.appha.ref1">Gore 2017</a>, the data could not differentiate for adverse events grade 3 or above. However, the investigators did not state that they powered these studies to detect adverse events. In the committee’s experience, some people do experience adverse events but the potential benefit of increased survival is more important to patients.</p><p>In <a class="bibr" href="#ch7.appha.ref2" rid="ch7.appha.ref2">Jeremic 1999</a>, more people receiving thoracic radiotherapy experienced oesophageal toxicity grade 3 or above compared to people who did not have thoracic radiotherapy. However, the total dose of radiation was relatively high at 54 Gy compared to 30 Gy in <a class="bibr" href="#ch7.appha.ref3" rid="ch7.appha.ref3">Slotman 2015</a>, which is more representative of current practice.</p><p>The committee specified that thoracic radiotherapy should be given alongside prophylactic cranial irradiation. This is to match recommendation 1.4.92 and how thoracic radiotherapy was used in all 3 RCTs they reviewed. There was no evidence on the effectiveness of thoracic radiotherapy alone in the 3 RCTs. With regards to recommendation 1.4.92, people who have prophylactic cranial irradiation have improved survival. This was the finding of the study most relevant to UK practice (Slotman 2007).</p><p><a class="bibr" href="#ch7.appha.ref3" rid="ch7.appha.ref3">Slotman 2015</a> was the RCT that most closely resembled current practice. This study involved administering thoracic radiotherapy and PCI to participants who had a partial response at distant sites and within the thorax. Therefore, the committee agreed that the recommendation should reflect this.</p></div></div><div id="ch7.s1.1.8.2"><h5>Cost effectiveness and resource use</h5><p>The Patrice et al 2017 cost-effectiveness analysis that was included in this review was based on the clinical evidence from the <a class="bibr" href="#ch7.appha.ref3" rid="ch7.appha.ref3">Slotman 2015</a> trial. This is a US based analysis so the costs and ICERs are not relevant to the UK context, but, as the underpinning clinical data were based on the <a class="bibr" href="#ch7.appha.ref3" rid="ch7.appha.ref3">Slotman 2015</a> trial and the methods used to calculate QALYs were high quality and not health system specific, the committee considered the estimates of differential QALY gain to be relevant. The committee considered this evidence along with the QALYs only analysis of PCI (<a href="/books/n/niceng122er8/?report=reader" class="toc-item">Evidence Review H</a>) and noted that it was highly likely that offering both interventions together would be cost effective, particularly as much, if not all, of the costs of the intervention can be shared. This means that in many situations, the addition of thoracic radiotherapy to prophylactic cranial irradiation will gain QALYs with a negligible up front resource use. A full discussion of this evidence can be found in Appendix J of <a href="/books/n/niceng122er8/?report=reader" class="toc-item">Evidence Review H</a>.</p><p>According to advice from experts, oncologists in the UK are already adopting the thoracic radiotherapy approach in <a class="bibr" href="#ch7.appha.ref3" rid="ch7.appha.ref3">Slotman 2015</a>. While this recommendation applies to people with a greater range of thoracic response than the previous guideline recommendation, it also specifies that thoracic radiotherapy should only be considered alongside prophylactic cranial irradiation. The committee changed the ‘offer’ recommendation for prophylactic cranial irradiation made in the previous guideline to a ‘consider’, which might lead to a small reduction in its use and therefore the number of situations in which thoracic radiotherapy is considered.

Priority screening</h3><p>The reviews undertaken for this guideline all made use of the priority screening functionality with the EPPI-reviewer systematic reviewing software. This uses a machine learning algorithm (specifically, an SGD classifier) to take information on features (1, 2 and 3 word blocks) in the titles and abstract of papers marked as being ‘includes’ or ‘excludes’ during the title and abstract screening process, and re-orders the remaining records from most likely to least likely to be an include, based on that algorithm. This re-ordering of the remaining records occurs every time 25 additional records have been screened.</p><p>Research is currently ongoing as to what are the appropriate thresholds where reviewing of abstract can be stopped, assuming a defined threshold for the proportion of relevant papers it is acceptable to miss on primary screening. As a conservative approach until that research has been completed, the following rules were adopted during the production of this guideline:
|
|
<ul id="ch7.l15"><li id="ch7.lt58" class="half_rhythm"><div>In every review, at least 50% of the identified abstract (or 1,000 records, if that is a greater number) were always screened.</div></li><li id="ch7.lt59" class="half_rhythm"><div>After this point, screening was only terminated when the threshold was reached for a number of abstracts being screened without a single new include being identified. This threshold was set according to the expected proportion of includes in the review (with reviews with a lower proportion of includes needing a higher number of papers without an identified study to justify termination), and was always a minimum of 250.</div></li><li id="ch7.lt60" class="half_rhythm"><div>A random 10% sample of the studies remaining in the database when the threshold were additionally screened, to check if a substantial number of relevant studies were not being correctly classified by the algorithm, with the full database being screened if concerns were identified.</div></li></ul></p><p>As an additional check to ensure this approach did not miss relevant studies, the included studies lists of included systematic reviews were searched to identify any papers not identified through the primary search.</p></div><div id="ch7.appb.s2"><h3>1.2. Incorporating published systematic reviews</h3><p>For all review questions where a literature search was undertaken looking for a particular study design, systematic reviews containing studies of that design were also included. All included studies from those systematic reviews were screened to identify any additional relevant primary studies not found as part of the initial search.</p><div id="ch7.appb.s2.1"><h4>1.2.1. Quality assessment</h4><p>Individual systematic reviews were quality assessed using the ROBIS tool, with each classified into one of the following three groups:
|
|
<ul id="ch7.l16"><li id="ch7.lt61" class="half_rhythm"><div>High quality – It is unlikely that additional relevant and important data would be identified from primary studies compared to that reported in the review, and unlikely that any relevant and important studies have been missed by the review.</div></li><li id="ch7.lt62" class="half_rhythm"><div>Moderate quality – It is possible that additional relevant and important data would be identified from primary studies compared to that reported in the review, but unlikely that any relevant and important studies have been missed by the review.</div></li><li id="ch7.lt63" class="half_rhythm"><div>Low quality – It is possible that relevant and important studies have been missed by the review.</div></li></ul></p><p>Each individual systematic review was also classified into one of three groups for its applicability as a source of data, based on how closely the review matches the specified review protocol in the guideline. Studies were rated as follows:
|
|
<ul id="ch7.l17"><li id="ch7.lt64" class="half_rhythm"><div>Fully applicable – The identified review fully covers the review protocol in the guideline.</div></li><li id="ch7.lt65" class="half_rhythm"><div>Partially applicable – The identified review fully covers a discrete subsection of the review protocol in the guideline (for example, some of the factors in the protocol only).</div></li><li id="ch7.lt66" class="half_rhythm"><div>Not applicable – The identified review, despite including studies relevant to the review question, does not fully cover any discrete subsection of the review protocol in the guideline.</div></li></ul></p></div><div id="ch7.appb.s2.2"><h4>1.2.2. Using systematic reviews as a source of data</h4><p>If systematic reviews were identified as being sufficiently applicable and high quality, and were identified sufficiently early in the review process (for example, from the surveillance review or early in the database search), they were used as the primary source of data, rather than extracting information from primary studies. The extent to which this was done depended on the quality and applicability of the review, as defined in <a class="figpopup" href="/books/NBK558775/table/ch7.appb.tab1/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-figpopup="figch7appbtab1" rid-ob="figobch7appbtab1">Table 4</a>. When systematic reviews were used as a source of primary data, and unpublished or additional data included in the review which is not in the primary studies was also included. Data from these systematic reviews was then quality assessed and presented in GRADE/CERQual tables as described below, in the same way as if data had been extracted from primary studies. In questions where data was extracted from both systematic reviews and primary studies, these were cross-referenced to ensure none of the data had been double counted through this process.</p><p id="ch7.appb.tab1"><a href="/books/NBK558775/table/ch7.appb.tab1/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-ob="figobch7appbtab1" class="figpopup">Table 4. Criteria for using systematic reviews as a source of data</a></p></div></div><div id="ch7.appb.s3"><h3>1.3. Evidence synthesis and meta-analyses</h3><p>Where possible, meta-analyses were conducted to combine the results of quantitative studies for each outcome. For continuous outcomes analysed as mean differences, where change from baseline data were reported in the trials and were accompanied by a measure of spread (for example standard deviation), these were extracted and used in the meta-analysis. Where measures of spread for change from baseline values were not reported, the corresponding values at study end were used and were combined with change from baseline values to produce summary estimates of effect. These studies were assessed to ensure that baseline values were balanced across the treatment groups; if there were significant differences at baseline these studies were not included in any meta-analysis and were reported separately. For continuous outcomes analysed as standardised mean differences, where only baseline and final time point values were available, change from baseline standard deviations were estimated, assuming a correlation coefficient of 0.5.</p></div><div id="ch7.appb.s4"><h3>1.4. Evidence of effectiveness of interventions</h3><div id="ch7.appb.s4.1"><h4>1.4.1. Quality assessment</h4><p>Individual RCTs and quasi-randomised controlled trials were quality assessed using the Cochrane Risk of Bias Tool. Other study were quality assessed using the ROBINS-I tool. Each individual study was classified into one of the following three groups:
|
|
<ul id="ch7.l18"><li id="ch7.lt67" class="half_rhythm"><div>Low risk of bias – The true effect size for the study is likely to be close to the estimated effect size.</div></li><li id="ch7.lt68" class="half_rhythm"><div>Moderate risk of bias – There is a possibility the true effect size for the study is substantially different to the estimated effect size.</div></li><li id="ch7.lt69" class="half_rhythm"><div>High risk of bias – It is likely the true effect size for the study is substantially different to the estimated effect size.</div></li></ul></p><p>Each individual study was also classified into one of three groups for directness, based on if there were concerns about the population, intervention, comparator and/or outcomes in the study and how directly these variables could address the specified review question. Studies were rated as follows:
|
|
<ul id="ch7.l19"><li id="ch7.lt70" class="half_rhythm"><div>Direct – No important deviations from the protocol in population, intervention, comparator and/or outcomes.</div></li><li id="ch7.lt71" class="half_rhythm"><div>Partially indirect – Important deviations from the protocol in one of the population, intervention, comparator and/or outcomes.</div></li><li id="ch7.lt72" class="half_rhythm"><div>Indirect – Important deviations from the protocol in at least two of the following areas: population, intervention, comparator and/or outcomes.</div></li></ul></p></div><div id="ch7.appb.s4.2"><h4>1.4.2. Methods for combining intervention evidence</h4><p>Meta-analyses of interventional data were conducted with reference to the Cochrane Handbook for Systematic Reviews of Interventions (Higgins et al. 2011).</p><p>Where different studies presented continuous data measuring the same outcome but using different numerical scales (e.g. a 0–10 and a 0–100 visual analogue scale), these outcomes were all converted to the same scale before meta-analysis was conducted on the mean differences. Where outcomes measured the same underlying construct but used different instruments/metrics, data were analysed using standardised mean differences (Hedges’ g).</p><p>A pooled relative risk was calculated for dichotomous outcomes (using the Mantel–Haenszel method) reporting numbers of people having an event, and a pooled incidence rate ratio was calculated for dichotomous outcomes reporting total numbers of events. Both relative and absolute risks were presented, with absolute risks calculated by applying the relative risk to the pooled risk in the comparator arm of the meta-analysis (all pooled trials).</p><p>Fixed- and random-effects models (der Simonian and Laird) were fitted for all syntheses, with the presented analysis dependent on the degree of heterogeneity in the assembled evidence. Fixed-effects models were the preferred choice to report, but in situations where the assumption of a shared mean for fixed-effects model were clearly not met, even after appropriate pre-specified subgroup analyses were conducted, random-effects results are presented. Fixed-effects models were deemed to be inappropriate if one or both of the following conditions was met:
|
|
<ul id="ch7.l20"><li id="ch7.lt73" class="half_rhythm"><div>Significant between study heterogeneity in methodology, population, intervention or comparator was identified by the reviewer in advance of data analysis. This decision was made and recorded before any data analysis was undertaken.</div></li><li id="ch7.lt74" class="half_rhythm"><div>The presence of significant statistical heterogeneity in the meta-analysis, defined as I<sup>2</sup>≥50%.</div></li></ul></p><p>In any meta-analyses where some (but not all) of the data came from studies at high risk of bias, a sensitivity analysis was conducted, excluding those studies from the analysis. Results from both the full and restricted meta-analyses are reported. Similarly, in any meta-analyses where some (but not all) of the data came from indirect studies, a sensitivity analysis was conducted, excluding those studies from the analysis.</p><p>Meta-analyses were performed in Cochrane Review Manager V5.3, with the exception of incidence rate ratio analyses which were carried out in R version 3.3.4.</p></div><div id="ch7.appb.s4.3"><h4>1.4.3. Minimal clinically important differences (MIDs)</h4><p>The Core Outcome Measures in Effectiveness Trials (COMET) database was searched to identify published minimal clinically important difference thresholds relevant to this guideline. However, no relevant MIDs were found. In addition, the Guideline Committee were asked to specify any outcomes where they felt a consensus MID could be defined from their experience. In particular, any questions looking to evaluate non-inferiority (that one intervention is not meaningfully worse than another) required an MID to be defined to act as a non-inferiority margin. However, the committee agreed that in their experience, they could not define any MIDs. This is because the committee agreed that the protocol outcomes were objective rather than subjective measures and the committee were not aware of evidence supporting the use of MIDs for the protocol’s outcomes. Therefore, the line of no effect was used as the MID for risk ratios, hazard ratios and mean differences.</p></div><div id="ch7.appb.s4.4"><h4>1.4.4. GRADE for pairwise meta-analyses of interventional evidence</h4><p>GRADE was used to assess the quality of evidence for the selected outcomes as specified in ‘Developing NICE guidelines: the manual (2014)’. Data from all study designs was initially rated as high quality and the quality of the evidence for each outcome was downgraded or not from this initial point, based on the criteria given in <a class="figpopup" href="/books/NBK558775/table/ch7.appb.tab2/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-figpopup="figch7appbtab2" rid-ob="figobch7appbtab2">Table 5</a></p><p id="ch7.appb.tab2"><a href="/books/NBK558775/table/ch7.appb.tab2/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-ob="figobch7appbtab2" class="figpopup">Table 5. Rationale for downgrading quality of evidence for intervention studies</a></p><p>The quality of evidence for each outcome was upgraded if any of the following three conditions were met:
|
|
<ul id="ch7.l21"><li id="ch7.lt75" class="half_rhythm"><div>Data from non-randomised studies showing an effect size sufficiently large that it cannot be explained by confounding alone.</div></li><li id="ch7.lt76" class="half_rhythm"><div>Data showing a dose-response gradient.</div></li><li id="ch7.lt77" class="half_rhythm"><div>Data where all plausible residual confounding is likely to increase our confidence in the effect estimate.</div></li></ul></p></div><div id="ch7.appb.s4.5"><h4>1.4.5. Publication bias</h4><p>Publication bias was assessed in two ways. First, if evidence of conducted but unpublished studies was identified during the review (e.g. conference abstracts, trial protocols or trial records without accompanying published data), available information on these unpublished studies was reported as part of the review. Secondly, where 10 or more studies were included as part of a single meta-analysis, a funnel plot was produced to graphically assess the potential for publication bias.</p></div><div id="ch7.appb.s4.6"><h4>1.4.6. Evidence statements</h4><p>Evidence statements for pairwise intervention data are classified in to one of four categories:
|
|
<ul id="ch7.l22"><li id="ch7.lt78" class="half_rhythm"><div>Situations where the data are only consistent, at a 95% confidence level, with an effect in one direction (i.e. one that is ‘statistically significant’), and the magnitude of that effect is most likely to meet or exceed the MID (i.e. the point estimate is not in the zone of equivalence). In such cases, we state that the evidence showed that there is an effect.</div></li><li id="ch7.lt79" class="half_rhythm"><div>Situations where the data are only consistent, at a 95% confidence level, with an effect in one direction (i.e. one that is ‘statistically significant’), but the magnitude of that effect is most likely to be less than the MID (i.e. the point estimate is in the zone of equivalence). In such cases, we state that the evidence could not demonstrate a meaningful difference.</div></li><li id="ch7.lt80" class="half_rhythm"><div>Situations where the confidence limits are smaller than the MIDs in both directions. In such cases, we state that the evidence demonstrates that there is no meaningful difference.</div></li><li id="ch7.lt81" class="half_rhythm"><div>In all other cases, we state that the evidence could not differentiate between the comparators.</div></li></ul></p><p>For outcomes without a defined MID or where the MID is set as the line of no effect (for example, in the case of mortality), evidence statements are divided into 2 groups as follows:
|
|
<ul id="ch7.l23"><li id="ch7.lt82" class="half_rhythm"><div>We state that the evidence showed that there is an effect if the 95% CI does not cross the line of no effect.</div></li><li id="ch7.lt83" class="half_rhythm"><div>The evidence could not differentiate between comparators if the 95% CI crosses the line of no effect.</div></li></ul></p></div></div><div id="ch7.appb.s5"><h3>1.5. Health economics</h3><p>Literature reviews seeking to identify published cost–utility analyses of relevance to the issues under consideration were conducted for all questions. In each case, the search undertaken for the clinical review was modified, retaining population and intervention descriptors, but removing any study-design filter and adding a filter designed to identify relevant health economic analyses. In assessing studies for inclusion, population, intervention and comparator, criteria were always identical to those used in the parallel clinical search; only cost–utility analyses were included. Economic evidence profiles, including critical appraisal according to the Guidelines manual, were completed for included studies.</p><p>Economic studies identified through a systematic search of the literature are appraised using a methodology checklist designed for economic evaluations (NICE guidelines manual; 2014). This checklist is not intended to judge the quality of a study per se, but to determine whether an existing economic evaluation is useful to inform the decision-making of the committee for a specific topic within the guideline.</p><p>There are 2 parts of the appraisal process. The first step is to assess applicability (that is, the relevance of the study to the specific guideline topic and the NICE reference case); evaluations are categorised according to the criteria in <a class="figpopup" href="/books/NBK558775/table/ch7.appb.tab3/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-figpopup="figch7appbtab3" rid-ob="figobch7appbtab3">Table 6</a>.</p><p id="ch7.appb.tab3"><a href="/books/NBK558775/table/ch7.appb.tab3/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-ob="figobch7appbtab3" class="figpopup">Table 6.

<p>10% of the abstracts were reviewed by two reviewers, with any disagreements resolved by discussion or, if necessary, a third independent reviewer. If meaningful disagreements were found between the different reviewers, a further 10% of the abstracts were reviewed by two reviewers, with this process continued until agreement is achieved between the two reviewers. From this point, the remaining abstracts will be screened by a single reviewer.</p>

<p>A multidisciplinary committee developed the evidence review. The committee was convened by the NICE Guideline Updates Team and chaired by Gary McVeigh in line with section 3 of <a href="https://www.nice.org.uk/article/pmg20/chapter/1%20Introduction%20and%20overview" ref="pagearea=body&targetsite=external&targetcat=link&targettype=uri">Developing NICE guidelines: the manual</a>.</p>
|
|
<p>Staff from the NICE Guideline Updates Team undertook systematic literature searches, appraised the evidence, conducted meta-analysis and cost-effectiveness analysis where appropriate, and drafted the evidence review in collaboration with the committee. For details please see <a href="https://www.nice.org.uk/process/pmg20/chapter/introduction-and-overview" ref="pagearea=body&targetsite=external&targetcat=link&targettype=uri">Developing NICE guidelines: the manual</a>.</p>
