Following review of titles and abstracts, two full text studies were retrieved for detailed consideration, but these were subsequently excluded as not relevant. Therefore, no relevant cost&#x02013;utility analyses were identified for this question.</p><p>This review question was prioritised for economic modelling, and an original economic model was developed.</p><div id="ch3.s1.1.6.1"><h5>Summary of original economic model</h5><p>The de novo cost-utility analysis developed for this guideline included three strategies; chemoradiotherapy (CR), chemotherapy and surgery (CS) and chemoradiotherapy and surgery (CRS). It was based on a hybrid structure where the amount of time that patients spent in the progression free and progressed states, the probability of survival and the adverse events during the first five years were drawn from network meta-analyses conducted for this guideline. Survival in patients still alive after five years was modelled using patient registry data. The model included costs for the initial interventions and for treatment on progression, deaths, adverse events and routine costs associated with the progression free and progressed states. The model included utility estimates for both states as well as longer term survival and a disutility adjustment in the surgical arm. In accordance with data from the underpinning trials, not all patients in surgical strategies went on to receive surgery following chemoradiotherapy. Patients entered the model at age 60, which reflected the average age in the underpinning trials. The cycle length was one month and costs and health benefits were discounted at 3.5% per year.</p><p>The model found that CS was extendedly dominated by CR and CRS and had an ICER of &#x000a3;52,400/QALY versus CR. CRS was cost-effective compared to CR with an ICER of &#x000a3;16,900/QALY. These results were robust to a wide range of sensitivity and scenario analyses. The probabilistic sensitivity analysis showed that CRS produced more QALYs than CR and CS in 97% and 87% of iterations respectively. There were, however, key uncertainties in the underpinning clinical data with no individual pairwise studies having reported significant differences in overall survival. No subgroup analyses were performed. The full modelling report is available in <a href="#ch3.appk">Appendix K</a>.</p></div></div><div id="ch3.s1.1.7"><h4>Evidence statements</h4><p>The outcomes reported in network meta-analyses were not directly reported in the underpinning trials and therefore, although the trials are the same, there are no corresponding evidence statements for pairwise comparisons. Progression free survival time, post-progression survival time and the probability of survival were calculated using data extracted from survival graphs and &#x02018;number at risk&#x02019; tables available in the underpinning studies.</p><p>C = chemotherapy, R = radiotherapy, S = surgery.</p><div id="ch3.s1.1.7.1"><h5>CRS vs CR vs CS (network meta-analysis)</h5><p>Moderate quality evidence from 1 network meta-analysis that included more than 1,000 patients across 6 RCTs could not distinguish the odds of survival at 4 years between the interventions.</p><p>Moderate quality evidence from 1 network meta-analysis that included more than 1,000 patients across 5 RCTs could not distinguish the odds of survival at 5 years between the interventions.</p><p>High quality evidence from 1 network meta-analysis that included more than 1,000 patients across 6 RCTs found that CRS was associated with a longer progression-free survival time than both CS and CR at 4 years.

The model&#x02019;s conclusions were largely insensitive to changes in model parameters and assumptions.</p></div></div><div id="ch3.s1.1.8"><h4>The committee&#x02019;s discussion of the evidence</h4><div id="ch3.s1.1.8.1"><h5>Interpreting the evidence</h5><div id="ch3.s1.1.8.1.1"><h5>The outcomes that matter most</h5><p>The committee agreed that the outcome that matters the most is mortality. This is because the purpose of chemotherapy, radiotherapy and surgery is to reduce mortality as much as possible. Secondary outcomes were progression-free survival, severe adverse events and quality of life.</p></div><div id="ch3.s1.1.8.1.2"><h5>The quality of the evidence</h5><p>The committee agreed that the aim of the review question was to try to establish a standard approach to managing operable NSCLC stage IIIA-N2. Ten of the 11 RCTs included in this review question could not differentiate mortality.</p><p>The committee agreed that the six trials most relevant to current practice were <a class="bibr" href="#ch3.appi.ref7" rid="ch3.appi.ref7">Pless 2015</a>, <a class="bibr" href="#ch3.appi.ref5" rid="ch3.appi.ref5">Katakami 2012</a>, <a class="bibr" href="#ch3.appi.ref1" rid="ch3.appi.ref1">Albain 2009</a>, <a class="bibr" href="#ch3.appi.ref2" rid="ch3.appi.ref2">Eberhardt 2015</a>, <a class="bibr" href="#ch3.appi.ref3" rid="ch3.appi.ref3">Girard 2010</a> and <a class="bibr" href="#ch3.appi.ref11" rid="ch3.appi.ref11">van Meerbeeck 2007</a>. For the first four of these trials, outcomes were largely graded as moderate quality evidence. For the final two, outcomes were largely graded as low quality evidence. Overall survival time, progression-free survival time, probability of survival at study endpoint and adverse event data were then combined in network meta-analyses (NMA). Because the overall and progression free survival curves in the included studies did not typically exhibit proportional hazards, the committee felt it was more appropriate to use survival times and probabilities in the NMAs than hazard ratios. The fixed effects network meta-analyses found that patients receiving chemoradiotherapy and surgery spent significantly longer progression free than those receiving chemotherapy and surgery or chemoradiotherapy alone, that patients receiving chemoradiotherapy alone spent significantly longer in the post-progression state than those receiving the surgical options and that there was a strong but statistically insignificant trend favouring chemoradiotherapy and surgery over the other two interventions for overall survival time and probability of survival at study endpoint. While model fit statistics did not suggest that it fit the data any better, the random effects network meta-analyses used in sensitivity analysis found no statistically significant difference for any outcome between any of the interventions. The committee noted that only one of the RCTs found a statistically significant difference in PFS but that it was also the case that the direction of effect for this outcome in each of the studies was positive for CRS. See <a href="#ch3.appj">Appendix J</a> for more details on the NMAs conducted for this question.</p><p>The committee were aware that PFS is a less reliable outcome than OS and discussed the potential for radiotherapy scarring to affect reliability. They did not think that there would be systematic overdiagnosis of disease progression in the nonsurgical arms of the RCTs and thereby overestimation of the PFS benefit associated with surgery. Indeed, they noted that it is possible that subtle changes in disease status are missed in patients undergoing CR because of radiotherapy scarring. They therefore felt that if bias towards incorrect recording of progression exists, it could work in either direction.</p></div><div id="ch3.s1.1.8.1.3"><h5>Benefits and harms</h5><p>Based on the NMAs, the committee agreed that it is likely that (particularly) progression-free survival and overall survival are better for chemoradiotherapy and surgery (CRS) than the other two options if patients are well enough for it. The NMA found that CRS was associated with a 4 month (0.32 year) improvement in progression-free survival versus chemoradiotherapy (CR). The adverse event profile of the different interventions is uncertain but pairwise and network meta-analyses estimates conducted for the health economic model favoured CRS. The committee were unsure about the clinical plausibility of this, given that CRS is the most intensive intervention but agreed that there was no evidence that it was more harmful than the other two interventions. The committee agreed it was likely that there would be some quality of life loss in the months following the interventions as patients recovered. This was expected to be particularly true of the interventions including surgery.</p><p>The committee acknowledged the statistical uncertainty in outcomes reported in the individual trials but noted that the health economic model, which took into account the joint uncertainty in a number of survival outcomes, found a 89% probability that CRS would generate more life years than CR for the average patient. When the most uncertain survival outcome, the probability of survival at study endpoint (there was only an 86% probability that more people survived 5 years after treatment in the CRS arm than the CR arm) was set equal, the model found a 78% probability that CRS would generate more life years than CR.</p></div><div id="ch3.s1.1.8.1.4"><h5>Cost effectiveness and resource use</h5><p>An original health economic model was developed to answer this question (the full modelling report is available in <a href="#ch3.appk">Appendix K</a>). Outcomes in the first five years of this model were calculated via the network meta-analyses conducted for this guideline (<a href="#ch3.appi">Appendix I</a>), which showed that chemoradiotherapy and surgery (CRS) was associated with a statistically significantly longer progression free survival time than chemoradiotherapy alone (CR) and that CRS showed a high probability of being associated with greater overall survival. After the first five years, it was assumed that those patients who were still alive would continue progression free until the end of the model. Their overall survival was estimated using data from an epidemiological dataset on NSCLC stage IIIA-N2 patients who had survived five years after diagnosis.</p><p>The model found that while CRS was the most expensive intervention, it was also the most cost-effective, with a base case ICER of less than &#x000a3;20,000/QALY gained versus CR. Chemotherapy and surgery (CS) was extendedly dominated by the combination of CRS and CR and was itself not cost-effective compared to CR with highly uncertain ICERs that were consistently above &#x000a3;30,000/QALY gained in sensitivity analyses.</p><p>The committee discussed the limitations of the model and the assumptions that had been needed through lack of high quality directly available data and decided that the analysis was robust for decision making purposes because its results were quite insensitive to realistic variations in uncertain data and assumptions. They noted, however, that none of the RCTs included in the NMAs found any difference in overall survival, which was the most important outcome. Taking all the above considerations together, they decided that a &#x02018;consider&#x02019; recommendation in favour of CRS was justified by the evidence. This is because while they thought that CRS is likely to be the most cost-effective intervention and that CS was unlikely to be cost-effective compared to the other two interventions, there were a number of key uncertainties in the clinical data.</p><p>Surgery and radical radiotherapy are expensive interventions, costing approximately &#x000a3;7,500 and &#x000a3;2,500 respectively. The committee thought that only a small number of stage IIIA-N2 patients are currently treated with CRS and that these recommendations therefore represent an increase in resource use, which will depend on the extent of take-up.</p></div><div id="ch3.s1.1.8.1.5"><h5>Other factors the committee took into account</h5><p>The committee noted that none of the trials underpinning the network meta-analysis and health economic model were conducted in a UK setting and many recruited before the widespread adoption of newer and more effective treatments for advanced NSCLC such as targeted and immunotherapies. There have also been significant innovations in surgery and radiotherapy techniques in recent years. The survival data might therefore not reflect outcomes that would be seen in UK practice today although none of these things in themselves provide reasons to reject the differential effectiveness observed in the network meta-analyses. They noted that promising evidence on the use of immunotherapy in unresectable stage III disease is available from the PACIFIC trial but concluded that that evidence was out of the scope of this question on the management of patients with stage IIIA-N2 NSCLC that is considered operable.</p><p>The committee discussed the evidence from an NMA conducted for the economic model which showed the odds ratio of death before progression was higher in the surgical interventions. They felt that this outcome was unsurprising in interventions that are more invasive in nature and noted that the other NMAs had already accounted for this. Additionally, death before progression occurred in relatively few patients in any arm of any included study. They felt that discussing the risks and benefits of any surgery with patients is common practice.</p><p>The committee agreed that tri-modality therapy requires MDTs who have expertise in all three components.</p><p>The committee noted that patient fitness and patient choice were important factors in deciding between interventions and tried to reflect this in their recommendations.

Methods</h2><div id="ch3.appb.s1"><h3>1.1. 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 &#x02018;includes&#x02019; or &#x02018;excludes&#x02019; 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="ch3.l11"><li id="ch3.lt41" 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="ch3.lt42" 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="ch3.lt43" 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="ch3.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="ch3.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="ch3.l12"><li id="ch3.lt44" class="half_rhythm"><div>High quality &#x02013; 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="ch3.lt45" class="half_rhythm"><div>Moderate quality &#x02013; 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="ch3.lt46" class="half_rhythm"><div>Low quality &#x02013; 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="ch3.l13"><li id="ch3.lt47" class="half_rhythm"><div>Fully applicable &#x02013; The identified review fully covers the review protocol in the guideline.</div></li><li id="ch3.lt48" class="half_rhythm"><div>Partially applicable &#x02013; 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="ch3.lt49" class="half_rhythm"><div>Not applicable &#x02013; 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="ch3.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/NBK558779/table/ch3.appb.tab1/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-figpopup="figch3appbtab1" rid-ob="figobch3appbtab1">Table 2</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="ch3.appb.tab1"><a href="/books/NBK558779/table/ch3.appb.tab1/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-ob="figobch3appbtab1" class="figpopup">Table 2. Criteria for using systematic reviews as a source of data</a></p></div></div><div id="ch3.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="ch3.appb.s4"><h3>1.4. Evidence of effectiveness of interventions</h3><div id="ch3.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="ch3.l14"><li id="ch3.lt50" class="half_rhythm"><div>Low risk of bias &#x02013; The true effect size for the study is likely to be close to the estimated effect size.</div></li><li id="ch3.lt51" class="half_rhythm"><div>Moderate risk of bias &#x02013; There is a possibility the true effect size for the study is substantially different to the estimated effect size.</div></li><li id="ch3.lt52" class="half_rhythm"><div>High risk of bias &#x02013; 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="ch3.l15"><li id="ch3.lt53" class="half_rhythm"><div>Direct &#x02013; No important deviations from the protocol in population, intervention, comparator and/or outcomes.</div></li><li id="ch3.lt54" class="half_rhythm"><div>Partially indirect &#x02013; Important deviations from the protocol in one of the population, intervention, comparator and/or outcomes.</div></li><li id="ch3.lt55" class="half_rhythm"><div>Indirect &#x02013; 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="ch3.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&#x02019; g).</p><p>A pooled relative risk was calculated for dichotomous outcomes (using the Mantel&#x02013;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="ch3.l16"><li id="ch3.lt56" 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="ch3.lt57" class="half_rhythm"><div>The presence of significant statistical heterogeneity in the meta-analysis, defined as I<sup>2</sup>&#x02265;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="ch3.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 were not aware of evidence supporting the use of MIDs for the protocol&#x02019;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="ch3.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 &#x02018;Developing NICE guidelines: the manual (2014)&#x02019;. 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/NBK558779/table/ch3.appb.tab2/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-figpopup="figch3appbtab2" rid-ob="figobch3appbtab2">Table 3</a>.<b>Error!

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="ch3.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="ch3.l18"><li id="ch3.lt61" 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 &#x02018;statistically significant&#x02019;), 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="ch3.lt62" 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 &#x02018;statistically significant&#x02019;), 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="ch3.lt63" 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="ch3.lt64" 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="ch3.l19"><li id="ch3.lt65" 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="ch3.lt66" 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="ch3.appb.s5"><h3>1.5. Methods for combining direct and indirect evidence (network meta-analysis) for interventions</h3><p>Conventional &#x02018;pairwise&#x02019; meta-analysis involves the statistical combination of direct evidence about pairs of interventions that originate from two or more separate studies (for example, where there are two or more studies comparing A vs B).</p><p>In situations where there are more than two interventions, pairwise meta-analysis of the direct evidence alone is of limited use. This is because multiple pairwise comparisons need to be performed to analyse each pair of interventions in the evidence, and these results can be difficult to interpret. Furthermore, direct evidence about interventions of interest may not be available. For example studies may compare A vs B and B vs C, but there may be no direct evidence comparing A vs C. Network meta-analysis overcomes these problems by combining all evidence into a single, internally consistent model, synthesising data from direct and indirect comparisons, and providing estimates of relative effectiveness for all comparators and the ranking of different interventions. Network meta-analyses were undertaken in all situations where the following three criteria were met:
<ul id="ch3.l20"><li id="ch3.lt67" class="half_rhythm"><div>At least three treatment alternatives.</div></li><li id="ch3.lt68" class="half_rhythm"><div>A sufficiently connected network to enable valid estimates to be made.</div></li><li id="ch3.lt69" class="half_rhythm"><div>The aim of the review was to produce recommendations on the most effective option, rather than simply an unordered list of treatment alternatives.</div></li></ul></p><div id="ch3.appb.s5.1"><h4>1.5.1. Synthesis</h4><p>For more information on the network meta-analysis methods and results for this review question please see <a href="#ch3.appj">appendix J</a>.</p></div><div id="ch3.appb.s5.2"><h4>1.5.2. Modified GRADE for network meta-analyses</h4><p>A modified version of the standard GRADE approach for pairwise interventions was used to assess the quality of evidence across the network meta-analyses undertaken. While most criteria for pairwise meta-analyses still apply, it is important to adapt some of the criteria to take into consideration additional factors, such as how each &#x02018;link&#x02019; or pairwise comparison within the network applies to the others. As a result, the following was used when modifying the GRADE framework to a network meta-analysis. It is designed to provide a single overall quality rating for an NMA, which can then be combined with pairwise quality ratings for individual comparisons (if appropriate), to judge the overall strength of evidence for each comparison.</p><p id="ch3.appb.tab3"><a href="/books/NBK558779/table/ch3.appb.tab3/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-ob="figobch3appbtab3" class="figpopup">Table 4.

Network Meta-analysis</h2><div id="ch3.appj.s1"><h3>Background</h3><p>Evidence synthesis was performed for survival outcomes and for adverse events associated with the three interventions of interest; chemoradiotherapy (CR), chemotherapy and surgery (CS) and chemoradiotherapy and surgery (CRS). In this review, all studies provided Kaplan Meier curves for progression free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). Visual inspection of the Kaplan Meier curves revealed that the proportional hazards assumption did not appear to hold, and so traditional pooling of hazards ratios was not considered appropriate. Furthermore, the shapes of the survival curves were different across studies, suggesting that it was not appropriate to synthesise the evidence under an assumption of a single parametric model. A non-parametric approach to evidence synthesis was therefore required.</p><p>An alternative measure of treatment effect for time-to-event outcomes is the difference in the restricted mean survival time (RMST) [<a class="bibr" href="#ch3.appj.s2.15.ref1" rid="ch3.appj.s2.15.ref1">1</a>], where RMST is the mean survival time accrued from randomisation up to <i>T</i> years. RMST can be estimated by the area under the survival curve (AUC) up to time T, and the treatment effect estimated as the difference in AUCs between treatments. This measure does not assume proportional hazards and can be calculated regardless of the curve fitted to the data, including directly from the Kaplan-Meier curve, and so can allow for different survival distributions across studies.</p><p>In addition, the PFS and OS outcomes are related, because OS is a sum of progression free survival (PFS) and post-progression survival (PPS). Joint modelling of OS and PFS, where the synthesis model is given to PFS and PPS, ensures that predictions from the model conform to the natural constraint that OS is always greater than PFS.</p><p>We begin by describing the Network Meta-Analysis (NMA) methods used to estimate the treatment effects on the area under the Kaplan Meier curves for OS and PFS jointly. We then describe how these estimates can be combined with external evidence on longer-term survival to estimate mean time in PFS and PPS on each treatment. Because the non-parametric approach taken means that it is not straightforward to apply discounting in the economic model, we describe how the NMA is adapted to obtain discounted mean survival times required for the economic model. We also describe the NMA model used to synthesis evidence on adverse events. We then describe how we selected models on the basis of model fit and checked for inconsistency in the NMAs. We then present the results from the NMAs and the estimates to be inputted into the economic model.</p></div><div id="ch3.appj.s2"><h3>Synthesising the Clinical Evidence: Methods</h3><div id="ch3.appj.s2.1"><h4>Data extraction</h4><p>Data was extracted from the Kaplan Meier curves using a validated algorithm that makes use of the digitized curves as well as data on the numbers at risk and total number of events [<a class="bibr" href="#ch3.appj.s2.15.ref2" rid="ch3.appj.s2.15.ref2">2</a>].

Exact selection criteria are given in Section 8. This produced a dataset of 23,602 patients with a maximum observed survival time of 25.7 years. Since the SEER dataset was used to predict survival beyond the truncated study period, we were interested in the SEER data conditional on patients being alive at the end of the truncated study period. After conditioning survival on being alive at 4 and 5 years after diagnosis, data on the remaining 3,703 and 2,865 patients, respectively, were used to calculate the area under the conditional SEER Kaplan Meier curves using the methods described in Section 2.2. Several parametric survival curves were fitted to the SEER data: exponential, Weibull, gamma, log-normal, Gompertz, and log-logistic. The fit of each curve was compared using the Akaike information criterion (AIC) and Bayesian information criterion (BIC).

The fixed effect model assumes that all trials are estimating the same treatment effect, regardless of any differences in the conduct of the trials, populations, or treatments. The random effects NMA model on the other hand accounts for any differences in treatment effects between trials, that are beyond sampling error, by assuming a distribution of study-specific treatment effects with a pooled mean and between-study standard deviation.

Furthermore, events were classified heterogeneously across studies, being grouped under narrow or broad classes that made event-specific pooling difficult.

This involved grouping all adverse events of grade 3+ as homogenously requiring one hospital admission, but having no long term clinical effects or detriment to quality of life. The committee thought it possible that grade 4 adverse events would affect quality of life but these occurred to sparsely to be meaningfully included in the model.

Cost-Utility Analysis</h2><div id="ch3.appk.s1"><h3>Background</h3><p>Stage IIIA-N2 NSCLC is a common presentation but, despite several RCTs investigating different options, the optimal management strategy for potentially operable patients remains controversial. This stage of NSCLC is generally considered to be the most advanced stage of the disease in which patients would normally still receive radical rather than systemic treatment. Patients with stage IIIA-N2 disease commonly receive chemoradiotherapy (CR) and chemotherapy and surgery (CS) but may receive tri-modality therapy with chemoradiotherapy and surgery (CRS). These are the three treatment options examined in this analysis.</p><p>Typically, the chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy components will happen before surgery to make the tumour more operable although patients may receive an amount of either following surgery. Surgery for N2 disease is a complex operation with a high reference cost. The committee prioritised this area for de novo modelling because they wanted to see an analysis that combined progression-free survival (PFS), post-progression survival (PPS), overall survival (OS), adverse event data and costs into a single analysis. The systematic review conducted for this guideline found no published economic evaluations in this area.</p></div><div id="ch3.appk.s2"><h3>Methods</h3><div id="ch3.appk.s2.1"><h4>Model Structure</h4><p>The model is divided into short and long term components. The short term model, covering five years, is based on clinical trial data from six of the studies included in the review, which were prioritised for further analyses based on the relevance of their populations and interventions (<a class="bibr" href="#ch3.appi.ref1" rid="ch3.appi.ref1">Albain 2009</a>, Girard 2009, <a class="bibr" href="#ch3.appi.ref2" rid="ch3.appi.ref2">Eberhardt 2015</a>. <a class="bibr" href="#ch3.appi.ref7" rid="ch3.appi.ref7">Pless 2015</a>, <a class="bibr" href="#ch3.appi.ref5" rid="ch3.appi.ref5">Katakami 2012</a> and <a class="bibr" href="#ch3.appi.ref11" rid="ch3.appi.ref11">van Meerbeeck 2007</a><sup><a href="#appk.fn1">a</a></sup>). While four years was the longest common follow up time among all six RCTs, we chose five years as the base case because this only meant excluding Girard 2009, which was the smallest and least relevant study. We felt this was a trade-off worth making to make use of more of the available data, while also making certain modelling assumptions discussed later on more likely to be true. Four year data for all parameters that the time period is relevant to were also sourced and used in sensitivity analysis. Patients surviving the short term model enter the long term model, which takes the form of a Partitioned Survival Analysis<sup><a href="#appk.fn2">b</a></sup>.</p><p>The primary clinical evidence for the short term model came from the network meta-analyses (NMAs) of RCTs identified in the clinical review for this guideline. A full write-up of the NMAs can be found in <a href="#ch3.appi">Appendix I</a> but a brief discussion is included here.</p><p>It is very common for health economic models in lung cancer to divide patients into pre and post-progression health states, assuming some homogeneity of resource use and utility within those states and that transition between the two indicates something significant in terms of treatment. Overall survival at study endpoint is another key measure that is often reported in NSCLC RCTs. In order to obtain the average amount of time a patient undergoing any of the three interventions would spend in the progression free and progressed health states we digitised all the survival curves in the trials the committee prioritised for inclusion in the NMAs via the use of the Guyot et al algorithm<sup><a href="#appk.fn3">c</a></sup>. This algorithm makes use of digitised survival curves (in this case we used Enguage<sup><a href="#appk.fn4">d</a></sup> for this purpose) and the numbers at risk data that are commonly reported underneath Kaplan-Meier plots in RCTs to generate synthetic individual patient data. The algorithm creates a survival time and a censorship or event variable for each &#x0201c;patient&#x0201d; in the trial, which is amenable to the usual survival analysis techniques. Survival analysis on the synthetic data has been found to accurately reproduce the same analysis conducted on the real individual patient data from the trials in a large number of examples<sup>c</sup>.</p><p>Once the individual patient data had been obtained it was possible to calculate the area under the curve (AUC), which is equivalent to the mean time in state (restricted by the trial endpoint) and its standard error for both PFS and OS. Since PFS and OS are correlated, a correlation coefficient between the two was calculated and used in a bivariate NMA model that produced results for both PFS and OS for each of the three interventions. Since mean PPS would be equal to OS minus PFS for each iteration of the NMA, this statistic was also calculated via simple subtraction. Since the OS and PFS were obtained over five years of trial data, the AUC statistics were adjusted for discounting. A separate NMA model also calculated the probability of survival at study endpoint.</p><p>All NMAs were conducted separately on two study endpoints; four and five years post treatment. The four year data were available for all six RCTs but five year data were available for all except the smallest and least relevant RCT so the committee preferred the five year analysis in the base case, with the four year data being used in sensitivity analysis. In either case, the committee instructed us to assume that all, or at least the vast majority, of the ~15% of patients who had survived to five years post treatment were in remission and would continue into the long-term model progression free until death. This assumption may be reasonable, given that the PFS and OS Kaplan-Meier curves reported in the trials showed a strong tendency toward convergence at five years.</p><p>For the long term component of the model, a patient registry containing survival data conditional on NSCLC stage IIIA-N2 patients having survived for five years was obtained. Survival curves were fitted to this data and used in a long term Partitioned Survival Analysis with only two health states; (alive and) progression free and dead.</p><p>The structure of the model is shown in <a class="figpopup" href="/books/NBK558779/figure/ch3.appk.fig1/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-figpopup="figch3appkfig1" rid-ob="figobch3appkfig1">Figure 13</a>.</p><p id="ch3.appk.fig1"><a href="/books/NBK558779/figure/ch3.appk.fig1/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-ob="figobch3appkfig1" class="figpopup">Figure 13.

However, a targeted search was undertaken and a large number of potentially relevant data sources were identified that related to people with Stage III NSCLC undergoing surgery. Of these, the three studies the committee thought the most relevant are displayed in <a class="figpopup" href="/books/NBK558779/table/ch3.appk.tab1/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-figpopup="figch3appktab1" rid-ob="figobch3appktab1">Table 24</a>. A random effects model was chosen to pool these data because the I-squared statistic equalled 80%, indicating high between study heterogeneity.</p><p>No relevant post-progression utility estimates were identified so a generic post-progression adjustment value taken from a study widely used in economic models for advanced NSCLC was used (<a class="bibr" href="#ch3.appk.ref6" rid="ch3.appk.ref6">Nafees 2008</a>). The committee agreed that it was likely patients undergoing surgery would experience some reduction in health related quality of life for about three months while they recovered. This was borne out in the evidence from <a class="bibr" href="#ch3.appk.ref2" rid="ch3.appk.ref2">Bendixen 2016</a><sup><a href="#appk.fn5">e</a></sup>, a trial that investigated HRQoL in patients having surgery for NSCLC. We used data on EQ-5D measured at various time points in the thoracotomy arm of the trial to calculate the QALY loss from surgery by assuming that any dips below a linear trajectory between the time periods of 0 weeks and 12 weeks were due to surgery. The resulting difference between the areas under the curve for the observed values and the linear trajectory, calculated using simple averaging methods between observed time points, gave a QALY loss due to surgery of &#x02212;0.012. This value was applied only to people actually undergoing surgery (see the section further down discussing drop-out rates).</p><p id="ch3.appk.tab1"><a href="/books/NBK558779/table/ch3.appk.tab1/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-ob="figobch3appktab1" class="figpopup">Table 24. Utility Parameters</a></p><p>For the long term portion of the model, in which people were assumed to remain progression-free until death, the progression-free utility value was multiplied by the age specific decrements that would be expected in the general population (<a class="bibr" href="#ch3.appk.ref7" rid="ch3.appk.ref7">Kind et al 1999</a>). More specifically, the age specific value at each cycle was looked up from a table containing general population utility values and divided by the population level age specific utility value at cycle 0 of the long term model. This figure was then multiplied by the progression free survival utility value to give the utility at future cycles including any appropriate decrements for advanced age. Weighted averages were used for men and women assuming 53.4% of people in the model were men (NCLA 2017 data on general lung cancer presentation). To reflect the population in the underpinning trials, the starting age in the model was 60 (and therefore 65 in the long term model).</p><p id="ch3.appk.tab2"><a href="/books/NBK558779/table/ch3.appk.tab2/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-ob="figobch3appktab2" class="figpopup">Table 25. General Population Utility Estimates for Use in Long Term Multiplier</a></p><p>Adverse events were assumed to be acute in nature and not contribute meaningfully to QALY losses. Since adverse event rates did not differ greatly between the interventions, this limitation was assessed as minor.</p></div><div id="ch3.appk.s2.2.2"><h5>Progression Free and Post Progression Survival Time (Short Term Model)</h5><p>A single bivariate NMA model produced the estimates for discounted PFS and PPS. A brief discussion of this contained in the Model Structure section above and a full write up of this analysis can be found in <a href="#ch3.appi">Appendix I</a>. The NMA had 50,000 burn-in iterations that were then discarded. 10,000 values that had been thinned by 5 were taken from the next 50,000 iterations and used in the economic model. For each run of the model, discounted PFS and PPS values for all three interventions came from a randomly sampled line of this CODA output. The use of a single line of CODA for all data points was essential to preserve the correlation structure in the posterior distributions.</p><p>The discounted average pre and post progression survival time were multiplied by the relevant utility values to produce QALYs over 5 years. A surgery specific QALY decrement (see above) was applied to people receiving surgery in the CR and CRS model arms.</p></div><div id="ch3.appk.s2.2.3"><h5>Survival at study endpoint</h5><p>The probability of survival at study endpoint came from the relevant NMA (see <a href="#ch3.appi">Appendix I</a> for a full discussion). The NMA had 50,000 burn-in iterations that were then discarded. 10,000 values that had been thinned by 5 were taken from the next 50,000 iterations and used in the economic model. For each run of the model, probability values for all three interventions came from a randomly sampled line of this CODA output. The use of a single line of CODA for all data points was essential to preserve the correlation structure in the posterior distributions. Patients who survived the short term section of the model proceeded into the long term section.</p><p id="ch3.appk.tab3"><a href="/books/NBK558779/table/ch3.appk.tab3/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-ob="figobch3appktab3" class="figpopup">Table 26.

We chose to base this data on <a class="bibr" href="#ch3.appi.ref11" rid="ch3.appi.ref11">van Meerbeeck et al 2007</a> because it the largest study and because it was not characterised by the limitations of the other chemoradiotherapy studies; <a class="bibr" href="#ch3.appi.ref2" rid="ch3.appi.ref2">Eberhardt 2015</a> (a partially indirect population) and <a class="bibr" href="#ch3.appi.ref1" rid="ch3.appi.ref1">Albain 2009</a> (a US healthcare setting). The choice of study is expected to make little difference to the model&#x02019;s results as they relate to PFS and PPS but this is not true for the probability of survival. The relative effect for this outcome is an odds ratio, which is then multiplied by the odds of surviving into the long term model on chemotherapy. If the odds of surviving are very large or very small (prob = 0% or 100%) then the resulting absolute difference in probabilities, and therefore differential number of patients in the long term model, will be small. If the odds are close to even (prob = 50%), as in the case of the Eberhardt data then the resulting differential will be large. We used data from Eberhardt as a sensitivity analysis.</p></div><div id="ch3.appk.s2.2.4"><h5>Adverse Events</h5><p>The committee indicate that we should assume adverse events were acute in nature and that they would be unlikely to materially affect patients&#x02019; health related quality of life for any extended period. The numbers of reported adverse events at grade 4 were extremely low and therefore it was highly uncertain whether they differed meaningfully between interventions. The committee asked us to account for only grade 3+ adverse events in the model as these would be expected to incur a hospital admission and were therefore would potentially influence the net monetary benefit associated with the interventions. Grade 3+ adverse events were treated homogenously in the model (i.e. no difference between grades 3 and 4 and no difference between the clinical nature of events). This approach was taken for several reasons; as mentioned above, grade 4 events were rare, events were reported heterogeneously among trials and the specific nature of events was not expected to affect the net monetary benefit calculations within the model due to lack of meaningful differences in HRQoL loss or costs accrued.</p><p>We examined the data and determined that only the larger trials conducted by <a class="bibr" href="#ch3.appi.ref7" rid="ch3.appi.ref7">Pless 2015</a>, <a class="bibr" href="#ch3.appi.ref2" rid="ch3.appi.ref2">Eberhardt 2015</a> and <a class="bibr" href="#ch3.appi.ref1" rid="ch3.appi.ref1">Albain 2009</a> had reported adverse events comprehensively enough to give us some confidence in the homogeneity of their data collection and reporting methods. We fitted a baseline incidence rate meta-analysis to the arms containing CRS (as the intervention with the most data and trial arms) where events were the total number of events at grade 3 and above and person years at risk were determined by multiplying the sample size by the total area under the overall survival curve at 5 years (which is equal to restricted mean person years lived for the patients in those trial arms). The test for heterogeneity was significant (p&#x0003c;0.0001) so we preferred to use results from a random effects model for the base case analysis.</p><p>We then used the same data on events and person years at risk from both arms of the Pless trial to calculate the incidence rate ratio for CS vs CRS. The incidence rate ratio for CR vs CRS was calculated by pooling the data from the Albain and Eberhardt trials in a meta-analysis with random effects again being preferred due to heterogeneity (p=0.019).</p><p>Late on in development we received additional data from the EORTC on adverse events in the van Meerbeeck trial. This enabled us to fit a network meta-analysis for this outcome using the data from all four large trials. We decided that because the adverse events would be expected to occur within a reasonably short time frame (certainly those that were directly attributable to the interventions) we could assume a homogenous follow up time in our analysis. We therefore used the person years at risk as detailed above and selected a poisson likelihood, log link model for the analysis (the WinBUGS code is available in <a href="#ch3.appi">Appendix I</a>). The NMA calculated hazard ratios, which we applied directly to the baseline incidence rate and overall survival AUC to calculate total events. The deviance information criterion for the random effects model was only 2 points lower so we preferred the fixed effects model in the base case. The credible intervals for the random effects model are very wide so introduce significant uncertainty into the model but have been examined in a sensitivity analysis. Of note, we decided to use a multivariate normal distribution to incorporate these data into the probabilistic sensitivity analysis rather than using the CODA outputs from the NMA so as not to slow down the model. We do not expect this to have affected the results.</p><p>The committee examined the resulting data and noted that the total number of events for CS and CR remained roughly the same and that they were both higher than CRS The committee were unsure about the clinical plausibility of this, given that CRS is the more intense intervention but they noted that it could be explained to some extent by the finding that more people in the CS strategy actually go on to have surgery. Ultimately they decided to prefer the pairwise approach over the NMA in the base case as it introduced less uncertainty into the probabilistic sensitivity analysis but in interpreting the results were mindful that few significant differences has been observed in the GRADE tables. A sensitivity analysis where event rates were equal was therefore also specified.</p><p>For the 4-year sensitivity analysis we calculated the baseline incident rates using the same number of adverse events and the 4-year person years at risk data. We assumed the pairwise incident rate ratios would remain the same. These data were multiplied by the total person years at risk to give total adverse events at 4 years. These were very similar to using the 5-year data. We did not fit a 4-year NMA because the base case analysis was chosen to be pairwise.</p><p id="ch3.appk.tab5"><a href="/books/NBK558779/table/ch3.appk.tab5/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-ob="figobch3appktab5" class="figpopup">Table 28. Adverse event output data</a></p></div><div id="ch3.appk.s2.2.5"><h5>Costs of Initial Treatment</h5><p>The committee examined the dosing regimens in the RCTs and noted that the interventions were delivered quite heterogeneously (varied number of cycles of chemotherapy, grays and fractions of radiotherapy and timing of both interventions). They noted that none of the studies were set in the UK and decided on a set of resource uses that they felt were broadly representative of UK practice as well as being similar to the range observed in the trials. This was four cycles of chemotherapy and 55 grays in 20 fractions for radiotherapy in the base case. There are a large number of possible platinum doublet chemotherapy combinations used in current UK practice, which all cost a similar amount. As costing all these individually and taking a weighted average would not have meaningfully added to the accuracy of the model, we decided to cost a representative treatment. The committee decided that we should use carboplatin and oral vinorelbine for this purpose and supplied us with the typical doses.</p><p>Surgery was costed using the NHS reference cost for &#x0201c;Complex Thoracic Procedures, 19 years and over, with CC Score 3-5&#x0201d;.

A proportion of operations for N2 stage disease are pneumonectomies which the committee also felt would be covered by this reference cost.</p><div class="iconblock whole_rhythm clearfix ten_col table-wrap" id="figch3appktab6"><a href="/books/NBK558779/table/ch3.appk.tab6/?report=objectonly" target="object" title="Table" class="img_link icnblk_img figpopup" rid-figpopup="figch3appktab6" rid-ob="figobch3appktab6"><img class="small-thumb" src="/books/NBK558779/table/ch3.appk.tab6/?report=thumb" src-large="/books/NBK558779/table/ch3.appk.tab6/?report=previmg" alt="Image " /></a><div class="icnblk_cntnt"><h4 id="ch3.appk.tab6"><a href="/books/NBK558779/table/ch3.appk.tab6/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-ob="figobch3appktab6">Table</a></h4></div></div></div><div id="ch3.appk.s2.2.6"><h5>Progressions (costs and events)</h5><p>Since progression-free survival represents both patients who have not either progressed to a more advanced stage of disease or died, obtaining the number of progressions that are in fact deaths is necessary. These data were available in <a class="bibr" href="#ch3.appi.ref1" rid="ch3.appi.ref1">Albain 2009</a> and <a class="bibr" href="#ch3.appi.ref7" rid="ch3.appi.ref7">Pless 2015</a> and in a personal communication from the EORTC, who hold the data for <a class="bibr" href="#ch3.appi.ref11" rid="ch3.appi.ref11">van Meerbeeck 2007</a>. The data from Pless and van Meerbeeck was pooled in a fixed effects meta-analysis (heterogeneity p=0.18) to obtain the proportion of progressions that were deaths for the CS intervention, the log-odds ratios were then analysed in NMA (see <a href="#ch3.appj">Appendix J</a> for details) and applied to the pooled CS estimate to calculate the proportions for CR and CRS. These data were assessed as having good face validity as it would be reasonable to expect the surgical intervention arms to include more early deaths due to the invasive nature of the interventions. These parameters were only important for costs in the economic model, however, as all survival data of interest had already been taken into account via the other NMAs..</p><p>Upon progressions that were not deaths, patients were assumed to be treated with another round of systemic therapy. We had no data on the specific types of progression and it was not clear that progression type or the indicated treatment would be expected to differ significantly between the interventions so the committee thought this simplifying assumption reasonable. There are a very large number of systemic therapy options available in NSCLC (see RQ 3.3 of this update for a full algorithm) so costing them all and factoring in their differential benefits in this patient population would have been impractical and subject to high uncertainty. These treatment options have typically been the subject of NICE Technology Appraisals and therefore represent cost-effective additions to the care pathway, but additions that the committee was aware were unlikely to add much in terms of net monetary benefit. This is because Technology Appraisal approved drugs in advanced cancer rarely have base case ICERs significantly lower than the upper limit of the ICER range normally considered cost effective by NICE. The committee also noted that much of the evidence in this model came from survival data collected before many of these drugs were widely available. They therefore thought that the net monetary benefit associated with systemic therapy could reasonably be approximated using the costs of platinum doublet chemotherapy. Four cycles of oral vinorelbine with carboplatin was again chosen for this purpose and the overall cost of systemic therapy for progression was explored in sensitivity analysis.</p><p id="ch3.appk.tab7"><a href="/books/NBK558779/table/ch3.appk.tab7/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-ob="figobch3appktab7" class="figpopup">Table 29. Progressions that are deaths</a></p><p>The committee noted the convergence of the overall and progression free survival curves and made the assumption that progression-free survival would equal overall survival at the study endpoint of 5 years. They felt that NSCLC would be highly unlikely to recur in the vast majority of patients who were alive and unprogressed at this point. The number of progressions for each intervention during the first 5 years was therefore calculated by multiplying one minus the proportion still alive by one minus the proportion of progressions that were deaths.</p><p>The total number of deaths was equal to one minus the probability of survival at study endpoint and a cost of death representing a total package of end-of-life care was applied that was drawn from a study including the costs accrued by cancer patients in their last 90 days of life (<a class="bibr" href="#ch3.appk.ref8" rid="ch3.appk.ref8">Georghiou and Bardsley 2014</a><sup><a href="#appk.fn11">k</a></sup>). This data source had also been used by NICE&#x02019;s recently published guideline on Early and Locally Advanced Breast Cancer. The cost of existing in the pre and post progression states for 90 days, weighted by the proportion of people who were expected to die directly from each state was then subtracted to give the total death-attributable cost. We assigned the overall value an arbitrary high standard error equal to a quarter of the mean as these data were quite uncertain.</p><p id="ch3.appk.tab8"><a href="/books/NBK558779/table/ch3.appk.tab8/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-ob="figobch3appktab8" class="figpopup">Table 30.

While the NMAs already discussed provided discounted values for PFS and PPS and probability of OS, which could be multiplied directly by state membership and utility estimates to produce appropriate discounted values, another solution was needed for event costs. Another two NMAs were therefore conducted (see full discussion in <a href="#ch3.appi">Appendix I</a>) that calculated the proportion of progressions and deaths that occurred in each year. These proportions were multiplied by the total number of deaths and progression events and the appropriate discount factor for each year of the model to give a total weighted discounted average cost for both types of events.</p><p id="ch3.appk.tab9"><a href="/books/NBK558779/table/ch3.appk.tab9/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-ob="figobch3appktab9" class="figpopup">Table 31.

Not all patients in the surgery arms actually had surgery, however, through either dying, not being fit enough or changing their mind by the end of chemoradiotherapy. The committee therefore thought that the cost of the strategies including surgery should reflect these data. We were able to obtain the proportion of people actually undergoing surgery from the CS and CRS arms of all the trials. We pooled the data for proportion of patients undergoing surgery and used a random effects model due to high statistical heterogeneity. Because the smaller studies were less certain and contributed quite a lot of heterogeneity to this calculation we excluded them and pooled only the large studies in a fixed effects meta-analysis. We repeated this same procedure for CS; both the meta-analyses with and without large trials were fitted using random effects models to account for statistical heterogeneity. In the base case, we used the data containing only large trials because we thought it more reliable but the value obtained using all the trials and a value of 100% were examined in sensitivity analysis.</p><p id="ch3.appk.tab10"><a href="/books/NBK558779/table/ch3.appk.tab10/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-ob="figobch3appktab10" class="figpopup">Table 32.

It was assumed that no progressions took place among the surviving patients and they had, to all intents and purposes been cured of their lung cancer. Death events were accrued at a rate equivalent to the difference in the death state membership from cycle to cycle. The long term model was run on a monthly cycle length and a half-cycle correction using the life table method was applied. As discussed earlier, progression-free utility estimates were adjusted to reflect the decline in HRQoL in the general population at older ages. Progression-free costs continued to be applied in the model but at a rate of only 20% to reflect the assumptions that patients would be permanently remitted after 5 years but the committee felt patients would still continue to interact with services to some degree, especially if they had impaired lung function following radical treatment.</p><p>In order to obtain appropriate survival curves we interrogated the SEER registry<sup><a href="#appk.fn12">l</a></sup>, which was chosen because it was the only registry we knew about with the ability to extract the data we needed. The database was queried for survival data for patients who were diagnosed between 1988-2003, aged 35-79, had stage IIIA-N2 lung cancer upon diagnosis and had survived five years after their initial diagnosis. We fit survival curves to the data and selected the two with the lowest AIC statistics for use within the model as the base case and in sensitivity analysis. These were Weibull and exponential curves fitted to data from 2,865 patients. From <a class="figpopup" href="/books/NBK558779/figure/ch3.appk.fig2/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-figpopup="figch3appkfig2" rid-ob="figobch3appkfig2">Figure 14</a>, it can be seen that they fitted the survival data well. The AUC (or mean survival time) for these curves was about seven years. The data were somewhat out of date and we were unable to identify any data that would enable us to differentiate these curves by initial treatment but the committee thought that as they were meant to represent a cured population, these limitations were minor. The same process as this was undertaken to parameterise the 4-year sensitivity analysis, with Weibull and Exponential curves again providing the best fit to the data (N=3,703).</p><p id="ch3.appk.tab13"><a href="/books/NBK558779/table/ch3.appk.tab13/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-ob="figobch3appktab13" class="figpopup">Table 35.

SEER Survival Data and Parametric Models</a></p></div><div id="ch3.appk.s2.2.11"><h5>Sensitivity Analysis</h5><p>Sensitivity and scenario analyses was conducted by altering key parameters or groups of parameters including changing the short term element of the model to cover four years instead of five, using random effects NMAs instead of fixed effects, changing key cost and utility parameters, setting probability of survival at study endpoints and various other uncertain data equal among interventions, using different survival curves and altering the discount rate.</p><p>Probabilistic sensitivity analysis was performed by assigning parameters with appropriate probability distributions that reflected our uncertainty about their mean values. Of note, the NMAs used the relevant CODA. The very bottom end of the posterior distributions for AUC values for PFS and PFS in the random effects models had to be truncated at 0. This was because the NMA input and output data were on the natural scale (i.e. number of years) and so some impossible negative AUC values arose due to the wide credible intervals in the posterior distribution of the random effects models. This was only a small amount of data so was noted as a minor limitation for the PSA in the random effects scenario analysis.</p><p>Particularly uncertain costs that were heavily influenced by assumptions (such as the state membership costs and the cost of death) were arbitrarily assigned a high standard error equal to the mean divided by four. As noted in the adverse events section, the hazard ratios derived from NMAs were parameterised using a multivariate normal distribution on the log scale to reduce model size and running time.</p></div></div></div><div id="ch3.appk.s3"><h3>Results</h3><p>All base case results presented in this section are the mean of 5,000 probabilistic iterations of the model unless otherwise stated.

The model results show a high probability that that CRS produces the most life years and QALYs. The probability that CRS generates more QALYs than CR is 94% in the base case analysis and 83% if random effects NMAs are used. There were no plausible and robust sensitivity analyses in which CS would be considered cost-effective compared to CR at &#x000a3;20,000 per QALY gained and the comparison of CRS vs CS uniformly produced ICERs of less than &#x000a3;20,000/QALY. CS produced more QALYs than CR in 60% of model iterations and CRS produced more QALYs than CS in 85%. The model provides evidence that CS is unlikely to be a cost-effective option, being extendedly dominated by the combination of CR and CRS and having a high ICER vs CR, which is subject to high uncertainty. The cost effectiveness acceptability curve always showed CS as having a relatively low probability of being the most cost-effective option, regardless of the value of a QALY.</p><p>The model was quite insensitive to a large number of the parameters examined in sensitivity analysis and consistently produced ICERs for CRS vs CR of around or below &#x000a3;20,000/QALY. One particularly noteworthy source of uncertainty was the sensitivity analysis around the probability of survival at study endpoint, which produced an ICER over &#x000a3;30,000/QALY for CRS vs CR. The fixed effects NMA for this outcome did not find any significant differences among interventions for this outcome although 86% of the probability mass for the difference in this outcome favoured CRS over CR. In the analysis where the probability of survival at study endpoint is set equal, CRS still produces more QALYs than CR in 89% of model iterations.</p><p>The mean ICERs were very similar using random rather than fixed effects NMAs. While these models were not found to be statistically preferable, they might have been more appropriate given some of the heterogeneity in patient populations and interventions in the included studies. The cost-effectiveness plane shows a very wide dispersion of results for the random effects analysis.</p><p>CS was always extendedly dominated by the combination of CR and CRS in the scenario analyses. Furthermore, in the majority of these scenario analyses, the ICER for CS vs CR was above &#x000a3;30,000/QALY and was highly sensitive to a number of parameters. This variability in ICERs is due to the small QALY improvement of CS over CR.</p><p>Of note, if the Eberhardt data are used as the baseline for PFS, PPS and the probability of survival, the ICERs for the surgical options are much lower. This is because the odds ratio for survival derived from the NMA is applied to a much larger baseline odds of a survival, which produces a greater differential probability of surviving into the long term model. Overall survival in the Eberhardt trial was close to three times that in the van Meerbeeck trial at five years. The choice of trial for the base case analysis is discussed in the methods section but it is likely that the &#x02018;true&#x02019; ICERs for the surgical options lie somewhere between the base case and the Eberhardt data i.e. they are likely more cost-effective than our base case results suggest.</p><p>Overall, the results of our model suggest that CRS is likely to be a cost-effective improvement over CR but that CS is unlikely to be, albeit with some uncertainty in the underpinning clinical data. This is due largely to the results of the NMAs conducted for this guideline showing that people receiving CRS spend significantly longer progression free and are potentially more likely to be cured of their lung cancer. Differences in adverse events between the different interventions were small and somewhat uncertain and had a fairly significant effect on the results for CS. Adverse event data did not affect the ICER for CRS vs CR when the rates were set equal. The ICER for CRS vs CR was affected somewhat by the assumption that not all patients would actually continue on to surgery after completing chemoradiotherapy but remained under &#x000a3;30,000 per QALY when this assumption was relaxed. The ICERs were also sensitive to the cost of surgery and the costs of progressed state membership although again remained around or under &#x000a3;30,000/QALY for CRS vs CR when extreme assumptions were tested.</p><div id="ch3.appk.s4.1"><h4>Strengths and Limitations</h4><p>Our analysis has a number of important strengths. As far as we are aware is the first cost-effectiveness analysis examining treatment options in people with NSCLC stage IIIA-N2, which is a common presentation that is managed variably across the UK NHS and the world. It is based on novel and high quality methods for synthesising the wealth of data available in the trials conducted to date. In terms of its conclusions for UK practice, the model is insensitive to the vast majority of sensitivity and scenario analyses that were conducted to explore the limitations and uncertainties in the underlying data.</p><p>The model also has a number of limitations of varying importance. NSCLC stage IIIA-N2 is a heterogeneous condition and we were unable to find sufficient evidence that enabled us to examine the relative cost-effectiveness of treatment options in different subgroups, for example those indicated for lobectomy versus pneumonectomy, bulky versus non-bulky and multiple versus single-station N2. The model used PFS utility estimates drawn from a potentially clinically and somewhat culturally indirect population, a progression utility adjustment from an indirect population as well as making several strong assumptions about costs and resource use associated with state membership and death events. We were unable to account for advances made in systemic treatment (for example targeted and immunotherapy) although given that these new drugs are usually very expensive, we speculate that surgical options might be more cost-effective because they are associated with a lower probability of disease progression than CR. Most of the data used to drive the model was collected before these drugs were widely available but it is unclear how much survival time, if any, could be attributable to them being used in patients with more advanced disease. Furthermore, people who progress often receive multiple lines of systemic treatment, which was not accounted for at all in our model. Again though, this could make surgical options more cost-effective because more progressions occur in CR and more time is spent in the post-progression state. Adverse events were modelled quite crudely but made little difference to the conclusions. The background resource use of patients surviving into the long term model was uncertain and had a big effect on ICERs. The NMAs driving the model in the base case were fixed effects models with the two statistically significant findings that CRS provided more progression free life years than CR and that CR provided more post-progression life years. While not preferable on grounds of statistical model fit, it might have been more appropriate to use the random effects data, which did not find any statistically significant outcomes (although point estimates remained roughly consistent). The results of the model when driven by the random effects data are more uncertain although the base case ICERs are similar. The model also did not specifically include a strategy of CR followed by immunotherapy as this is currently not a routine option for people with NSCLC stage IIIA-N2 on the UK NHS. The committee were aware of the existence of relevant data from the PACIFIC<sup><a href="#appk.fn13">m</a></sup> trial but the NICE Technology Appraisal on durvalumab, the immunotherapy used in that trial, is not expected to publish until after the publication of this guideline. While that trial was not conducted in a resectable stage IIIA-N2 population and is therefore not directly applicable to this review question, its evidence hints that there may be another option in this decision space in the future.</p></div></div></div><div id="ch3.appl"><h2 id="_ch3_appl_">Appendix L.
