Burden of Illness of Adjuvant Therapy for Advanced Melanoma
Stage I-III melanoma at high risk of progression is treated with the approved systemic adjuvant therapy. This study described treatment patterns, clinical outcomes, and healthcare costs among these patients.

Retrospective Observational Study
Patient Criteria
- Adult patients with Stage I-III melanoma
- Diagnosed between 1/2007 and 4/2013
- Treated or untreated with systemic adjuvant therapy
Results
633
Eligible patients
Findings:
Patients treated with adjuvant systemic therapy
Received interferon/peginterferon therapy
Costs
Median cost of interferon/peginterferon therapy
Total Cost
Findings:
Months patients were treated with interferon
Patients remained on therapy at 1 year
Conclusion
Real-world patients are older and sicker than those enrolled in pivotal clinical trials. Application of clinical trial findings to dissimilar populations may result in patient harm.
