Abstract:
Aim: To assess treatment patterns, healthcare resource utilization (HCRU), and costs for patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) who did not receive stem cell transplantation in second-line. Patients & methods: An administrative MarketScan® database study to assess DLBCL claims from 01/01/2009-30/09/2020. Results: Most patients (n = 750) received rituximab plus cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine and prednisone in first-line (86.8%) and rituximab (39.5%) or bendamustine ± rituximab ± other (16.3%) in second-line. Over half were hospitalized (mean duration: 16.5 (standard deviation [SD]: 25.8) days per patient per year). Mean medical/pharmacy costs were US$141,532 per patient per year (SD: $189,579), driven by DLBCL-related claims. Conclusion: Healthcare resource utilization and costs for DLBCL-related claims were due to hospitalizations and outpatient visits. Novel therapies to reduce clinical and economic burdens are needed.
