Abstract

The aim of our study was to compare healthcare-related costs of treatment with XELOX and FOLFOX4 chemotherapeutic regimens in patients with colorectal cancer. We have evaluated costs claimed to the health insurance by the hospital administering these cancer therapies.

This study is a pilot project utilising the new I-COP database developed by the Institute of Biostatistics and Analyses of the Masaryk University in Brno, Czech Republic.
