Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the second leading cause of cancer in Europe, with 1.931.590 people newly diagnosed in 2020. The purpose of this study is the investigation of treatment options and healthcare resource meta- static CRC (mCRC) in Greece.

The authors wanted to explore what breast cancer patients want the most from their cancer treatments. For this purpose, their preferences were collected in four European countries via a discrete choice experiment. The study showed that patients prefer treatments that improve their ability to function well in their daily lives and reduce their levels of pain. Patients’ preferences for treatment outcomes might differ from those of the treating clinicians or regulators. Hence, these aspects can be discussed with their clinicians to make a joint decision on the choice of treatments.

Disease Management and Resource Use for the Management of Melanoma stage IIIc or IV Positive for BRAF V600 Mutations in Greece Objective: Melanoma is one of the most aggressive cancers and is responsible for the majority of skin cancer deaths, with the presence of metastases prognostic for poor survival. At a time when most cancer incidences are falling, the annual incidence of melanoma has risen as rapidly as 4-6% in many European countries, with a substantial economic burden in advanced stages. The objective of this study is the investigation of treatment pathways and healthcare resource use related to advanced BRAF-mutated melanoma in Greece.
