A discrete event simulation to evaluate the cost effectiveness of germline <i>BRCA1</i> and <i>BRCA2</i> testing in UK women with ovarian cancer

2016-06-23

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Objectives</h4> The objective of this study was to evaluate the long-term cost-effectiveness of germline BRCA1 and BRCA2 (collectively termed ‘BRCA’) testing in women with epithelial ovarian cancer, and testing for the relevant mutation in first and second degree relatives of BRCA mutation-positive individuals, compared with no testing. Female BRCA mutation-positive relatives of ovarian cancer patients coul...
