The aim of this study was to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of trastuzumab in patients with metastatic breast cancer (MBC) in a model-based cost-effectiveness analysis (CEA). Trastuzumab has shown considerable activity in patients with MBC that overexpress HER2. However, significant resources have been allocated to finance this new therapy. Due to ever increasing pressures on health care budgets, economic evaluations are requested in order to compare health effects with costs.
