However, owing to the expensiveness of ICIs, monetary issues arise. The cost-effectiveness of ICI combination treatment with carboplatin plus etoposide (CE) as first-line therapy for patients with ED-SCLC was examined to aid public health policy in Japan. Methods IMpower 133 and CASPIAN data were used to create a partitioned survival model. Medical expenses and qualityadjusted life years (QALYs) were considered. The analysis period, discount rate, and threshold were set at 20 years, 2%, and 15 million Japanese yen (JPY) [114,068 US dollars (USD)] per QALY, respectively. The incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER) was calculated by gathering reasonable parameters from published reports and combining the costs and effects using parametric models. Monte Carlo simulations, scenario analysis, and one-way sensitivity analyses were employed to quantify uncertainty.  \nResults After comparing atezolizumab plus CE (ACE) and durvalumab plus CE (DCE) with CE, it was found that the ICERs exceeded the threshold at 35,048,299 JPY (266,527 USD) and 36,665,583 JPY (278,826 USD) per QALY, respectively. For one-way sensitivity and scenario assessments, the ICERs exceeded the threshold, even with considerably adjusted parameters. For the probabilistic sensitivity analyses, there was no probability that the ICER of the ICI combination treatment with chemotherapy would fall below the threshold.  \nConclusion ACE and DCE were not cost-effective compared with CE as first-line therapy for ED-SCLC in Japan. Both these therapies exhibited high ICERs.  \n1 Introduction  \nLung cancer is the world’s deadliest cancer, with 1.8 million deaths in 2020, accounting for 18.0%(14.3% and 13.7% for men and women, respectively) of all cancer  \n* Munenobu Kashiwa [munenobuk@p.kanazawa-u.ac.jp](munenobuk@p.kanazawa-u.ac.jp)  \n1 Department of Clinical Pharmacy and Healthcare Science, Faculty of Pharmacy, Institute of Medical, Pharmaceutical and Health Sciences, Kanazawa University, Kanazawa 920-1192, Japan  \n2 Comprehensive Unit for Health Economic Evidence Review and Decision Support (CHEERS), Research Organization of Science and Technology, Ritsumeikan University, Kyoto city, Kyoto, Japan  \n3 Department of Clinical Pharmacy and Healthcare Science, Faculty of Pharmacy, Institute of Medical, Pharmaceutical and Health Sciences, Kanazawa University, Kanazawa, Japan  \ndeaths [1] . This is the highest cancer mortality rate for men and the second highest for women [1] . In 2020, the total number of fatalities caused by lung cancer in Japan was estimated to exceed 75,000, amounting to 19.9% of all cancer-related deaths [2] . Lung cancer is the primary  \ncause of death among men and the second most common cause of death among women, after colorectal cancer [2] . Small-cell lung cancer (SCLC) is a specific kind of lung cancer, representing approximately 10–15% of all lung cancer cases [3] . It exhibits early and extensive metastasis, resulting in an exceedingly unfavorable prognosis [4] . Limited-disease SCLC (LD-SCLC) is defined by several clinical trials as “lesions confined to the same side of the chest as the tumor [5] .
