ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION:
The National Lung Screening Trial found that, in a selected population with a high risk of lung cancer, an annual low-dose CT-scan decreased lung cancer mortality by 20% and overall mortality by 7% compared to annual chest X-Ray. In France, a work group stated that individual screening should be considered in this setting. However, the economic impact of an organized and generalized (to all eligible individuals) screening in France was never reported.METHODS:
This is a modeling study using French population demographic data and published data from randomized screening trials. We used the same selection criteria as NLST 55-74-year-old smokers for at least 30 pack-years, current smoker or quit less than 15 years. We computed a second model including also 50-54-year-old individuals. Then, we used different participation rates 65%, 45%, and 32%.RESULTS:
According to the considered model, there would be 1,650,588 to 2,283,993 subjects eligible to screening in France. According to the model and participation rate, lung cancer screening would diagnose 3600 to 10,118 stages 1/2 lung cancer each year. There would be 5991 to 16,839 false-positives, of whom 1416 to 3981 would undergo unnecessary surgery. Screening policy would cost 105 to 215 million per year. However, increasing the price of a cigarette pack by 0.05 to 0.10 would fully cover the screening costs.CONCLUSION:
Participation rate is a key point for screening impact. Screening could be easily funded by a small increase in cigarette prices.Palavras-chave
