1 UICCEMLCostingScenarios BackoftheEnvelope Calculations PreparedforWorkingGroupSession:19621November2014,Geneva

2 MethodsSummary We have chosen a conservative approach, calculating cost per vial. We have assumed procurement of 162 mid6range vial sizes for each drug and that a vial cannot be reused once opened.thismethodologywaschosentorepresentthemostlikelypracticalscenario.while vial sizes may be available in a number of different sizes for each drug, these sizes do not alwayscorrespondtotheexactdosageapatientwouldreceive.forexample,ifapatientwitha body surface area of 2m2 requires a dose of a drug equal to 4mg/m2, 8mg total would be requiredforthatdose.however,iftheonlyavailablevialsizeis10mg,thepricefortreating thatpatientwouldbethecostofprocuringthe10mgvial,notjustthecostofthe8mgactually used.ifmultiplepatientswiththesamechemotherapyregimenareseenonthesameday,it would be possible for the staff to use the additional dosage for another patient and avoid waste.however,giventhesmallerpatientvolumesinlowresourcecountries,thisscenariois lesslikely.overageamountscouldalsobeminimizedbyprocuringsmallervialsizes.however, procurementofsmallvialsizescanbedifficultandunlikelyinpracticeformanycountries.the chosen methodology leads to conservative estimates, as prices can be reduced by either procuringsmalleradditionalvialsizesand/ortreatingmorepatientswiththesamediseaseon thesamedays. All drug prices are calculated using Management Sciences for Health 2013 International Drug PriceIndicator.Pricesreflectthelowestaveragecostavailable. Moredetailscanbeprovidedonmethodology,onrequest.
