Structured Treatment Value Profile

A field-based educational tool for systematic capture of benefit, harm, evidence maturity, patient fit, resource use, QALY context, and ICER context in thoracic oncology evidence.

Open structured profile Open discussion compass Back to tools

Purpose

This structured profile makes treatment-value assumptions visible before they are compressed into a conclusion.

Educational and research use only

This tool supports structured discussion of treatment value. It is not a formal cost-effectiveness model, reimbursement assessment, clinical recommendation engine, or QALY counter.

QALY and ICER fields are captured as context. They are not used as automatic decision thresholds. Clinical interpretation requires the original trial data, subgroup validity, toxicity severity, patient goals, local implementation feasibility, and national reimbursement context.

Scoring structure

The profile produces a transparent discussion score from five domains. The score is a prompt for interpretation, not a recommendation.

Formula

structured_value_profile_score =
clinical_benefit_score
+ safety_tolerability_score
+ evidence_confidence_score
+ patient_implementation_fit_score
+ resource_reasonableness_score
Clinical benefit: 35 points
Safety and tolerability: 20 points
Evidence confidence: 20 points
Patient and implementation fit: 15 points
Resource reasonableness: 10 points

QALY gain and ICER are recorded as context fields and exported in JSON, but they are not included in the score.

1. Treatment and evidence context

2. Clinical benefit

3. Safety and tolerability

4. Evidence confidence

5. Patient and implementation fit

6. Resource use and economic context
