Paclitaxel for the adjuvant treatment of early node-positive breast cancer
Paclitaxel is not recommended as an option for the adjuvant treatment of women with early node-postive breast cancer.
Because Paclitaxel within its licensed indication is not recommended for the adjuvant treatment of women with early node-positive breast cancer then it is not considered to have any significant cost implications. Therefore, no costing template has been developed for this appraisal.
