Medical insurance system in Korea
Current evidence and real management
for breast cancer patients in Korea
Only one provider, Government
(National Health Insurance Corporation)
All people have mandatorily joined the
medical insurance policy since 1989

Is meant for all the hospital or
organization for medical treatment not to
reject application of medical insurance
but to offer an appropriate medical care
to the patients.

Level of evidence : Category 1
No drug for replacement or substitution
No increase in financial burden for
provider
But, cancer patients pay only 5% of all
medical cost if covered by insurance
Usually they are provided with good
quality cancer care with low economic
burden.

Beyond progression during or within 1
year of adjuvant trastuzumab, physicians
have to change to lapatinib/capecitabine in
HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer.
And then, no anti-HER2 targeted agents
are allowed anymore.

Trastuzumab combined with taxane is the
only one regimen allowed to use and
reimburssed.
Other combinations in current NCCN
guideline, such as trastuzumab with
vinorelbine, capecitabine, or lapatinib
should not be used.

New anti-HER2 targeted agents,
pertuzumab and T-DM1, are not available
now.
Outlook of their reimbursement in the near
future is very dim.

New drugs for patients with HER2-
negative cancer are very expensive and
not reimbursed, yet.
Eribulin ca 4,000 USD/cycle
Everolimus/Exemestane ca 2,700 USD/month
Less than 5% of patients indicated are
treated with these drugs.

Reveals a significant interaction (p=0.037) of
treatment and pCR
EFS benefit from trastuzumab is significantly linked to
pCR, and almost restricted to pCR
pCR with trastuzumab is linked to significant EFS
benefit, while association of pCR and EFS is smaller
and non significant without trastuzumab
The regimen used in NOAH trial is the
only one approved as neoadjuvant
treatment in HER2-positive breast cancer.
But it’s not reimbursed now.

Patients and doctors in Korea have many obstacles to access to modern &/or expensive drugs proven to increase clinical outcome and feel uncomfortable.
We need more information on predicting benefits and toxicities of treatment in individual patient.
Consensus and wisdom are eagerly needed for fair distribution of limited medical resources.
Thank you for your attention !
