"To some extent this is determined by economic factors, but much of
the variation between countries remains unexplained. In the US we have
found that the survival of cancer patients is significantly related to
the introduction of new oncology drugs."

The researchers, whose report is published in the journal Annals of
Oncology, found that Austria, France, Switzerland and the US were
leaders in using new cancer drugs.

The greatest differences in the uptake of drugs were noted for the new
colorectal and lung cancer drugs.

The proportion of colorectal cancer patients with access to the drug
Avastin was 10 times higher in the US than it was in Europe, with the
UK having a lower uptake than the European average.
