A rapid and systematic review of the clinical effectiveness and cost effectiveness of gemcitabine for the treatment of pancreatic cancer [PDF]
Background Pancreatic cancer is the eighth most common cancer in the UK and the sixth most common cause of cancer death; in 1998, 3198 men and 3364 women died from this condition. In an average health authority with a population of 500,000, there
