Additional remarks (1) Het aantal patiënten dat eerste lijn systemische therapie heeft gehad voor onresectable locally advanced of gemetastaseerd voor adenocarcinoom van de maag of gastro-oesofageale overgang lag tussen 2015 en 2017 tussen de 330 en 350 patiënten per jaar. Vaak worden geneesmiddelen die initieel zijn goedgekeurd voor deze groep ook ingezet voor patiënten met adenocarcinoom van de slokdarm. Dit zou betekenen dat er in totaal ongeveer 260 tot 290 patiënten per jaar in aanmerking komen voor deze behandeling. (2) Volgens de aanname in MONO studie heeft 31% van de patiënten voldoende expressie van CLAUDINE 18.2 voor behandeling. Er zullen dan 75 tot 100 patiënten in aanmerking komen.
