ESMO Clinical Practice Guidelines
The ESMO Clinical Practice Guidelines (CPG) are intended to provide oncology professionals with a set of recommendations for the best standards of cancer care, based on the findings of evidence-based medicine. Each Clinical Practice Guideline includes information on the incidence of the malignancy, diagnostic criteria, staging of disease and risk assessment, treatment plans and follow-up designed to help oncologists deliver an appropriate quality of care to their patients.
European Society for Medical Oncology Magnitude of Clinical Benefit Scale (ESMO-MCBS)
In 2015, ESMO published the first version of its Magnitude of Clinical Benefit Scale to grade the magnitude of clinical benefit of cancer therapies incorporating efficacy, long-term survival and side-effects of any anticancer agent into a single score. ESMO-MCBS was updated with the publication of the version 1.1 in 2017. Forms are available from the official website of ESMO.
