ASCO Envisions the Future of Oncology
Allen S. Lichter, M.D., FASCO Chief Executive Officer, American Society of Clinical Oncology®
What Did We Conclude?• We are in the throws of three simultaneous
revolutions in medicine and oncology that will play out over the next 10-15 years.
• Confronting any of these by themselves would be a daunting task.
• We must manage all three of them simultaneously.
The Three Revolutions
CancerPanomics Big data
Payment reform/Value
There is Likely a Fourth
CancerPanomics Big data
Payment reform/Value
Patient engagement
For today • In the interest of time, I will skip cancer panomics• It is a rich topic and we have many ideas in this
domain• Look at our report at asco.org to see them
From Cost to Value• Value as the driver of oncology practice - New
payment models that promote quality and value will prevail:o Routine quality measurement and improvement
become embedded firmly in practice.o Providers compensated according to ability to
demonstrate value and quality.o Public reporting of oncologist performance becomes
routine.
The Value Equation: Keeping Treatments Affordable
Improving the Value Equation• ASCO is convening the appropriate stakeholders to begin to
discuss how we could define and quantify “value”a. We have already published a paper outlining what we believe
are “meaningful outcomes” for new drugs to achieve.b. We now seek to group existing therapies into value groupings
to assist physician-patient communication.c. This could have a profound effect on shaping the conversation,
but it will not be easy to do. Stay tuned.
“Big Data” in Oncology• In the future, most new knowledge creation in
oncology will come from the analysis of “real world data”
• We will need to create a true “learning health system” for cancer care.
• ASCO has stepped up to this challenge
Origins of ASCO’s Interest
• We’ve lived in a world where research was in one side of the house and clinical care was on the other
• We now have an opportunity to link the two
• Classical research involving classic clinical trials will continue
• But we can also aggregate data from our routine clinical care and gain valuable insights from massive numbers of patients
Embedding Research into Practice
A Key Example:
To create a national system capable of collecting the EMR data from every single medical oncology encounter in the country.
We built a pilot project in breast cancer and confirmed feasibility.
Our Goal:
Our Test:
Big Data

Next Steps• Working with ASCO Board of Directors and other volunteer
leadership, we have defined a plan to further develop the project.
• We are in final negotiations with the partner we will use to develop the platform.
• We continue to garner philanthropic support and further engage
the clinical community; 12 Vanguard Practices have been recruited.
• We anticipate a product demo to be available at the 2015 ASCO Annual Meeting.
#4: Patient Engagement• The connected patient
• New devices
• Gathering PROs• Apps
Summary• The future of oncology is being shaped by at least
three simultaneous revolutions.• Cancer panomics will reshape how we diagnose,
treat, and follow our patients.• An emphasis on value- delivering and measuring
it- will replace a pure cost focus.• Big data holds the promise of rapidly accelerating
the learning cycle while helping us manage the “omics” and value issues.
Summary (cont’d)• We need to continuously monitor the changing
environment so we may shape it for the benefit of our patients.
• ASCO welcomes your participation in the effort. Working together, we will create the oncology care delivery system of the future.

“I need to have a procedure done, but it’s not urgent—where do I go?”
“I want a relationship with a provider to manage my ongoing health needs”

Key Takeaways
39
Source: Oncology Roundtable interviews and analysis.
1. In order to grow in the future, hospitals need to learn to compete at two points of sale. They must secure their position in narrow networks, and they must appeal to price-sensitive patients.
2. Cancer patients tend to be the least cost-sensitive and the least likely patient sub-group to “shop” for health care services. But as shopping for health care services becomes the norm, and cancer cost and quality data become more widely available, cancer patients will become more discerning – and demanding - consumers.
3. Although cancer patients tend to deprioritize costs when choosing a cancer care provider, referring physicians are increasingly steering their patients to lower cost specialists, putting pricing pressure on providers.
4. Multiple payers and providers are working to pilot new oncology payment models that promote a higher-value cancer care, but the early results are inconclusive. Cancer providers should expect ongoing experimentation with payment reforms across the next decade and may want to consider participating in a pilot in order to begin to build the competencies required to manage risk.
5. To keep costs down, providers must invest in care delivery innovations that proactively address patients’ medical and psychosocial needs to reduce complications, acute care episodes, and duplicative or unwanted health care services. One of the cornerstones to success is risk-stratifying patients and deploying tailored interventions.

Value in Cancer Care: Conceptual basis
• Health Outcome Achieved per $ Spent
• A multidimensional concept that considers returns for expenditure
“Price is what you pay; Value is what you get.” - Warren Buffett
Improving Value: Unique Challenges for Oncology
• Sense of urgency - many cancer patients have poor prognosis & facing imminent death
• Pressure to use newest technologies/ treatments• Treatments expensive, making cancer care a hardship or unaffordable• Treatments can be highly toxic/life-threatening• Providers often reluctant to switch to best supportive care, even at end
of life
