    Abstract Purpose: Health care expenditure related to oncologic treatments is skyrocketing although many treatments offer marginal, if any, clinical benefit. Financial conflicts of interest (fCOI) resulting from pharmaceutical industry (pharma) payments to physicians is increasingly recognized as a predictive factor for regulatory board approval and guideline incorporation of low-value treatments. We sought to study the extent to which pharma payments to medical oncologists occur in the Netherlands, the amount of money involved, and whether these occur more frequently and are higher for key opinion leaders (KOLs).
    Methods: In our cross-sectional retrospective database study, we used several Dutch open-access databases and extracted data registered between 2019 and 2021.
    Results: A cumulative amount of €899,863 was paid to 48.8% of the 408 registered medical oncologists. Over time, there was a marked decline in both the proportion of medical oncologists receiving payments (from 40.4% in 2019 to 19.1% in 2021) and the mean annual value of payments (from €2,962 in 2019 to €2,188 in 2021) with the latter mainly resulting from a decline in hospitality-related transactions. KOLs were more likely to receive industry payments and received a higher median payment value.
    Discussion: Our findings should contribute to the increasing awareness in the Netherlands of the potential effects of fCOI.

    Title translation Financial conflict of interest and anti-cancer drugs: Why the NTVG's stance to exclude pharma-advertisement is of importance.
    Abstract The number of new oncological treatments is increasing rapidly, even though many offer limited benefit to patients. In these cases, the scientific research leading to approvals is marred by shortcomings. Nonetheless, many drugs of limited value are approved by regulatory agencies. One of the factors contributing thereto is financial conflict of interest (FCI) with the pharmaceutical industry (Pharma). This occurs at different levels, including researchers, opinion leaders and editors of medical journals. FCI contributes to patient exposure to treatments that offer limited or no benefit and to unjust spending of valuable resources while providing large revenues for Pharma. The important step of the 'NederlandsTijdschriftvoorGeneeskunde' (NTVG) to omit all pharmaceutical advertisement as well as advertisement for pharmaceutical industry sponsored medical education sends an important signal and is a first step to revalue the important relationship with the pharmaceutical industry.

    Abstract The quality of evidence leading to new oncological treatments suffers shortcomings, as has recently been addressed for drug approvals. In this 'Personal view', we evaluate the unintended effects of adopting stereotactic radiosurgery as the standard of care for patients with limited number of symptomatic brain metastases and favourable prognostic factors in international guidelines in view of the limitations in the evidence of efficacy and effectiveness, with special focus on countries with relatively limited resources.

    Abstract Important breakthroughs in medical treatments have improved outcomes for patients suffering from several types of cancer. However, many oncological treatments approved by regulatory agencies are of low value and do not contribute significantly to cancer mortality reduction, but lead to unrealistic patient expectations and push even affluent societies to unsustainable health care costs. Several factors that contribute to approvals of low-value oncology treatments are addressed, including issues with clinical trials, bias in reporting, regulatory agency shortcomings and drug pricing. With the COVID-19 pandemic enforcing the elimination of low-value interventions in all fields of medicine, efforts should urgently be made by all involved in cancer care to select only high-value and sustainable interventions. Transformation of medical education, improvement in clinical trial design, quality, conduct and reporting, strict adherence to scientific norms by regulatory agencies and use of value-based scales can all contribute to raising the bar for oncology drug approvals and influence drug pricing and availability.
