Five thousand patients were simulated individually using Monte Carlo simulation, which allows to keep track of the disease course of each modelled patient as they moved through different cycles. The model was constructed and analysed using TreeAge Pro software (Williamstown MA, USA). The software assigns and records all Markov states, transitions, and costs and outcomes to each individual patient.
