CSCO guidelines are China's national oncology guidelines, covering about 30 cancers and updated annually. They grade each recommendation by both evidence level and affordability under China's reimbursement list, and they cover Chinese-developed drugs (PD-1 inhibitors, ADCs) and cancers common in China (nasopharyngeal, oesophageal, liver, gastric) years before Western guidelines.
CSCO guidelines (since 2016 in current form) use a two-dimensional system: evidence level (1A-3) and recommendation grade (I basic, II optional, III) that considers drug accessibility, cost and reimbursement in China's National Reimbursement Drug List. They cover Chinese approvals (toripalimab, camrelizumab, sintilimab, tislelizumab, disitamab vedotin, furmonertinib, savolitinib) years before Western uptake and are published in English for several tumours (e.g. joint CSCO/ASCO NPC guideline 2021). Read with the NMPA approvals list for a view of the world's second-largest oncology market.
