The ESMO-MCBS consists of 5 evaluation forms.

Choosing which form to use depends on the information available in the peer reviewed publication of the clinical trial that led to the licensed indication of the treatment you are interested in. The type of study will dictate which evaluation form to use. If you wish to learn more about the evaluation process, check the ESMO-MCBS online tutorials.

The highest grade of the ESMO-MCBS is A in the curative setting and this is restricted to new curative treatments with a grade B also to be considered to trigger rapid reimbursement. For non-curative indications 5 is the highest possible grade with 4 also to be considered to trigger rapid consideration for reimbursement.
