Abbreviations: ICER, incremental cost-effectiveness ratio; FIT, fecal immunochemical test; LB, liquid biopsy; LYG, life-years gained.

a

ICER is calculated relative to the next least costly, nondominated strategy.

b

Total cancer and deaths due to cancer represent cancer incidence and mortality of the entire population.

b

Extendedly dominated indicates that the strategy resulted in fewer LYG at a higher cost per life-year gained compared with another strategy.

d

Strictly dominated indicates that the strategy resulted in higher costs and fewer LYG compared with another strategy.
