The cost of immunotherapy for lung cancer in Germany typically ranges from $50,000 to $100,000. Prices can vary depending on the type of immunotherapy (such as PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors), the number of treatment cycles, the clinic, and the patient’s overall health. In the United States, the average cost is $90,000 (per NCCN guidelines). That means immunotherapy in Germany can be about _price_percent_discount_% less expensive than in the U.S.
German hospitals usually include the initial consultation, diagnostic tests, medication (such as pembrolizumab or nivolumab), infusion sessions, and follow-up visits in the price. In the U.S., costs often cover only the drug itself, with extra charges for hospital administration, labs, and follow-ups. Always confirm exactly what’s included with each German clinic before starting treatment.
