Seguridad y supervivencia de las terapias biológicas: primer informe del registro paraguayo-uruguayo de acontecimientos adversos con terapias biológicas Biobadaguay / Safety and survival associated with biologic therapies: first report of the biobadaguay on the Paraguayan-Uruguayan registry of adverse events with biologic therapies

OBJETIVOS: Analizar los acontecimientos adversos (AA) y la supervivencia de las terapias biológicas (TB) en el registro paraguayo-uruguayo de AA, Biobadaguay. MÉTODO: Estudio observacional, prospectivo de duración indeterminada. Se han incluido pacientes al inicio de la TB y controles. Se han registrado variables clínicas, biológicas y relacionadas con el tratamiento. RESULTADOS: Se realizaron 826 registros (650 TB y 176 controles). El 70,9% fueron mujeres y el diagnóstico más frecuente fue la artritis reumatoide (AR) (63,2%). La TB más utilizada fue el adalimumab (56,6%) y la causa más frecuente de interrupción, la ineficacia (42,1%). La incidencia de AA en pacientes con TB fue de 143,9 (128,8-160,8) por 1.000 pacientes/año. En el estudio comparativo de AA en función del diagnóstico, se observó que la artritis idiopática juvenil (AIJ) se asoció a más AA globales (RTI = 2,3; IC 95%: 1,6-3,4; p = 4,27×10−6), mientras que la AR se asoció a un mayor número de AA graves (RTI = 2,20; IC 95%: 1,2-4,1; p = 1,17×10−2). Por otro lado, el tratamiento con tocilizumab se asoció a una mayor tasa de AA (RTI = 2,69; IC 95%: 1,90-3,82; p = 3,13×10−8). El diagnóstico de AIJ, el tratamiento con corticoides y el número de TB previas se asociaron a la disminución de la supervivencia de las TB. CONCLUSIÓN: En este primer informe del registro Biobadaguay, la principal causa de interrupción de la TB fue la ineficacia. Con relación al diagnóstico, la AR y la AIJ se asociaron a un mayor riesgo de AA. En este registro, se identificaron variables relacionadas a una menor supervivencia de las TB

OBJECTIVE: Analyze adverse events (AE) and survival associated with biologic therapies (BT) in the Biobadaguay, the Paraguayan Uruguayan registry of adverse events. METHODS: Prospective, observational study of undetermined duration. Patients on BT at initiation and controls were included. Clinical, biological and treatment variables were registered. RESULTS: A total of 826 registers were entered (650 BT and 176 controls); 70.9% were women and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) was the most frequent diagnosis (63.2%). The BT most often used was adalimumab and the main cause of discontinuation was loss of efficacy (42.1%). The incidence of AE of patients on BT was 143.9 (128.8-160.8) per 1000 patients/year. In the comparative study of AE related to diagnosis, juvenile idiopathic arthrosis (JIA) was associated with a higher overall number of AE (RTI = 2.3; 95%CI: 1.6-3.4; P = 4.27 ×10−6), whereas RA was associated with a higher number of serious AE (RTI = 2.2; 95% CI: 1.2-4.1; P =1.17 ×10−2). On the other hand, treatment with tocilizumab was associated with a higher rate of AE (RTI = 2.69; 95% CI: 1.9-3.82; P = 3.13 ×10−8). In JIA, treatment with corticosteroids and number of previous BT was associated with a decrease in BT survival. CONCLUSION: In this first report of the Biobadaguay registry, the main cause of BT discontinuation was loss of efficacy. In terms of the diagnosis involved, RA and JIA were associated with a higher risk of AE. In this registry, variables related to a shorter survival of BT were identified
