Following Royal Decree 86/2015, which regulates the Pharmacy and Therapeutics Committee of the Balearic Islands, this committee prepared a technical report in which it assessed the possible internal use of off-label drugs, drugs for compassionate use, and drugs not included in the hospital's pharmacotherapeutic guide. The objective was to analyse the clinical response achieved with the use of these drugs and their associated costs. Method: Retrospective study of drugs whose use was requested from the hospital's Pharmacy and Therapeutics Committee hospital between January and December 2018. We analysed whether the requested treatment achieved the objective established by the physician. The cost was calculated based on the duration of the treatment until the objective was achieved or until treatment was discontinued. Results: In total, 70 requests were analysed: 59% achieved the expected therapeutic goal, 34% were considered to be therapeutic failures, and 7% were lost to follow-up. The overall cost of the 70 authorized treatments was (sic)1,140,240. The average cost per request was (sic)16,288. Oncology and Haematology services submitted more than 50% of the requests, and more than 75% of the budget was allocated to these medical services. Conclusions: More than half of the treatments analysed by the Pharmacy and Therapeutics Committee of the hospital achieved their therapeutic goal, although the economic cost of their use was high.[Resum] Objetivo: La Comisión de Farmacia y Terapéutica, como órgano asesor de la Dirección Médica del hospital y bajo las condiciones del Real Decreto 86/2015, por el que se regula la Comisión de Farmacoterapéutica de las Islas Baleares, elabora un informe técnico donde evalúa la posibilidad de empleo interno de medicamentos off-label, uso compasivo y medicamentos no incluidos en la Guía Farmacoterapéutica del hospital. Asimismo, esta comisión realiza un seguimiento prospectivo de cada una de las solicitudes. El objetivo fue analizar la respuesta clínica alcanzada con el empleo de estos medicamentos, así como el coste asociado. Método: Estudio retrospectivo de los medicamentos solicitados a la Comisión de Farmacia y Terapéutica del hospital entre enero y diciembre de 2018. Se analizó si con cada tratamiento solicitado se alcanzó el objetivo propuesto por el clínico. Para el cálculo del coste se consideró la duración del tratamiento hasta alcanzar el objetivo propuesto o hasta su interrupción. Resultados: De un total de 70 solicitudes analizadas, un 59% alcanzaron el objetivo terapéutico esperado, un 34% fueron consideradas como fracaso terapéutico y hubo un 7% de pérdidas de seguimiento. El coste de las 70 peticiones fue de 1.140.240 €. La media de coste por solicitud fue de 16.288 €. Más del 50% de las solicitudes fueron realizadas por los servicios de oncología y hematología y más del 75% del presupuesto fue destinado a estos dos servicios.Editorial Garsi20202020-11-0120202020-11-01research articlehttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_2df8fbb1info:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttps://hdl.handle.net/20.500.13003/17537reponame:Docusalutinstname:Conselleria de Salut i Consum del Govern de les Illes BalearsInglésengopen accesshttp://purl.org/coar/access_right/c_abf2Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 Internationalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessoai:docusalut.com:20.500.13003/175372026-06-22T12:44:07Z
