RESUMEN
Introducción. Las micosis sistémicas generan un gran incremento en los costos de la atención médica. Se evaluó el medicamento más costo-efectivo para el tratamiento empírico de aspergilosis sistémica entre la anfotericina B, caspofungina y voriconazol en pacientes con fiebre persistente y neutropenia.
Métodos. Modelo tipo árbol de decisiones para estimar los resultados clínicos esperados y los costos asociados del tratamiento de la aspergilosis sistémica. La perspectiva del estudio fue la del proveedor de servicios públicos de salud (Instituto Mexicano del Seguro Social [IMSS]). Temporalidad: 12 semanas. Medida de efectividad: tasa de remisión completa de la infección micótica. Se desarrollaron análisis de sensibilidad univaridos y probabilísticos.
Resultados. Los costos totales promedio por paciente esperados para el tratamiento empírico de aspergilosis resultaron con voriconazol en $57 378.58 US; $72 833.96 US con anfotericina B, y de $49 962.37 US con caspofungina. La tasa de remisión total sin eventos adversos fue de 37% para caspofungina, 43.6% para voriconazol y de 51.1% para anfotericina B. El análisis de sensibilidad probabilístico muestra que voriconazol sería el tratamiento más costo-efectivo en 65% de los casos, independientemente de la disposición a pagar por el IMSS.
Conclusiones. Los resultados presentados concuerdan con la afirmación de que el tratamiento estándar de primera línea recientemente propuesto para el tratamiento empírico de aspergilosis sistémica debe ser voriconazol.
