I Farmaci equivalenti in Italia Definizione e normativa II medicinale generico è un medicinale a base di uno o più principi attivi, prodotto industrialmente, non protetto da brevetto, identificato dalla denominazione comune internazionale (DCI) del principio attivo o, in mancanza di questa, dalla denominazione scientifica del medicinale, seguita dal nome del titolare dell'AIC, che sia bioequivalente rispetto ad una specialità medicinale già autorizzata con la stessa composizione quali-quantitativa in principi attivi, la stessa forma farmaceutica e le stesse indicazioni terapeutiche. Legge n. 425 del 8 agosto 1996 Art. 1 comma 3 Bioequivalenza Due medicinali si definiscono bioequivalenti se contengono lo stesso principio attivo e, se dopo la somministrazione della stessa dose in identiche condizioni, i loro profili di concentrazione/tempo (biodisponibilità) sono così simili (da -20% a +25%) da non comportare differenze significative in termini di efficacia e sicurezza. Possono variare gli eccipienti e/o la dissoluzione e l’assorbimento. Equivalenza terapeutica Un medicinale è terapeuticamente equivalente di un altro, se contiene lo stesso principio attivo e clinicamente dimostra la stessa efficacia e sicurezza del prodotto di riferimento la cui efficacia e sicurezza sono già state documentate con studi appropriati. In pratica, si accetta che uno studio di bioequivalenza sulla base dei profili plasmatici possa costituire la dimostrazione indiretta dell’equivalenza terapeutica di due farmaci che sono farmaceuticamente equivalenti o alternative farmaceutiche. Farmaci Equivalenti Non protetto da brevetto Stesso principio attivo del farmaco di riferimento Stessa composizione quali-quantitativa in principio attivo Stesse indicazioni Stessa forma farmaceutica Prezzo inferiore rispetto al farmaco di riferimento Identificato dalla DCI del principio attivo seguita dal nome del titolare AIC Bioequivalente Bromazepam ratiopharm rispetto al farmaco di riferimento Physicochemical Equivalence Biochemical Equivalence GENERIC EQUIVALENCE Pharmacologic Equivalence Clinical Equivalence Passato HAART Presente Futuro??

Departments of Internal Medicine, 2. Epidemiology 3. Pharmacy Hospital Son Llàtzer. Palma de Mallorca, Spain Methods The aim of this study was to describe adverse events in patients exposed to FDCAs disruption in a single center • We retrospectively compared adverse events reported by 75 patients exposed to FDCAs disruption and 150 nonexposed patients, matched by gender and type of FDCA, who did not changed the treatment • We collected adverse events at visit-1 (before FDCA disruption), baseline (at the time of FDCA disruption) and at the next two follow-up visits (visit+1 and visit+2) Homar F, et al. EACS 2011;Belgrade. Poster Results: FDCA distribution of the exposed cohort FDCAs that were disrupted in the exposed cohort 29% 11% 8% 49% 3% Atripla Truvada Kivexa Combivir Trizivir • Median time (range) on treatment with FDCAs and EFV was 20 months (1–119) and 48.5 months (1–127) respectively, with no statistical differences between groups. • Both cohorts were comparable at baseline in sex, age, HIV risk factors, HCV co-infection, previous history of AIDS, history of psychiatric conditions, use of methadone or psychotropic drugs, CD4 cell count and HIV-RNA levels. • FDCAs were disrupted for a median time of 3 months. Homar F, et al. EACS 2011;Belgrade. Poster Results: patient disposition Visit +1 (month 2) Visit +2 (month 4) Exposed cohort (FDCAs disruption cohort) 75 patients • Remain FDCAs disruption, n=21 • FDCAs resumed, n=47 • Treatment change, n=6 • Treatment discontinuation, n=1 21 patients • Remain FDCAs disruption, n=9 • FDCAs resumed, n=10 • Treatment change, n=0 Treatment discontinuation, n=0 • Missing n=2 Non-exposed cohort (FDCAs cohort) 150 patients • Remain FDCAs, n=146 • Treatment change, n=4 • Treatment discontinuation, n=0 146 patients • Remain FDCAs, n=132 • Treatment change, n=2 • Treatment discontinuation, n=0 • Missing, n=12 Homar F, et al. EACS 2011;Belgrade. Poster Adverse events (AEs) • At visit+1, 21 out of 75 exposed patients vs 7 out of 150 non-exposed patients experienced AEs (OR 8; 95%CI 3.3-20.1, p=0.0000). • Neuropsychiatric disorders related to efavirenz was the main AE reported (9 patients out of 14). • At visit+2, 2.7% of the exposed patients experienced probably HAART-related AE vs 1.3% of the non-exposed group, being this difference non statistically significant.

EACS 2011;Belgrade. Poster HIV RNA and CD4 cell count changes • There were no statistically significant differences in the rate of patients with HIV RNA>50 cop/mL at visit +1 (7% of the exposed patient vs. 9% in the non-exposed group) and visit +2 (13% vs 8%) • No significant differences were found in changes from baseline in CD4 cell count Cost analysis • A post-hoc analysis was performed to calculate the implication in health care expenditures with this measure during 120 days (median of time with disrupted FDCA treatment) • When considering only the management of HAARTrelated AEs, an incremental cost of 148 €/patient (1.24 €/patient/day) was observed • When the cost of anticipating the follow-up visits is included in the analysis, the final cost increment reaches 494 €/patient (4.13 €/patient/day) 34 Conclusions • In comparison with maintaining FDCAs, their disruption to include g3TC in the regimens were associated with higher risk of adverse events • Many of these adverse events were neuropsychiatric disorders probably related to efavirenz in stable patients previously tolerating this drug • Some of these adverse events were severe in intensity • Unlike the desired objective of cost-saving, FDCAs disruption led to an increase of health care expenditure 35 154 Patients taking Atripla for at least three months with an undetectable viral load were asked to complete an anonymous survey The majority of patients expressed an unwillingness to switch from Atripla and an individualized approach to such a strategy would appear to be needed The fixed-dose antiretroviral coformulations (FDACs) represent a significant advance in the simplification of antiretroviral therapy, facilitating adherence to complex and chronic treatments, and contributing to a quantifiable improvement in patient quality of life. AIDS 2011, 25:1683–169 These drug coformulations reduce the risk of treatment error, are associated with a lower risk of hospitalization, and can lessen the possibility of covert monotherapy in situations of selective noncompliance. AIDS 2011, 25:1683–169 With the exception of those cases requiring dose adjustments, the preferential use of FDACs should be recommended for the treatment of HIV-1 infection in those situations when the agents included in the coformulation are drugs of choice.
