Cáncer Cérvico Uterino

ETD2-2019

En personas con cáncer cervicouterino invasor incluyendo la etapa IB2, el Ministerio de Salud SUGIERE realizar estudio ganglionar centinela por sobre realizar linfadenectomía.

El problema ha sido definido como prioritario en el marco de las Garantías Explícitas en Salud (GES), régimen integral de salud que prioriza un grupo de patologías o problemas de salud, garantizando el acceso a tratamiento oportuno y de calidad.

A continuación se presenta la “Tabla de la evidencia a la decisión” con el resumen de los juicios, la evidencia de investigación evaluada, consideraciones adicionales y comentarios planteados por el panel.

 1.- ¿El problema es una prioridad?
No Probablemente no Probablemente sí Varía No lo sé

El problema o condición de salud abordado en la pregunta ha sido definido como prioritario en el marco de las Garantías Explícitas en Salud (GES), régimen integral de salud que prioriza un grupo de patologías o problemas de salud, garantizando el acceso a tratamiento oportuno y de calidad. Además, particularmente, la pregunta «En personas con cáncer cervicouterino invasor incluyendo IB2 ¿Se debe estudio ganglionar centinela en comparación a linfadenectomía?» fue priorizada por un panel de expertos en la materia. Ver detalle en Informe de Priorización de Preguntas de Práctica Clínica.

 2.- ¿Qué tan significativos son los efectos deseables anticipados?
Trivial Pequeño Moderado Grande Varía No lo sé

Moderados: Tomando en cuenta la evidencia identificada, la experiencia clínica y la vivencia de las personas con el problema de salud, el equipo elaborador de la guía estimó que la magnitud de los efectos deseables de «realizar estudio ganglionar centinela» en comparación a «realizar linfadenectomía» son moderados, y probablemente es importante para la mayoría de las personas.

Consideraciones Adicionales

El panel refiere que de todas formas cuando no se encuentra el ganglio centinela se debe hacer linfadenectomia de la hemipelvis en la que no se encontró.

En una población de 1000 pacientes con cáncer cervicouterino IB2 que requieren evaluación de compromiso ganglionar, realizar ganglio centinela podría diagnosticar correctamente a 178 pacientes de los 200 que realmente tienen compromiso ganglionar, pero la certeza de la evidencia es baja.

En una población de 1000 pacientes con cáncer cervicouterino IB2 que requieren evaluación de compromiso ganglionar, realizar ganglio centinela podría diagnosticar incorrectamente como sin compromiso ganglionar a 22 pacientes de los 200 que realmente tienen compromiso ganglionar, pero la certeza de la evidencia es baja.

IC: Intervalo de confianza del 95%.
GRADE: grados de evidencia del GRADE Working Group.
*La prevalencia corresponde al promedio de prevalencia de los estudios de la revisión sistemática [129].
** Certeza de exactitud diagnóstica.
***La linfadenectomía (gold standard) solo se realizó en los pacientes con ganglio centinela positivo (por temas éticos). Por lo cual no es posible calcular la especificidad junto con los verdaderos negativos ni falsos positivos.
1 Se disminuyó dos niveles de certeza de evidencia ya que el gold standard sólo se realizó en pacientes con ganglio centinela positivo.

 5.- ¿Hay incertidumbre importante o variabilidad sobre qué tanto valora la gente los desenlaces principales?
Variabilidad importantes Posiblemente hay incertidumbre o variabilidad importantes Probablemente no hay incertidumbre ni variabilidad importantes No hay variabilidad o incertidumbre importante

Probablemente no hay variabilidad importante: Tomando en cuenta la evidencia identificada, la experiencia clínica y la vivencia de las personas con el problema de salud, el equipo elaborador de la guía consideró que probablemente no existe variabilidad en como las personas, correctamente informadas, podrían valorar los efectos deseables e indeseables de «realizar estudio ganglionar centinela».

Evidencia de investigación

No se identificaron estudios que respondan la pregunta de manera directa o indirecta en todas las estrategias de búsqueda realizadas.

 6.- El balance entre efectos deseables e indeseables favorece la intervención o la comparación?
Favorece la comparación Probablemente favorece la comparación No favorece la intervención ni la comparación Probablemente favorece la intervención Favorece la intervención Varía No lo sé

Favorece la intervención: Tomando en cuenta la magnitud de los efectos deseables e indeseables, así como los valores y preferencias de las personas, el equipo elaborador de la guía consideró que «realizar estudio ganglionar centinela» es la mejor alternativa».

Evidencia de investigación

El panel considera que, a pesar de la evidencia baja, la experiencia clínica y algunos estudios locales han demostrado que el balance riesgo beneficio de realizar ganglio centinela sería superior.

 7.- ¿Qué tan grandes son los recursos necesarios (costos)?
Costos extensos Costos moderados Costos y ahorros pequeños Ahorros moderados Ahorros extensos Varía No lo sé

Costos moderados: La diferencia del costo entre «realizar estudio ganglionar centinela» y »realizar linfadenectomía» es igual o superior a $674.672 y menor a $4.502.112 al año. Por lo cual el equipo elaborador de la guía consideró que implementar» realizar estudio ganglionar centinela» traeria costos moderados para el sistema de salud.

(beneficio generado por la intervención)

Costo-efectividad

Genera un ICER negativo, porque la alternativa es costo ahorrativa y más efectiva que el comparador. Esta alternativa domina al resto de las alternativas.

Los resultados fueron robustos a los análisis de sensibilidad. Siempre resulta costo efectiva la intervención.

 Sin embargo, los resultados hay que verlos con precaución dado que no informan si consideraron o no tasa de descuento tanto para costos como para beneficios.

 

A pesar que el estudio a primera vista incluye todas las etapas de un análisis de costo efectividad, no reportan haber incluido descuento, ni para costos ni para beneficios, lo cual es un error grave, dado que consideran un horizonte temporal de 5 años, por lo tanto sus resultados hay que considerarlos con mucha precaución.

Genera un ICER negativo porque la alternativa es costo ahorrativa y más efectiva que el comparador.

Esta alternativa es dominada por la alternativa anterior.

Los resultados fueron robustos a los análisis de sensibilidad. 

Esta alternativa también resultó ser costo efectiva respecto del comparador.

 Sin embargo, los resultados hay que verlos con precaución dado que no informan si consideraron o no tasa de descuento tanto para costos como para beneficios.

 

A pesar que el estudio a primera vista incluye todas las etapas de un análisis de costo efectividad, no reportan haber incluido descuento, ni para costos ni para beneficios, lo cual es un error grave, dado que consideran un horizonte temporal de 5 años, por lo tanto sus resultados hay que considerarlos con mucha precaución.

 9.- ¿Cuál sería el impacto en equidad en salud?
Reducido Probablemente reducido Probablemente ningún impacto Probablemente aumentado Aumentado Varía No lo sé

Probablemente aumentada: El equipo elaborador de la guía consideró que la equidad en salud probablemente aumentaría si se recomendase »realizar estudio ganglionar centinela» , dado que en la actualidad existe acceso a ella, pero es una intervención que en ocasiones no se utiliza en poblaciones desventajadas.

 10.- ¿La intervención es aceptable para las partes interesadas?
No Probablemente no Probablemente sí Varía No lo sé

Sí: El equipo elaborador de la guía consideró que »realizar estudio ganglionar centinela» sÍ es aceptable para las partes interesadas (profesionales de la salud, gestores de centros de salud, directivos de centros de salud, pacientes, cuidadores, seguros de salud, otros).

 11.- ¿Es factible implementar la intervención?
No Probablemente no Probablemente sí Varía No lo sé

Probablemente sí: Tomando en cuenta la capacidad de la red asistencial y los recursos humanos y materiales disponibles, el equipo elaborador de la guía consideró que probablemente SI es factible implementar »realizar estudio ganglionar centinela» .
