Demasiados medicamentos se probaron en pacientes que no son quienes los tomarán

Un análisis de los 46 medicamentos nuevos que la FDA aprobó en 2025 revela que la inscripción en los ensayos que los respaldan a menudo no reflejó a quienes viven con cada enfermedad; el informe propone soluciones prácticas y bipartidistas.

WASHINGTON, 30 de septiembre de 2026 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ --

HALLAZGOS DE UN VISTAZO
46 medicamentos, unos 26,000 participantes. El informe revisa cada medicamento nuevo que la FDA aprobó en 2025 y los ensayos cruciales (pivotales) que los respaldan, con base en los propios datos del programa Drug Trials Snapshots de la FDA.

  • La mayoría de los pacientes se estudiaron en el extranjero. En los ensayos de cáncer y en los de enfermedades del corazón, la sangre, el riñón y el sistema endocrino, solo alrededor de 1 de cada 5 participantes se inscribió en los Estados Unidos.
  • La inscripción a menudo no correspondió a quiénes tienen la enfermedad. La participación de Africanos Americanos e hispanos con frecuencia estuvo por debajo de la carga de la enfermedad; en más de un tercio (38%) de los ensayos que reportaron el origen étnico, los pacientes hispanos representaron el 5% o menos de los participantes.
  • Los adultos mayores estuvieron subrepresentados. Los adultos de 65 años o más fueron apenas entre una cuarta parte y un tercio de los participantes en los ensayos de cáncer y cardiovasculares, aunque esas enfermedades se concentran en pacientes de mayor edad.
  • Un ejemplo revelador. Un nuevo medicamento para el mieloma múltiple, un cáncer que afecta a los Africanos Americanos a aproximadamente el doble de la tasa que a las personas blancas, se probó en apenas unos 11 pacientes Africanos Americanos.
  • Sí se puede lograr. Varios ensayos de 2025 inscribieron a los pacientes que tienen la enfermedad, tanto en afecciones raras como comunes; un ensayo pediátrico de una enfermedad ultrarara alcanzó un 36% de inscripción hispana.
  • Las soluciones son prácticas y bipartidistas. Basar las metas de inscripción en la carga de la enfermedad, fijar números mínimos para los grupos clave, reportar por separado la inscripción dentro y fuera de los Estados Unidos, y eliminar los costos de viaje y los gastos de bolsillo que dejan a los pacientes fuera de los ensayos.

"Un ensayo crucial tiene una sola tarea: demostrar si un medicamento funciona y es seguro para las personas que lo van a tomar", dijo la Dra. Jane L. Delgado, Presidenta y Directora Ejecutiva de la Fundación para la Salud de las Américas. "Con demasiada frecuencia, en 2025 la evidencia se obtuvo de pacientes que no son a quienes el medicamento va a tratar. Cuando una medicina no funciona como se espera, o causa daño, son los pacientes y sus familias quienes pagan primero, y el sistema de salud paga después. La buena noticia es que esto tiene solución, y varios ensayos de este año ya demuestran que se puede hacer."

El informe publicado hoy demuestra que la inscripción necesaria es alcanzable; recomienda una serie de pasos prácticos, varios de los cuales ya cuentan con apoyo bipartidista en el Congreso; examina el panorama federal actual; e incluye una tabla maestra de las 46 aprobaciones y los niveles de participación de cada grupo reportado. El informe está disponible en https://www.buenasaludparatodos.org/recursos.
