- W2947101032 abstract "e18309 Background: As a significant percentage of cancer deaths are occurring in low- and middle-income countries, there is an unmet need in facilitating cancer care delivery in these countries. Data on stock-outs and shortages of cancer medicines in Botswana have been reported as one of the roots hindering treatment and potentially increasing mortality, with at least 40% of essential drugs being out of stock for at least 30 days in 2015. A methodologic approach was published in 2018 to forecast chemotherapy (CT) volume, however, this was based on incidence and prevalence data, using multiple estimated assumptions. To obtain objective data, we examined trends in CT utilization at Princess Marina Hospital (PMH), largest referral hospital in Botswana, over a 12-month period evaluating indications for CT, dosages, and potential issues with stock outs of essential medications. Here we present the 21 injectable essential CT utilized during this period. Methods: This is a retrospective analysis, with data collected from October 2017 to September 2018 from the log book which is used daily by the pharmacy at PMH to record CT preparations. Data was organized to reflect dosage of CT, regimen used, and its indication. Results: Over 1 year period, 21 injectable CT agents were utilized for cancer therapy, with common treated diseases being Kaposi Sarcoma, Gyn cancer, Breast cancer, and Lymphomas. The 10 most utilized agents are listed with the monthly dosage used. Conclusions: We hope to analyze trends in CT utilization based on the available stocks of drugs at PMH to help optimize plans for purchasing and storing medications, with goal of reducing stock outs. In addition, we will analyze treatment regimens used at PMH and compare to current standard of care CT in the US and Sub-Saharan Africa to optimize cancer pathway protocols used in Botswana.
