In 2017, the Continuum+ platform was launched to provide a monitoring solution to home-based cancer care patients: AKO@dom monitoring. This platform also offers the follow-up of adverse drug reactions (ADRs) via direct notification to regional centers of pharmacovigilance (RCPVs). According to previous studies, the AKO@dom monitoring has successfully maintained treatment at the maximum effective dosage, managing ADRs and patient satisfaction. However, on the pharmacovigilance side, opinions are more divided. Due to the launch of the AKO@dom-PICTO experimentation in December 2021, in which our RCPV takes part, and to provide more data on pharmacovigilance, we decided to conduct a descriptive analysis of cases reported to our RCPV via the Continuum+ platform between 2019 and 2022. During these three years, we analyzed 1070 events, corresponding to 37 patients. Patients were primarily women (74.8%) aged around seventy with breast cancer. The most used drugs were tyrosine kinase inhibitors: palbociclib (29.7%), axitinib (16.2%), and cabozantinib (13.2%). Patients had an average of 8 ADRs, including one serious and/or unexpected ADR. Although the Continuum+ platform makes it possible to considerably limit under-reporting in pharmacovigilance, it has shortcomings. The lack of medical elements and context in notifications is a massive problem for analyzing pharmacovigilance reports. Improved access to the platform's medical information for CRPVs and pharmacovigilance training for healthcare professionals would make Continuum+ a helpful tool in pharmacovigilance.
