Abstract
Purpose: Gastrointestinal perforation (GIP) is a fatal adverse event (AE). The AE of GIP induced by novel antineoplastic agents has attracted attention recently. We aimed to explore the AE signals of GIP related to novel antineoplastic agents comprehensively based on the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS). Methods: The FAERS database containing 71 quarters of records was used for analysis. Reporting odds ratio (ROR), information component (IC), and empirical Bayesian geometric mean (EBGM) were utilized to evaluate the signals of GIP associated with novel antineoplastic drugs. Standardization of drug names was by employing MedEx-UIMA software and Python. Data analysis and visualization were performed using MySQL Workbench and R software. Results: After cleaning and handling the data, 5226 GIP cases were identified that were associated with new antineoplastic medications, where these agents were the main suspected contributors. A total of 37 novel antineoplastic drugs were detected with signals of GIP for ROR and IC. Only 22 drugs showed statistically significant signals for EBGM. We found the GIP signals of 22 novel antineoplastic drugs overlapped for the 3 indicators, including anti-vascular endothelial growth factor/vascular endothelial growth factor receptor, anti-endothelial growth factor receptor, immune checkpoint inhibitors, and so on. Conclusion: The potential risk of GIP associated with several novel antineoplastic agents was identified through data mining, which provided valuable information on the safety risks associated with GIP among these drugs. The potential threat of GIP should be recognized and managed properly when using these novel antineoplastic agents.

Five Years of Direct Oral Anticoagulants Use in Italy: Adverse Drug Reactions from the Italian National Pharmacovigilance Network. J Clin Med 2022; 11:3207. [PMID: 35683593 PMCID: PMC9181424 DOI: 10.3390/jcm11113207] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/07/2022] [Revised: 05/27/2022] [Accepted: 05/31/2022] [Indexed: 12/10/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) are the preferred anticoagulant drugs for the prevention of atrial fibrillation (AF)-related thromboembolic complications and for the treatment and the prevention of recurrences of venous thromboembolism (VTE). The evaluation of self-reported adverse drug reactions (ADRs) available from databases of drug-regulatory agencies such as the Italian Medicines Agency (AIFA) pharmacovigilance database represents a novel aid to guide decision making. OBJECTIVE To assess the safety profile of DOACs by analyzing ADR rates in the real-world Italian scenario. METHODS Post-marketing surveillance data recorded by the National Pharmacovigilance Network were retrieved for the time period 2017-2021 from the AIFA online site. The following data were collected for each DOAC: total ADR number, serious ADR number, gastrointestinal (GI) ADR, intracranial hemorrhage events (ICH ADR), and more frequently reported ADR for the study year. The safety profile was expressed by the risk index (RI). RESULTS Rivaroxaban use was associated with consistent and stable low rates of serious ADR, GI ADR, and ICH ADR across the 5-year study period. Rivaroxaban and apixaban showed the lowest RI for serious ADR and GI ADR, while rivaroxaban use was associated with significantly lower ICH events as compared to apixaban. Dabigatran was related to the highest RIs for every ADR class, in particular GI ADRs. CONCLUSIONS DOACs presented an acceptable safety profile in the current post-market analysis. However, rivaroxaban and apixaban were associated with more favorable safety profiles as compared to dabigatran, while rivaroxaban provoked statistically significantly fewer ICH events as compared to apixaban.
