Front Genet 2024; 15:1381303. [PMID: 39005629 PMCID: PMC11239446 DOI: 10.3389/fgene.2024.1381303] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/13/2024] [Accepted: 06/10/2024] [Indexed: 07/16/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Former research has emphasized a correlation between lung cancer (LC) and sepsis, but the causative link remains unclear. Method This study used univariate Mendelian Randomization (MR) to explore the causal relationship between LC, its subtypes, and sepsis. Linkage Disequilibrium Score (LDSC) regression was used to calculate genetic correlations. Multivariate MR was applied to investigate the role of seven confounding factors. The primary method utilized was inverse-variance-weighted (IVW), supplemented by sensitivity analyses to assess directionality, heterogeneity, and result robustness. Results LDSC analysis revealed a significant genetic correlation between LC and sepsis (genetic correlation = 0.325, p = 0.014). Following false discovery rate (FDR) correction, strong evidence suggested that genetically predicted LC (OR = 1.172, 95% CI 1.083-1.269, p = 8.29 × 10-5, P fdr = 2.49 × 10-4), squamous cell lung carcinoma (OR = 1.098, 95% CI 1.021-1.181, p = 0.012, P fdr = 0.012), and lung adenocarcinoma (OR = 1.098, 95% CI 1.024-1.178, p = 0.009, P fdr = 0.012) are linked to an increased incidence of sepsis. Suggestive evidence was also found for small cell lung carcinoma (Wald ratio: OR = 1.156, 95% CI 1.047-1.277, p = 0.004) in relation to sepsis. The multivariate MR suggested that the partial impact of all LC subtypes on sepsis might be mediated through body mass index. Reverse analysis did not find a causal relationship (p > 0.05 and P fdr > 0.05). Conclusion The study suggests a causative link between LC and increased sepsis risk, underscoring the need for integrated sepsis management in LC patients.

[PMID: 38983914 PMCID: PMC11231375 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2024.1405023] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/22/2024] [Accepted: 06/07/2024] [Indexed: 07/11/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Polatuzumab vedotin, the first FDA-approved antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) targeting CD79b, is utilized in the treatment of previously untreated diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) or high-grade B-cell lymphoma (HGBL), as well as relapsed or refractory (R/R) DLBCL. Despite its approval, concerns persist regarding the long-term safety profile of polatuzumab vedotin. This study aims to evaluate the adverse events (AEs) associated with polatuzumab vedotin since its approval in 2019, utilizing data mining strategies applied to the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS). Methods Signal detection employed four methodologies, including reporting odds ratio (ROR), proportional reporting ratio (PRR), bayesian confidence propagation neural network (BCPNN), and multi-item gamma poisson shrinker (MGPS), to evaluate and quantify the signals of polatuzumab vedotin-associated AEs. Additionally, subgroup analyses based on patients age, gender, and fatal cases were conducted to investigate AEs occurrences in specific subpopulations. Results A total of 1,521 reports listing polatuzumab vedotin as a "principal suspect (PS)" drug were collected from the FAERS database. Through concurrent compliance with four algorithms, 19 significant Standardized MedDRA Query (SMQ) AEs and 92 significant Preferred Term (PT) AEs were detected. Subgroup analyses revealed a higher incidence of PTs in male patients compared to female patients, increased likelihood of polatuzumab vedotin-associated AEs in elder patients (>65 years), and AEs with a high risk of fatal cases include: blood lactate dehydrogenase increased, cytopenia, and hydronephrosis. The median time to AEs occurrence following polatuzumab vedotin initiation was 18.5 (5∼57.75) days, with 95% of AEs occurred within 162 days. Conclusion This study identified various AEs associated with polatuzumab vedotin, offering critical insights for clinical monitoring and risk identification in patients receiving polatuzumab vedotin therapy.

Emerging Toxicities of Antibody-Drug Conjugates for Breast Cancer: Clinical Prioritization of Adverse Events from the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System. Target Oncol 2024; 19:435-445.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) are gaining widespread use in the treatment of breast cancer, although toxicity remains an underexplored issue in the real-world clinical setting. Individual case safety reports collected in large pharmacovigilance databases can advance our knowledge on their safety profile in routine clinical practice. OBJECTIVE We prioritized adverse events (AEs) reported with ADCs approved for breast cancer using the Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS). METHODS We assessed clinical priority of AEs reported in FAERS (February 2013-March 2022) for trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1), trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd), and sacituzumab govitecan (SG) by attributing a score to each AE disproportionally reported with ADCs. Four criteria were assessed: clinical relevance, reporting rate, reported case fatality rate, and stability of disproportionality signals (consistency of the reporting odds ratio across multiple analyses using three different comparators). RESULTS We retained 6589 reports (77.4% referring to T-DM1 as suspect), and 572 AEs generated a disproportionality signal in at least one analysis. The majority of these AEs (62%) were classified as moderate clinical priorities (e.g., interstitial lung disease with T-DXd, thrombocytopenia, peripheral neuropathy with T-DM1, febrile neutropenia, and large intestine perforation with SG). Three AEs emerged as high clinical priorities (6 points): septic shock and neutropenic colitis with SG (N = 8 and 13, with median onset 13 and 10 days, respectively), without co-reported immunosuppressive agents; and pulmonary embolism with T-DM1 (N = 31, median onset 109 days, 52% with reported metastasis). CONCLUSION The heterogeneous spectrum of post-marketing toxicities for ADCs used in breast cancer, as emerging from the FAERS, is largely in line with preapproval evidence. Although causality cannot be proved, we call for increased awareness by oncologists on potential serious unexpected reactions, including early onset of septic shock and neutropenic colitis with SG, and late emergence of pulmonary embolism with T-DM1.

Abstract
Sacituzumab govitecan is widely used for the treatment of breast cancer and urothelial carcinoma, but available information regarding adverse events (AEs) is limited. We aim to explore the AE induced by sacituzumab govitecan by mining the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) database. The association between sacituzumab govitecan and AEs was evaluated using the information component. A multivariate logistic regression analysis was conducted for all identified signals to explore the risk factors associated with AEs leading to hospitalization. In total, 1,884 reports related to sacituzumab govitecan were retrieved, and 114 AE signals involving 20 systems were identified. The median time for onset of AEs was ~ 6-7 days after initiating treatment with sacituzumab govitecan, with over 80% of AEs occurring within 30 days. Subgroup analysis revealed that 14 signals were reported in men and 110 in women. There were 58 signals reported in patients under 65 following the use of sacituzumab govitecan, 59 signals in patients over 65, and 31 signals were present in both groups. Multivariable analysis showed that being male and the occurrence of colitis, pneumonitis, febrile neutropenia, pyrexia, sepsis, dehydration, and diarrhea were risk factors leading to hospitalization with an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.89. Additionally, sensitivity analysis revealed that this study had good robustness. This is the first retrospective analysis based on FAERS to review the safety of sacituzumab govitecan. The results highlight the need to closely monitor adverse reactions such as neutropenia, diarrhea, colitis, and sepsis when using sacituzumab govitecan.

Abstract
Atypical femur fracture (AFF) is a rare but catastrophic adverse event first reported in the long-term use of alendronate, one of the most commonly used drugs for osteoporosis currently. However, further evidence is needed to learn more regarding other common anti-osteoporosis drugs and the risk for AFF. In this study, reports of AFF were identified from Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System database. Disproportionality analyses were performed to examine the reporting odds ratio (ROR), information component (IC) and adjusted ROR (adj. ROR) signals for AFF for common anti-osteoporosis drugs. A total of 1692 unique AFF reports were identified. The disproportionality signals (the lower bound of 95% confidence interval > 1 for ROR and adjusted ROR, and > 0 for IC) were detected for alendronate, denosumab, pamidronate, risedronate, zoledronate, ibandronate, and teriparatide while no signal was detected for raloxifene, abaloparatide, and romosozumab. When restricted in patients with osteoporosis, the disproportionality signals were still detected for alendronate, pamidronate, risedronate, denosumab, and ibandronate. Our results suggest that alendronate has the largest risk signal, while the risks varied among different bisphosphonates. In addition, denosumab was found statistically associated with AFF in both the entire database and patients with osteoporosis.

Cancers (Basel) 2022; 15:cancers15010240. [PMID: 36612235 PMCID: PMC9818197 DOI: 10.3390/cancers15010240] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/28/2022] [Revised: 12/23/2022] [Accepted: 12/26/2022] [Indexed: 01/03/2023] Open
Abstract
Background: Although some sepsis cases were reported with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) in clinical trials, the link between pulmonary sepsis and ICIs remains mostly unknown. We aim to investigate the association between pulmonary sepsis and ICIs, and to describe the clinical features. Methods: A disproportionality analysis was performed using FAERS data and compared rates of pulmonary sepsis in cancer patients receiving ICIs vs. other drug regimens (such as chemotherapy and targeted therapy). Associations between ICIs and sepsis were assessed using reporting odds ratios (ROR) and information component (IC). We also detected drug interaction signals based on the Ω shrinkage measure. Age and gender distribution were compared between pulmonary sepsis and all adverse events associated with ICIs. Results: We identified 120 reports of pulmonary sepsis associated with ICIs between Q1, 2011 to Q3, 2021. A total of 82 of 120 (68.3%) patients on ICIs suffered from pulmonary sepsis and progressed to death. In addition, there is no significant difference in age and gender in the occurrence of pulmonary sepsis in cancer patients on ICIs. Overall ICIs, nivolumab, and atezolizumab still have a significant signal of pulmonary sepsis (ROR025 > 1, IC025 > 0, p < 0.001) compared with targeted therapy (such as tyrosine kinase inhibitors) or chemotherapy. Co-administration of ICIs and glucocorticoids or proton pump inhibitors synergistically increased the risk of pulmonary sepsis (Ω025 > 0). Conclusions: Our study suggested ICIs, especially nivolumab and atezolizumab, tended to increase the risk of pulmonary sepsis more than other anticancer regimens. Clinicians should be vigilant in the prevention and management of pulmonary sepsis during ICIs therapy.
