Zhao Y, Fei L, Duan Y. Movement disorders related to antidiabetic medications: a real-world pharmacovigilance study. Prog Neuropsychopharmacol Biol Psychiatry 2024; 135:111128. [PMID: 39181309 DOI: 10.1016/j.pnpbp.2024.111128] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/22/2024] [Revised: 08/08/2024] [Accepted: 08/21/2024] [Indexed: 08/27/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Diabetic Mellitus (DM) has progressively emerged as a worldwide health problem, leading to the widespread deployment of antidiabetic drugs as the primary therapy in the global population. The incidence of diabetes medications-related movement disorders (drMD) is noteworthy but underestimated by clinical practitioners. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS In order to address the incidence of drMD in DM patients and realize the serious outcomes associated with drMD, we conducted a real-world pharmacovigilance study of 612,043 DM patients using the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) database from January 2004 to September 2023. Reporting Odd Ratio (ROR) was calculated to reflect the risk of drMD. A multivariable logistic regression analysis was employed to adjust crude ROR with the mixed factors including age, sex and various antidiabetic treatments. Afterward, a Mendelian Randomization (MR) study was performed to elucidate the underlying genetic correlation between the genetically proxied targets of antidiabetic drugs and motor disorders. RESULTS Among 11,729 cases of motor adverse events in DM patients, six categories of drMD were significantly associated with DM medications. Noticeably, metformin was revealed to drastically increase the incidence of parkinsonism (adjusted ROR:3.97; 95 %CI (3.03, 5.19), p = 5.68e-24), bradykinesia (adjusted ROR:1.69; 95 %CI (1.07,2.59), p = 0.02) and irregular hyperkinesia, including chorea, choreoathetosis and athetosis. Insulin/insulin analogues and GLP-1 analogues presented notably higher odds of tremor: the adjusted ROR (aROR) of insulin and GLP-1 analogue is respectively 1.24 (95 %CI (1.15,1.34), p = 2.51e-08) and 1.78 (95 %CI (1.65,1.91), p = 5.64e-54). The combined therapeutic effects of multiple genetic variants of metformin, especially AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) were markedly linked to a greater likelihood of developing secondary parkinsonism (OR:10.816, p = 0.049) according to MR analyses. CONCLUSION The use of antidiabetic medications was significantly related to an increased incidence of movement disorders in DM patients. Moreover, MR analyses provided further genetic evidence for the pharmacovigilance study. This comprehensive investigation might help physicians recognize neurological adverse events associated with antidiabetic treatments and administer effective interventions.

[PMID: 39345748 PMCID: PMC11436521 DOI: 10.1007/s43188-024-00256-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/28/2024] [Revised: 06/20/2024] [Accepted: 07/10/2024] [Indexed: 10/01/2024] Open
Abstract
The purpose of this study was to analyze the important medical events (IMEs) of anti-severe acute respiratory syndrome-coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) monoclonal antibodies using the reports from the United States Food and Drug Administration (US FDA) adverse event reporting system (FAERS) and to detect safety signals. In this study, data from the FAERS from January 2020 to December 2022 were used to investigate signals associated with five monoclonal antibody products (bamlanivimab, bamlanivimab/etesevimab, bebtelovimab, casirivimab/imdevimab, sotrovimab) in coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients and one monoclonal antibody product (tixagevimab/cilgavimab) in patients wherein COVID-19 vaccination was not recommended. Disproportionality analyses were conducted using the reporting odds ratio, and an information component to identify safety signals. There were 17,937,860 drug AE reports associated with all drugs in the FAERS documented during research period. Among them, 42,642 were AE reports associated with anti-SARS-CoV-2 monoclonal antibodies. The SOCs including respiratory, thoracic and mediastinal, and vascular disorders were frequently reported for all the six products. The three most commonly detected IMEs were hypoxia, COVID-19 pneumonia, and anaphylactic reaction due to SARS-CoV-2 neutralizing antibodies. Even though the purposes of use were different, the types of signals between drugs were similar. Careful monitoring of these AEs should be considered for certain COVID-19 patients, at risk, when they are treated with monoclonal antibody products.

Abstract
Background Sorafenib is approved for the targeted therapy of cancers such as liver cancer and renal cancer. Given its widespread use, drug-related adverse events have received attention, and the post-marketing regulatory link is crucial. Objective By using the FAERS database to mine the adverse events (AEs) related to sorafenib, comparing the association intensity of key AEs, and exploring potential drug-related AEs, it provides a reference for clinical medication. Methods Collect ADE data related to sorafenib in the FAERS database from 2006 to 2023. Standardize the data, and map adverse events to system organ classes and preferred terms. Analyze using various signal quantification techniques such as ROR, PRR, BCPNN, and MGPS. Results Among 18,520 adverse event reports (AERs) where sorafenib was the primary suspected drug, a total of 390 preferred terms (PTs) of adverse reactions were identified, covering 24 different system organ classes (SOCs). Specifically, the adverse events of sorafenib mainly involve the digestive system, skin and subcutaneous tissue, as well as non-specific physical discomfort including infection and injury. Among them, digestive system symptoms and skin toxicity are typical adverse reactions of sorafenib. We also observed uncommon but clearly strong AE signals, such as chloracne (n = 3, ROR 1756.39, PRR 1756.32, IC 8.78, EBGM 439.83), low-differentiated thyroid cancer (n = 4, ROR 585.47, PRR 585.44, IC 8.2, EBGM 293.22). It is worth noting that palmar-plantar erythrodysaesthesia syndrome (n = 2109, ROR 73.98, PRR 72.03, IC 6.01, EBGM 64.25) and hepatic encephalopathy (n = 457, ROR 37.44, PRR 37.23, IC 5.13, EBGM 35.07) have a higher incidence and signal intensity. In addition, we also observed some adverse events not mentioned in the official drug instructions, such as vitamin K deficiency or increased protein induced by antagonist II (PIVKA-II), abnormal alpha-fetoprotein, tumor metastasis, and splenic atrophy. Conclusion Sorafenib carries the risk of various adverse reactions while providing therapeutic effects. In clinical applications, physicians should closely monitor the occurrence of digestive system reactions, skin lesions, endocrine system lesions, as well as injuries, infections, and other events.

Sci Rep 2024; 14:22199. [PMID: 39333574 PMCID: PMC11436968 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-72864-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/26/2024] [Accepted: 09/11/2024] [Indexed: 09/29/2024] Open
Abstract
Combining the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) and the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) databases, we aim to explore the factors that influence anti-programmed cell death protein-1 inhibitors/programmed death-ligand-1 (PD-1/PD-L1) related severe cardiac adverse events (cAEs). We obtained anti-PD-1/PD-L1 adverse event reports from January 2014 to December 2022 from the FAERS database. Disproportionality analysis was performed to find anti-PD-1/PD-L1-related cAEs using the proportional reporting ratio (PRR). We were exploring influencing factors based on multivariate logistic regression analysis. Finally, we utilized a strategy that combines FAERS and TCGA databases to explore the potential immune and genetic influencing factors associated with anti-PD-1/PD-L1-related severe cAEs. Reports of severe cAEs accounted for 7.10% of the overall anti-PD-1/PD-L1 adverse event reports in the FAERS database. Immune-mediated myocarditis (PRR = 77.01[59.77-99.23]) shows the strongest toxic signal. The elderly group (65-74: OR = 1.34[1.23-1.47], ≥ 75: OR = 1.64[1.49-1.81]), male (OR = 1.14[1.05-1.24]), anti-PD-L1 agents (OR = 1.17[1.03-1.33]), patients with other adverse events (OR = 2.38[2.17-2.60]), and the concomitant use of proton pump inhibitor (OR = 1.29[1.17-1.43]), nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (OR = 1.17[1.04-1.31]), or antibiotics (OR = 1.24[1.08-1.43]) may increase the risk of severe cAEs. In addition, PD-L1 mRNA (Rs = 0.71, FDR = 2.30 × 10- 3) and low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 3 (LRP3) (Rs = 0.82, FDR = 2.17 × 10- 2) may be immune and genetic influencing factors for severe cAEs. Severe cAEs may be related to antigen receptor-mediated signalling pathways. In this study, we found that age, gender, anti-PD-1/PD-L1 agents, concomitant other adverse events, concomitant medication, PD-L1 mRNA, and LRP3 may be influencing factors for anti-PD-1/PD-L1-related severe cAEs. However, our findings still require a large-scale prospective cohort validation.

Real-World Large Sample Assessment of Drug-Related Dry Eye Risk: Based on the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System Database. Asia Pac J Ophthalmol (Phila) 2024:100104. [PMID: 39343068 DOI: 10.1016/j.apjo.2024.100104] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/25/2024] [Revised: 08/28/2024] [Accepted: 09/19/2024] [Indexed: 10/01/2024] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE AND DESIGN This study aimed to evaluate the risk of drug-related dry eye using real-world data, underscoring the significance of tracing pharmacological etiology for distinct clinical types of dry eye. METHODS Analyzing adverse event reports in the Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) from January 2004 to September 2023, we employed disproportionality analysis and the Bayesian confidence propagation neural network algorithm. The analysis involved categorizing drugs causing dry eye, assessing risk levels, and conducting segmental assessments based on the time of onset of drug-related dry eye adverse reactions. RESULTS In the FAERS database, adverse reactions related to dry eye were linked to 1160 drugs. Disproportionality analysis identified 33 drugs with significant risk, notably in ophthalmic (brimonidine, bimatoprost), oncology (tisotumab vedotin, erdafitinib), and other medications (isotretinoin, oxymetazoline). The top three drugs with the highest risk of drug-related dry eye are isotretinoin (Bayesian confidence propagation neural network (BCPNN) = 6.88), tisotumab vedotin (BCPNN = 6.88), and brimonidine (BCPNN = 6.77). Among different categories of drugs, respiratory medications have the shortest mean onset time for drug-related dry eye, averaging 50.99 days. The prevalence skewed towards females (69.9%), particularly in menopausal and elderly individuals (45-70 years old, mean age 54.7 ± 18.2). Reports of drug-related dry eye adverse reactions showed an annual increase. CONCLUSION Informed clinical decision-making is crucial for preventing drug-related dry eye. Assessing the risk of dry eyes associated with both local and systemic medications helps optimize treatment and provide necessary cautionary information.

Ren X, Li L, Chen Y, Cui X, Wan R, Wang Y. Adverse reactions of immune checkpoint inhibitors combined with Proton pump inhibitors: a pharmacovigilance analysis of drug-drug interactions. BMC Cancer 2024; 24:1193. [PMID: 39334098 PMCID: PMC11438026 DOI: 10.1186/s12885-024-12947-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/27/2024] [Accepted: 09/12/2024] [Indexed: 09/30/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Combining immune checkpoint and proton pump inhibitors is widely used in cancer treatment. However, the drug-drug interactions of these substances are currently unknown. This study aimed to explore drug-drug interactions associated with concomitant immune checkpoint and proton pump inhibitors. METHODS Data were obtained from the US Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System from 2014 to 2023. Disproportionality analysis was used for data mining by calculating the reporting odds ratios (RORs) with 95% confidence intervals (95%Cls). The adjusted RORs (RORadj) were then analysed using logistic regression analysis, considering age, sex, and reporting year. Drug-drug interactions occur when a combination treatment enhances the frequency of an event. Further confirmation of the robustness of the findings was achieved using additive and multiplicative models, which are the two statistical methodologies for signal detection of DDIs using spontaneous reporting system. RESULTS The total number of reports on immune checkpoint combined with proton pump inhibitors was 4,276. Median patient age was 66 years (interquartile range [IQR]: 60-74 years). Significant interaction signals were observed for congenital, familial and genetic disorders (RORadj = 2.66, 95%CI, 1.38-5.14, additive models = 0.7322, multiplicative models = 3.5142), hepatobiliary disorders (RORcrude = 6.64, 95%CI, 5.82-7.58, RORadj = 7.10, 95%CI, 6.16-8.18, additive models = 2.0525, multiplicative models = 1.1622), metabolism and nutrition disorders (RORcrude = 3.27, 95%CI, 2.90-3.69, RORadj = 2.66, 95%CI, 2.30-3.08, additive models = 0.6194), and skin and subcutaneous tissue disorders (RORcrude = 1.41, 95%CI, 1.26-1.58, RORadj = 1.53, 95%CI, 1.34-1.75, additive models = 0.6927, multiplicative models = 5.3599). Subset data analysis showed that programmed death-1 combined with proton pump inhibitors was associated with congenital, familial, and genetic disorders; hepatobiliary disorders; and skin and subcutaneous tissue disorders. Programmed death ligand-1 combined with proton pump inhibitors was associated with adverse reactions of metabolism and nutrition disorders. Cytotoxic T-lymphocyte antigen-4 combined with proton pump inhibitors was associated with congenital, familial, and genetic disorders, and skin and subcutaneous tissue disorders. CONCLUSIONS Based on real-world data, four Standardized MedDRA Query System Organ Class toxicities were identified as drug-drug interactions associated with combining immune checkpoint and proton pump inhibitors. Clinicians should be cautious when administering these drugs concomitantly. Preclinical trials and robust clinical studies are required to explore the mechanisms and relationships underlying interactions, thus improving understanding of drug-drug interactions associated with this combination therapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The objective of this study was to compare the safety profiles of OCA and UDCA for the treatment of PBC using the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System database. METHODS We extracted reports for OCA from 2016 to 2023 and UDCA from 2004 to 2023. Demographic details, adverse events (AEs), and concomitant medications were analyzed using descriptive statistics and signal detection methods. RESULTS The most common for OCA were pruritus (1345 cases, ROR 20.96) and fatigue (528 cases, ROR 3.46). UDCA was more frequently associated with hepatocellular carcinoma (22 cases, ROR 16.37) and type I hypersensitivity reactions (11 cases, ROR 12.77). OCA was also linked to a higher frequency of constipation (161 cases, ROR 3.92) and increased blood alkaline phosphatase levels (145 cases, ROR 44.27). CONCLUSION This study reveals distinct safety profiles for OCA and UDCA in the treatment of PBC. OCA is associated with a higher frequency of pruritus, fatigue, constipation, and increased blood alkaline phosphatase levels, while UDCA is linked to hepatocellular carcinoma and type I hypersensitivity reactions. These findings support personalized treatment approaches based on individual patient characteristics.

Expert Opin Drug Saf 2024:1-12. [PMID: 39083397 DOI: 10.1080/14740338.2024.2387317] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/19/2024] [Revised: 06/18/2024] [Accepted: 06/27/2024] [Indexed: 08/02/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The Phosphoinositide 3-kinases (PI3Ks) family plays a crucial role in tumorigenesis. Alpelisib (inhibiting PI3Kα), copanlisib (inhibiting PI3Kα andPI3Kδ), duvelisib (inhibiting PI3Kδ and PI3Kγ), and idelalisib (inhibiting PI3Kδ) were developed to target the PI3K pathway. However, the toxicity limits their application to some extent. It's necessary to investigate the adverse effects (AEs) of these inhibitors. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS We conducted a comparative analysis of the safety signals of AEs in PI3K inhibitors using disproportionality analysis in the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System database(FAERS). RESULTS Our study identified significant safety signals for metabolic disorders with all PI3K inhibitors. Notable safety signals for gastrointestinal disorders were observed with most PI3K inhibitors, with the exception of copanlisib. Common AEs shared among all PI3K inhibitors included colitis and dehydration. Alpelisib displayed unique AEs associated with metabolic disorders, whereas copanlisib exhibited idiosyncratic AEs linked to cardiac and vascular disorders. Stevens-Johnson syndrome emerged as a common severe adverse event (SAE) among alpelisib, copanlisib, and idelalisib, while febrile neutropenia was prevalent among copanlisib, duvelisib, and idelalisib. Intestinal perforation was solely associated with alpelisib. CONCLUSIONS The safety profiles of the five PI3K inhibitors vary concerning adverse events. These findings could guide drug selection and inform future prospective research.

Abstract
Background This study aimed to determine the association of Torsade de Pointes (TdP) with anxiolytic drugs and present a detailed overview of anxiolytic-induced cases of TdP reported to the Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS). Methods All cases of anxiolytic-induced TdP (n = 260) between 1990 and 2020 were retrieved from the FAERS database using the Preferred Term 'Torsade de Pointes, code: 10044066' from the Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities (MedDRA version 22). Four data-mining algorithms were used for disproportionality analysis: Reporting Odds Ratio (ROR), Proportional Reporting Ratio (PRR), Empirical Bayes Geometric Mean (EBGM), and Information Content (IC). Anxiolytics with ≥3 TdP cases were included. Results Of a total of eight drugs, this study identified seven signals of TdP, of which six signals were new, namely for alprazolam, bromazepam, lorazepam, meprobamate, midazolam, and oxazepam. Based on disproportionality analysis, among new signals, the highest risk of TdP was observed with bromazepam and midazolam. Alprazolam showed the lowest risk for TdP, while diazepam did not reach significant disproportionality. Conclusions This study identified six new signals of TdP among anxiolytic drugs, so warranting stringent clinical studies to ascertain the actual risk of TdP and ensure patient safety. Clinical Trial Registration This study is registered at ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT.gov ID: NCT04293432).

[PMID: 39281579 PMCID: PMC11402230 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e37112] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/21/2024] [Revised: 08/23/2024] [Accepted: 08/27/2024] [Indexed: 09/18/2024] Open
Abstract
The levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system (LNG-IUS) is an established, long-acting contraceptive option. With the widespread use of the LNG-IUS, drug-reported adverse events (AEs) have also garnered significant attention. In this study, we conducted a real-world analysis using the FDA's Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) database to assess the incidence of AEs associated with LNG-IUS use. Data from FAERS spanning from 2004Q1 to 2024Q1 were reviewed, with a focus on reports in which LNG-IUS was the primary suspected and secondary suspect drug. Signal detection was carried out utilizing Standardized MedDRA Queries (SMQ) and Preferred Terms (PT), with reporting odds ratio (ROR), proportional reporting ratio (PRR), and information component (IC) employed to identify Signals of Disproportionate Reporting (SDR) for AEs. A positive SDR was defined when all three methods indicated significance. Analysis of 13 SMQs revealed notable SDRs in ear and eye disorders, cardiac arrhythmias, and lipodystrophy. Of the 61 suspected SDRs identified at the PT level, nearly half were not previously documented in labeling. Key potential signals of AEs associated with LNG-IUS use included increased heart rate, papilledema, idiopathic intracranial hypertension, cervical dysplasia, ruptured ovarian cyst, and uterine embedment and perforation. The findings underscore the importance of signal detection using FAERS data for identifying safety concerns related to LNG-IUS. Long-term observational studies are warranted to confirm and further elucidate these potential safety signals.

Abstract
BACKGROUND ORENITRAM, an oral treprostinil formulation, was approved in 2013 for pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) treatment, necessitating ongoing safety monitoring. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS This retrospective analysis used FDA Adverse Event Reporting System data from Q4 2013 to Q4 2023, employing disproportionality analysis and the reporting odds ratio (ROR) to identify adverse events (AEs) linked with ORENITRAM. RESULTS Out of 15,660,695 reports, ORENITRAM was the primary suspect in 10,125 cases. We identified 174 significant adverse events across 27 organ systems, with notable issues like pulmonary edema, ascites, and ventricular fibrillation. Females reported more AEs (75.6%) than males (24.0%), suggesting potential metabolic differences. AEs were most common within 30 days of starting treatment or after one year. CONCLUSIONS The study indicates significant safety issues with ORENITRAM, including serious unexpected events such as pulmonary edema, ascites, and ventricular fibrillation. These findings highlight the necessity for careful clinical monitoring and effective risk management, particularly with observed gender differences in AE profiles. The study's retrospective nature and reliance on spontaneous reports may affect result generalizability.

Ther Adv Drug Saf 2024; 15:20420986241274909. [PMID: 39247253 PMCID: PMC11380128 DOI: 10.1177/20420986241274909] [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: 11/16/2023] [Accepted: 07/25/2024] [Indexed: 09/10/2024] Open
Abstract
Background The use of antineoplastic agents is one of the important triggers of tumor lysis syndrome (TLS), but there is still a lack of comprehensive understanding of antineoplastic agents that may trigger TLS and the TLS risk differences between different antineoplastic agents. Objectives This study aims to investigate the TLS risk of different antineoplastic agents and provide reference information for clinical practice. Design Real-world adverse events data in the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) database were used as the basis for the disproportionality analysis. Methods We reviewed the TLS reports in the FAERS database from 2004 to 2022 to summarize an antineoplastic agent list that was reported to trigger TLS, based on which we conducted disproportionality analysis to assess the TLS risk of each antineoplastic agent. Results In all, 164 antineoplastic agents were reported to trigger TLS. On the whole, rituximab was the most reported antineoplastic agent in TLS reports, followed by cyclophosphamide, venetoclax, doxorubicin, and etoposide, while tagraxofusp was the antineoplastic agent with the highest adverse drug reaction (ADR) signal strength in signal detection, followed by floxuridine, pentostatin, tebentafusp, and venetoclax. Integrating ADR signal detection results, 129 of 164 antineoplastic agents showed at least one positive ADR signal, and six antineoplastic agents (bevacizumab, carboplatin, cisplatin, fluorouracil, lenvatinib, and paclitaxel) have the highest total number of positive signals. Further classifying the 164 antineoplastic agents into 46 chemical subgroups to conduct ADR signal detection, nitrogen mustard analogs were the most reported antineoplastic agent subclasses, followed by clusters of differentiation 20 inhibitors, and pyrimidine analogs, while clusters of differentiation 22 inhibitors were the antineoplastic agent subclass with the highest ADR signal strength, followed by podophyllotoxin derivatives and actinomycines. Conclusion Our study showed the TLS risk characteristics of 164 antineoplastic agents by detecting and integrating ADR signals, which may help to optimize clinical practice.

Abstract
Background and Aim Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are commonly used to treat fever, pain, and inflammation. Concerns regarding their cardiovascular safety have been raised. However, the underlying mechanism behind these events remains unknown. We aim to investigate the cardiovascular safety signals and receptor mechanisms of NSAIDs, employing a comprehensive approach that integrates pharmacovigilance and pharmacodynamics. Methods This study utilized a pharmacovigilance-pharmacodynamic approach to evaluate the cardiovascular safety of NSAIDs and explore potential receptor mechanisms involved. Data were analyzed using the OpenVigil 2.1 web application, which grants access to the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) database, in conjunction with the BindingDB database, which provides target information on the pharmacodynamic properties of NSAIDs. Disproportionality analysis employing the Empirical Bayes Geometric Mean (EBGM) and Reporting Odds Ratio (ROR) methods was conducted to identify signals for reporting cardiovascular-related adverse drug events (ADEs) associated with 13 NSAIDs. This analysis encompassed three System Organ Classes (SOCs) associated with the cardiovascular system: blood and lymphatic system disorders, cardiac disorders, and vascular disorders. The primary targets were identified through the receptor-NSAID interaction network. Ordinary least squares (OLS) regression models explored the relationship between pharmacovigilance signals and receptor occupancy rate. Results A total of 201,231 reports of cardiovascular-related ADEs were identified among the 13 NSAIDs. Dizziness, anemia, and hypertension were the most frequently reported Preferred Terms (PTs). Overall, nimesulide and parecoxib exhibited the strongest signal strengths of ADEs at SOC levels related to the cardiovascular system. On the other hand, our data presented naproxen and diclofenac as drugs of comparatively low signal strength. Cyclooxygenase-1 (COX-1) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) were identified as central targets. OLS regression analysis revealed that the normalized occupancy rate for either COX-1 or COX-2 was significantly inversely correlated with the log-transformed signal measures for blood and lymphatic system disorders and vascular disorders, and positively correlated with cardiac disorders and vascular disorders, respectively. This suggests that higher COX-2 receptor occupancy is associated with an increased cardiovascular risk from NSAIDs. Conclusion Cardiovascular safety of NSAIDs may depend on pharmacodynamic properties, specifically, the percentage of the occupied cyclooxygenase isoenzymes. More studies are needed to explore these relations and improve the prescription process.

Safety assessment of anti-B cell maturation antigen chimeric antigen receptor T cell therapy: a real-world study based on the FDA adverse event reporting system database. Front Immunol 2024; 15:1433075. [PMID: 39290710 PMCID: PMC11405296 DOI: 10.3389/fimmu.2024.1433075] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/15/2024] [Accepted: 08/09/2024] [Indexed: 09/19/2024] Open
Abstract
Background On April 18, 2024, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration officially required updating of the "boxed warning" for T cell malignancies for all chimeric antigen receptor T cell (CAR-T) therapies. Given the clinical significance of these therapies, a rigorous safety assessment is paramount. However, comprehensive real-world safety studies have been lacking for the newly marketed CAR-T products idecabtagene vicleucel (ide-cel) and ciltacabtagene autoleucel (cilta-cel), which target B cell maturation antigen, especially regarding the risk of secondary malignancies. Therefore, we aimed to thoroughly analyze the adverse events (AEs) information in the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) database to comprehensively understand the safety risks of ide-cel and cilta-cel. Methods We extracted AE reports related to ide-cel and cilta-cel from the FAERS database (https://fis.fda.gov/extensions/FPD-QDE-FAERS/FPD-QDE-FAERS.html.) from January 1, 2019 to December 31, 2023. Disproportionality analysis and Bayesian analysis were used to identify risk signals across subgroups and specific cases (including for death and secondary malignancies). Weibull distribution analysis was employed to determine the time to AE onset. Results A total of 695 AE reports for ide-cel and 848 for cilta-cel were included in the FAERS database. This analysis identified 81 positive signals for ide-cel and 74 for cilta-cel. Notably, comparisons with the drug labels revealed "unexpected signals," including febrile bone marrow aplasia (reporting odds ratio=69.10; confidence interval 39.12-122.03) and plasma cell myeloma (12.45; 8.18-18.95) for ide-cel, and increased serum ferritin (24.98; 8.0-77.58) and large intestine perforation (18.57; 5.98-57.69) for cilta-cel. Both drugs showed a higher AE incidence among male recipients and patients aged ≥65 years, although female recipients faced a greater risk. Most AEs occurred at the early stage of administration. However, secondary malignancies were detected for both drugs, primarily occurring one-year post-administration. Conclusion This study provides a foundation for understanding the safety profile of CAR-T cell therapy, particularly in relation to the emergence of secondary malignancies. Such insights are helpful for clinical decision-making and the safe and effective utilization of these therapeutic agents.

Abstract
Background Hypertension is a common complication in patients with osteoarthritis (OA). There is increasing interest in the relationship between hypertension and OA. However, hypertension has been reported to negatively affect symptoms and quality of life in patients with OA. Therefore, treating hypertension is crucial for patients with OA. However, there is a lack of real-world studies on the effects of medications for treating hypertension on OA. Methods Data from the FAERS database from January 2004 to December 2023 were extracted for disproportionality analyses, and proportional reporting ratios (PRRs) were used to assess the association between medications for hypertension and all types of arthritis. Adverse event signals were identified and determined using reporting odds ratios (RORs) Adverse event signals were considered to have occurred if a drug-induced adverse event was recorded more than or equal to 3 and the lower limit of the ROR confidence interval was more than 1. We selected five classes of drugs including, calcium channel blockers (CCBs), angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEIs), angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs), thiazide diuretics and β-blockers and representative drugs were analysed for osteoarthritis-related adverse reactions, and age and gender subgroups were analysed for drugs of significance. We also analysed the occurrence of AEs in relation to time using the Weibull distribution. Results In terms of overall data, we found significant OA adverse reaction signals only for ARBs among the five drug classes.ARB AEs for spinal osteoarthritis (ROR 4.64, 95% CI 3.62-5.94), osteoarthritis (ROR 3.24 95% CI 2.82-3.72) and gouty arthritis (ROR 3.27 95% CI 1.22-8.75) were the three adverse reactions with the loudest signals. Next, we found that valsartan had strong osteoarthritis adverse reaction signals among the three ARBs, namely, irbesartan, cloxartan, and valsartan. We also analysed age and gender subgroups and found that osteoarthritis signals were strongest in the 18-65 and 65+ population, while females seem to be more prone to valsartan-related OA AEs. Conclusion ARBs, especially valsartan, have significant positive signals for OA AEs. Therefore, ARB drugs, especially valsartan, should be used with caution when treating patients with OA combined with hypertension.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with dementia are prescribed low-dose atypical antipsychotics (AAPs) to treat psycho-behavioral symptoms. Although AAPs are known to cause diabetes mellitus-related adverse events (DMAEs), information regarding AAPs-induced DMAEs experienced by patients with dementia is lacking. OBJECTIVE To use the Japan Adverse Drug Event Report (JADER) database to assess the onset tendencies and patterns of DMAEs attributable to AAPs prescribed to patients with dementia. METHODS We performed an analysis using dementia cases from the JADER database that were registered from April 2004 to December 2022. Data in the JADER database are completely anonymized; thus, we did not require institutional review board approval for using the JADER database in our study. The reporting odds ratio and proportional reporting ratio (PRR) were used to assess the onset tendencies of DMAEs with AAPs. In addition, Weibull shape parameters were used to assess the patterns of DMAEs that occur with the use of AAPs. RESULTS We identified AAPs associated with DMAEs. In particular, low doses of quetiapine showed the potential to induce DMAEs. An analysis of the onset of DMAEs showed the early failure patterns for AAPs (median onset = 38 days). CONCLUSION AND RELEVANCE The AAPs may cause DMAEs in patients with dementia. Low doses of quetiapine may induce DMAEs. Health care workers should focus on the development of DMAEs during the early administration period of AAPs. These results may assist with the safe management of patients with dementia who use AAPs.

OBJECTIVES To evaluate otologic adverse reactions (OARs), including hearing loss (OARs-HL) among patients taking teprotumumab, a new biologic approved for the treatment of active thyroid eye disease, using publicly available pharmacovigilance reporting data. STUDY DESIGN Retrospective database review. METHODS The Food and Drug Administration Adverse Events Reporting System (FAERS) was queried for cases involving teprotumumab from 2020Q1 to 2023Q1. Patient demographics and adverse reactions (OAR and OAR-HL) were evaluated. Logistic regression was used to predict OAR and OAR-HL, and disproportionality analysis was performed using OpenVigil. RESULTS A total of 2,109 teprotumumab-AR cases were reported, of which 296 (14.05%; mean age 55.46 yr) were OARs. Of these, 149 (7.06%) reported OAR-HL and 194 (9.20%) reported other OAR (e.g., tinnitus, ear discomfort, vertigo), with 47 (2.23%) reporting both. Disproportionality analysis showed a reported odds ratio (ROR) for OARs-HL of 44.33 (95% confidence interval [CI], 37.40-52.55; p < 0.001). Age was associated with RORs of 1.02 (95% CI, 1.01-1.04) and 1.04 (95% CI, 1.02-1.07) for developing OARs and specifically OARs-HL, respectively (p < 0.01). Age 50 and 65 years and older were associated with RORs of 2.54 (95% CI, 1.16-6.38) and 3.36 (95% CI, 1.75-6.53), respectively, for OARs-HL (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION This study using FAERS data suggests an increased risk of OARs, specifically hearing loss, associated with teprotumumab. Increasing age was a significant predictor of OARs. Audiometric counseling and evaluation should be considered with teprotumumab therapy in Graves' orbitopathy patients, especially in older patients.

He Y, Zhang R, Shen H, Liu Y. A real-world disproportionality analysis of FDA adverse event reporting system (FAERS) events for denosumab. Front Pharmacol 2024; 15:1339721. [PMID: 39329118 PMCID: PMC11424875 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2024.1339721] [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: 11/16/2023] [Accepted: 08/20/2024] [Indexed: 09/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Denosumab is authorized to treat several diseases, including cancer and bone disorders. Nevertheless, its use in clinical practice has been affected by safety concerns. The work retrospectively investigated adverse events (AEs) of denosumab to better understand toxicities. Methods The FAERS data base data from Q1 of 2010 to Q3 of 2023 was chosen. The definition of Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities (MedDRA) was dependent on preferred terms (PTs) and system organ class (SOCs). Following the removal of duplicate reports, a disproportionality analysis was conducted to identify safety signals through the calculation of reporting odds ratios (ROR). Results During the reporting period, 130611 denosumab-related cases were identified; 670 pTs with a substantial disproportionality were retained. The connective and musculoskeletal tissue disorders, poisoning, injury, and procedural complications, as well as medical and surgical procedures, were among the important SOCs that satisfied the criteria. Reports at PT levels including off-label use, death, osteonecrosis of the jaw, arthralgia, and pain in extremities were determined. Severe consequences in terms of life-threatening injuries and death accounted for 841 and 19704 cases, respectively of the reported cases. Conclusion These findings underscore the critical importance of pharmacovigilance and are consistent with established clinical observations. Notably, osteonecrosis of the jaw, arthralgia, pain in extremities, back pain, myalgia, and bone pain were identified as the most prevalent risk signals associated with denosumab.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sugammadex is a novel agent that reverses neuromuscular blockade during general anesthesia. Recent case reports have raised concerns regarding potential cardiac adverse events (CAEs). However, no large-scale real-world studies have yet evaluated the potential link between sugammadex and CAEs. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Data from the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System were obtained. The association between sugammadex and CAE was evaluated using reporting odds ratio, proportional reporting ratio, Bayesian confidence propagation neural network, and multi-item gamma Poisson shrinker methods. Serious outcomes resulting from sugammadex-related CAEs were assessed, and complications associated with CAEs were evaluated. RESULTS Nineteen CAEs were identified and classified into two categories: cardiac arrhythmias and coronary artery disorders. The most frequent CAEs were bradycardia (n = 202), cardiac arrest (n = 119), tachycardia (n = 30), and Kounis syndrome (n = 22). Subgroup analysis based on age, sex, and weight revealed parallel findings. The CAEs most likely to result in serious consequences were pulseless electrical activity and cardiac arrest. The most common concurrent adverse effects with CAEs were hypotension (n = 51), anaphylactic reactions (n = 46), and anaphylactic shock (n = 23). CONCLUSION This study suggests a potential link between sugammadex and CAEs, highlighting the need for careful monitoring and personalized risk assessment, especially in patients with cardiovascular risk factors.

Abstract
Objective This study utilizes the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) to investigate adverse drug event (ADE) signals linked to quinolones use (ciprofloxacin, moxifloxacin, levofloxacin, ofloxacin) in minors, offering insights for clinical use. Methods Minors were categorized into four age groups. ADE reports for these quinolones from the first quarter of 2015 to the third quarter of 2023 were extracted from the FAERS database. Data analysis used reporting odds ratio (ROR) and the MHRA method. Results Most ADE cases in minors involved ciprofloxacin (575)and levofloxacin (477). In the infant group, various injury, poisoning, and procedural complication events were more frequently associated with ciprofloxacin, levofloxacin, and moxifloxacin (19.83%, 31.25%, and 100.00%, respectively). In the preschool children group, psychiatric disorders were more frequently reported with levofloxacin and ofloxacin use (59.00% and 47.62%, respectively). Ocular disorders were notably associated with moxifloxacin in the children group (62.50%), In the adolescent group, more gastrointestinal diseases occurred with ciprofloxacin (12.96%). Conclusion ADE occurrence with quinolones in minors varies by age. Strict adherence to indications, rational use, avoiding prolonged use, and monitoring for short-term reactions are essential. Enhanced monitoring of interactions and drug education are crucial to reducing ADE.

J Infect Chemother 2024:S1341-321X(24)00233-2. [PMID: 39209260 DOI: 10.1016/j.jiac.2024.08.016] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/06/2024] [Revised: 08/20/2024] [Accepted: 08/25/2024] [Indexed: 09/04/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Daptomycin is a lipopeptide antibiotic with a broad spectrum of activity against gram-positive bacteria. Although information on daptomycin-induced adverse events can be found in clinical trials, data regarding the impact of age on these events are insufficient. Therefore, we evaluated whether age affects the occurrence of daptomycin-induced adverse events using adverse drug event reports in post-marketing stages provided by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). METHODS A total dataset of 7307 reports of patients treated with daptomycin in the FDA's Adverse Event Reporting System were analyzed. The patients were divided into seven age groups: 0-28 days, >28 days-23 months, 2-11 years, 12-17 years, 18-64 years, 65-80 years, and >80 years. A disproportionality analysis was conducted to calculate the reporting odds ratio, with a 95 % confidence interval. The univariate regression analysis was conducted using the percentage of each adverse event and age groups. RESULTS Compared with the number of reports aged 18-64 years, there were significantly increased reports of eosinophilic pneumonia in patients aged 65-80 years and >80 years, anaphylactic reaction and pseudomembranous colitis in patients aged 12-17 years, and acute renal failure in patients aged 65-80 years. The regression coefficient for the reporting proportion of eosinophilic pneumonia was significantly positive. CONCLUSIONS Our findings revealed age-related trends in daptomycin-induced adverse events, supporting the idea that implementing age-dependent follow-up and supportive care helps in the continuation of daptomycin therapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Inclisiran, the newest lipid-lowering drug, has not shown significant safety problems in major clinical studies. However, its recent market introduction and limited clinical use have produced few reports of adverse reactions, leaving a comprehensive understanding of its long-term safety yet to be established. AIM The aim of the study was to conduct a signal detection analysis of adverse events (AEs) associated with inclisiran using FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) datasets. METHOD Data on AEs associated with inclisiran were collected from the FAERS database from 2021 to 2023. Signal detection was conducted using the reporting odds ratio (ROR) and the information component (IC). The analysis was standardized using the Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities (MedDRA) and focused on System Organ Classes (SOCs) and Preferred Terms. RESULTS Of 17,307,196 AE reports, 2976 were relevant to inclisiran. The male-to-female ratio of these events was 0.74:1, predominantly in patients aged 45 to 74 years. A total of 102 AE signals associated with inclisiran were identified in 15 SOCs. Among these, 86 involved muscle injuries, liver injuries, diabetes, neurocognitive dysfunction, and other events not listed on the drug label. CONCLUSION The findings confirm all AEs documented on the drug label and in current clinical trials while also revealing new AEs such as muscle pain, elevated liver enzymes, increased blood glucose levels, and neurocognitive dysfunction. This study contributes to real-world research data, providing valuable references for rational drug use.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The comprehensive quantitative and comparative risk data of drug-induced erectile dysfunction (ED) are still lacking, and this study aims to supplement this information. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS We reviewed all the ED reports in the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) database from 2004 to 2023 and summarized a potential ED culprit-drug list and its corresponding reporting frequency. The reporting odds ratio (ROR) method was used to conduct disproportionality analysis. RESULTS A total of 20,098 ED reports were retrieved from the FAERS database, which recorded 734 different ED culprit-drugs, involving 74 drug classes. Finasteride was the drug with the highest reporting frequency, and urologicals was the drug class with the highest reporting frequency. In disproportionality analysis, 209 drugs with positive signals showed a close relationship with ED occurrence, among which finasteride was the drug with the highest signal strength. Among 209 drugs with positive signals, 27 were compound preparations, and the risk level of compound preparations was usually higher than their single active ingredient. CONCLUSIONS Our study integrated quantitative and comparative ED risk data of 734 drugs by using the FAERS database, which can provide reference information for regulators, medical personnel, and others involved in drug management and use.

Abstract
Trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1) is widely utilized as a second-line and subsequent treatment for metastatic HER2+ breast cancer and has shown promise in early breast cancer treatment, particularly in adjuvant settings for residual disease after neoadjuvant chemotherapy. However, concerns have arisen regarding long-term hepatic adverse drug reactions (ADRs) not identified in clinical trials. We investigated potential safety signals of T-DM1 in hepatobiliary disorders and the time-to-onset of ADRs using the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) database. Suspected ADRs were extracted and divided into two groups: T-DM1 (N = 3387) and other drugs (N = 11,833,701). Potential signal for T-DM1 in hepatobiliary disorder were identified (reporting odds ratio [ROR] = 5.66, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 5.11-6.27; information component [IC] = 2.35, 95% Credibility Interval [Crl] = 2.18-2.51). A breast cancer indicated subgroup analysis (2519 T-DM1; 172,329 other drugs) also identified a potential safety signal (ROR = 3.28, 95% CI = 2.92-3.68; IC = 1.53, 95%CrI = 1.35-1.71). The median time-to-onset for T-DM1-associated hepatobiliary disorders was 41 days. For prolonged and chronic hepatobiliary disorders, median times were 322.5 and 301.5 days, respectively. These findings highlight the need for further research to inform clinical decisions on optimal T-DM1 treatment duration, balancing benefits with potential adverse reactions.

Abstract
Objective Using the FDA adverse event reporting system (FAERS) database to analyze the safety profile of Dexmedetomidine and provide guidance for clinical application. Methods Data from the FAERS database from the first quarter of 2004 to the third quarter of 2023 were collected. Reporting odds ratio (ROR), the proportional reporting ratio (PRR), and the Bayesian confidence propagation neural network (BCPNN) were employed to detect and assess adverse events associated with Dexmedetomidine. Results A total of 1910 reports of Dexmedetomidine as the primary suspect drug were obtained. After screening, 892 preferred terms were obtained, including 52 new preferred terms not mentioned in the drug insert. The common adverse events of Dexmedetomidine include bradycardia, cardiac arrest, hypotension, diabetes insipidus, arteriospasm coronary and agitation. Notably, cardiac disorders exhibited the highest number of reports and the highest signal intensity in the system organ class. Among the new preferred terms, those with high signal intensity include transcranial electrical motor evoked potential monitoring abnormal, acute motor axonal neuropathy, trigemino-cardiac reflex, glossoptosis, floppy iris syndrome, phaeochromocytoma crisis, postresuscitation encephalopathy and diabetes insipidus. Conclusion This study mined and evaluated adverse events associated with Dexmedetomidine and also identified new adverse events. This could help alert clinicians to new adverse events not mentioned in the drug inserts, reducing the risk of drug.

Abstract
Prior research has indicated that bisphosphonates (BPs) can improve periodontal disease because of their anti-osteoporosis properties. In vitro studies have shown that BPs induce cytotoxicity, inhibit wound healing, and thus affect periodontal disease. Denosumab and BPs have alternative indications. BP and denosumab are not known to correlate with gingival disorders. We assessed such a relationship by applying Bayesian and nonproportional analyses to data in the US FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) database. The study analyzed BPs and denosumab-reported incidents with preferred terms found in the narrow Standardized MedDRA Queries for gingival disorders. A total of 5863 reported cases of gingival disorders were associated with five BPs (alendronate, pamidronate, ibandronate, risedronate, and zoledronate) and denosumab. More than 15% of patients with gingival disorders related to BPs and denosumab other than denosumab were hospitalized over short- or long-term periods. Our findings indicated BPs and denosumab had significant reporting odds ratios (ROR), proportional reporting ratios (PRR), and information components (IC) with respect to gingival disorders. Pamidronate had the highest association (ROR = 64.58, PRR = 57.99, IC = 5.71), while the weakest association was found with denosumab (ROR = 3.61, PRR = 3.60, IC = 1.77). Significant associations were found between the six drugs and gingival pain, gingival recession, gingivitis, periodontal disease, and periodontitis. In conclusion, our comprehensive overview of the correlations, clinical characteristics, and prognoses of BPs and denosumab-related gingival disorders suggests that these issues deserve continued surveillance and appropriate management.

Abstract
Background Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) have emerged as the focus and hotspots in the cancer field, yet the accompanying ocular toxicity has often been underestimated. We aimed to comprehensively and comparatively analyze the risk of ocular toxicity associated with various ADCs using the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) database. Methods Data were extracted from the FAERS database from Q3 2011 to Q3 2023. We analyzed the clinical characteristics of ADCs-related ocular adverse events (AEs). These data were further mined by proportional analysis and Bayesian approach to detect signals of ADCs-induced ocular AEs. Moreover, the time to onset of ocular toxicity was also evaluated. Results A total of 1,246 cases of ocular AEs were attributed to ADCs. Ocular toxicity signals were observed in patients treated with belantamab mafodotin, brentuximab vedotin, enfortumab vedotin, mirvetuximab soravtansine, sacituzumab govitecan, trastuzumab deruxtecan, and trastuzumab emtansine. Of these, belantamab mafodotin, trastuzumab emtansine, and mirvetuximab soravtansine, whose payloads are microtubule polymerization inhibitors, were more susceptible to ocular toxicity. The ten most common ADCs-related ocular AEs signals are keratopathy [ROR = 1,273.52, 95% CI (1,129.26-1,436.21)], visual acuity reduced [ROR = 22.83, 95% CI (21.2-24.58)], dry eye [ROR = 9.69, 95% CI (8.81-10.66)], night blindness [ROR = 259.87, 95% CI (228.23-295.89)], vision blurred [ROR = 1.78, 95% CI (1.57-2.02)], photophobia [ROR = 10.45, 95% CI (9.07-12.05)], foreign body sensation in eyes [ROR = 23.35, 95% CI (19.88-27.42)], ocular toxicity [ROR = 144.62, 95% CI (117.3-178.32)], punctate keratitis [ROR = 126.21, 95% CI (101.66-156.69)], eye disorder [ROR = 2.71, 95% CI (2.21-3.32)]. In terms of onset time, sacituzumab govitecan displayed an earlier onset of 21 days, while trastuzumab deruxtecan exhibited the latest onset of 223 days. Conclusion ADCs may increase the risk of ocular toxicity in cancer patients, leading to serious mortality. With the widespread application of newly launched ADCs, combining the FAERS data with other data sources is crucial for monitoring the ocular toxicity of ADCs. In addition, novel ocular toxicity signals not documented in product labeling were detected. Further research will be necessary to validate our findings in the future.

Expert Opin Drug Saf 2024:1-9. [PMID: 39141579 DOI: 10.1080/14740338.2024.2393267] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/04/2024] [Revised: 07/14/2024] [Accepted: 07/29/2024] [Indexed: 08/16/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Teriparatide is widely used for osteoporosis treatment in various patients, but its safety profile is not fully documented. This study analyzes the FDA pharmacovigilance database to assess teriparatide's safety. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Data from the first quarter (Q1) of 2004 to the third quarter (Q3) of 2023 were extracted and analyzed for disproportionality between teriparatide and adverse effects (AE). RESULTS A total of 66,991 AE reports identified teriparatide as the principal suspect medication, aggregating to 222,116 individual AEs. Notably, healthcare professionals authored 16.1% of these reports (n = 10,809), whereas consumers accounted for the majority with 81.3% (n = 54,474). Teriparatide revealed a marked association with an increased propensity for musculoskeletal and connective tissue disorders (ROR,3.95; 95% CI, 3.91-3.99) at the System Organ Class (SOC) level. Concurrently, 199 preferred terms (PTs) displayed significant disproportionality across all four employed algorithms. CONCLUSIONS Our study confirms several well-known adverse drug reactions and identifies potential safety issues associated with teriparatide treatment. This contributes to a deeper understanding of the complex relationship between adverse reactions and teriparatide. These findings emphasize the importance of continuous monitoring and ongoing surveillance to promptly identify and effectively manage adverse reactions, thereby enhancing overall patient safety and well-being.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Information on the incidence and risk factors for diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) and hyperglycemic hyperosmolar nonketotic syndrome (HHNS) caused by tacrolimus has rarely been reported. This study aims to assess the spectrum of DKA/HHNS associated with tacrolimus. METHODS We conducted an observational, retrospective pharmacovigilance study using the Food and Drug Administration adverse event reporting system (FAERS) database. We employed the information component (IC) and reporting odds ratio (ROR) to evaluate the association between tacrolimus and DKA/HHNS. RESULTS A total of 232 events were identified as tacrolimus-related DKA/HHNS, 186 cases from DKA and 54 cases from HHNS. The frequency of tacrolimus-associated DKA and HHNS was found to be significantly higher compared to all other drugs. Specifically, HHNS was significantly associated with tacrolimus based on its ROR and IC. There were no significant differences in death and non-death cases in gender, age group, year of reporting and region of reporting. CONCLUSION Our study showed that DKA and HHNS were associated with tacrolimus use. Healthcare professionals should be aware of the possibility of DKA/HHNS following tacrolimus administration, as they were associated with an increased risk of mortality in transplant recipients.

Efficient analysis of adverse drug events and toxicological mechanisms of newly marketed drugs by integrating pharmacovigilance and network toxicology: selumetinib as an example. Front Pharmacol 2024; 15:1432759. [PMID: 39193326 PMCID: PMC11347787 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2024.1432759] [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: 05/14/2024] [Accepted: 07/31/2024] [Indexed: 08/29/2024] Open
Abstract
Objective To integrate pharmacovigilance and network toxicology methods to explore the potential adverse drug events (ADEs) and toxic mechanisms of selumetinib, and to provide a reference for quickly understanding the safety and toxicological mechanisms of newly marketed drugs. Methods Taking selumetinib as an example, this study integrated pharmacovigilance methods based on real-world data and network toxicology methods to analyze its ADE and its potential toxicological mechanism. First, the ADE reports of selumetinib were extracted from the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) adverse event reporting system (FAERS), and the ADE signals were detected by reporting odds ratio (ROR) and UK medicines and healthcare products regulatory agency (MHRA) methods. The ADE signals were classified and described according to the preferred terms (PTs) and system organ class (SOC) derived from the Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities (MedDRA). The network toxicology method was used to analyze the toxicological mechanism of the interested SOCs. The specific steps included predicting the potential targets of selumetinib using TOXRIC, STITCH, ChEMBL, CTD, SwissTargetPreditcion, and Super-PRED databases, collecting the targets of SOC using GeneCards database, conducting protein-protein interaction (PPI) analysis through STRING database, conducting gene ontology (GO) and Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes (KEGG) analysis through DAVID database, and testing the molecular affinity using AutoDock software. Results A total of 1388 ADE reports related to selumetinib were extracted, and 53 positive signals were detected by ROR and MHRA methods, of which 20 signals were not mentioned in the package insert, including ingrowing nail, hyperphosphatemia, cardiac valve disease, hematuria, neutropenia, etc. Analysis of the toxicological mechanism of six SOCs involved in positive ADE signals revealed that the key targets included EGFR, STAT3, AKT1, IL6, BCL2, etc., and the key pathways included PI3K/Akt pathway, apoptosis, ErbB signaling pathway, and EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor resistance, etc. Molecular docking assays showed spontaneous binding of selumetinib to key targets in these pathways. Conclusion The pharmacovigilance analysis identified some new potential ADEs of selumetinib, and the network toxicology analysis showed that the toxic effects of selumetinib may be related to PI3K/Akt pathway, apoptosis, ErbB signaling pathway, EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor resistance and other pathways.

Comparative analysis of adverse events associated with CDK4/6 inhibitors based on FDA's adverse event reporting system: a case control pharmacovigilance study. BMC Pharmacol Toxicol 2024; 25:47. [PMID: 39123221 PMCID: PMC11312934 DOI: 10.1186/s40360-024-00770-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/17/2023] [Accepted: 07/22/2024] [Indexed: 08/12/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 (CDK4/6) inhibitors marked a milestone in the breast cancer treatment. Due to the potential impact of adverse effects on treatment decisions and patient outcomes, careful consideration of the varying toxicities of CDK4/6 inhibitors is crucial, as three inhibitors-palbociclib, abemaciclib, and ribociclib-have been approved with differences in adverse event profiles. However, limitations in clinical trials call for urgent real-world safety studies to evaluate and compare the risk of adverse events (AEs) among these CDK4/6 inhibitors. Therefore, this study aimed to analyze AEs of CDK4/6 inhibitors and provide insights for clinical drug selection, using real world database. METHODS The AEs of CDK4/6 inhibitors in the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (2015-2022) were analyzed. Four disproportionality methods were used to detect safety signals: reporting odds ratio (ROR), proportional reporting ratio, Bayesian Confidence Neural Network Propagation, and Multi-Item Gamma Poisson Shrinker. Venn analysis was used to compare and select common and specific AEs. RESULTS This study included 73,042 patients treated with palbociclib, 25,142 with ribociclib, and 7563 with abemaciclib. All three inhibitors had 27 common AEs. Palbociclib exhibited the highest ROR for hematologic toxicities, while ribociclib showed the highest ROR for macrocytosis, nail disorders, and hepatic lesions. Abemaciclib displayed the highest ROR for mucosal toxicity. Common signals for both palbociclib and ribociclib included hematologic toxicities, decreased immune responsiveness, and aphthous ulcers. Myelosuppression, oral pain, and pseudocirrhosis were common signals for palbociclib and abemaciclib. Anemia, hepatotoxicity, and pneumonitis were observed as common signals for ribociclib and abemaciclib. Furthermore, specific AEs associated with palbociclib included fatigue, alopecia, and stomatitis. For ribociclib, specific AEs included electrocardiogram QT prolongation, thrombocytopenia, and decreased hemoglobin. Abemaciclib was specifically linked to diarrhea, vomiting, and interstitial lung disease. CONCLUSION Our analysis revealed that palbociclib showed a higher risk of hematologic toxicity. Ribociclib showed higher risks of hepatotoxicity, nephrotoxicity, and QT prolongation. Abemaciclib showed higher risks of hepatotoxicity, gastrointestinal effects, interstitial lung disease, and thrombosis. These findings provide valuable insights for CDK4/6 inhibitor selection.

Front Pharmacol 2024; 15:1420126. [PMID: 39161895 PMCID: PMC11330839 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2024.1420126] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/19/2024] [Accepted: 07/16/2024] [Indexed: 08/21/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Associated with enzyme deficiencies causing glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) accumulation, mucopolysaccharidosis type VI (MPS VI) is lysosomal storage disorder. In the treatment of MPS VI, galsulfase (Naglazyme) is commonly used as an enzyme replacement therapy (ERT). There remains a need for comprehensive real-world data on its safety and associated adverse events (AEs). Objective An analysis of the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) database will be conducted to identify potential risks and adverse reactions associated with galsulfase in real-life settings. Methods The FAERS database was used to extract data from Q2 2005 to Q4 2023. A total of 20,281,876 reports were analyzed after duplicate elimination, with 3,195 AE reports related to galsulfase identified. The association between galsulfase and AEs was investigated by utilizing four algorithms: reporting odds ratio (ROR), proportional reporting ratio (PRR), Bayesian confidence propagation neural network (BCPNN), and multi-item gamma Poisson shrinker (MGPS). The analysis focused on the timing of onset, signs of AEs, and clinical significance. Results Twenty seven organ systems were involved, and significant system organ classes (SOCs) included respiratory, thoracic and mediastinal disorders, and infections and infestations. At the PT level, 72 PTs corresponding to 15 SOCs were identified, with some AEs not previously mentioned in the product label. AEs associated with galsulfase had a median onset time of 1,471 days, with over half of the cases occurred within the first 5 years of treatment initiation. Conclusion This investigation delivers an exhaustive and indicative assessment of galsulfase's safety profile, grounded in authentic, real-world evidence. The findings emphasis the importance of continuous safety surveillance and the emergence of new AEs. The identification of previously unreported urologic adverse events, such as glomerulonephritis membranous and nephritic syndrome, warrants further investigation. The study emphasizes the need for enhanced pharmacovigilance to ensure patient safety and the effectiveness of galsulfase treatment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore safety differences and perform a gender-based analysis of adverse events related to gemcitabine and Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) vaccine using the U.S. FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) database. METHODS Using the Reporting Odds Ratio (ROR) and Proportional Reporting Ratio (PRR) methods, adverse events associated with gemcitabine and BCG were mined from FAERS database reports spanning from Q1 2004 to Q3 2023. RESULTS The study extracted 37,855 reports with gemcitabine and 5,455 reports with BCG as the primary suspected drugs. Adverse events were more prevalent in males (male-to-female ratio: gemcitabine 1.10, BCG 4.25). Differences in high-frequency adverse events among the top 20 signals were detected for both drugs. Both drugs affected similar organ systems, including potential pulmonary, ocular, and renal toxicity, with gemcitabine showing a broader range of adverse events. Gender analysis revealed fewer adverse reactions to gemcitabine in females, while males had fewer adverse reactions to BCG. CONCLUSION Differences in high-frequency adverse events between gemcitabine and BCG, including some not listed on drug labels, were observed. Both drugs affect similar organ systems, with gemcitabine showing a broader range of adverse events. Gender differences in adverse events were notable.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The exact safety profile of Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) is unclear so far. AIM The aim of the current study is to analyse the safety profile of ICIs in cancer patients. METHODOLOGY The updated comprehensive disproportionality analysis of post-marketing data using the FAERS database and meta-analysis of randomized clinical trials (RCTs) was conducted. Disproportionality measures were calculated in terms of PRR associated with chi-square value and ROR with 95% confidence intervals whereas overall estimate measures with 95% CIs, publication bias and heterogeneity were calculated using RevMan 5.4. The GRADE analysis was also done to check the quality of evidence for each outcome. RESULTS Various novel signals such as cholangitis, encephalitis, anuria, myelosuppression, and cachexia related to different system organ class were identified with ICIs. The sensitivity analysis results have indicated the influence of concomitant drugs on the identified signals. The meta-analysis results have shown a good safety profile of atezolizumab in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and melanoma, pembrolizumab in gastro-oesophageal cancer, urothelial cancer and head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC), nivolumab in HNSCC as compared to the non-ICI group. CONCLUSION The safety of ICIs is dependent on their types as well as on the types of cancer.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This research investigates adverse drug events (ADEs) linked to trametinib, utilizing data from the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) database, covering the period from Q2 2013 to Q4 2023. METHODS We gathered data on ADEs associated with trametinib from the second quarter of 2013 to the fourth quarter of 2023. After standardizing the data, we applied various analytical methods to quantify signals, including the reporting odds ratio (ROR), proportional reporting ratio (PRR), Bayesian Confidence Propagation for Neural Networks (BCPNN), and multi-item gamma Poisson shrinker (MGPS). RESULTS In our examination of 2200 ADE reports with trametinib cited as the primary suspect, we identified 191 adverse reaction terms across 23 system organ classifications. The most frequently reported classifications were general disorders and administration site conditions, with 1254 cases (ROR 0.83, PRR 0.85, IC -0.23, EBGM 0.85), followed by neoplasms (benign, malignant, and unspecified, including cysts and polyps) with 802 cases (ROR 3.59, PRR 3.32, IC 1.73, EBGM 3.32), and investigations with 794 cases (ROR 1.74, PRR 1.66, IC 0.73, EBGM 1.66). Notably, this study also uncovered previously unlabeled adverse reactions such as cheilitis, lobular panniculitis, ulcerative keratitis, and stridor. CONCLUSION While trametinib provides therapeutic advantages, it is associated with several potential adverse reactions. It is crucial for healthcare providers to closely monitor patients for symptoms such as cheilitis, lobular panniculitis, ulcerative keratitis, stridor, and other adverse events (AEs) during treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Endometriosis and adenomyosis are two common diseases that impair women's health, and dienogest is one of the pharmacologic treatments which is the first-line therapeutic option for patients with pelvic pain and individuals who have no desire for immediate pregnancy. The goal of this study was to summarize the current evidence of adverse events associated with dienogest as well as the prevalence of these adverse events during treatment with dienogest. METHODS Several databases (PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Central and Clinicaltrials.gov, etc.) and the US FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) Public Dashboard were searched on May 31, 2023, using the topic words alongside free words of dienogest and "adverse reaction". Studies were incorporated into this research if they reported or assessed safety issues or adverse reactions of dienogest during the period of endometriosis treatment or adenomyosis therapy. The extracted information comprised trial design, dienogest and control group demographics, as well as reported side effects. RESULTS This systematic review comprehended 39 publications in total. The mean age of patients in the included studies was 34.43 years. The follow-up duration varied from 3 to 60 months. Most adverse reactions were common and not serious, and the most common adverse reactions during dienogest medication were abnormal uterine bleeding (55%, 95% CI 37-73%), amenorrhea (17%, 95% CI 2-42%) and swelling (13%, 95% CI 3-28%). Uncommon adverse reactions included dysmenorrhea (0.2%, n = 1), dyspepsia (0.4%, n = 1), and (lower) abdominal pain (1%, 95% CI 0-3%), urticaria (1%, 95% CI 0-3%) and peritonitis (1%, n = 1). Serious adverse reactions including decreased lumbar spine Bone Mineral Density (BMD), depression, peritonitis and so on have been reported. Heterogeneity assessment revealed that patient number and study design are influencing factors to adverse reaction prevalence. Moreover, abdominal pain, diarrhea, nausea and vomiting, back pain and anemia are side effects reported both in the FAERS database and in the systematic review. CONCLUSIONS Dienogest's most frequent side effects were not severe. Dienogest is generally safe for treating endometriosis and adenomyosis. Nevertheless, people should be aware of serious adverse reactions, such as decreased lumbar spine BMD and hemorrhagic shock.

Rong L, Xie M, Jiang M, Qiu H, Kong L. A post-marketing pharmacovigilance study of avapritinib: Adverse event data mining and analysis based on the United States Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System database. Br J Clin Pharmacol 2024; 90:1816-1826. [PMID: 36702463 DOI: 10.1111/bcp.15673] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/04/2022] [Revised: 01/09/2023] [Accepted: 01/16/2023] [Indexed: 01/28/2023] Open
Abstract
AIMS Avapritinib was first approved by the FDA in January 2020 and represents the first precision-targeted drug for gastrointestinal stromal tumours. However, there is a lack of large-scale data relating to adverse events (AEs) related to its use. We aimed to explore the avapritinib-related AEs in real-world practice based on the post-marketing data. METHODS We extracted all avapritinib-related reports submitted to the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) by June 2022. Based on disproportionality analysis and Bayesian analysis, we then calculated the reporting odds ratio (ROR), proportional reporting ratio (PRR), information component (IC) and empirical Bayes geometric mean (EBGM) to evaluate whether there is a significant association between avapritinib and AEs. Gender, age and time to onset were comparable between haemorrhage/non-haemorrhage, serious/non-serious, death/non-death AEs, respectively. RESULTS In total, 3120 cases related to avapritinib were documented in the FAERS database, and 44% were reported within 30 days of commencing avapritinib. A total of 331 different AE signals were detected, and no significant differences between males and females was identified. Although the number of AEs associated with an abnormal skin texture and executive dysfunction was small, the signal intensity is high, suggesting that these events are strongly correlated with avapritinib. Subgroup analysis showed that elderly male patients were more likely to suffer from serious AEs compared to females (P < .01), but there was no significant difference between the haemorrhage group and the non-haemorrhage group. Analysis of fatalities due to avapritinib-related AEs indicated that sex, age and time-to-onset were all significantly related to death (P < .05). CONCLUSION Our study provides a more precise description of the incidence and characteristics of AEs after using avapritinib, clinicians should be particularly careful when prescribing avapritinib to elderly male patients, especially within the 30 days.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Fostamatinib, an FDA-approved oral small-molecule spleen tyrosine kinase (SYK) inhibitor, is used to treat thrombocytopenia in adults with chronic immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) who have not responded to previous treatments. However, comprehensive safety data is lacking. This study uses the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) database to explore real-world adverse events (AEs) related to fostamatinib, aiming to inform its clinical use. METHODS The FAERS database was retrospectively queried to extract reports associated with fostamatinib from 2019 to 2023. To identify and evaluate potential AEs in patients receiving fostamatinib, various disproportionality analyses such as the reporting odds ratio (ROR), the proportional reporting ratio (PRR), the Bayesian confidence propagation neural network (BCPNN), and the multi-item gamma Poisson shrinker (MGPS) were employed. RESULTS A total of 23 AE signals were included in our analysis. Among them, hypertension, blood pressure increase, blood pressure abnormality, hepatic enzyme increase, and diarrhea were consistent with the common AEs described for fostamatinib in clinical trials. In addition, unexpected serious AEs were detected including cerebral thrombosis and necrotizing soft tissue infection. The median time to onset of fostamatinib-related AEs was 86 days. CONCLUSION Our investigation revealed several possibly emergent safety concerns associated with fostamatinib in real-world clinical practice, which might provide essential vigilance evidence for clinicians and pharmacists to manage the safety issues of fostamatinib.

Abstract
Concerns persist about venetoclax's long-term safety in larger populations, with limited evidence of infrequent and delayed adverse events (AEs). The study integrated safety data on venetoclax in leukemia patients from randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and FDA adverse event monitoring system (FAERS). We systematically reviewed RCTs reporting safety outcomes of venetoclax in adult leukemia patients of any gender, either monotherapy or in combination, applying advanced search on databases like PubMed, EMBASE, and ClinicalTrial.gov. The quality assessment was done using the Cochrane Risk of Bias Tool. We utilized a random effect meta-analysis to calculate risk ratio (RR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI). The Open Vigil 2.1 MedDRAv24 was used to search the FAERS database, with data available until September 2023. The disproportionality was calculated using the proportional reporting ratio and the reporting odds ratio. The study protocol for meta-analysis was registered with PROSPERO; CRD42022378006. For the safety meta-analysis, seven RCTs with available AEs were examined. A total of 942 AEs were found associated with the venetoclax group; 79% of them were in grade three or above. Venetoclax significantly increased the risk of neutropenia grade three or above (RR = 1.34, 95% CI: 1.10-1.64, p: 0.0033) compared with the control group. In FAERS, 26,436 patients were reported with AEs associated with venetoclax. Significant signal scores were observed in hematological, cardiac, vascular, and gastrointestinal disorders. 11 out of 30 generated signals, failed to meet the signal criteria upon refinement. The current study updated and improved the safety profile of venetoclax in the post-marketing period, assisting in risk evaluation and mitigation for the best possible patient health care.

Abstract
The third-generation aromatase inhibitors (AIs), represented by letrozole, anastrozole, and exemestane, have been used as a standard first-line adjuvant therapy for postmenopausal breast cancer patients with positive hormone receptor. However, their safety in the real world has not been systematically analyzed. We used the U.S. Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) to investigate adverse event (AE) profiles of the three AIs, covering the period from Q1 2004 to Q3 2023. The time-to-event onset profiles and cumulative incidence were analyzed by Weibull shape parameter test and Kaplan-Meier method, respectively. The disproportionality analysis was utilized to assess drug toxicity risk. Based on the FAERS database, 18,035, 8242, and 7011 reports listing letrozole, anastrozole, and exemestane as primary suspected drugs were extracted, respectively. AEs associated with anastrozole displayed the latest onset (p < 0.0001); meanwhile, WSP test showed that all three AIs had early failure-type profiles. At the preferred term level, we acquired 95, 59, and 42 significant signals associated with letrozole, anastrozole, and exemestane, which involved 18, 13, and 15 system organ classes, respectively. The three AIs all reported that their strongest AE signal was trigger finger. Neutropenia was the most frequent AE for letrozole, while the highest occurrences of anastrozole and exemestane were arthralgia. We also found that interstitial lung disease, a rare but serious AE, showed strong signal intensity in all three AIs. Additionally, letrozole was also associated with lots of other rare but serious AEs in hematologic, respiratory, and hepatic systems, which were not recorded in the instructions. Our analysis of safety warning signals of the third-generation AIs from the FAERS database provided reference for clinical safe and rational drug use.

Abstract
Objective Based on the U.S. Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) database, we analyzed the signals of potential adverse events (AEs) of orlistat in the real world to provide a reference for its safe clinical use. Methods The FAERS database and OpenVigil 2.1 were used to obtain data on adverse events of orlistat from the first quarter of 2004 to the first quarter of 2023, and to analyze the population in which the adverse events occurred. And the signals of their potential adverse events were mined using reporting odds ratio (ROR), proportional reporting ratio (PRR), Bayesian confidence propagation neural network (BCPNN) and empirical Bayesian geometric mean (EBGM). Result A total of 21,079 reports of adverse events with orlistat as the primary suspected drug were collected in this study. Using four disproportionate analyses, we screened 117 preferred terms (PTs) involving 18 system organ classes (SOCs). We found that the most common adverse events at SOC level for orlistat remained "gastrointestinal disorders", while "metabolism and nutrition disorders", "renal and urinary disorders", "musculoskeletal and connective tissue disorders" and "hepatobiliary disorders" also ranked high in the number of case reports. In addition, at the PT level, we identified several new signals of adverse events not mentioned in the specification, including "lipiduria", "anal haemorrhage", "rectal haemorrhage", "haematochezia", "sigmoiditis", "diverticulitis" and "muscle spasms". Conclusion Most of the adverse events found in this study are consistent with the results described in the drug label. At the same time, we also found some new adverse events, which require more prospective studies to verify and elucidate their relationship with orlistat.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To describe cytokine release syndrome (CRS) associated with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) reported in the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS). METHODS We obtained ICIs adverse event (AE) reports from January 2011 to September 2023 from the FAERS database. The preferred term (PT) 'cytokine release syndrome' from the Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities (MedDRA) 26.1 was used to identify cases with ICIs-related CRS. The reporting odds ratio (ROR) of the disproportionality method was performed to quantify the association between CRS and ICIs treatment strategy. RESULTS Three hundred and ninety-five cases were gathered. 42.03% of the patients were aged 18 to 65. Male patients outnumbered female patients (53.67% vs. 34.94%). The prevalent potential cancer types were lung cancer (33.42%) and skin cancer (20.51%). Japanese were responsible for the majority of ICIs-related CRS cases (176 cases). The combination of nivolumab and ipilimumab resulted in the most CRS cases (138 cases), and the ICIs combination therapy had the highest ROR signal value (ROR = 11.95 [10.14-14.06]). ICIs-related CRS had a median time to onset of 14 days (interquartile range [IQR] 7-43.25). CONCLUSIONS ICIs-related CRS is an increasingly important immune-related AE. Our study provided helpful information to help medical professionals learn more about ICIs-related CRS.

Abstract
Background Through an analysis of the Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS), we explored the signal strength of adverse reactions (ADRs) related to myopathy caused by the combination of colchicine and statins and gained insight into the characteristics of these myopathy related ADRs. Methods We extracted data from the FAERS database about ADRs in individuals with myopathy resulting from the combination of colchicine and statins. The analysis was conducted for the period spanning from January 2004 to December 2023 using the reported odds ratio (ROR) and information component (IC) methods to assess muscle-related ADR signals. Results A total of 18,386 reports of statin myopathy-associated adverse reactions, 348 colchicine myopathy-associated adverse reactions, and 461 muscle-associated adverse reactions due to the combination of the two were collected; the strongest signals of statin myotoxicity events were for necrotizing myositis (ROR 50.47, 95% CL 41.74-61.01; IC 3.70 95% CL 3.25-4.08); the strongest signal for colchicine myotoxicity events was toxic myopathy (ROR 32.50, 95% CL 19.74-53.51; IC 4.97 95% CL 1.89-5.10), and the strongest signal for statins combined with colchicine was toxic myopathy (ROR 159.85, 95% CL 111.60-228.98; IC 7.22 95% CL 3.59-5.9); muscle-related adverse reactions signals were meaningful when the two drugs were combined in the order of colchicine combined with fluvastatin (ROR 187.38, 95% CL 96.68-363.17; IC 6.99 95% CL 1.65-5.68); colchicine combined with simvastatin in 135 cases (ROR 30.08. 95% CL 25.25-35.85; IC 4.80 95% CL 3.96-5.12); and colchicine combined with rosuvastatin (ROR 25.73, 95% CL 20.16-32.83; IC 4.59 95% CL 3.38-4.98) versus colchicine combined with atorvastatin (ROR 25.73, 95% CL 22.33-29.66; IC 4.59 95% CL 3.97-4.91) with almost identical signal intensity, followed by colchicine combined with pravastatin (ROR 13.67, 95% CL 9.17-20.37; IC 3.73 95% CL 1.87-4.47), whereas no signals were generated for lovastatin or pitavastatin. Conclusion Similar ADRs can occur when colchicine and statins are used individually or in combination; however, the strength of these reactions may differ. To minimize the risk of drug interactions, statins with less potential interactions, such as lovastatin, pitavastatin, and pravastatin, should be chosen, and myopathy-related indices and symptoms should be closely monitored during use.

Abstract
Background Sunitinib is approved for the treatment of metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC), imatinib-resistant gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST), and advanced pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PNET). This study aims to investigate the safety profiles of sunitinib through data mining of the US Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS). Methods The individual case safety reports (ICSRs) on sunitinib from 2006 Q1 to 2024 Q1 were collected from the ASCII data packages in the Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS). After standardizing the data, a variety of disproportionality analyses, including the reporting odds ratio (ROR), the proportional reporting ratio (PRR), the bayesian confidence propagation neural network (BCPNN), and the multi-item gamma Poisson shrinker (MGPS) were employed to identify the potential safety signals of sunitinib-associated AEs. Results A total of 35,923 ICSRs of sunitinib as the "primary suspected" drug were identified within the reporting period. The search detected 276 disproportionate preferred terms (PTs). The most common AEs, including diarrhea, asthenia, decreased appetite, hypertension, and dysgeusia, were consistent with the drug label and clinical trials. Unexpected significant AEs, such as uveal melanocytic proliferation, salivary gland fistula, yellow skin, eyelash discoloration, scrotal inflammation, were detected. The median onset time of sunitinib-related AEs was 57 days (interquartile range [IQR]16-170 days), with most of the ICSRs developing within the first month (n = 4,582, 39.73%) after sunitinib therapy as initiated. Conclusion The results of our study were consistent with routine clinical observations, and some unexpected AEs signals were also identified for sunitinib, providing valuable evidence for the safe use of sunitinib in the real-world and contributing to the clinical monitoring and risk identification of sunitinib.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The safety of neonatal sildenafil use remains uncertain. This study aimed to investigate adverse events (AEs) associated with sildenafil use in neonates. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS We collected data on AEs associated with sildenafil use in neonates from the US Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System database, spanning from its inception of the database in 2004 to 2023. Disproportionality measures were employed to analyze the correlation between AEs and sildenafil. RESULTS Sildenafil was identified as the primary suspect drug in 75 AE reports, involving 214 AEs. Three system organ classes, namely, eye disorders, hepatobiliary disorders, and vascular disorders were associated with sildenafil use. Six preferred terms, namely, flushing, retinopathy of prematurity, hyperbilirubinemia, pulmonary hemorrhage, hypotension, and diarrhea were associated with sildenafil use. Notably, hyperbilirubinemia and pulmonary hemorrhage were previously unreported AEs associated with sildenafil use. CONCLUSION The results highlight the ongoing uncertainty surrounding the safety of neonatal sildenafil use and provide vital support for risk monitoring and identification in neonates receiving sildenafil. Additionally, the study underscores the need for continuous safety surveillance in neonates treated with sildenafil and suggests further exploration of the precise causal relationships between AEs and sildenafil.

Evaluation of anticancer therapy-related dermatologic adverse events: Insights from Food and Drug Administration's Adverse Event Reporting System dataset. J Am Acad Dermatol 2024:S0190-9622(24)02532-5. [PMID: 39038557 DOI: 10.1016/j.jaad.2024.07.1456] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/03/2024] [Revised: 06/10/2024] [Accepted: 07/01/2024] [Indexed: 07/24/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND New anticancer therapies have improved patient outcomes but associated dermatologic adverse events (AEs) may cause morbidity and treatment discontinuation. A comprehensive estimation of associations between cancer drugs and skin AEs is lacking. METHODS This study utilized the Food and Drug Administartion (FDA)'s Adverse Event Reporting System database (January 2013-September 2022), with 3,399,830 reports involving 3084 drugs and 16,348 AEs. A nearest neighbor matching model was employed to select 10 controls for each case report, utilizing the cosine similarity of demographic and AE severity factors to minimize false positives/negatives. RESULTS There were 10,698 unique anticancer drugs (n = 212) to skin AE (n = 873) pairs, of which 676 had significant reporting odds ratios (ROR) > 1, comprising 113 drugs and 144 AEs. The minimum ROR was 1.25, and 50% of associations displayed a ROR >10. The most common were rash (51 agents) and dry skin (28 drugs). Methotrexate induced the most distinct AEs (34), then mechlorethamine (33), and vemurafenib (24). Targeted therapies accounted for 49% of pairs, cytotoxic chemotherapies for 35.9%, and immunotherapies for 11%. CONCLUSIONS A total of 113 anticancer drugs were identified as significantly associated with skin AEs, most frequently rash and dry skin. Data are likely under-reported but enable quick postmarketing identification of skin toxicity signals.

Adverse event profile of memantine and donepezil combination therapy: a real-world pharmacovigilance analysis based on FDA adverse event reporting system (FAERS) data from 2004 to 2023. Front Pharmacol 2024; 15:1439115. [PMID: 39101151 PMCID: PMC11294921 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2024.1439115] [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: 05/27/2024] [Accepted: 06/24/2024] [Indexed: 08/06/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Donepezil in combination with memantine is a widely used clinical therapy for moderate to severe dementia. However, real-world population data on the long-term safety of donepezil in combination with memantine are incomplete and variable. Therefore, the aim of this study was to analyze the adverse events (AEs) of donepezil in combination with memantine according to US Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) data to provide evidence for the safety monitoring of this therapy. Methods We retrospectively analyzed reports of AEs associated with the combination of donepezil and memantine from 2004 to 2023 extracted from the FAERS database. Whether there was a significant association between donepezil and memantine combination therapy and AEs was assessed using four disproportionality analysis methods, namely, the reporting odds ratio, proportional reporting ratio, Bayesian confidence propagation neural network, and multi-item gamma Poisson shrinker methods. To further investigate potential safety issues, we also analyzed differences and similarities in the time of onset and incidence of AEs stratified by sex and differences and similarities in the incidence of AEs stratified by age. Results Of the 2,400 adverse drug reaction (ADR) reports in which the combination of donepezil and memantine was the primary suspected drug, most of the affected patients were female (54.96%) and older than 65 years of age (79.08%). We identified 22 different system organ classes covering 100 AEs, including some common AEs such as dizziness and electrocardiogram PR prolongation; fall, pleurothotonus and myoclonus were AEs that were not listed on the drug label. Moreover, we obtained 88 reports of AEs in men and 100 reports of AEs in women; somnolence was a common AE in both men and women and was more common in women, whereas pleurothotonus was a more common AE in men. In addition, we analyzed 12 AEs in patients younger than 18 years, 16 in patients between 18 and 65 years, and 113 in patients older than 65 years. The three age groups had distinctive AEs, but lethargy was the common AE among all age groups. Finally, the median time to AE onset was 19 days in all cases. In both men and women, most AEs occurred within a month of starting donepezil plus memantine, but some continued after a year of treatment. Conclusion Our study identified potential and new AEs of donepezil in combination with memantine; some of these AEs were the same as in the specification, and some of the AE signals were not shown in the specification. In addition, there were sex and age differences in some of the AEs. Therefore, our findings may provide valuable insights for further studies on the safety of donepezil and memantine combination therapy, which are expected to contribute to the safe use of this therapy in clinical practice.

Abstract
Objective The purpose of this study is to explore and analyze the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) database to identify drug adverse reaction signals associated with angioedema. The findings aim to provide valuable insights for clinical drug safety considerations. Methods The Open Vigil 2.1 data platform was utilized to collect adverse event reports related to angioedema from the first quarter of 2004 to the fourth quarter of 2023. The reporting odds ratio (ROR) and proportional reporting ratio (PRR) were employed as disproportionality measures to detect adverse reaction signals Sof drugs associated with angioedema. Results A total of 38,921 reports were retrieved, with the majority being reported by healthcare professionals. The analysis included predominantly adult patients (≥18 years of age), with slightly higher representation of females compared to males. Among the top 30 drugs associated with the occurrence of angioedema, 24 drugs showed positive signals in the risk analysis. Based on the individual drug reporting odds ratio (95% confidence interval) as a measure of risk signal strength, the top five drugs are as follows: lisinopril [ROR (95% CI): 46.43 (42.59-50.62)], enalapril [ROR (95% CI): 43.51 (39.88-47.46)], perindopril [ROR (95% CI): 31.17 (27.5-35.32)], alteplase [ROR (95% CI): 29.3 (26.95-31.85)], ramipril [ROR (95% CI): 20.93 (19.66-22.28)]. After categorizing the drugs, the strongest positive signal was observed in the antithrombotic agents [ROR (95% CI): 22.53 (21.16-23.99)], following that, cardiovascular drugs [ROR (95% CI): 9.17 (8.87-9.48)], antibiotics [ROR (95% CI): 6.42 (5.91-6.96)], immunosuppressors [ROR (95% CI): 5.95 (5.55-6.39)], anti-inflammatory analgesics [ROR (95% CI): 4.65 (4.45-4.86)], antiallergic drugs [ROR (95% CI): 4.47 (3.99-5)], antiasthmatics [ROR (95% CI): 2.49 (2.14-2.89)], blood sugar control drugs [ROR (95% CI): 1.65 (1.38-1.97)], and digestive system drugs [ROR (95% CI): 1.59 (1.45-1.74)] exhibited progressively decreasing ROR values. Conclusion Many medications are associated with a high risk of angioedema. These medications play a crucial and potentially preventable role in controlling the occurrence of angioedema. It is essential to consider the risk level of drug-induced angioedema in clinical practice to optimize medication therapy.

[PMID: 39050747 PMCID: PMC11266138 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2024.1391003] [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: 02/26/2024] [Accepted: 06/17/2024] [Indexed: 07/27/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Oseltamivir and baloxavir marboxil are the two primary oral drugs approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for treating influenza. Limited real-world evidence exists on their adverse events in children. The purpose of this study was to explore the adverse event (AE) profiles of oseltamivir and baloxavir marboxil in children based on the U.S. Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) database. Methods FAERS reports were collected and analyzed from the first quarter of 2019 to the third quarter of 2023. Disproportionality analyses, including the reporting odds ratio (ROR), the proportional reporting ratio (PRR), the Bayesian confidence propagation neural network (BCPNN), and the multi-item gamma Poisson shrinker (MGPS) algorithms, were employed in data mining to quantify the signals of oseltamivir and baloxavir marboxil-related AEs. Results A total of 464 reports of AEs to oseltamivir as the "primary suspect (PS)" and 429 reports of AEs to baloxavir marboxil as the "PS" were retrieved in pediatric patients. A total of 100 oseltamivir-induced AE signals were detected in 17 system organ classes (SOCs), and 11 baloxavir marboxil-induced AE signals were detected in 6 SOCs after complying with the four algorithms simultaneously. Categorized and summarized by the number of reports of involvement in each SOC, the top 3 for oseltamivir were psychiatric disorders, gastrointestinal disorders, general disorders and site-of-administration conditions, respectively. The top 3 for baloxavir marboxil were injury, poisoning and surgical complications, general disorders and site of administration conditions, and psychiatric disorders, respectively. Conclusion Our study identifies potential new AE signals for oseltamivir and provides a broader understanding of the safety of oseltamivir and baloxavir marboxil in children.

Front Pharmacol 2024; 15:1420478. [PMID: 39050749 PMCID: PMC11267582 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2024.1420478] [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: 04/20/2024] [Accepted: 06/13/2024] [Indexed: 07/27/2024] Open
Abstract
Background: Tildrakizumab, the IL-23 inhibitor, is used to treat plaque psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis. Many studies have reported adverse drug reactions (ADRs) associated with Tildrakizumab. Objective: The aim of this study was to describe ADRs associated with Tildrakizumab monotherapy by mining data from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS). Methods: The signals of Tildrakizumab-associated ADRs were quantified using disproportionality analyses such as the reporting odds ratio (ROR), the proportional reporting ratio (PRR), the Bayesian confidence propagation neural network (BCPNN), and the multiitem gamma Poisson shrinker (MGPS) algorithms. Results: A total of 10,530,937 reports of ADRs were collected from the FAERS database, of which 1,177 reports were identified with tildrakizumab as the "primary suspect (PS)". Tildrakizumab-induced ADRs occurred against 27 system organ classes (SOCs). A total of 32 significant disproportionality Preferred Terms (PTs) conformed to the algorithms. Unexpected significant ADRs such as coronavirus infection, herpes simplex, diverticulitis, atrial fibrillation and aortic valve incompetence were also possible. The median time to onset of Tildrakizumab-associated ADRs was 194 days (interquartile range [IQR] 84-329 days), with the majority occurring, within the first 1 and 3 months after initiation of Tildrakizumab. Conclusion: This study identified a potential signal for new ADRs with Tildrakizumab, which might provide important support for clinical monitoring and risk prediction.
