Safety Profile of Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors: A Disproportionality Analysis of FDA Adverse Event Reporting System.

ABSTRACT: Adverse event reports submitted to the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) were analyzed to map the safety profile of epidermal growth factor receptor-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs). We conducted a disproportionality analysis of the adverse events (AEs) of EGFR-TKIs (gefitinib, erlotinib, afatinib, osimertinib) by data mining using the FDA adverse event reporting system (AERS) database, and by calculating the reporting odds ratios (ROR) with 95% confidence intervals. The FDA AERS database contained 27,123 EGFR-TKI-associated AERs within the reporting period from January 1, 2004 to March 31, 2018. Thirty-three preferred terms (PTs) were selected for analysis, and significant RORs were most commonly observed in the skin, nail, gastrointestinal tract, hepatic, eyes, and lungs. Unexpected adverse drug reactions were found in the "intestinal obstruction" and "hypokalaemia" in gefitinib and erlotinib, "hyponatraemia" in gefitinib, erlotinib and afatinib, "alopecia"in erlotinib, "hair growth abnormal" in afatinib, but not in "nausea" and "vomiting" listed on drug labels. The results of this study are consistent with clinical observation, suggesting the usefulness of pharmacovigilance research should be corroborated with the real-world FAERS data.

Project description:Background: Neuromuscular blocking agents (NMBAs) are primarily used during surgical procedures to facilitate endotracheal intubation and optimize surgical conditions. This study aimed to explore the adverse event signals of NMBAs, providing reference for clinical safety. Methods: This study collected reports of atracurium, cisatracurium, rocuronium, and vecuronium as primary suspect drugs in The US Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) from the first quarter of 2004 to the third quarter of 2023. The adverse events (AEs) reported in the study were retrieved based on the Preferred Terms (PTs) of the Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities. In addition, we conducted disproportionality analysis on relevant reports using the reporting odds ratio (ROR) method and Bayesian confidence propagation neural network (BCPNN) method. A positive signal was generated when both algorithms show an association between the target drug and the AE. Results: A total of 11,518 NMBA-related AEs were reported in the FAERS database. The most AEs of rocuronium were collected. NMBA-related AEs involved 27 different system organs (SOCs), all of the four NMBAs had positive signals in "cardiac disorders," "immune system disorders," "respiratory, thoracic and mediastinal disorders" and "vascular disorders." At the PTs level, a total of 523 effective AEs signals were obtained for the four NMBAs. AEs labled in the instructions such as anaphylaxis (include anaphylactic reaction and anaphylactic shock), bronchospasm, respiratory arrest and hypotension were detected positive signals among all NMBAs. In addition, we also found some new AEs, such as ventricular fibrillation for the four NMBAs, hyperglycaemia for atracurium, kounis syndrome and stress cardiomyopathy for rocuronium, hepatocellular injury for cisatracurium, hyperkalaemia for vecuronium. To further investigated the AEs associated with serious clinical outcomes, we found that cardiac arrest and anaphylaxis were the important risk factors for death due to NMBAs. Conclusion: NMBA-related AEs have a significant potential to cause clinically severe consequences. Our study provides valuable references for the safety profile of NMBAs, and considering the limitations of the FAERS database, further clinical data are needed to validate the findings of this study.

Project description:Objective: This study aimed to identify the different associations between antiarrhythmic drugs (AADs) and arrhythmias, and to determine whether pharmacokinetic drug interactions involving AADs increase the risk of AAD-related arrhythmias compared to using AADs alone. Materials and methods: The disproportionality analysis of AAD-associated cardiac arrhythmias, including AAD monotherapies and concomitant use of pharmacokinetic interacting agents involving AADs, was conducted by using reporting odds ratio (ROR) and information component (IC) as detection of potential safety signals based on FAERS data from January 2016 to June 2022. We compared the clinical features of patients reported with AAD–associated arrhythmias between fatal and non-fatal groups, and further investigated the onset time (TTO) following different AAD regimens. Results: A total of 11754 AAD–associated cardiac arrhythmias reports were identified, which was more likely to occur in the elderly (52.17%). Significant signals were detected between cardiac arrhythmia and all AAD monotherapies, with ROR ranging from 4.86 with mexiletine to 11.07 with flecainide. Regarding four specific arrhythmias in High Level Term (HLT) level, the AAD monotherapies with the highest ROR were flecainide in cardiac conduction disorders (ROR025 = 21.18), propafenone in rate and rhythm disorders (ROR025 = 10.36), dofetilide in supraventricular arrhythmias (ROR025 = 17.61), and ibutilide in ventricular arrhythmias (ROR025 = 4.91). Dofetilide/ibutilide, ibutilide, mexiletine/ibutilide and dronedarone presented no signal in the above four specific arrhythmias respectively. Compared with amiodarone monotherapy, sofosbuvir plus amiodarone detected the most significantly increased ROR in arrhythmias. Conclusion: The investigation showed the spectrum and risk of AAD–associated cardiac arrhythmias varied among different AAD therapies. The early identification and management of AAD-associated arrhythmias are of great importance in clinical practice.
