| アブストラクト | PURPOSE: Between 2012 and 2017, the FDA approved 29 therapies for a cardiovascular disease (CVD) indication. Due to the limited literature on patient safety outcomes for recently approved CVD medications, this study investigated adverse drug reports (ADRs) reported in the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS). METHODS: A disproportionality analysis of spontaneously reported ADR was conducted. Reports in FAERS from Quarter 1, 2012, through Quarter 1, 2019, were compiled, allowing a 2-year buffer following drug approval in 2017. Top 10 reported ADRs and reporting odds ratios (ROR; confidence interval (CI)), a measure of disproportionality, were analyzed and compared to drugs available prior to 2012 as appropriate. RESULTS: Of 7,952,147 ADR reports, 95,016 (1.19%) consisted of reports for newly approved CVD medications. For oral anticoagulants, apixaban had significantly lower reports for anemia and renal failure compared to dabigatran and rivaroxaban but greater reports for neurological signs/symptoms, and arrhythmias. Evaluating heart failure drugs, sacubitril/valsartan had greater reports for acute kidney injury, coughing, potassium imbalances, and renal impairment but notably, lower for angioedema compared to lisinopril. Assessing familial hypercholesterolemia drugs, alirocumab had greater reports for joint-related-signs/symptoms compared to other agents in this category. A newer pulmonary arterial hypertension treatment, selexipag, had greater reports of reporting for bone/joint-related-signs/symptoms but riociguat had greater reports for hemorrhages and vascular hypotension. CONCLUSION: Pharmacovigilance studies allow an essential opportunity to evaluate the safety profile of CVD medications in clinical practice. Additional research is needed to evaluate these reported safety concerns for recently approved CVD medications. |
