アブストラクト | BACKGROUND/AIM: Torsade de pointes (TdP)/QT prolongation (QTP) is one of the most life-threatening adverse effects of antifungal triazoles. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the association of antifungal triazoles with TdP/QTP by age group and the profile of the time of TdP/QTP onset by analyzing the spontaneous adverse event database for Japan. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Data registered in the Japanese Adverse Drug Event Report database (JADER) from April 2004 to March 2022 were analyzed. The association between the administration of antifungal triazoles and TdP/QTP according to age was evaluated using an adjusted reporting odds ratio (aROR). In addition, the time-to-onset of TdP/QTP after antifungal triazole treatment was analyzed using the Weibull distribution according to the route of administration. RESULTS: Antifungal triazole treatment was associated with TdP/QTP (aROR=1.77, 95% confidence interval=1.52-2.07). In the subgroup analyses by age group, antifungal triazole treatments in patients </=29 years old and >/=50 (except >/=90) years old were associated with TdP/QTP. The medians (quartiles) of time-to-onset for intravenous and oral antifungal triazole treatment were 8 (6-12) and 23 (8-86) days, respectively. In addition, the shape parameter in the Weibull distribution analysis of oral triazole treatment revealed that the hazard exhibited an early failure profile. CONCLUSION: TdP/QTP is associated with antifungal triazoles even in young patients, and patients should be monitored for the development of TdP/QTP, especially early after the initiation of treatment. |
