| アブストラクト | BACKGROUND: Ustekinumab is a fully human interleukin-12/23 (p40) inhibitor used to treat immune-mediated diseases. However, the limitations of clinical trials and the expanding target population necessitate an update on the ustekinumab-associated adverse events (AEs). We conducted signal mining for ustekinumab-related AEs using the United States Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS). RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: AE reports were collected from 2009 Q3 to 2024 Q1. Four disproportionality analysis algorithms - reporting odds ratio, medicines and healthcare products regulatory agency, Bayesian confidence propagation neural network, and multi-item gamma Poisson shrinker - were used to quantify the signals of ustekinumab. RESULTS: During this period 69,345 AE reports associated with ustekinumab were collected, and ustekinumab was identified as the primary suspect. Overall, 319 signals involving 15 system organ classes were identified, and 111 signals had a medium or strong value for IC(025). Of them, 67 were classified as important medical events. Squamous cell carcinoma, pertussis, vulval abscess, breast abscess, and fistula exhibited higher signal intensities. CONCLUSIONS: Our study identified the risk signals for ustekinumab using real-world data and provides further evidence to support its rational use. Due to the limitations of FAERS, further studies are warranted to verify these findings. |
