| アブストラクト | BACKGROUND: Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors are immune-modulating medications used to treat conditions including rheumatoid arthritis, COVID-19, ulcerative colitis, atopic dermatitis, myelofibrosis, and polycythemia Vera. However, these medications have been associated with higher incidence of deep vein thrombosis. The objective of this study was to investigate potential safety signals for DVT associated with JAK inhibitors using disproportionality analysis from the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) database. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: The authors retrospectively investigated case/non-case analysis using Openvigil 2.1-MedDRA-v24 (2004Q1 to 2022Q4). The preferred term used was 'deep vein thrombosis,' and the drugs included were baricitinib, tofacitinib, and upadacitinib. Reporting odds ratio, proportional reporting ratio, and information component were used to detect signals. RESULTS: Overall 114,005 AE reports related to JAK inhibitors were identified, of which 647 reports (baricitinib - 169, tofacitinib - 425, and upadacitinib - 53) associated with DVT were obtained from FAERS. On analysis, baricitinib and tofacitinib had greater signal strength for age group of 65-100 years and all three had the highest signal strength for male gender. CONCLUSIONS: Our study identified signals for DVT with baricitinib, tofacitinib, and upadacitinib. Further research using well-designed epidemiological data is needed to validate these results. |
