アブストラクト | As ibrutinib has become a standard of care in B-cell malignancies in monotherapy or in combination with other agents, definition of its safety profile appears essential. The aim of this study was to further characterize the safety profile of ibrutinib through the identification of potential safety signals in a large-scale pharmacovigilance database. All serious individual case safety reports (ICSRs) in patients aged >/=18 years involving ibrutinib suspected in the occurrence of serious adverse drug reactions or drug interacting from November 13th, 2013 to December 31st, 2020 were extracted from VigiBase, the World Health Organization global safety database. Disproportionality reporting was assessed using the information component (IC) and the proportional reporting ratio (PRR), with all other anticancer drugs used as the reference group. To mitigate the confounding of age, two subgroups were considered: patients aged<75 years and >/=75 years. A signal of disproportionate reporting (SDR) was defined if both IC and PRR were significant. A total of 16,196 ICSRs were included. The median age of patients was 72.9 years, 42.6% of ICSRs concerned patients aged >/=75 years, and 64.2% male patients. More than half (56.2%) of ICSRs resulted in hospitalization or prolonged hospitalization. Among 713 SDRs, 36 potential safety signals emerged in ibrutinib-treated patients, mainly ischemic heart diseases, pericarditis, uveitis, retinal disorders and fractures. All potential safety signals having arisen in this analysis may support patient care and monitoring of ongoing clinical trials. However, owing to the mandatory limitations of this study, our results need further confirmation using population-based studies. |
