| アブストラクト | BACKGROUND: Ongoing studies are evaluating the efficacy and toxicity profiles of combining epidermal growth factor receptor inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) with antiangiogenic agents in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, the complete toxicity profiles remain elusive. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: This study conducted an extensive pharmacovigilance analysis utilizing the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System database. The analysis focused on identifying and characterizing adverse events (AEs) associated with the concurrent use of EGFR-TKIs and antiangiogenic inhibitors in patients with NSCLC. RESULTS: The study identified significant occurrences of AEs linked to the combination therapy, particularly impacting general disorders, skin and subcutaneous tissue conditions, and vascular disorders. Frequently reported AEs included rash, diarrhea, fatigue, nausea, decreased appetite, and anemia. Notably, the combination of EGFR-TKIs with antiangiogenic inhibitors resulted in an increased incidence of AEs across multiple organ systems compared to EGFR-TKIs alone, with some adverse effects, such as anemia, arrhythmia, and ulcerative keratitis, persisting beyond one year in a subset of patients. CONCLUSIONS: The combination of EGFR-TKIs and antiangiogenic inhibitors in NSCLC treatment presents a distinct and substantial AE profile, often with delayed onset. This finding underscores the necessity for rigorous and ongoing monitoring protocols to mitigate potential long-term adverse effects. |
