PG - e071456 LID - 10.1136/bmjopen-2022-071456 [doi] LID - e071456 AB - OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to conduct a thorough analysis of fluid retention-associated adverse events (AEs) associated with BCR::ABL inhibitors. DESIGN: A retrospective pharmacovigilance study. SETTING: Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) database for BCR::ABL inhibitors was searched from 1 January 2004 to 30 September 2021. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Reporting OR (ROR) and 95% CI were used to detect the signals. ROR was calculated by dividing the odds of fluid retention event reporting for the target drug by the odds of fluid retention event reporting for all other drugs. The signal was considered positive if the lower limit of 95% CI of ROR was >1. The analysis was run only considering coupled fluid retention events/BCR::ABL inhibitors with at least three cases. RESULTS: A total of 97 823 reports were identified in FAERS. Imatinib had the most fluid retention signals, followed by dasatinib and nilotinib, while bosutinib and ponatinib had fewer signals. Periorbital oedema (ROR=24.931, 95% CI 22.404 to 27.743), chylothorax (ROR=161.427, 95% CI 125.835 to 207.085), nipple swelling (ROR=48.796, 95% CI 26.270 to 90.636), chylothorax (ROR=35.798, 95% CI 14.791 to 86.642) and gallbladder oedema (ROR=77.996, 95% CI 38.286 to 158.893) were the strongest signals detected for imatinib, dasatinib, nilotinib, bosutinib and ponatinib, respectively. Pleural effusion, pericardial effusion and pulmonary oedema were detected for all BCR::ABL inhibitors, with dasatinib having the highest RORs for pleural effusion (ROR=37.424, 95% CI 35.715 to 39.216), pericardial effusion (ROR=14.146, 95% CI 12.649 to 15.819) and pulmonary oedema (ROR=11.217, 95% CI 10.303 to 12.213). Patients aged >/=65 years using dasatinib, imatinib, nilotinib or bosutinib had higher RORs for pleural effusion, pericardial effusion and pulmonary oedema. Patients aged >/=65 years and females using imatinib had higher RORs for periorbital oedema, generalised oedema and face oedema. CONCLUSIONS: This pharmacovigilance study serves as a clinical reminder to physicians to be more vigilant for fluid retention-associated AEs with BCR::ABL inhibitors.
