“…We also excluded the indications for etoposide from the ADEs to avoid unclear presentation (Tang et al, 2022). The drug label of etoposide was obtained from the DailyMed (https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/ dailymed/index.cfm) (Yao et al, 2017), and Summary of Product Characteristics (SmPC) (https://www.ema.europa.eu/en/glossary/ summary-product-characteristics) (Nezvalova-Henriksen et al, 2023). Novelty/unexpectedness signal is defined as any significant ADEs detected without being outlined in the drug label (Shu et al, 2022a).…”

Introduction: Etoposide is a broad-spectrum antitumor drug that has been extensively studied in clinical trials. However, limited information is available regarding its real-world adverse reactions. Therefore, this study aimed to assess and evaluate etoposide-related adverse events in a real-world setting by using data mining method on the U.S. Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) database.Methods: Through the analysis of 16,134,686 reports in the FAERS database, a total of 9,892 reports of etoposide-related adverse drug events (ADEs) were identified. To determine the significance of these ADEs, various disproportionality analysis algorithms were applied, including the reporting odds ratio (ROR), the proportional reporting ratio (PRR), the Bayesian confidence propagation neural network (BCPNN), and the multi-item gamma Poisson shrinker (MGPS) algorithms.Results: As a result, 478 significant disproportionality preferred terms (PTs) that were identified by all four algorithms were retained. These PTs included commonly reported adverse events such as thrombocytopenia, leukopenia, anemia, stomatitis, and pneumonitis, which align with those documented in the drug’s instructions and previous clinical trials. However, our analysis also uncovered unexpected and significant ADEs, including thrombotic microangiopathy, ototoxicity, second primary malignancy, nephropathy toxic, and ovarian failure. Furthermore, we examined the time-to-onset (TTO) of these ADEs using the Weibull distribution test and found that the median TTO for etoposide-associated ADEs was 10 days (interquartile range [IQR] 2–32 days). The majority of cases occurred within the first month (73.8%) after etoposide administration. Additionally, our analysis revealed specific high-risk signals for males, such as pneumonia and cardiac infarction, while females showed signals for drug resistance and ototoxicity.Discussion: These findings provide valuable insight into the occurrence of ADEs following etoposide initiation, which can potentially support clinical monitoring and risk identification efforts.
