Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Very little data are published on the safety of a rechallenge with a BRAF inhibitor or combination of BRAF and MEK inhibitor (BRAFi and MEKi) after an adverse event (AE). This study aimed at identifying the recurrence rate of the same AE after a BRAFi +/- MEKi rechallenge in patients with cancer and the factors associated to the recurrence.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This is an observational, cross-sectional, pharmacovigilance cohort study. AEs were extracted from safety reports from the World Health Organization database VigiBase®, to evaluate the safety of a rechallenge with a BRAF inhibitor or combination of BRAF and MEK inhibitor (BRAFi and MEKi) after an adverse event (AE) in patients with cancer.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Reports of adverse events associated with the use of BRAF +/- MEK inhibitors

Reports of adverse event (individual case safety reports) from Vigibase, the World Health Organization pharmacovigilance database related to the use of BRAF +/- MEK inhibitors from inception (1986) until March, 1, 2021 will be extracted.

Cases concurrently reporting on immune checkpoint inhibitor therapies will be excluded.

BRAF inhibitor

Intervention Type DRUG

Reports of adverse events occurring in patients treated with at least one BRAFi or MEKi as reported in the individual case safety reports.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* All consecutive AE cases associated with BRAFi and MEKi therapy. Combination therapy cases, where BRAFi were concurrently reported with MEKi will be identified, as well as the combination therapy regimen (V+C, D+T, E+B). We will not study MEKi monotherapy cases

Exclusion Criteria

* MEKi monotherapy cases
* Cases concurrently reporting on immune checkpoint inhibitor therapies
