Here, investigators use international pharmacovigilance databases such as the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) of individual safety case reports, to identify cases of sepsis-related toxicities related to ADC.
Although antibody-drug conjugate(ADC) has proved effective in treating many cancers, few patients receiving ADC may experience rare but life-threatening sepsis-related toxicities such as sepsis and septic shock. Today, data about sepsis/septic shock are scarce.~The objective was to investigate reports of sepsis/septic shock adverse events related to ADC, including Gemtuzumab Ozogamicin, Trastuzumab Emtansine, Inotuzumab Ozogamicin, Enfortumab vedotin, Trastuzumab deruxtecan, Sacituzumab govitecan, Brentuximab Vedotin, Moxetumomab pasudotox, Polatuzumab Vedotin, Belantamab Mafodotin, loncastuximab tesirine and Tisotumab vedotin using international pharmacovigilance databases such as the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS).
