A disproportionality analysis for assessing the safety of FLT3 inhibitors using the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS).

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Objectives: This pharmacovigilance analysis was conducted to assess the safety signals of FMS-related tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3) inhibitors in a real-world setting using the United States Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS). Design: We analyzed adverse event (AE) reports related to FLT3 inhibitors submitted to the FAERS database from the first quarter of 2015 to the fourth quarter of 2022. Disproportionality analysis was used to identify AEs of FLT3 inhibitors in the FAERS database. Results: A total of 55,393 AE reports were identified, of which 5938, 44,013, and 5442 were attributed to midostaurin, sorafenib, and gilteritinib, respectively, as primary suspects. Compared to the full database, significant safety signals at the system organ class level were observed for midostaurin (blood and lymphatic system disorders and hepatobiliary disorders), sorafenib (skin and subcutaneous tissue disorders and hepatobiliary disorders), and gilteritinib (investigations, blood and lymphatic system disorders, infections and infestations, and hepatobiliary disorders). All the drugs studied were associated with hepatobiliary disorders. The most prominent AEs associated with midostaurin, sorafenib, and gilteritinib were cytopenia, palmar-plantar erythrodysesthesia syndrome, and increased blast cell count, respectively. Compared with chemotherapy, midostaurin and gilteritinib showed a higher risk of electrocardiogram QT prolongation, gastrointestinal hemorrhage, cerebral hemorrhage, and increased white blood cell count. Gilteritinib had the highest overall death percentage (30.28%), whereas sorafenib had the lowest (23.06%). Conclusion: Mining AE signals using the FAERS database provides a method for analyzing the safety of FLT3 inhibitors in post-marketing. We found several significant AE signals that corresponded to previous studies; however, some AE signals were not mentioned in the drug instructions. Our study could provide a direction for follow-up real-world studies to verify the results further.
