A real-world pharmacovigilance study of romidepsin based on FDA adverse event reporting system database.
Article in Frontiers in oncology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Background: Romidepsin is a class I-selective histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor indicated for the treatment of adult patients with cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL) who have received at least one prior systemic therapy and for adult patients with relapsed or refractory peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL). Despite its clinical use, large-scale safety data remain limited. This study leverages the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) database to characterize romidepsin-associated adverse events (AEs) in real-world settings, aiming to enhance clinical risk management. Methods: Data from the FAERS database, spanning from January 2014 to March 2025, served as the basis for this analysis. To evaluate the association between romidepsin and AEs, multiple disproportionality analyses were employed, 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). Results: Within the specified reporting period, 17,448,626 AE reports were recorded in the FAERS database, of which 1,285 events were associated with romidepsin. Based on four calculation methods, 101 preferred terms (PTs) related to romidepsin were determined. Common AEs included thrombocytopenia, pyrexia, anemia, electrocardiogram QT prolonged, and infections, aligning with the drug label. In addition, some unanticipated major AEs were detected, including cardiotoxicities beyond QT prolongation (acute cardiac failure, atrial fibrillation, sinus tachycardia, mitral valve incompetence, and bundle branch block left) alongside other significant AEs: hepatic failure, amenorrhea, mental status changes, glomerular filtration rate decreased, embolism, and retinal detachment. Conclusion: This study provides a systematic evaluation of AEs associated with romidepsin, confirming its established safety profile and identifying several emerging safety concerns in a real-world setting. These findings offer valuable insights to assist clinicians and pharmacists in better-managing romidepsin's safety.
