Abstract
Background: The objective of this study was to compare the safety profiles of OCA and UDCA for the treatment of PBC using the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System database.
Methods: We extracted reports for OCA from 2016 to 2023 and UDCA from 2004 to 2023. Demographic details, adverse events (AEs), and concomitant medications were analyzed using descriptive statistics and signal detection methods.
Results: The most common for OCA were pruritus (1345 cases, ROR 20.96) and fatigue (528 cases, ROR 3.46). UDCA was more frequently associated with hepatocellular carcinoma (22 cases, ROR 16.37) and type I hypersensitivity reactions (11 cases, ROR 12.77). OCA was also linked to a higher frequency of constipation (161 cases, ROR 3.92) and increased blood alkaline phosphatase levels (145 cases, ROR 44.27).
Conclusion: This study reveals distinct safety profiles for OCA and UDCA in the treatment of PBC. OCA is associated with a higher frequency of pruritus, fatigue, constipation, and increased blood alkaline phosphatase levels, while UDCA is linked to hepatocellular carcinoma and type I hypersensitivity reactions. These findings support personalized treatment approaches based on individual patient characteristics.
期刊介绍:
Drug Research (formerly Arzneimittelforschung) is an international peer-reviewed journal with expedited processing times presenting the very latest research results related to novel and established drug molecules and the evaluation of new drug development. A key focus of the publication is translational medicine and the application of biological discoveries in the development of drugs for use in the clinical environment. Articles and experimental data from across the field of drug research address not only the issue of drug discovery, but also the mathematical and statistical methods for evaluating results from industrial investigations and clinical trials. Publishing twelve times a year, Drug Research includes original research articles as well as reviews, commentaries and short communications in the following areas: analytics applied to clinical trials chemistry and biochemistry clinical and experimental pharmacology drug interactions efficacy testing pharmacodynamics pharmacokinetics teratology toxicology.
