Abstract
Background/objectives: Patients with thyroid eye disease (TED) taking teprotumumab have reported audiologic symptoms as a side effect; however, limited real world data and large sample sizes have been utilized to evaluate this relationship.
Methods: A retrospective cohort study was created in TriNetX to identify patients with TED utilizing ICD-10, CPT, and Healthcare Common Procedure coding systems. TED patients with and without teprotumumab treatment were analysed with greedy one-to-one propensity matching. Appearance of one or more new ICD-10 codes corresponding to audiologic outcomes of interest (tinnitus, sensorineural hearing loss, hypoacusis, hyperacusis, autophony, Eustachian tube dysfunction) served as the outcome of interest. Patients with a history of hearing impairment were also evaluated for worsening hearing loss after initiation of teprotumumab.
Results: Within the entire TriNetX cohort, 88 out of 441 patients with a diagnosis code for TED treated with teprotumumab had new appearance of an audiologic outcome within TriNetX. After matching, the relative risk for TED patients who were exposed to teprotumumab for new audiologic symptoms was increased with a risk ratio (RR) of 2.85 [95% CI 1.94, 4.20] compared to TED patients not exposed to teprotumumab. Of 51 patients with a history of hearing impairment and TED, 14 had record of new audiologic testing after teprotumumab administration (RR = 1.90 [0.96, 3.78]) compared to unexposed patients.
Conclusions: This study affirms previous research stating that TED patients receiving teprotumumab are at an increased risk of new audiologic side effects when compared to TED patients not using teprotumumab.
期刊介绍:
Eye seeks to provide the international practising ophthalmologist with high quality articles, of academic rigour, on the latest global clinical and laboratory based research. Its core aim is to advance the science and practice of ophthalmology with the latest clinical- and scientific-based research. Whilst principally aimed at the practising clinician, the journal contains material of interest to a wider readership including optometrists, orthoptists, other health care professionals and research workers in all aspects of the field of visual science worldwide. Eye is the official journal of The Royal College of Ophthalmologists.
Eye encourages the submission of original articles covering all aspects of ophthalmology including: external eye disease; oculo-plastic surgery; orbital and lacrimal disease; ocular surface and corneal disorders; paediatric ophthalmology and strabismus; glaucoma; medical and surgical retina; neuro-ophthalmology; cataract and refractive surgery; ocular oncology; ophthalmic pathology; ophthalmic genetics.
