Reports of AEs were retrospectively obtained from the US Food and Drug Administration's (FDA's) Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) database and positive signals were quantified by employing three algorithms.Results: A total of 36 studies involving 10,828 patients were analyzed in pooled-analysis and 58,835 case reports were retrieved.

Alopecia, regardless of grades, had the highest estimated incidence of non-hematological AEs. The estimated incidences of AEs of Nab-paclitaxel tended to be higher than other formulations, especially neutropenia (46.53, 35.01-58.42). Docetaxel had the least signals but alopecia and depression have quantified several signals.Conclusions: The safety of nab-paclitaxel was beyond expectation and unusual signals of alopecia and depression of docetaxel need to be paid attention to.

Case reports on statin-associated MG dated up to 31 December 2023 were retrieved for retrospective analysis.Results: Data from FAERS showed 178,802 AEs of statins, with musculoskeletal disorders being the most common. Compared to other cholesterol-lowering drugs, statins exhibited a significant increase in MG, with 128 reports included, with pravastatin having the highest proportion. Sixteen cases from 12 studies demonstrated atorvastatin was the most frequently reported agent associated with MG. The median age was 58 years, with a male predominance. The main clinical symptoms were ocular muscle weakness, lasting from 1 week to 3 years. Twelve patients were acetylcholine receptor (AChR) antibody positive.

Despite their potential for reducing healthcare costs, concerns persist regarding their ability to induce an immune response, which could affect efficacy and safety. This review critically evaluates the current evidence on the immunogenicity of biosimilars and discusses the regulatory frameworks guiding their approval and monitoring.Areas covered: This review includes studies from databases like Scopus, PubMed, Web of Science, and ScienceDirect, published up to April 2024. It explores the 'totality of the evidence' approach used by regulatory bodies like the FDA and EMA, detailing analytical, preclinical, and clinical assessments that ensure biosimilars' similarity to their reference products in terms of structure, function, and clinical outcomes. The review also addresses the challenges and limitations in current research methodologies and the implications of immunogenicity on therapeutic efficacy and patient safety.Expert opinion: While substantial evidence confirms the safety and efficacy of biosimilars, the review emphasizes the need for continuous regulatory vigilance and advanced methodologies in post-marketing surveillance to capture long-term immunogenicity data effectively. It advocates for integrating cutting-edge analytical techniques and personalized medicine to better manage immunogenic risks associated with biological therapies.","PeriodicalId":12232,"journal":{"name":"Expert Opinion on Drug Safety","volume":" ","pages":"1-9"},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2025-02-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143425409","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Psychosis is a major cause of disability in PD and is primarily due to an interaction with PD medication. The decision to treat psychosis is determined by the severity of the symptoms, impact on quality of life and tolerance for the treatment. Initial management involves a reduction in non-PD psychoactive medications and/or modification of PD medications. Pharmacotherapy is primarily limited to atypical antipsychotics and pimavanserin.Areas covered: This review will focus on the phenomenology of Parkinson's disease psychosis and its management.Expert opinion: Pimavanserin is the only Food and Drug Administration medication approved for the treatment of PDP. Among the antipsychotics, only clozapine and pimavanserin demonstrated efficacy in the treatment of PDP. Despite lack of evidence for efficacy in PDP, quetiapine is commonly used because it does not worsen motor function and lacks the blood monitoring requirement of clozapine. Pimavanserin is the first-line treatment for mild psychotic symptoms that do not require a rapid response and quetiapine and clozapine for psychosis that requires improvement in a short period of time. Antipsychotics used to treat PDP should demonstrate safety, motor tolerability and efficacy over time.","PeriodicalId":12232,"journal":{"name":"Expert Opinion on Drug Safety","volume":" ","pages":"1-6"},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2025-02-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143406510","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For this, data from the Biologics in Pediatric Rheumatology (BiKeR) Registry were analyzed with a focus on potential adverse drug reactions like serious infections, autoimmune processes or malignancies.Expert opinion: Besides JIA category-specific differences, investigating side effects like severe infections and the development of additional autoimmune processes due to therapy is crucial.

However, combined analyses with other antiepileptic drugs revealed that the association of LEV with SCARs was comparatively weaker (p < 0.05). Univariate logistic regression analysis indicated that males, individuals aged 45 ~ 65 years, and combination therapy with eslicarbazepine, phenytoin, carbamazepine, and lamotrigine significantly increased the risk of developing SCARs (p < 0.05). Notably, SCARs were most likely to occur within the initial week of LEV treatment (39.39%).Conclusions: Despite certain limitations, this study offers updated insights into the association between LEV and SCARs.
