Study summary

Although PARP inhibitors (PARPi) have proved effective in treating many cancers, few patients receiving PARPi may experience rare but life-threatening adverse events such as myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) and/or acute myeloid leukaemia (AML). Today, data about MDS/AML are scarce.

The objective was to investigate reports of MDS/AML adverse events related to PARPi, including olaparib, rucaparib, niraparib, talazoparib and veliparib using the World Health Organization (WHO) and the French pharmacovigilance databases.

Read the detailed description

Here, investigators use the World Health Organization (WHO) and the French database of individual safety case reports, to identify cases of MDS/AML related to PARPi.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. MDS/AML reports related to PARPi (from WHO database).

    Identification of the MDS and/or AML adverse event related to PARP inhibitors reported in the World Health Organization (WHO) database of individual safety case reports.

    Time frame: From inception to May 3, 2020

  2. MDS/AML reports related to PARPi (from French database).

    Identification of the MDS and/or AML adverse event related to PARP inhibitors reported in the French pharmacovigilance database of individual safety case reports. The aim is to describe clinical features of these rare adverse events, including bone marrow analyzes, cytogenetic and molecular abnormalities, blasts immunophenotyping anonymously reported in this database.

    Time frame: From inception to May 1, 2021

Secondary outcomes

  1. Description of the median time to onset since first PARPi exposure.

    Time frame: From inception to May 3, 2020

  2. Description of the fatality rate.

    Time frame: From inception to May 3, 2020

  3. Description of patients who experienced co-reported adverse events.

    Time frame: From inception to May 3, 2020
