Analysis of drug-induced interstitial lung disease using the Japanese Adverse Drug Event Report database
Abstract
Drug-induced interstitial lung disease occurs when exposure to a drug causes inflammation and, eventually, fibrosis of the lung interstitium. Drug-induced interstitial lung disease is associated with substantial morbidity and mortality. The aim of this retrospective study was to obtain new information on the time-to-onset profiles of drug-induced interstitial lung disease by consideration of other associated clinical factors using the Japanese Adverse Drug Event Report database. We identified and analyzed reports of drug-induced interstitial lung disease between 2004 and 2018 from the Japanese Adverse Drug Event Report database. The reporting odds ratio and 95% confidence interval was used to detect the signal for each drug-induced interstitial lung disease incidence. We evaluated the time-to-onset profile of drug-induced interstitial lung disease and used the applied association rule mining technique to uncover undetected relationships, such as possible risk factors. The reporting odds ratios (95% confidence intervals) of drug-induced interstitial lung disease due to temsirolimus, gefitinib, sho-saiko-to, sai-rei-to, osimertinib, amiodarone, alectinib, erlotinib, everolimus, and bicalutamide were 18.3 (15.6-21.3), 17.8 (16.5-1...Continue Reading
