Characteristic analysis of adverse reactions of five anti-TNFɑ agents: a descriptive analysis from WHO-VigiAccess.

ABSTRACT: Introduction: Tumor necrosis factor (TNF) inhibitors (adalimumab, infliximab, etanercept, golimumab, and certolizumab pegol) have revolutionized the treatment of severe immune-mediated inflammatory diseases, including rheumatoid arthritis, Crohn's disease, psoriatic arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, and ulcerative colitis. This study assessed adverse drug reactions (ADRs) after the use of TNFα inhibitors in VigiAccess of the World Health Organization (WHO) and compared the adverse reaction characteristics of five inhibitors to select the drug with the least risk for individualized patient use. Methods: The study was a retrospective descriptive analysis method in design. We sorted out five marketed anti-TNFα drugs, and their ADR reports were obtained from WHO-VigiAccess. Data
