Profiling the Cardiovascular Toxicities of CDK4/6 Inhibitors: A Real-World Pharmacovigilance Study.

ABSTRACT: Cyclin-dependent kinase 4 and 6 (CDK4/6) inhibitors are approved for the treatment of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER-2)-negative, hormone receptor-positive breast cancer. The cardiovascular toxicity of CDK4/6 inhibitors is not well understood. This study aims to profile the cardiac events associated with CDK4/6 inhibitors. Reports from 2015Q1 to 2024Q1 were obtained from the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS). Reports identifying palbociclib, ribociclib, and abemaciclib as the primary suspect were examined for cardiovascular toxicity, including hypertension, cardiac failure, cardiomyopathy, arrhythmia, myocardial infarction, and myocarditis. Signal detection was performed using the proportional reporting ratio (PRR), reporting odds ratio (ROR), and information compon
