Brief summary
Antineoplastic and immunomodulating agents may lead to various cardio-vascular adverse reactions. This study investigates reports of cardio-vascular toxicities for treatment including Anatomical Therapeutic Chemical (ATC) classification L (antineoplastic agents, endocrine therapy, immunostimulants, and immunosuppressants drugs) in the World Health Organization's (WHO) global database of individual safety case reports (VigiBase).
Detailed description
Antineoplastic therapies are responsible of a wide range of cardio-vascular side effects.The investigators use VigiBase, the World Health Organization (WHO) database of individual safety case reports, to identify cases of cardiovascular adverse drug reactions following treatment with antineoplastic and immunomodulating agents
Interventions
Antineoplastic agents, endocrine therapy, immunostimulants and immunosuppressants drugs included in the ATC classification L
