Conditions
Brief summary
Anticancer drugs can lead to various adverse events. This study analyses reports of adverse events 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
The investigators use VigiBase, the World Health Organization (WHO) database of individual safety case reports, to identify cases of adverse events following treatment with antineoplastic agents, endocrine therapy, immunostimulants or immunosuppressants drugs.
Interventions
Antineoplastic agents, endocrine therapy, immunostimulants and immunosuppressants drugs included in the ATC classification L
