Background: Daratumumab is widely used in multiple myeloma (MM) and light chain amyloidosis (AL amyloidosis). The purpose of this study was to identify adverse event (AE) signals for daratumumab through the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) database to assess its safety in a large sample of people.
Methods: Based on data from the FAERS database, three disproportionality analysis methods were used to mine AE signals for daratumumab, including reporting odd ratio (ROR), proportional reporting ratio (PRR), and bayesian configuration promotion neural network (BCPNN).
Results: A total of 9220 AE reports with daratumumab as the primary suspect drug were collected, containing 23,946 AEs. Within these reports, 252 preferred terms (PT) levels, 73 high level term (HLT) levels and 11 system organ class (SOC) levels of AE signals were detected, along with some new AEs. Most AEs occurred within the first month after drug administration.
Conclusion: Our findings were consistent with the results of established studies that daratumumab has a good safety profile. The newly identified AEs are of concern and prospective clinical studies are needed to confirm whether they are causally related to daratumumab. This study provided an early warning for the safe use of daratumumab and also provided guidance for further safety studies.

Postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) is a life-threatening obstetric complication. We aimed to identify the drugs that associated with PPH based on the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) data, providing scientific evidence for targeted prevention of drug-related PPH risk factors. Data from 2004Q1 to 2025Q1 were extracted from FAERS, and disproportionality analysis was performed to identify potential drug signals.

Background: In recent years, with the expanding use of novel therapeutics such as immune checkpoint inhibitors and monoclonal antibodies, reports of drug-induced vitiligo have been increasing. This study aimed to identify drugs associated with vitiligo using the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS).
Methods: A retrospective disproportionality analysis was performed on FAERS reports from the first quarter of 2004 to the fourth quarter of 2024.

Objective: Laronidase is the first drug of enzyme replacement therapy approved for the treatment of mucopolysaccharidosis type I (MPS I). However, its adverse events (AEs) have not been investigated in real - world settings. The aim of this study was to investigate AEs associated with laronidase using the Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS).

Purpose: The Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) is an important source of information on suspected adverse drug reactions, but does not standardise drugs. The Adverse Event Open Learning Through Universal Standardization (AEOLUS) System Provides Standardisation of drugs in FAERS to RxNorm, but its coverage leaves room for improvement and mapping accuracy has not been established. Furthermore, drugs are not mapped to the Anatomical Therapeutic Chemical (ATC) Classification System, which is frequently used in pharmacovigilance studies.
