Cetuximab: adverse event profile and recommendations for toxicity management.
Cetuximab (Erbitux, IMC-C225, ImClone Systems Incorporated, New York, NY) is a monoclonal antibody targeted to the epidermal growth factor receptor. Expression of the epidermal growth factor receptor is associated with disease progression, poor survival, poor response to therapy, and the development of resistance to therapy in many solid tumors. Cetuximab blocks the binding of natural ligands t...
متن کاملStandardizing adverse drug event reporting data
BACKGROUND The Adverse Event Reporting System (AERS) is an FDA database providing rich information on voluntary reports of adverse drug events (ADEs). Normalizing data in the AERS would improve the mining capacity of the AERS for drug safety signal detection and promote semantic interoperability between the AERS and other data sources. In this study, we normalize the AERS and build a publicly a...
متن کاملEstimating the global disease burden due to ultraviolet radiation exposure.
BACKGROUND WHO's global burden of disease studies, undertaken since 1996, apportion the total global disease burden, measured in disability-adjusted life years (DALYs), to specific diseases and injuries. Recent assessments of the relative burden due to specific environmental risk factors, plus an understanding of the nature of the risk factor, may guide resource allocation in risk factor manage...
متن کاملMethods for Estimating the Global Burden of Cerebrovascular Diseases
The Global Burden of Disease (GBD) study is a long-standing effort to report consistent and comprehensive measures of disease burden for the world. In this paper, we describe the methods used to estimate the global burden of stroke for the GBD 2013 study. Pathologic subtypes of stroke are modeled separately for two mutually exclusive and exhaustive categories: (1) ischemic stroke and (2) hemorr...
متن کاملAccounting for model uncertainty in estimating global burden of disease.
OBJECTIVE To illustrate the effects of failing to account for model uncertainty when modelling is used to estimate the global burden of disease, with specific application to childhood deaths from rotavirus infection. METHODS To estimate the global burden of rotavirus infection, different random-effects meta-analysis and meta-regression models were constructed by varying the stratification cri...
