ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
Cardiovascular adverse events (CVAEs) are common adverse effects of first-generation Bruton tyrosine kinase inhibitors (BTKis) and limit their use considerably. This led to the development of second-generation BTKis-acalabrutinib and zanubrutinib-which are more selective, potent, and presumed to have better safety profiles than the previous group of medications. However, there have been sporadic reports of CVAEs associated with second-generation BTKis in clinical practice. To address this issue, a comprehensive meta-analysis to pool the documented CVAEs was performed, including major hemorrhage, any bleeding, atrioventricular block, atrial fibrillation/flutter, pericardial effusion, pericarditis, heart failure, cardiac arrest, myocardial infarction, hypertension, hypotension, and stroke. This meta-analysis incorporated 8 studies. Among these, 6 were Phase III trials and 2 were Phase II trials. These studies collectively enrolled a total of 2938 patients.METHODS:
Multiple databases, including PubMed, MEDLINE, Cochrane Library, Scopus, and EMBASE, were systematically searched for relevant clinical trials from inception through January 14, 2023. The effect measure used was odds ratio (OR) and 95% CI.FINDINGS:
Of a total of 1774 studies identified during the initial database search, 8 were included in the meta-analysis. The incidence of overall and cardiovascular mortality was comparable between the 2 groups. There were no significant differences observed for cardiovascular mortality (OR = 0.36; 95% CI, 0.08-1.65; n = 2588; I2 = 45%; P = 0.19). Similar results were found for all-cause mortality (OR = 0.85; 95% CI, 0.67-1.07), any bleeding (OR = 1.90; 95% CI, 0.88-4.09), major bleeding (OR = 1.07; 95% CI, 0.65-1.76), atrioventricular block (OR = 0.74; 95% CI, 0.15-3.68), atrial fibrillation/flutter (OR = 0.74; 95% CI, 0.37-1.50), and other CVAEs associated with second-generation BTKis. IMPLICATIONS Based on the available evidence, there is no indication of worse cardiovascular outcomes or superiority of second-generation BTKis compared with standard treatments in terms of safety profile. However, additional large-scale controlled trials are needed to provide robust support for the superior tolerability of new-generation BTKis.Palabras clave
