{Abstract}: UNASSIGNED: Osteoporosis (OP), characterized by low bone mass and increased fracture risk, is a prevalent skeletal disorder. Teriparatide (TP) and abaloparatide (ABL) are anabolic agents that may reduce fracture incidence, but their impact on musculoskeletal and connective tissue disorders (MCTD) risk is uncertain.
UNASSIGNED: A retrospective, observational disproportionality analysis was conducted utilizing FAERS data from Q1 2004 to Q3 2023, where TP or ABL was identified as the primary suspect drug. Multiple data mining algorithms, including reporting odds ratio (ROR), proportional reporting ratio (PRR), Bayesian confidence propagation neural network (BCPNN), and multi-item gamma Poisson shrinker (MGPS), were employed to detect MCTD safety signals.
UNASSIGNED: A total of 366,747 TP-related and 422,377 ABL-related cases were identified, predominantly among female patients aged ≥45 years. The top specific AEs involved musculoskeletal, connective tissue, and administration site disorders. Comparative analysis revealed a higher frequency of AEs related to the nervous, cardiovascular, and gastrointestinal systems for ABL compared to TP. Both drugs exhibited strong signals for arthralgia, limb pain, back pain, muscle spasms, bone pain, muscle pain, and muscle weakness.
UNASSIGNED: The analysis suggests a potential MCTD risk with TP and ABL treatment in OP patients, highlighting the need for AE monitoring and management in clinical practice. This contributes to a better understanding of the safety profiles of these anabolic medications.
