This analysis performed signal identification for dupilumab by monitoring for the occurrence of incident non-pregnancy and non-cancer health outcomes and associated temporal clusters among new episodes of dupilumab use in the Sentinel Distributed Database (SDD).
The cohort selection period is from March 1, 2017 to June 30, 2023. We distributed this request to 14 Sentinel Data Partners on December 22, 2023.
Statistical alerts generated by this analysis do not on their own represent safety signals. Alerts are triaged in consideration of the study design, existing drug knowledge, therapeutic context, treated population, and potential public health impact. Alerts determined to be newly identified safety signals (NISS) follow the FDA’s Center for Drug Evaluation and Research manual of policies and procedures for NISS (MAPP 4121.3).
