Brief Summary: Abiraterone associated with prednisone is used in prostate cancer. Abiraterone is a selective small-molecule inhibiting cytochrome P450 17A1 (CYP17A1), a key enzyme in androgen synthesis.

CYP17A inhibition is also responsible for mineral corticosteroid related adverse events as hypokaliemia, fluid retention, and hypertension. Primary hyperaldosteronism is associated with cardiovascular toxicities such as atrial fibrillation and cardiac failure. Other androgen-deprivation therapies are not associated with increased mineral corticosteroid level.

This study investigates reports of cardiovascular toxicities for treatment including L02 (sex hormones used in treatment of neoplastic diseases), and G03 (sex hormones) used in prostate cancer in the French pharmacovigilance database and in the EudraCT database.
Detailed Description: Due to its peculiar pharmacology, abiraterone is potentially associated with more cardiotoxicity as compared to other androgen-deprivation therapies. This study investigates the main characteristics of patients affected by cardiovascular side effects of which supraventricular arrhythmias (including atrial fibrillation, atrial flutter, supraventricular tachycardia), and cardiac failure imputed to drugs classified as L02, and G03 according to anatomical therapeutic chemical (ATC) classification. A causality assessment according to the World Health Organization-The Uppsala Monitoring Centre (WHO-UMC) is systematically applied.
