However, the risk factors for developing ICI-related ILD remain poorly understood. Therefore, this study investigated the effect of concomitant analgesics on developing ICI-related ILD using the Japanese Adverse Drug Event Report (JADER) database. Patients and Methods: All the reported AE data were downloaded from the Pharmaceuticals and Medical Devices Agency website, and the JADER data between January 2014 and March 2021 were analysed. The relationship between ICI-related ILD and concomitant use of analgesics was assessed using reporting odds ratio (ROR) and 95% confidence interval. We investigated whether the effect of developing ILD varied according to the type of analgesics used during ICI treatment. Results: Positive signals for ICI-related ILD development were detected for the concomitant use of the narcotic analgesics codeine, fentanyl and oxycodone, but not with morphine. In contrast, there were no positive signals for the concomitant use of the non-narcotic analgesics celecoxib, acetaminophen, loxoprofen and tramadol. An increased ROR for ICI-related ILD in cases with concomitant use of narcotic analgesics was observed in a multivariate logistic analysis adjusted by sex and age. Conclusion: These results suggest that the concomitant use of narcotic analgesics is involved in the development of ICI-related ILD. ER -
