Tygacil (tigecycline): Label Change - Increased Mortality Risk

[Posted 09/01/2010]

AUDIENCE: Infectious Disease, Critical Care Medicine, Internal Medicine

ISSUE: FDA reminded healthcare professionals of an increased mortality risk associated with the use of the intravenous antibacterial Tygacil (tigecycline) compared to that of other drugs used to treat a variety of serious infections. The increased risk was seen most clearly in patients treated for hospital-acquired pneumonia, especially ventilator-associated pneumonia, but was also seen in patients with complicated skin and skin structure infections, complicated intra-abdominal infections and diabetic foot infections. FDA has updated sections of the Tygacil drug label to include information regarding increased mortality risk of Tygacil.

BACKGROUND: Tygacil is approved by FDA for the treatment of complicated skin and skin structure infections, complicated intra-abdominal infections, and community acquired pneumonia. Tygacil is not approved for the treatment of hospital-acquired pneumonia (including ventilator-associated pneumonia) or diabetic foot infection. The increased risk was determined using a pooled analysis of clinical trials. See the Data Summary section of the FDA Drug Safety Communication for additional details.

RECOMMENDATION: Alternatives to Tygacil should be considered in patients with severe infections. Healthcare professionals and patients are encouraged to report adverse events or side effects related to the use of this product to the FDA's MedWatch Safety Information and Adverse Event Reporting Program:

事件:FDA提醒医护人员,与其他用于治疗各种严重感染的药物相比,使用静脉注射用抗菌素Tygacil(替加环素tigecycline)可能增加死亡风险。该风险最常见于用于治疗医院获得性肺炎的患者,特别是因换气机而引起的肺炎患者,另外,这种风险在伴有复杂性皮肤和皮肤结构感染、复杂性腹内感染以及糖尿病足感染的患者中也有发生。目前,FDA已更新了Tygacil的药品标签以纳入有关该药可能增加死亡风险的信息。
