2018 
343Background: Abiraterone acetate plus prednisone (AAP) and enzalutamide (ENZ), oral hormonal treatment of metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC), can have neuropsychiatric impact. Methods: The Proportional Reporting Ratio (PRR) was used to analyze evolution of suspected adverse drug reactions (ADRs) reported in real world, in EudraVigilance from March to August 2017. Results: From the total ADRs of AAP and ENZ reported in Eudra from March to August 2017, 1,162 were related to AAP and 5,101 were related to ENZ. ADRs of ENZ reported in Eudra in August were higher than those reported in March 2017, in all the neuropsychiatry ADRs analyzed. In the case of AAP, 44% of the neuropsychiatric suspected ADRs analyzed did not show new cases reported and 56% of the ADRs shown an increase, although it was not higher than 15 new cases reported. Conclusions: In August 2017, the updated ADRs of AAP and ENZ from Eudra were consistent with those observed in March 2017 (Iznaola et al.). It confirms an inc...
