Association between cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 inhibitors and venous thromboembolism: analysis of F.A.E.R.S. data

Although it is not able to confirm the casual relationship between VTE and CDK4/6 inhibitors, this study suggested signal of VTE reporting in patients receiving CDK4/6 inhibitors, which is likely to reflect a potential association. The results may enhance physicians' awareness of the potential side effect of VTE associated with CDK 4/6 inhibitors. An early recognition of VTE signs/symptoms could decrease the morbidity and severity of such adverse events.
