Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

High doses of gabapentin are associated with pancreatic acinar cell tumors in rats, but there has been no post marketing pancreatic carcinogenicity signal with gabapentin as reported by spontaneous reports in AERS or in the published literature. In a published case-control screening study of the association of gabapentin with 55 cancers, the only cancer that met the screening criteria for possibly increased cancer risk with gabapentin exposure was renal (including renal pelvis) cancer. This association was judged to be likely due to or substantially accentuated by confounding by cigarette smoking, hypertension, and lifestyle (Cancer Causes Control 2009;20:1821-1835).

The relationship between gabapentin exposure and pancreatic cancer and renal cancer is studied in NCT01138124, and supplemental analyses for these cancers are performed in the current study. The FDA recommended GSK also study the relationship between gabapentin and all-cancer sites, as well as cancer at the following specific sites: 1) stomach, 2) anus, anal canal, and anorectum, 3) lung and bronchus, 4) bones and joints, 5) breast, 6) penis, 7) urinary bladder, and 8) other nervous system.

The primary objective of this study is to determine whether exposure to gabapentin is associated with an increased risk of developing all-cancer, and these specific cancers in the United Kingdom (UK) General Practice Research Database (GPRD). Each member of the UK population is registered with a General Practice, which centralizes the medical information not only from the general practitioners themselves but also from specialist referrals and hospital attendances. Over 487 General Practices contribute data to the GPRD.

The study cohort from which cases and controls are drawn is all subjects in the GPRD 1993-2008. Gabapentin was approved in the UK in May 1993. Entry into the study cohort begins Jan 1, 1993 for all those who are registered in GPRD before that time, and at the time of registration if later than Jan 1, 1993. Subjects are excluded from the GPRD cohort if they have a cancer diagnosis or a history of cancer prior to the cohort entry date. Patients with a first diagnosis of the respective cancer 1995-2008 are risk set matched with up to 10 controls within the same General Practice for age at cohort entry (within two years), sex, and year of entry into the study cohort (within one year). For cases, the index date is the date of first diagnosis of the respective cancer. The index date for controls is set as the date at which the follow-up time from cohort entry is the same as the case. The index date is chosen so as to give the control equal follow-up time to that of the case for ascertainment of use of gabapentin. Cases and controls will be required to have at least 2 years of follow-up in the study cohort before their index date. Cases must have no history of any other cancer diagnosis prior to the index date. Controls are required to be free of cancer diagnosis in the database up to the control's index date.

Data on gabapentin prescriptions are obtained for cases and controls from study cohort entry to the index date. Gabapentin exposure will be assessed as ever/never, number of prescriptions, cumulative dose, and cumulative duration, with a 2 year lag period incorporated to control for protopathic bias (gabapentin prescription for initial pain symptoms of undiagnosed cancer) and latency (time between cancer onset and specific GPRD cancer diagnosis).

Crude and adjusted odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals (CI) will be produced from conditional logistic regression models, with additional analyses evaluating for dose-response. Covariates include indications for gabapentin use and risk factors for each cancer.

Detailed Description

Actual number of patients may be less, as it is possible for a patient to be represented in more than one of the 22 arms (See "Participant Flow: Overall Study" Table) because of the risk set sampling.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
UK GPRD 1993-2008

The study cohort from which cases and controls are drawn is all subjects in the United Kingdom (UK) General Practice Research Database (GPRD) 1993-2008. Each member of the UK population is registered with a General Practice, which centralizes the medical information not only from the general practitioners themselves but also from specialist referrals and hospital attendances. Over 487 General Practices contribute data to the GPRD. Entry into the study cohort begins Jan 1, 1993 for all those who are registered in GPRD before that time, and at the time of registration if later than Jan 1, 1993. Subjects are excluded from the GPRD cohort if they have a cancer diagnosis or a history of cancer prior to the cohort entry date.

Drug: Gabapentin prescriptions
The exposure of interest is gabapentin use as defined by prescriptions recorded by the GPRD general practitioner (British National Formulry codes). Data on prescriptions for gabapentin will be extracted for each case and control from entry into the study cohort up to two years prior to the index date (the exposure window). A two year lagged exposure is incorporated to account for latency between cancer onset and GPRD diagnosis, and for protopathic bias (gabapentin prescription for initial pain symptoms of undiagnosed cancer). Gabapentin exposure will be parameterized as follows: (1) Ever versus never exposed; (2) Number of prescriptions; (3) Duration of exposure; and (4) Cumulative dose.

Accepts Healthy Volunteers:
No
Inclusion Criteria:
  • The study cohort from which cases and controls are drawn is all subjects in the UK GPRD 1993-2008. Entry into the study cohort begins Jan 1, 1993 for all those who are registered in GPRD before that time, and at the time of registration if later than Jan 1, 1993. Follow-up ends Dec 31, 2008, or earlier if the subject leaves the GPRD for any reason including death.
Exclusion Criteria:
  • Subjects are excluded from the GPRD cohort if they have a cancer diagnosis or a history of cancer prior to the cohort entry date. Cases and controls will be required to have at least 2 years of follow-up in the study cohort before their index date (For cases, the index date is the date of first diagnosis of the respective cancer. The index date for controls is set as the date at which the follow-up time from cohort entry is the same as the case.) Cases must have no history of any other cancer diagnosis prior to the index date. Controls are required to be free of cancer diagnosis in the database up to the control's index date.

Study Results

Participant Flow

Recruitment Details Patients were not recruited for nor enrolled in this study. This study is a retrospective observational study. Data from medical records or insurance claims databases are anonymized and used to develop a patient cohort. All diagnoses and treatments are recorded in the course of routine medical practice.
Pre-assignment Detail Actual number of patients may be less, as it is possible for a patient to be represented in more than 1 of the 22 arms (See "Participant Flow: Overall Study" Table) because of the risk set sampling.

Arm/Group Description Incidence of all cancers defined as first time incident cancer diagnosis (READ/Oxford Medical Information System [OXMIS] codes) in the General Practice Research Database (GPRD) study cohort. Entry into the study cohort began January 1, 1993, or at the time of GPRD registration if after January 1, 1993. Follow-up ended December 31, 2008, or earlier if the respective cancer was diagnosed or if the participant left the GPRD for any reason including death. Participants with a prior history of cancer were excluded. Cancer cases were risk set matched with up to 10 controls for sex, age at GPRD study cohort entry (within two years), calendar year of cohort entry (within one year), and General Practice site. The index date for controls was set as the date at which the follow-up time from cohort entry was the same as the case. The index date was chosen so as to give the control equal follow-up time to that of the case for ascertainment of use of gabapentin. Participants with a history of cancer prior to the index date were excluded as controls. Incidence of stomach cancer defined as first time incident cancer diagnosis (READ/Oxford Medical Information System [OXMIS] codes) in the General Practice Research Database (GPRD) study cohort. Entry into the study cohort began January 1, 1993, or at the time of GPRD registration if after January 1, 1993. Follow-up ended December 31, 2008, or earlier if the respective cancer was diagnosed or if the participant left the GPRD for any reason including death. Participants with a prior history of cancer were excluded. Cancer cases were risk set matched with up to 10 controls for sex, age at GPRD study cohort entry (within two years), calendar year of cohort entry (within one year), and General Practice site. The index date for controls was set as the date at which the follow-up time from cohort entry was the same as the case.

Outcome Measures

1. Primary Outcome
Title Number of All-Cancer Cases and Matched Controls With the Indicated Exposure to Gabapentin
Description Incidence of all cancers. Gabapentin Exposure Description: Without 2 year lag = Gabapentin prescription from cohort entry to index date. With 2 year lag = Gabapentin prescription from cohort entry to 2 years prior to index date (to control for prediagnostic prescribing for pain symptoms possibly related to cancer).
Time Frame The case index date was the date of incident cancer diagnosis ascertained in the GPRD study cohort 1995-2008. The matched control index date was the date at which the follow-up time from his/her cohort entry was the same as that for the case.

Outcome Measure Data

Analysis Population Description
Cases & controls drawn from the GPRD study cohort. Entry into study cohort began January 1, 1993, or at time of GPRD registration if after Jan. 1, 1993. Follow-up ended December 31, 2008, or earlier if respective cancer was diagnosed or if participant left the GPRD for any reason including death. Participants with prior history of cancer excluded.
Arm/Group Title Incident All-cancer Patients Matched Controls for Incident All-cancer Patients
Arm/Group Description Patients with any type of incident cancer defined from READ/OXMIS codes in the years 1995-2008 Cancer-free control patients risk set matched with incident all-cancer patients for sex, age at cohort entry (within two years), calendar year of cohort entry (within one year), and General Practice site

38. Primary Outcome
Title Number of Bladder Cancer Cases and Matched Controls With the Indicated Duration of Exposure to Gabapentin
Description Incident bladder cancer. Gabapentin Exposure Description: With 2 year lag = Gabapentin exposure from cohort entry to 2 years prior to index date (to control for prediagnostic prescribing for pain symptoms possibly related to cancer). Without 2 year lag = Gabapentin exposure from cohort entry to index date. Tertile's with 2 year lag: Tertile 1 (0.01 - 1.38 months), Tertile 2 (1.39 - 5.56 months), and Tertile 3 (5.57 - 105.82 months). Tertile's without 2 year lag: Tertile 1 (0.01 - 1.38 months), Tertile 2 (1.39 - 5.72 months), and Tertile 3 (5.73 - 123.70 months).
Time Frame The case index date was the date of incident bladder cancer diagnosis ascertained in the GPRD study cohort 1995-2008. The matched control index date was the date at which the follow-up time from his/her cohort entry was the same as that for the case

Outcome Measure Data

Description Incident renal cancer. Gabapentin Exposure Description: With 2 year lag = Gabapentin exposure from cohort entry to 2 years prior to index date (to control for prediagnostic prescribing for pain symptoms possibly related to cancer). Without 2 year lag = Gabapentin exposure from cohort entry to index date. Tertile's with 2 year lag: Tertile 1 (1-2 prescriptions), Tertile 2 (3-7 prescriptions), Tertile 3 (8-298 prescriptions). Tertiles without 2 year lag: Tertile 1 (1-2 prescriptions), Tertile 2 (3-7 prescriptions), and Tertile 3 (8-388 prescriptions).
Time Frame The case index date was the date of incident renal cancer diagnosis ascertained in the GPRD study cohort 1995-2008. The matched control index date was the date at which the follow-up time from his/her cohort entry was the same as that for the case.

Arm/Group Description Incidence of all cancers defined as first time incident cancer diagnosis (READ/Oxford Medical Information System [OXMIS] codes) in the General Practice Research Database (GPRD) study cohort. Entry into the study cohort began January 1, 1993, or at the time of GPRD registration if after January 1, 1993. Follow-up ended December 31, 2008, or earlier if the respective cancer was diagnosed or if the participant left the GPRD for any reason including death. Participants with a prior history of cancer were excluded. Cancer cases were risk set matched with up to 10 controls for sex, age at GPRD study cohort entry (within two years), calendar year of cohort entry (within one year), and General Practice site. The index date for controls was set as the date at which the follow-up time from cohort entry was the same as the case. The index date was chosen so as to give the control equal follow-up time to that of the case for ascertainment of use of gabapentin. Participants with a history of cancer prior to the index date were excluded as controls. Incidence of stomach cancer defined as first time incident cancer diagnosis (READ/Oxford Medical Information System [OXMIS] codes) in the General Practice Research Database (GPRD) study cohort. Entry into the study cohort began January 1, 1993, or at the time of GPRD registration if after January 1, 1993.
