Background And Objectives: Although many systematic reviews for the human papillomavirus vaccines cost effectiveness have been published, they vary in perspectives, methods, and quality. We aimed to condense systematically such evidence to facilitate locating, processing, and learning, not only about the consensus of findings but also how models were built and their evolution over time and across settings.

Methods: We conducted an umbrella review of cost-effectiveness studies for human papillomavirus vaccines using three databases (PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane).

Eribulin is one of the few recommended chemotherapies for locally advanced breast cancer (LABC) or metastatic breast cancer (MBC). We systematically searched MEDLINE Ovid, Cochrane Library, IPA, CINAHL, Web of Science and ProQuest Dissertations for studies evaluating eribulin versus non-eribulin regimens in LABC/MBC till January 15, 2021. Primary effectiveness and safety outcomes were overall survival (OS) and adverse events (AE), respectively.

Background: Since the approval and availability of the first biosimilar in 2015 in the United States (US), evidence regarding the post-marketing safety of cancer supportive care biosimilars remains limited.

Objective: The aim was to explore the adverse event (AE) reporting patterns and detect disproportionate reporting signals for cancer supportive care biosimilars in the US compared to their originator biologics.

Methods: The US Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System database (January 1, 2004-March 31, 2020) was used to identify AE reports for filgrastim, pegfilgrastim, and epoetin alpha by type of product (originator biologics vs.
