Meta-analysis of Censored Adverse Events. | LitMetric

Meta-analysis is a powerful tool for assessing drug safety by combining treatment-related toxicological findings across multiple studies, as clinical trials are typically underpowered for detecting adverse drug effects. However, incomplete reporting of adverse events (AEs) in published clinical studies is frequently encountered, especially if the observed number of AEs is below a pre-specified study-dependent threshold. Ignoring the censored AE information, often found in lower frequency, can significantly bias the estimated incidence rate of AEs. Despite its importance, this prevalent issue in meta-analysis has received little statistical or analytic attention in the literature. To address this challenge, we propose a Bayesian approach to accommodating the censored and possibly rare AEs for meta-analysis of safety data. Through simulation studies, we demonstrate that the proposed method can improve accuracy in point and interval estimation of incidence probabilities, particularly in the presence of censored data. Overall, the proposed method provides a practical solution that can facilitate better-informed decisions regarding drug safety.
