キッセイ薬品工業(長野県松本市)が国内販売する血管炎治療薬「タブネオス」の投与後に患者が相次ぎ死亡した問題で、厚生労働省は21日、対応方針を公表した。「承認申請時の提出資料の信頼性に問題があり得る」とし、改めて医療機関に新規投与中止を要請。年内にも、承認取り消しの可能性も含め行政処分を決める。

キッセイ薬品に報告命令 血管炎治療薬20人死亡で―厚労省

タブネオスは、厚労省の承認を経て2022年6月に国内販売を開始。添付文書には重大な副作用として、肝機能障害が記載されていた。

同社は5月、肝機能障害で20人が死亡したと公表したが、後に1人は死因が異なることが判明。同省によると、新たに4人の死亡が確認され、計23人が肝機能障害で亡くなった。うち6人は薬との因果関係が否定できなかった。

承認に当たっては、開発元の米医薬品会社による治験の試験成績が根拠となった。しかし、欧米の規制当局が不適切な研究方法を指摘。欧州では8月に承認が取り消され、米でも取り消しが勧告された。

If a child falls off a bicycle, it can cause serious internal injuries... Be careful of "handlebar trauma"

The National Consumer Affairs Center of Japan is warning of ``handlebar injuries,'' where children hit their abdomens with bicycle handlebars. From April 2021 to July 2026, there were 39 accidents involving people under the age of 15, and even seemingly minor injuries can result in serious internal injuries such as pancreatic damage. It is particularly common among children aged 6 to 14 and 9 to 10, and children with soft ribs are unable to protect their internal organs, making them more susceptible to serious injuries.

Differences in physical strength depending on club membership: Exercise opportunities for women in their 40s are also an issue - Japan Sports Agency survey

A 2025 survey by the Japan Sports Agency revealed that the disparity in physical strength based on whether people belong to sports clubs or clubs is widening, especially among the younger generation. Among 19-year-old boys, the difference increased from 6.29 points in 2001 to 8.45 points, and the decline in physical fitness among non-members was noticeable.

[ITmedia News] Approximately half of Japanese colon cancer cases involve “toxins from intestinal bacteria” 70% of cases occur in people under 40 years of age University of Tokyo and Osaka University conduct whole genome analysis of 200 people

A research team led by the Institute of Medical Science at the University of Tokyo conducted whole-genome analysis of 200 Japanese patients with colorectal cancer and discovered that colibactin, a toxin produced by intestinal bacteria, was involved in about half of the cases. In particular, mutation signatures were observed in 70% of young people under the age of 40, suggesting that DNA damage had accumulated since childhood.
