Based on the FAERS database, this study summarized the characteristics of antibody-drug conjugate (ADC)-related interstitial lung disease (ILD) events. Eight ADCs have significant correlations with ILD in both disproportionality and Bayesian analyses. Patients receiving trastuzumab deruxtecan exhibited the highest risk of ILD.
