Abstract
This comprehensive review discusses the dosing strategies of cancer treatment drugs for patients with impaired kidney function, specifically those with chronic kidney disease (CKD), undergoing hemodialysis, and kidney transplant recipients. CKD patients often necessitate dose adjustments of chemotherapeutic agents, e.g., platinum preparations, pyrimidine fluoride antimetabolites, antifolate agents, molecularly targeted agents, and bone-modifying agents, to prevent drug accumulation and toxicity due to diminished renal clearance of the administered drugs and their metabolites. In hemodialysis patients, factors such as drug removal from hemodialysis and altered pharmacokinetics demand careful optimization of anticancer drug therapy, including dose adjustment and timing of administration. While free cisplatin is removed by hemodialysis, most of the tissue- and protein-bound cisplatin remains in the body and rebound cisplatin elevations are observed after hemodialysis. It is not recommended hemodialysis for drug removal, regardless of timing. Kidney transplant patients encounter unique challenges in cancer treatment, as maintaining the balance between reduction of immunosuppression, switching to mTOR inhibitors, and considering potential drug interactions with chemotherapeutic agents and immunosuppressants are crucial for preventing graft rejection and achieving optimal oncologic outcomes. The review underscores the importance of personalized, patient-centric approaches to anticancer drug therapy in patients with impaired kidney function.

Front Oncol 2022; 12:892793. [PMID: 35692805 PMCID: PMC9174522 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2022.892793] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/09/2022] [Accepted: 04/07/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
The clinical management of metastatic urothelial carcinoma has significantly evolved with the emergence of monoclonal antibodies and antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs). Enfortumab vedotin (EV) was granted approval by the FDA in 2021 for patients with locally advanced or metastatic urothelial carcinoma who have received prior immunotherapy and platinum-containing chemotherapy. Little to no data exist for the use of EV in patients with concurrent end-stage renal disease (ESRD) using either hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis (PD). Here, we present the case of a patient with metastatic urothelial carcinoma on PD who failed multiple lines of treatment but demonstrated an impressive response to EV without significant toxicity. We discuss the possible impact of peritoneal dialysis on the pharmacokinetics of ADCs and the potential for safe administration based on known pharmacokinetic data.

Abstract
Targeting the immune system with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) to treat cancer has been lately adopted with a significant improvement of patients' survival. In parallel, the incidence of malignancy in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients is increasing, but solid evidence concerning the efficacy and safety of ICI in this population is lacking. Moreover, the use of these agents as immunity boosters in kidney graft recipients treated with immunosuppressors is still controversial. We present in this article a review of the pharmacological properties of these drugs and their behavior with kidney failure and dialysis, as well as evidence of their use in different populations of CKD. Most of the available data are limited to case reports and case series. These drugs appear to be safe without dose adjustment in CKD patients and patients on dialysis. A major concern with this therapy in transplanted patients remains the risk of graft rejection.

Cisplatin and carboplatin pharmacokinetics in a pediatric patient with hepatoblastoma receiving peritoneal dialysis. Cancer Chemother Pharmacol 2020; 86:445-449. [PMID: 32816154 PMCID: PMC7479000 DOI: 10.1007/s00280-020-04130-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/28/2020] [Accepted: 08/13/2020] [Indexed: 11/30/2022]
Abstract
Purpose Cisplatin and carboplatin are frequently used drugs in the treatment of pediatric hepatoblastoma. Dosing guidelines for these drugs in children requiring peritoneal dialysis are lacking. Here, we describe the case of a 3-year-old boy with pre-existing end-stage renal disease on peritoneal dialysis, requiring treatment with cisplatin and carboplatin for hepatoblastoma. Methods Pharmacokinetic data were generated to support clinical dosing decisions, with the aim of adequate exposure and minimal toxicity. In the first chemotherapy cycle, 25% of the standard cisplatin dose and 75% of the carboplatin dose, calculated using the pediatric Calvert formula, were administered. Free platinum concentrations were determined in plasma ultrafiltrate and dialysate samples drawn after administration of cis- and carboplatin. Results Cisplatin was well tolerated and the observed AUC of cisplatin were 15.3 and 14.3 mg/L h in cycles 1 and 3, respectively. The calculated AUC of carboplatin in cycle 1 (9.8 mg/mL min) exceeded target AUC of 6.5 mg/mL min and toxicity was observed; therefore, the dose was reduced in cycles 2 and 3. The observed AUC in cycles 2 and 3 was 5.4 and 5.7 mg/mL min respectively. Platinum concentrations in the dialysate showed that 3–4% of the total dose of cisplatin and 10–12% of the total dose of carboplatin were excreted via peritoneal dialysis. Chemotherapy enabled extended hemihepatectomy and complete remission was achieved. Conclusion This report shows that it is feasible to measure AUCs for both drugs and to individualize the dose of these drugs according to the PK results and clinical parameters. Our advice for future cases would be to calculate the starting dose of carboplatin using the (pediatric) Calvert formula, assuming a dialytic clearance of zero, and to adjust the dose if required, based on therapeutic drug monitoring.
