Abstract
With many available data sources, clinicians need to consider the benefit-risk profile of individual anticoagulants when balancing the need for anticoagulation, including evaluating the risks in patients with comorbidities and potential drug-drug interactions. This narrative review presents clinical data across multiple phases of drug development for the use of apixaban, a selective factor Xa inhibitor, when taken concomitantly with other agents, and evaluates the benefit-risk profile of apixaban with these interacting medications. Key subgroup analyses from the phase 3 ARISTOTLE trial (NCT00412984) are presented using data from patients who received either concomitant inhibitors or inducers of cytochrome P450 3A4 and/or P‑glycoprotein. We also review the available evidence for the use of apixaban in patients with cancer-associated thromboembolism, as well as the use of apixaban in patients with COVID-19.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The number of cancer patients receiving long-term hemodialysis (HD) is increasing, and HD could jeopardize treatments' safety and efficacy. Therefore, managing anticancer drugs is critical in this frail population. In addition, evidence of HD safety or risk is regularly released both for cytotoxic chemotherapy (CT) or hormone therapy (HT) as well as new therapies with molecularly targeted therapies (MTT), immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI), and a summary of current knowledge is needed. METHODS We aimed to synthesize available data on cancer treatments in HD patients using PubMed database, FDA labels, summary of product characteristics (SmPC), FDA and EMA approval documents, guidelines and finally case reports for which relevant pharmacokinetic (PK) data is available. RESULTS For CT, recently proposed guidelines were balanced by the publication of particular toxic reports following them. SmPC was helpful in some cases, but no data was found for most CTs. MTT, both oral and monoclonal antibodies, were rarely modified by HD. However, HD patients have particular frailty that could require dose adaptation despite no substantial PK modification. Similarly, exposure to ICIs is unlikely to be modified by HD since immunoglobulins are not dialyzable. For HT, PK characteristics and HD impact were more heterogeneous and were reviewed molecule by molecule. CONCLUSIONS We summarized current knowledge on HD and cancer treatments. Data remains scarce, and the latest guidelines rely on few clinical data. There is a need to collect both retrospective and prospective data to better characterize the safety and relevant dose and schedule adaptations whenever needed in this situation to reinforce future guidelines.

Abstract
The advancement of renal replacement therapy has significantly enhanced the survival rates of patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) over time. However, this prolonged survival has also been associated with a higher likelihood of cancer diagnoses among these patients including breast cancer. Breast cancer treatment typically involves surgery, radiation, and systemic therapies, with approaches tailored to cancer type, stage, and patient preferences. However, renal replacement therapy complicates systemic therapy due to altered drug clearance and the necessity for dialysis sessions. This review emphasizes the need for optimized dosing and administration strategies for systemic breast cancer treatments in dialysis patients, aiming to ensure both efficacy and safety. Additionally, challenges in breast cancer screening and diagnosis in this population, including soft-tissue calcifications, are highlighted.

The influence of chronic renal insufficiency on multi-therapeutic modalities for breast cancer: a single-center experience. Breast Cancer 2024; 31:252-262. [PMID: 38150135 PMCID: PMC10901917 DOI: 10.1007/s12282-023-01530-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/17/2023] [Accepted: 11/25/2023] [Indexed: 12/28/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Due to the presence of other comorbidities and multi-therapeutic modalities in breast cancer, renally cleared chemotherapeutic regimens may cause nephrotoxicity. The aim of this retrospective study is to compare the chemotherapy types and outcomes in breast cancer patients with or without chronic renal disease. PATIENTS AND METHODS We retrospectively enrolled 62 female patients with breast cancer and underlying late stages (stage 3b, 4, and 5) of chronic kidney disease (CKD) treated from 2000 to 2017. They were propensity score-matched 1:1 with patients in our database with breast cancer and normal renal function (total n = 124). RESULTS The main subtype of breast cancer was luminal A and relatively few patients with renal impairment received chemotherapy and anti-Her-2 treatment. The breast cancer patients with late-stage CKD had a slightly higher recurrent rate, especially at the locally advanced stage. The 5-year overall survival was 90.1 and 71.2% for patients without and with late-stage CKD, but the breast cancer-related mortality rate was 88.9 and 24.1%, respectively. In multivariate analyses, dose-reduced chemotherapy was an independent negative predictor of 5-year recurrence-free survival and late-stage CKD was associated with lower 5-year overall survival rate. CONCLUSIONS Breast cancer patients with late-stage CKD may receive insufficient therapeutic modalities. Although the recurrence-free survival rate did not differ significantly by the status of CKD, patients with breast cancer and late-stage CKD had shorter overall survival time but a lower breast cancer-related mortality rate, indicated that the mortality was related to underlying disease.

Abstract
Purpose Globally, chronic kidney disease (CKD) is common and has been associated with an increased risk of colorectal cancer (CRC). There is a dearth of literature on the real-world morbidity and mortality associated with CKD comorbid with CRC. This study was performed to evaluate real-world survival outcomes of colorectal malignancy in Korean CKD patients. Methods The National Health Insurance Service of Korea provided data on patients who underwent surgical resection among patients diagnosed with CRC from 2002 to 2019. Results A total of 219,550 patients were included: 6,181 patients with underlying CKD and 213,369 patients without it. Each morbidity was significantly higher in the CKD-CRC group, and the postoperative mortality rates for the 30-day (3.11% vs. 1.78%, P < 0.001), 60-day (5.95% vs. 3.83%, P < 0.001), and 90-day mortality rate (8.12% vs. 5.32%, P < 0.001) were significantly higher in the CKD group. The median survival time (MST, year) was significantly lower in the CKD-CRC group (5.63; interquartile range [IQR], 5.26-5.91) than in the non-CKD-CRC group (8.71; IQR, 8.37-8.93). MST was significantly lower among CKD patients who received chemotherapy after adjustment by multivariate analysis (adjusted hazard ratio [HR], 1.43; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.37-1.49; P < 0.001]). Subgroup analysis showed that in the CKD-CRC group, MST was lower in patients who received dialysis than in those who did not, even after multivariate analysis (adjusted HR, 2.38; 95% CI, 2.20-2.58; P < 0.001). Conclusion Prevention of CKD-to-end-stage renal disease progression should be adopted as a strategy to increase postoperative survival, along with active surveillance and cancer treatment.

Abstract
Gynecological cancer poses a serious threat to women's health. Chemotherapy-based systemic therapy plays a crucial role in the treatment of gynecological cancers. Many systemic therapeutic drugs are metabolized in the kidneys. Therefore, normal renal function is a prerequisite for gynecological tumor patients to complete the full course of systematic treatment and provide a guarantee for achieving an ideal prognosis. Chronic kidney disease often places restrictions on systematic treatment to different extents, such as influencing drug pharmacokinetics, increasing drug toxicity, and the risk of adverse drug reactions. Unfortunately, women undergoing renal replacement have a higher risk of developing gynecological cancers. This article summarizes the current knowledge on systemic treatment drugs for patients with gynecological cancer undergoing dialysis. We discuss the optimal choice of the systematic therapeutic protocol, administration of form and dosage, and window of chemotherapy during hemodialysis sessions to ensure both effectiveness and safety in gynecological cancer patients.

Screening for dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase deficiency by measuring uracilemia in chronic kidney disease patients is associated with a high rate of false positives. Clin Chim Acta 2023; 543:117326. [PMID: 37011867 DOI: 10.1016/j.cca.2023.117326] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/09/2023] [Revised: 03/27/2023] [Accepted: 03/28/2023] [Indexed: 04/03/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Pretherapeutic screening for dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD) deficiency based on the measurement of plasma uracil ([U]) is recommended prior to the administration of fluoropyrimidine-based chemotherapy. Cancer patients frequently have impaired kidney function, but the extent to which kidney function decline impacts [U] levels has not been comprehensively investigated. METHODS We assessed the relationship between DPD phenotypes and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) in 1751 patients who benefited on the same day from a screening for DPD deficiency by measuring [U] and [UH2]:[U], and an evaluation of eGFR. The impact of a kidney function decline on [U] levels and [UH2]:[U] ratio was evaluated. RESULTS We observed that [U] was negatively correlated with eGFR, indicating that [U] levels increase as eGFR declines. For each ml/min of eGFR decrease, [U] value increased in average by 0.035 ng/ml. Using the KDIGO classification of chronic kidney disease (CKD), we observed that [U] values >16 ng/ml (DPD deficiency) were measured in 3.6 % and 4.4 % of stage 1 and 2 CKD (normal-high eGFR, >60 ml/min/1.73m2) patients, but in 6.7 % of stage 3A CKD patients (45 to 59 ml/min/1.73m2), 25% of stage 3B CKD patients (30 to 44 ml/min/1.73m2), 22.7% of stage 4 CKD patients (15 to 29 ml/min/1.73m2 and 26.7% of stage 5 CKD patients (<15 ml/min/1.73m2). [UH2]:[U] ratios were not impacted by kidney function. CONCLUSION DPD phenotyping based on the measurement of plasma [U] in patients with decreased eGFR is associated with an exceedingly high rate of false positives when kidney function decline reaches 45 ml/minute/1.73m2 of eGFR or lower. In this population, an alternative strategy that remain to be evaluated would be to measure the [UH2]:[U] ratio in addition to [U].

Abstract
BACKGROUND The survival of hemodialysis (HD) patients with cancer is poor, which may be caused by undertreatment due to renal dysfunction. Particularly, adjuvant chemotherapy after surgery may be considered optional because of its preventive nature. This study investigated the current frequency of administration of adjuvant chemotherapy to HD patients compared with non-HD patients in Japan. METHODS We used data from the Hospital-Based Cancer Registries national database linked to health services utilization data to analyze cases of newly diagnosed colon cancer, gastric cancer, breast cancer, and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) at the stages where adjuvant chemotherapy is generally required. We compared the performance rate of adjuvant chemotherapy and the adjuvant chemotherapy regimens between HD and non-HD patients from October 2011 to December 2017. RESULTS Of the 99,761 patients who underwent curative surgery, 1207 (1%) were HD patients. HD patients received adjuvant chemotherapy less frequently than non-HD patients (24% vs. 63%, p < 0.001). After adjusting for potential confounders, HD remained negatively related to adjuvant chemotherapy administration for all four cancer types. Among all patients who received adjuvant chemotherapy 0(N = 61,873), HD patients were less likely to receive standard regimens and chemotherapy requiring dose adjustment than non-HD patients (88% vs. 95%, p < 0.001 and 92% vs. 98%, p < 0.001, respectively). This trend was particularly pronounced among patients with gastric cancer. CONCLUSIONS HD patients were less likely to receive adjuvant chemotherapy with standard regimens than non-HD patients.

Abstract
For patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD), peritoneal dialysis (PD) and hemodialysis (HD) are important renal replacement treatments. Patients on dialysis usually have a high incidence rate of malignant tumors. In 2020, breast cancer has become the malignant tumor with the highest incidence rate in the world. Human epidermal growth factor receptor-2-positive (HER-2+) breast cancer accounts for 20%-30% of the total breast cancer patients. It is highly invasive and has a poor prognosis. Anti-HER-2 treatment is an important therapy for this type of cancer. There are few case reports of anti-HER2-targeted therapy in dialysis patients. We report a 56-year-old Chinese woman with breast cancer (cT3N1MX, Her-2+/HR-). She underwent peritoneal dialysis for 11 years since she had suffered end-stage renal disease. The clinician prescribed the regimen (pyrotinib 320mg qd + capecitabine 1g bid D1-D14 Q3W). The tumor was significantly reduced after 1 month of single administration of pyrotinib, and partially relieved after 2 months of pyrotinib + capecitabine. The main side effects were grade II hand foot syndrome and grade II diarrhea. This case shows that the combination of pyrotinib and capecitabine has potential therapeutic benefits in HER-2+ breast cancer patients with end-stage renal disease.

Abstract
Introduction Glioblastoma multiforme is the most common and aggressive type of central nervous system tumor. We present a novel case of the challenges of dosing temozolomide in a patient with end stage renal disease on peritoneal hemodialysis with unpredictable clearance and toxicities. Case report In this case, a 60-year-old male with a past medical history of hypertension and Stage V chronic kidney disease presented with worsening confusion and word-finding difficulty in the emergency department. Magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated a large intra-axial mass within the posterior left frontal lobe measuring 4.5 × 4.1 × 3.5 cm with irregularly, predominant peripheral tumoral enhancement. Management and outcome The patient underwent a surgical resection which confirmed the diagnosis of glioblastoma (grade 4). The standard treatment for glioblastoma is 6 weeks of radiation therapy and daily temozolomide. Given his history of renal dysfunction and limited data on the safety of temozolomide in patients on hemodialysis (HD), the patient was administered dose-reduced temozolomide and closely monitored for toxicities. Temozolomide was successfully up-titrated to the full dose. Discussion Renal replacement therapy is a life-saving treatment for end-stage kidney disease patients. A stepwise increase in the dosage of temozolomide did not increase the risk of toxicity with HD. There are no studies with patients on temozolomide and peritoneal dialysis. Our case transitioned to peritoneal dialysis from HD without significant toxicity from temozolomide. As a more substantial proportion of the population becomes dialysis-dependent in the coming years, we need further studies to understand the safety profiles of chemotherapeutic agents in this complex subset of patients.

Abstract
Chemotherapy for classic Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL) patients on hemodialysis (HD) is an extremely challenging situation because pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic studies of most chemotherapeutics are lacking for the HD patient, and the small amount of evidence available comes mostly from case reports and small case series. In this review, we provide recommendations based on treatment experience of cHL patients on HD in the literature. HD patients undergoing chemotherapy are at risk of overdose and toxicities because many drugs are significantly eliminated by the kidneys, and at the same time, are at risk of undertreatment because many drugs are removed by HD. Therefore, dose modifications and timing of drug administration in relation to HD sessions must be carefully planned according to the distinct traits of each chemotherapeutic. We carried out an exhaustive literature review of reports of actual administrations of chemotherapeutics to cHL on HD, and also extrapolated data from reports of the same chemotherapeutics that were administered to HD patients with malignancies other than cHL. We summarized the information found in the literature, and provide practical and balanced recommendations concerning dose modifications and optimal timing of drug administration in relation to HD sessions for each chemotherapeutic. Chemotherapy regimens and individual chemotherapeutics studied in this review include ABVD (doxorubicin + bleomycin + vinblastine + dacarbazine), BEACOPP (bleomycin + etoposide + doxorubicin + cyclophosphamide + vincristine + procarbazine + prednisolone), MOPP (mechlorethamine + vincristine + procarbazine + prednisolone), gemcitabine, vinorelbine, brentuximab vedotin, and PD-1 inhibitors (nivolumab and pembrolizumab).

Abstract
The global incidence of colorectal cancer (CRC) in patients receiving hemodialysis is steadily rising. However, current information on the clinical use of chemotherapy for patients undergoing hemodialysis with CRC is limited. Herein, we describe a clinical course of a 74-year-old patient undergoing hemodialysis with unresectable CRC treated with folinic acid, 5-fluorouracil (5FU), and irinotecan (FOLFIRI) plus bevacizumab whose changes in serum bevacizumab concentration were analyzed. Treatment was initiated with a standard dosage of 5-FU and 80% of the standard dose of irinotecan to avoid any adverse events. However, neutropenia (grade 4) was observed after five treatment cycles, which prompted a dose reduction of 5-FU and irinotecan, after which treatment was safely completed. Progression-free survival of the patient was 7.5 months. Changes in serum bevacizumab concentration were similar to those documented in patients with normal renal function. In addition, no bevacizumab-related adverse events occurred. It was inferred that FOLFIRI plus bevacizumab therapy could be implemented as a safe and efficient treatment for patients undergoing hemodialysis with unresectable CRC. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of the analysis of serum bevacizumab concentrations in a patient undergoing hemodialysis with unresectable CRC.

Pretherapeutic screening for Dihydropyrimidine deshydrogenase deficiency in measuring uracilemia in dialysis patients leads to a high rate of falsely positive results. Cancer Chemother Pharmacol 2021; 88:1049-1053.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pretherapeutic screening for dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD) deficiency is recommended prior to the administration of fluoropyrimidine-based chemotherapy. However, the best strategy to identify DPD deficiency in End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) patients is unknown. METHODS We assessed the characteristics of both DPD phenotypes and DPYD genotypes in 20 dialyzed patients before and after dialysis session. The extent to which the concentrations of uracil [U] and dihydrouracil [UH2] were affected by dialysis was evaluated. RESULTS Mean [U] was 14 ± 3.3 ng/ml before the dialysis session, and 7.9 ± 2.7 ng/ml after. Notably, mean [U] in 119 non-ESRD patients during the same timeline was 8.7 ± 3.9 ng/ml, which is similar to [U] values after dialysis session (p = 0.38). [U] values > 16 ng/ml were measured in 4 ESRD patients (20%), whereas the rate was 3.3% in the non-ESRD cohort. Whole gene sequencing did not reveal DPYD deleterious allelic variants in the 4 ESRD patients with [U] values > 16 ng/ml. The profile of [UH2] values during dialysis was similar to that of [U]: 385 ± 86 ng/ml before, and 185 ± 62 ng/ml after (mean reduction rate 42.5%). Thus, [UH2]:[U] ratio remained unaffected by dialysis, and was similar to the values in non-ESRD patients (22.4 ± 7.1). CONCLUSION Phenotyping based on measuring plasma [U] before a dialysis sessions in ESRD patients is associated with an unacceptable high rate of false positives. The optimal strategy for the identification of patients with DPD deficiency in this population would be the monitor the [UH2]:[U] ratio, which remains unaffected.

Abstract
Chemotherapy for non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) in the hemodialysis (HD) patient is a challenging situation. Because many drugs are predominantly eliminated by the kidneys, chemotherapy in the HD patient requires special considerations concerning dose adjustments to avoid overdose and toxicities. Conversely, some drugs are removed by HD and may expose the patient to undertreatment, therefore the timing of drug administration in relation to HD sessions must be carefully planned. Also, the metabolites of some drugs show different toxicities and dialysability as compared with the parent drug, therefore this must also be catered for. However, the pharmacokinetics of many chemotherapeutics and their metabolites in HD patients are unknown, and the fact that NHL patients are often treated with distinct multiagent chemotherapy regimens makes the situation more complicated. In a realm where uncertainty prevails, case reports and case series reporting on actual treatment and outcomes are extremely valuable and can aid physicians in decision making from drug selection to dosing. We carried out an exhaustive review of the literature and adopted 48 manuscripts consisting of 66 HD patients undergoing 71 chemotherapy regimens for NHL, summarized the data, and provide recommendations concerning dose adjustments and timing of administration for individual chemotherapeutics where possible. The chemotherapy regimens studied in this review include, but are not limited to, rituximab, cyclophosphamide + vincristine + prednisolone (CVP) and cyclophosphamide + doxorubicin + vincristine + prednisolone (CHOP)-like regimens, chlorambucil, ibrutinib, bendamustine, methotrexate, platinum compounds, cytarabine, gemcitabine, etoposide, ifosfamide, melphalan, busulfan, fludarabine, mogamulizumab, brentuximab vedotin, and 90 Y-ibritumomab tiuxetan.

Abstract
Cisplatin is the first choice treatment in mediastinal germ cell tumors. However, concerns regarding increased toxicity of cisplatin hamper its administration in patients with impaired renal function. We describe a 42-year-old man with chronic kidney disease stage 4 who was diagnosed with a mediastinal germ cell tumor and metastases in lung and brain. Treatment with cisplatin-etoposide was considered essential for a chance of cure. In order to administer the full cisplatin dose, 4-hour hemodialysis sessions were performed after each cisplatin infusion. During treatment cycle 3, 4 and 5, total and unbound plasma platinum concentrations were measured. Trough concentrations and half-life were at the higher end of the range of those observed in patients with adequate renal function who received the same dose of cisplatin. Hemodialysis aided platinum clearance, although our patient was also able to clear some platinum by his own renal function. With this full dose treatment, our patient obtained a favorable tumor response, with a strong decrease of beta-human chorionic gonadotropin and tumor size. The side effects experienced by our patient were serious, although not worse than what could be expected with this type of treatment. His renal function remained stable during the treatment period.

Abstract
Transplantation of any organ has some inherent risk of disease transmission, such as infection and malignancy. The present study aims to describe 2 cases of choriocarcinoma transmission after kidney and liver transplantation originating from the same patient. The donor was a 17-year-old woman who died of cerebral hemorrhage. Both organ recipients died of metastatic choriocarcinoma few months after the transplantation, within days after starting chemotherapy. Retrospective hCG (human chorionic gonadotropin hormone) analysis in donor's blood stored at the time of donation had a result of 9324 mIU/mL. Despite its rarity, clinicians should be aware of the risk of transplant-related choriocarcinoma from female donors in childbearing age. In some cases, hCG dosage should be performed before donation.

Abstract
Purpose Hyperammonemia is an important adverse event associated with
5-fluorouracil (5FU) from 5FU metabolite accumulation. We present a case of an
advanced gastric cancer patient with chronic renal failure, who was treated with
5FU/leucovorin (LV) infusion chemotherapy (2-h infusion of LV and 5FU bolus followed
by 46-h 5FU continuous infusion on day 1; repeated every 2 weeks) and developed
hyperammonemia, with the aim of exploring an appropriate hemodialysis (HD) schedule
to resolve its symptoms. Methods The blood concentrations of 5FU and its metabolites, α-fluoro-β-alanine
(FBAL), and monofluoroacetate (FA) of a patient who had hyperammonemia from seven
courses of palliative 5FU/LV therapy for gastric cancer were measured by liquid
chromatography–mass spectrometry. Results On the third day of the first cycle, the patient presented with
symptomatic hyperammonemia relieved by emergency HD. Thereafter, the 5FU dose was
reduced; however, in cycles 2–4, the patient developed symptomatic hyperammonemia and
underwent HD on day 3 for hyperammonemia management. In cycles 5–7, the timing of
scheduled HD administration was changed from day 3 to day 2, preventing symptomatic
hyperammonemia. The maximum ammonia and 5FU metabolite levels were significantly
lower in cycles 5–7 than in cycles 2–4 (NH3 75 ± 38 vs 303 ± 119 μg/dL, FBAL
13.7 ± 2.5 vs 19.7 ± 2.0 μg/mL, FA 204.0 ± 91.6 vs 395.9 ± 12.6 ng/mL,
mean ± standard deviation, all p < 0.05). After
seven cycles, partial response was confirmed. Conclusion HD on day 2 instead of 3 may prevent hyperammonemia in 5FU/LV
therapy. Electronic supplementary material The online version of this article (10.1007/s00280-020-04158-1) contains supplementary material, which is available to authorized

Abstract
Breast cancer is the most common malignancy, affecting middle-age and older women frequently suffering from other chronic diseases, including chronic kidney disease. The risk of breast cancer development in women on renal replacement therapy (peritoneal dialysis and haemodialysis) is higher than in the general population. Chronic kidney disease does not limit surgical treatment or radiotherapy; however, it affects the pharmacokinetics of drugs used in the systematic treatment to a different extent, increasing their toxicity and the risk of adverse drug reactions. This article summarizes the current knowledge (published studies accessed through PUBMED) on drugs used in chemotherapy, hormone therapy, anti-HER2 drugs, CDK4/6 inhibitors, PARP inhibitors, and immune therapy in breast cancer patients undergoing dialysis. We discuss the data, the optimal choice of the chemotherapeutic protocol, and the administration of drugs in a specific time relation to the haemodialysis session to ensure the most effective and safe treatment to breast cancer patients.

Abstract
End-stage kidney disease (ESKD) affects the recommended screening, incidence, treatment, and mortality of cancer. Cancer occurring in a patient with ESKD can influence candidacy for kidney transplantation as well as dialysis decision-making and cancer treatment. Certain cancers are more common among ESKD patients, notably, viral-mediated cancers that are associated with human papilloma or hepatitis viruses, and urothelial cancers associated with analgesic and Balkan nephropathies. Solid tumors are not believed to occur more frequently in ESKD patients. The presence of ESKD may confer a higher risk of post-surgical complications as well as mortality. The cost-effectiveness of cancer screening depends upon individual cancer risk and estimated overall survival. The high mortality associated with ESKD argues against routine cancer screening in dialysis patients. Cancer treatment in ESKD may be complicated by the need to avoid, adjust doses of and/or coordinate the timing of administration of imaging contrast, chemotherapy, and immunotherapy with dialysis treatments. There is a general dearth of information on the treatment of cancer in ESKD patients. These issues will be discussed, and some general guidelines presented based upon the current literature.

Safety of radiotherapy for hemodialysis patients with cancer. Int J Clin Oncol 2020; 25:978-983. [PMID: 31965416 DOI: 10.1007/s10147-020-01621-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/18/2019] [Accepted: 01/07/2020] [Indexed: 10/25/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The number of hemodialysis (HD) patients is increasing worldwide, and they are at a higher risk of cancer than the general population. Because HD patients are more likely to have inflammation, radiotherapy (RT)-induced adverse effects (AEs) are theoretically expected to be worse for HD patients. Since only a few reports have been published on this subject, we aimed to evaluate the tolerability of RT in HD patients. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed AEs related to RT for HD patients. Our study included patients from three institutions treated between January 2007 and July 2017. The patient eligibility criteria were (i) receipt of maintenance HD 2-3 times per week for end-stage renal disease prior to the start of RT and (ii) pathologically confirmed malignancies. The endpoints were acute and late non-hematologic AEs. RESULTS The study included 56 patients. The most common histology was head and neck cancer (23%), followed by lung cancer (14%) and prostate cancer (11%). The median radiation dose was 60 (range, 12-93.8) Gy at an equivalent dose in 2-Gy fractions (EQD2). The RT completion rate was 96%. Patients had a median follow-up period after RT of 9.1 (range 0.5-98.1) months. Grade 3 or worse acute and late AEs were noted in 6 (11%) and 3 (7%) patients, respectively. In the acute phase, 2 patients had grade 5 AEs, both of which were infections. CONCLUSION Our results suggest that RT for HD patients is clinically tolerable. However, some patients can experience severe infections related to treatment.
