摘要

Background

Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) estimation is a key issue in determining cancer treatment eligibility and dosing of treatments with narrow therapeutic index. Yet, little is known about the accuracy of GFR estimation among people with cancer in routine care.

Methods

In a cross-sectional study including 1611 adults with cancer referred for 1837 determinations of measured GFR (mGFR), we assessed the accuracy of estimated GFR based on creatinine (eGFRcr), cystatin C (eGFRcys) and their combination (eGFRcr-cys). Accuracy was reported as percentage of patients with estimated values within 30% of mGFR; bias and precision as the median and interquartile range of eGFR-mGFR, respectively. Dosing accuracy was assessed by calculating expected dose of carboplatin for area under the curve of 5 mg/mL/min using the Calvert formula.

Results

Median age was 68 (IQI 61 to 74) years, 38.5% were female with mean mGFR 75 (SD 30) mL/min; 17% had metastatic disease. Accuracy, bias and precision were best for eGFRcr-cys. Using eGFRcr would recommend an “overdose” of carboplatin in 10–20% of participants: this was 3–4 times less common using eGFRcr-cys.

Conclusion

eGFRcr-cys equations provide the most accurate estimates of mGFR in patients with cancer, with potential to improve dosing accuracy substantially compared to eGFRcr.
