Cisplatin-based neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) in bladder cancer patients (Pts) with borderline renal function: Implications for clinical practice.
2017
390Background: Cisplatin-based NAC prior to cystectomy is a standard of care in muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC). There are limited data for pts with borderline glomerular filtration rate (GFR) who get cisplatin-based NAC. Methods: A retrospective review of pts who received cisplatin-based NAC at Cleveland Clinic (2005-2016) was done. Pts with pre-NAC GFR of 40-59 mL/min by either CG or MDRD formula (low GFR group; n = 17) were compared to pts with GFR ≥ 60 (nl GFR group; n = 74) for treatment-related toxicities and outcomes, such as pathologic complete (pCR, pT0N0) and partial response (pPR, 0, p < .05). Gender, race, hydronephrosis rates and TURBT features (stage, grade, LVI, CIS) did not differ. For NAC, 64 pts got Gem/Cis (49 normal GFR, 15 low GFR), 23 got M...
