RESUMEN
Febrile neutropenia (FN) is a common and potentially fatal adverse drug reaction of cisplatin-based chemotherapy (CDDPBC) in pediatric patients. Hence, the aim of this study was to determine the incidence and independent risk factors for FN in pediatric patients with solid tumors treated with CDPPBC. Cohort integration was performed in the first cycle of chemotherapy with CDDPBC and patients were followed up to 6 months after the last cycle. FN was defined according to the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events. Relative risks were calculated with confidence intervals at 95% (95% CI) to determine FN risk factors. Multiple logistic regression was performed to identify independent risk factors. One hundred and thirty-nine pediatric patients (median age 7.4 y, range 0.08 to 17 y) were included in the study. FN incidence was 62.5%. Independent risk factors for FN were chemotherapy regimens including anthracyclines (odds ratio [OR]=19.44 [95% CI, 5.40-70.02), hypomagnesaemia (OR=8.20 [95% CI, 1.81-37.14]), and radiotherapy (OR=6.67 [95% CI, 1.24-35.94]). It is therefore concluded that anthracyclines-containing regimens, hypomagnesaemia, and radiotherapy are independent risk factors for FN in patients receiving CDDPBC.

Background: The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between well-defined genetic risk variants in SLC28A3, RARG and UGT1A6 and anthracycline-induced cardiotoxicity in Mexican pediatric patients. Methods: We tested a cohort of 79 children treated with anthracyclines for the presence of SLC28A3-rs7853758, RARG-rs2229774 and UGT1A6-rs17863783. Results: The SLC28A3-rs7853758 variant was more frequent in this cohort, while the UGT1A6-rs17863783 and RARG-rs2229774 variants were present at lower frequencies. A clinically important decrease of fractional shortening was associated with SLC28A3-rs7853758 variant. Conclusion: In this cohort, 39.2% of patients carried the protective SLC28A3 variant. A small number of tested patients have the risk variants of UGT1A6 and RARG. None of the patients shared the two risk variants.
