Clinical features of acute kidney injury in patients receiving dabrafenib and trametinib.

BACKGROUND: Our objective was to characterize the incidence, risk factors and clinical features of acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients receiving dabrafenib and trametinib. METHODS: We performed a retrospective cohort study examining the kidney outcomes of patients in a large healthcare system who received dabrafenib/trametinib between 2010 and 2019. The primary outcome was AKI, defined as a 1.5-fold increase in serum creatinine from baseline within a 12-month study period. AKI severity and etiology was determined for each case by chart review. Logistic regression was used to evaluate baseline predictors of AKI. RESULTS: A total of 199 patients who received dabrafenib in our healthcare system from 2010 to 2019 were included in the analysis. Forty-two patients (21%) experienced AKI within 12 months; 10 patients (5% of the total cohort, 24% of AKI patients) experienced AKI occurring during a dabrafenib/trametinib-induced febrile syndrome characterized by fever, chills, gastrointestinal symptoms and elevated liver enzymes. Preexisting liver disease was the only significant predictor of AKI in the cohort. One patient had biopsy-proven granulomatous acute interstitial nephritis that resolved with corticosteroids. CONCLUSIONS: Oncologists and nephrologists should be aware that AKI is common after dabrafenib/trametinib and a substantial number of cases occur in the setting of treatment-induced pyrexia.

Hyponatremia and other electrolyte abnormalities in patients receiving immune checkpoint inhibitors.

BACKGROUND: Hyponatremia due to endocrinopathies such as adrenal insufficiency and hypothyroidism has been reported in patients receiving immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs). We determined the risk and predictors of hyponatremia and other electrolyte abnormalities in a 'real-world' sample of patients receiving ICIs to treat advanced malignancies. METHODS: This was a retrospective observational study of all patients who received ICIs from a single cancer center between 2011 and 2018. Patients were followed for 12 months after initiation of ICIs or until death. Common Terminology for Cancer Adverse Events version 5.0 criteria were used to grade the severity of hyponatremia and other electrolyte abnormalities. The predictors of severe (Grade 3 or 4) hyponatremia were determined using a multivariable logistic regression model. The etiology of Grade 3 or 4 hyponatremia was determined by chart review. RESULTS: A total of 2458 patients were included. Their average age was 64 years [standard deviation (SD) 13], 58% were male and 90% were white. In the first year after starting ICIs, 62% experienced hyponatremia (sodium <134 mEq/L) and 136 (6%) experienced severe hyponatremia (<124 mEq/L). Severe hyponatremia occurred on average 164 days (SD 100) after drug initiation. Only nine cases of severe hyponatremia were due to endocrinopathies (0.3% overall incidence). Risk factors for severe hyponatremia included ipilimumab (a cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen-4 inhibitor) use, diuretic use and non-White race. Other severe electrolyte abnormalities were also commonly observed: severe hypokalemia (potassium <3.0 mEq/L) occurred in 6%, severe hyperkalemia (potassium ≥6.1 mEq/L) occurred in 0.6%, severe hypophosphatemia (phosphorus <2 mg/dL) occurred in 17% and severe hypocalcemia (corrected calcium <7.0 mg/dL) occurred in 0.2%. CONCLUSIONS: Hyponatremia is common in cancer patients receiving ICIs. However, endocrinopathies are an uncommon cause of severe hyponatremia.

Breast Implant-associated Anaplastic Large Cell Lymphoma Incidence: Determining an Accurate Risk.

OBJECTIVE: This study sought to estimate the incidence and incidence rate of breast implant-associated anaplastic large cell lymphoma (BIA-ALCL) at a high-volume single institution, which enables vigorous long-term follow-up and implant tracking for more accurate estimates. SUMMARY BACKGROUND DATA: The reported incidence of BIA-ALCL is highly variable, ranging from 1 in 355 to 1 in 30,000 patients, demonstrating a need for more accurate estimates. METHODS: All patients who underwent implant-based breast reconstruction from 1991 to 2017 were retrospectively identified. The incidence and incidence rate of BIA-ALCL were estimated per patient and per implant. A time-to-event analysis was performed using the Kaplan-Meier estimator and life table. RESULTS: During the 26-year study period, 9373 patients underwent reconstruction with 16,065 implants, of which 9589 (59.7%) were textured. Eleven patients were diagnosed with BIA-ALCL, all of whom had a history of textured implants. The overall incidence of BIA-ALCL was 1.79 per 1000 patients (1 in 559) with textured implants and 1.15 per 1000 textured implants (1 in 871), with a median time to diagnosis of 10.3 years (range, 6.4-15.5 yrs). Time-to-event analysis demonstrated a BIA-ALCL cumulative incidence of 0 at up to 6 years, increasing to 4.4 per 1000 patients at 10 to 12 years and 9.4 per 1000 patients at 14 to 16 years, although a sensitivity analysis showed loss to follow-up may have skewed these estimates. CONCLUSIONS: BIA-ALCL incidence and incidence rates may be higher than previous epidemiological estimates, with incidence increasing over time, particularly in patients exposed to textured implants for longer than 10 years.

Organ Preservation and Survival by Clinical Response Grade in Patients With Rectal Cancer Treated With Total Neoadjuvant Therapy: A Secondary Analysis of the OPRA Randomized Clinical Trial.

Importance: Assessing clinical tumor response following completion of total neoadjuvant therapy (TNT) in patients with locally advanced rectal cancer is paramount to select patients for watch-and-wait treatment. Objective: To assess organ preservation (OP) and oncologic outcomes according to clinical tumor response grade. Design, Setting, and Participants: This was secondary analysis of the Organ Preservation in Patients with Rectal Adenocarcinoma trial, a phase 2, nonblinded, multicenter, randomized clinical trial. Randomization occurred between April 2014 and March 2020. Eligible participants included patients with stage II or III rectal adenocarcinoma. Data analysis occurred from March 2022 to July 2023. Intervention: Patients were randomized to induction chemotherapy followed by chemoradiation or chemoradiation followed by consolidation chemotherapy. Tumor response was assessed 8 (±4) weeks after TNT by digital rectal examination and endoscopy and categorized by clinical tumor response grade. A 3-tier grading schema that stratifies clinical tumor response into clinical complete response (CCR), near complete response (NCR), and incomplete clinical response (ICR) was devised to maximize patient eligibility for OP. Main Outcomes and Measures: OP and survival rates by clinical tumor response grade were analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier method and log-rank test. Results: There were 304 eligible patients, including 125 patients with a CCR (median [IQR] age, 60.6 [50.4-68.0] years; 76 male [60.8%]), 114 with an NCR (median [IQR] age, 57.6 [49.1-67.9] years; 80 male [70.2%]), and 65 with an ICR (median [IQR] age, 55.5 [47.7-64.2] years; 41 male [63.1%]) based on endoscopic imaging. Age, sex, tumor distance from the anal verge, pathological tumor classification, and clinical nodal classification were similar among the clinical tumor response grades. Median (IQR) follow-up for patients with OP was 4.09 (2.99-4.93) years. The 3-year probability of OP was 77% (95% CI, 70%-85%) for patients with a CCR and 40% (95% CI, 32%-51%) for patients with an NCR (P < .001). Clinical tumor response grade was associated with disease-free survival, local recurrence-free survival, distant metastasis-free survival, and overall survival. Conclusions and Relevance: In this secondary analysis of a randomized clinical trial, most patients with a CCR after TNT achieved OP, with few developing tumor regrowth. Although the probability of tumor regrowth was higher for patients with an NCR compared with patients with a CCR, a significant proportion of patients achieved OP. These findings suggest the 3-tier grading schema can be used to estimate recurrence and survival outcomes in patients with locally advanced rectal cancer who receive TNT.

EGFR exon 19 insertion EGFR-K745_E746insIPVAIK and others with rare XPVAIK amino-acid insertions: Preclinical and clinical characterization of the favorable therapeutic window to all classes of approved EGFR kinase inhibitors.

BACKGROUND: The epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-K745_E746insIPVAIK and others with XPVAIK amino-acid insertions are exon 19 insertion mutations, which, at the structural modeling level, resemble EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI)-sensitizing mutants. An important unmet need is the characterization of therapeutic windows plus clinical outcomes of exon 19 XPVAIK amino-acid insertion mutations to available EGFR TKIs. METHODS: We used preclinical models of EGFR-K745_E746insIPVAIK and more typical EGFR mutations (exon 19 deletion, L858R, L861Q, G719S, A763_Y764insFQEA, other exon 20 insertion mutations) to probe representative 1st (erlotinib), 2nd (afatinib), 3rd generation (osimertinib), and EGFR exon 20 insertion active (mobocertinib) TKIs. We also compiled outcomes of EGFR exon 19 insertion mutated lung cancers-from our institution plus the literature-treated with EGFR TKIs. RESULTS: Exon 19 insertions represented 0.3-0.8% of all EGFR kinase domain mutation in two cohorts (n = 1772). Cells driven by EGFR-K745_E746insIPVAIK had sensitivity to all classes of approved EGFR TKIs when compared to cells driven by EGFR-WT in proliferation assays and at the protein level. However, the therapeutic window of EGFR-K745_E746insIPVAIK driven cells was most akin to those of cells driven by EGFR-L861Q and EGFR-A763_Y764insFQEA than the more sensitive patterns seen with cells driven by an EGFR exon 19 deletion or EGFR-L858R. The majority (69.2%, n = 26) of patients with lung cancers harboring EGFR-K745_E746insIPVAIK and other mutations with rare XPVAIK amino-acid insertions responded to clinically available EGFR TKIs (including icotinib, gefitinib, erlotinib, afatinib and osimertinib), with heterogeneous periods of progression-free survival. Mechanisms of acquired EGFR TKI resistance of this mutant remained underreported. CONCLUSIONS: This is the largest preclinical/clinical report to highlight that EGFR-K745_E746insIPVAIK and other mutations with exon 19 XPVAIK amino-acid insertions are rare but sensitive to clinically available 1st, 2nd, and 3rd generation as well as EGFR exon 20 active TKIs; in a pattern that mostly resembles the outcomes of models with EGFR-L861Q and EGFR-A763_Y764insFQEA mutations. These data may help with the off-label selection of EGFR TKIs and clinical expectations of outcomes when targeted therapy is deployed for these EGFR mutated lung cancers.

Parenting Perfectionism and Parental Adjustment.

The parental role is expected to be one of the most gratifying and rewarding roles in life. As expectations of parenting become ever higher, the implications of parenting perfectionism for parental adjustment warrant investigation. Using longitudinal data from 182 couples, this study examined the associations between societal- and self-oriented parenting perfectionism and new mothers' and fathers' parenting self-efficacy, stress, and satisfaction. For mothers, societal-oriented parenting perfectionism was associated with lower parenting self-efficacy, but self-oriented parenting perfectionism was associated with higher parenting satisfaction. For fathers, societal-oriented parenting perfectionism was associated with higher parenting stress, whereas higher levels of self-oriented parenting perfectionism were associated with higher parenting self-efficacy, lower parenting stress, and greater parenting satisfaction. These findings support the distinction between societal- and self-oriented perfectionism, extend research on perfectionism to interpersonal adjustment in the parenting domain, and provide the first evidence for the potential consequences of holding excessively high standards for parenting.

One-Year Outcomes of the Multi-Center StudY to Transplant Hepatitis C-InfeCted kidneys (MYTHIC) Trial.

INTRODUCTION: Transplanting kidneys from hepatitis C virus (HCV) viremic donors into HCV-negative patients (HCV D-RNA-positive/R-negative) has evolved from experimental to "standard-of-care" at many centers. Nevertheless, most data derive from single centers and provide only short-term follow-up. METHODS: The Multicenter Study to Transplant Hepatitis C-Infected Kidneys (MYTHIC) study was a multicenter (7 sites) trial of HCV D-RNA-positive/R-negative kidney transplantation (KT) followed by 8 weeks of glecaprevir/pibrentasvir (G/P) initiated 2 to 5 days post-KT. Prespecified outcomes included probability of KT (vs. matched waitlist comparators) and 1-year safety outcomes, allograft function, and survival. RESULTS: Among 63 enrolled patients, 1-year cumulative incidence of KT was approximately 3.5-fold greater for the MYTHIC cohort versus 2055 matched United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS) comparators who did not opt-in to receive a kidney from an HCV-viremic donor (68% vs. 19%, P < 0.0001). Of 30 HCV D-RNA-positive/R-negative KT recipients, all achieved HCV cure. None developed clinically significant liver disease or HCV-related kidney injury. Furthermore, 1-year survival was 93% and 1-year graft function was excellent (median creatinine 1.17; interquartile range [IQR]: 1.02-1.38 mg/dl). There were 4 cases of cytomegalovirus (CMV) disease among 10 CMV-negative patients transplanted with a kidney from an HCV-viremic/CMV-positive donor. CONCLUSION: The 1-year findings from this multicenter trial suggest that opting-in for HCV-viremic KT offers can increase probability of KT with excellent 1-year outcomes. Trial Registration: NCT03781726.

Organ Preservation in Patients With Rectal Adenocarcinoma Treated With Total Neoadjuvant Therapy.

PURPOSE: Prospective data on the efficacy of a watch-and-wait strategy to achieve organ preservation in patients with locally advanced rectal cancer treated with total neoadjuvant therapy are limited. METHODS: In this prospective, randomized phase II trial, we assessed the outcomes of 324 patients with stage II or III rectal adenocarcinoma treated with induction chemotherapy followed by chemoradiotherapy (INCT-CRT) or chemoradiotherapy followed by consolidation chemotherapy (CRT-CNCT) and either total mesorectal excision (TME) or watch-and-wait on the basis of tumor response. Patients in both groups received 4 months of infusional fluorouracil-leucovorin-oxaliplatin or capecitabine-oxaliplatin and 5,000 to 5,600 cGy of radiation combined with either continuous infusion fluorouracil or capecitabine during radiotherapy. The trial was designed as two stand-alone studies with disease-free survival (DFS) as the primary end point for both groups, with a comparison to a null hypothesis on the basis of historical data. The secondary end point was TME-free survival. RESULTS: Median follow-up was 3 years. Three-year DFS was 76% (95% CI, 69 to 84) for the INCT-CRT group and 76% (95% CI, 69 to 83) for the CRT-CNCT group, in line with the 3-year DFS rate (75%) observed historically. Three-year TME-free survival was 41% (95% CI, 33 to 50) in the INCT-CRT group and 53% (95% CI, 45 to 62) in the CRT-CNCT group. No differences were found between groups in local recurrence-free survival, distant metastasis-free survival, or overall survival. Patients who underwent TME after restaging and patients who underwent TME after regrowth had similar DFS rates. CONCLUSION: Organ preservation is achievable in half of the patients with rectal cancer treated with total neoadjuvant therapy, without an apparent detriment in survival, compared with historical controls treated with chemoradiotherapy, TME, and postoperative chemotherapy.

Curative Therapies for Hepatitis C Virus Infection in Patients with Kidney Disease.

Through the discovery of direct-acting antiviral therapies over the last decade, hepatitis C virus (HCV) has been transformed from a highly morbid and potentially fatal chronic viral infection to a curable illness. HCV is common in patients with kidney disease, is a risk factor for progression of CKD, is associated with higher morbidity and mortality in patients receiving dialysis, and leads to worse allograft and patient outcomes in recipients of kidney transplants. Clinical trial and real-world data of direct-acting antivirals in patients with kidney disease demonstrate extremely high cure rates and favorable adverse event profiles. This review covers the transformative effects of curative HCV therapies on patients with kidney disease, including patients with CKD, ESKD, and those who have received a kidney transplant.

Chronic Kidney Disease in Cancer Survivors.

As breakthroughs in cancer care are leading to improved long-term outcomes in a subset of advanced cancers, there is a growing population of long-term cancer survivors that are at risk of long-term complications. In this review, we summarize what is known about chronic kidney disease in cancer survivors, focusing on the following high-risk groups: survivors of childhood cancers, stem cell transplant recipients, patients with renal cell carcinoma, patients exposed to cisplatin and other nephrotoxic chemotherapies, and patients receiving immunotherapy for cancer. As new anticancer therapies are developed, more research is needed to understand the long-term risks of kidney function decline and to devise methods to prevent chronic kidney disease.

Acute Kidney Injury Incidence, Recovery, and Long-term Kidney Outcomes Among Hospitalized Patients With COVID-19 and Influenza.

INTRODUCTION: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication in patients with severe COVID-19. We sought to compare the AKI incidence and outcomes among patients hospitalized with COVID-19 and with influenza. METHODS: This was a retrospective cohort study of patients with COVID-19 hospitalized between March and May 2020 and historical controls hospitalized with influenza A or B between January 2017 and December 2019 within a large health care system. Cox proportional hazards models were used to compare the risk of AKI during hospitalization. Secondary outcomes included AKI recovery, mortality, new-onset chronic kidney disease (CKD), and ≥25% estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) decline. RESULTS: A total of 2425 patients were included; 1091 (45%) had COVID-19, and 1334 (55%) had influenza. The overall AKI rate was 23% and 13% in patients with COVID-19 and influenza, respectively. Compared with influenza, hospitalized patients with COVID-19 had an increased risk of developing AKI (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR] = 1.58; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.29-1.94). Patients with AKI were more likely to die in the hospital when infected with COVID-19 versus influenza (aHR = 3.55; 95% CI, 2.11-5.97). Among patients surviving to hospital discharge, the rate of AKI recovery was lower in patients with COVID-19 (aHR = 0.47; 95% CI, 0.36-0.62); however, among patients followed for ≥90 days, new-onset CKD (aHR = 1.24; 95% CI, 0.86-1.78) and ≥25% eGFR decline at the last follow-up (aHR = 1.36, 95% CI, 0.97-1.90) were not significantly different between the cohorts. CONCLUSION: AKI and mortality rates are significantly higher in patients with COVID-19 than influenza; however, kidney recovery among long-term survivors appears to be similar.

Rapid corticosteroid taper versus standard of care for immune checkpoint inhibitor induced nephritis: a single-center retrospective cohort study.

BACKGROUND: Current guidelines for treatment of immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI)-induced nephritis are not evidence based and may lead to excess corticosteroid exposure. We aimed to compare a rapid corticosteroid taper to standard of care. METHODS: Retrospective cohort study in patients with ICI-induced nephritis comparing a rapid taper beginning with 60 mg/day prednisone and tapered to 10 mg within 3 weeks to a historical control group that began 60 mg/day tapered to 10 mg within 6 weeks (standard of care). Renal recovery was defined as creatinine returning to within 1.5-fold baseline. The log-rank test compared the differences in time to renal recovery between the groups. We report rates of renal recovery at 30, 60 and 90 days, and timing and outcomes of ICI rechallenge. RESULTS: Thirteen patients received rapid corticosteroid taper and 14 patients received standard of care. Baseline characteristics were similar between groups. The median time to ≤10 mg/day prednisone was 20 days (IQR 15-25) in the rapid-taper group compared with 38 days (IQR 30-58) in the standard-of-care group. There was no significant difference in the time to renal recovery between the groups, though numerically higher numbers of patients recovered by 30 days, 11 (85%) in the rapid-taper arm versus 6 (46%) in the standard of care arm. Exposure to other nephritis-causing medications (proton pump inhibitor or trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole) during the corticosteroid taper was more common in the standard of care group, 9 (64%) versus rapid-taper group, 2 (15%), and was associated with longer time to renal recovery, 20 days (IQR 14-101) versus 13 days (IQR 7-34) in those that discontinued nephritis-causing medications. Fifteen (56%) of patients were rechallenged with ICIs, and only two (13%) developed recurrent nephritis. CONCLUSIONS: Patients with ICI-induced nephritis have excellent kidney outcomes when treated with corticosteroids that are tapered over 3 weeks.

Pilot Study of Anti-Th2 Immunotherapy for the Treatment of Breast Cancer-Related Upper Extremity Lymphedema.

Recent studies suggest that Th2 cells play a key role in the pathology of secondary lymphedema by elaborating cytokines such as IL4 and IL13. The aim of this study was to test the efficacy of QBX258, a monoclonal IL4/IL13 neutralizing antibody, in women with breast cancer-related lymphedema (BCRL). We enrolled nine women with unilateral stage I/II BCRL and treated them once monthly with intravenous infusions of QBX258 for 4 months. We measured limb volumes, bioimpedance, and skin tonometry, and analyzed the quality of life (QOL) using a validated lymphedema questionnaire (Upper Limb Lymphedema 27, ULL-27) before treatment, immediately after treatment, and 4 months following treatment withdrawal. We also obtained 5 mm skin biopsies from the normal and lymphedematous limbs before and after treatment. Treatment was well-tolerated; however, one patient with a history of cellulitis developed cellulitis during the trial and was excluded from further analysis. We found no differences in limb volumes or bioimpedance measurements after drug treatment. However, QBX258 treatment improved skin stiffness (p < 0.001) and improved QOL measurements (Physical p < 0.05, Social p = 0.01). These improvements returned to baseline after treatment withdrawal. Histologically, treatment decreased epidermal thickness, the number of proliferating keratinocytes, type III collagen deposition, infiltration of mast cells, and the expression of Th2-inducing cytokines in the lymphedematous skin. Our limited study suggests that immunotherapy against Th2 cytokines may improve skin changes and QOL of women with BCRL. This treatment appears to be less effective for decreasing limb volumes; however, additional studies are needed.

Smooth versus Textured Implant Breast Reconstruction: Patient-Reported Outcomes and Complications.

BACKGROUND: The association between textured surface breast implants and breast implant-associated anaplastic large cell lymphoma has led to an increase in surgical procedures to exchange textured devices to smooth surface implants. Because patient satisfaction is an integral part of breast reconstruction, the purpose of this study was to compare patient-reported outcomes between smooth and textured implant recipients. METHODS: Patients aged 18 years or older who underwent implant-based postmastectomy breast reconstruction with either smooth or textured devices from 2009 to 2017 and completed the BREAST-Q patient-reported outcome measure following reconstruction were included in this analysis. The primary outcomes of interest were mean and median BREAST-Q scores and postoperative complications. RESULTS: Overall, 1077 patients were included-785 who underwent breast reconstruction with smooth implants and 292 who underwent breast reconstruction with textured implants. No statistical differences were observed between the textured and smooth implant groups for any of the BREAST-Q domain scores at any of the early (3-month) to late (2-year) postoperative time points. Smooth implant recipients reported significantly more rippling (p = 0.003) than textured implant recipients. In contrast, textured implant recipients had a higher rate of cellulitis than smooth implant recipients (p = 0.016). CONCLUSIONS: These data suggest that postoperative satisfaction with breasts or health-related quality of life following immediate postmastectomy implant-based breast reconstruction is likely independent of implant surface type. However, smooth breast implants may result in more rippling. The authors' findings represent an important aid in counseling patients who have questions about the risks and benefits of replacing their textured implants with smooth surface devices. CLINICAL QUESTION/LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Therapeutic, III.

Immune-related adverse events and kidney function decline in patients with genitourinary cancers treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors.

BACKGROUND: In patients with genitourinary cancers, the effect of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) on kidney function is unknown. PATIENTS AND METHODS: This is a retrospective cohort study of patients with renal cell carcinoma (RCC) and urothelial carcinoma who received ICIs at two major cancer centers between 2012 and 2018. Cumulative incidence and Fine and Gray subdistribution hazard models were performed to determine predictors of the co-primary outcomes, (1) acute kidney injury (AKI) and (2) sustained estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) loss, defined as a >20% decline in eGFR sustained ≥90 days. We also determined the association between immune-related adverse events (irAE) and adverse kidney outcomes among patients surviving ≥1 year. RESULTS: 637 patients were included; 320 (50%) patients had RCC and 317 (50%) patients had urothelial carcinoma. Half of the cohort had eGFR<60 mL/min/1.73 m2 at baseline. irAEs, AKI, and sustained eGFR loss were common, occurring in 33%, 25% and 16%, respectively. Compared to patients with urothelial carcinoma, patients with RCC were more likely to develop irAEs (aHR 1.61, 95% CI 1.20-2.18) and sustained eGFR loss (aHR 1.97, 95% CI 1.24-3.12), but not AKI (aHR 1.53, 95% CI 0.97-2.41). Among patients surviving ≥1 years, experiencing a non-renal irAE was associated with a significantly higher risk of sustained eGFR loss (aHR 1.71, 95% CI 1.14-2.57). CONCLUSION: AKI and sustained eGFR loss are common in patients with genitourinary cancers receiving ICIs. irAEs may be a novel risk factor for kidney function decline among patients receiving ICIs.
