ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND/AIM:
Hypertension occurs frequently in patients taking pazopanib. Therefore, this study aimed to clarify the predictive factors for pazopanib-induced hypertension. PATIENTS ANDMETHODS:
In total, 47 patients who started pazopanib treatment for renal cell carcinoma or soft tissue sarcoma during hospitalization at Kurume University Hospital from November 2012 to February 2020 were included in the study. Patient background factors associated with pazopanib-induced hypertension were analyzed using a logistic regression model. Subsequently, a time-dependent receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis was performed to evaluate changes in the predictive performance of predictors of pazopanib-induced hypertension over time.RESULTS:
Logistic regression analysis showed that total bilirubin (t-bil) and sex are predictors of pazopanib-induced hypertension, along with systolic blood pressure (SBP) before pazopanib introduction. Additionally, evaluation of area under the curve (AUC) changes over time during the first 20 days of pazopanib treatment using time-dependent ROC showed that the AUC tended to be higher in the first half for SBP and in the second half for t-bil. Moreover, models including these two factors (SBP+t-bil and SBP+t-bil+sex) maintained a higher AUC from the early to late stages of the treatment period.CONCLUSION:
Total bilirubin and sex can serve as predictors of pazopanib-induced hypertension. Total bilirubin may contribute to the prediction of the development of hypertension after day 5.Key words
