ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Anti-vascular endothelial growth factor monoclonal antibody (anti-VEGF) or immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) combined with chemotherapy are commonly administered to cancer patients. Although cancer patients receiving anti-VEGF or ICIs have been reported to experience an increased risk of acute kidney injury (AKI), comparative studies on the AKI incidence have not been evaluated.METHODS:
Cancer patients receiving anti-VEGF or ICIs were retrospectively selected from the hospital information system of the First Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University between Jan, 2020 and Dec, 2022 and were divided into two groups according to the treatment regimen anti-VEGF group and ICIs group. The baseline characteristics were propensity-score matched. The primary outcome was sustained AKI. A comparison of cumulative incidence of sustained AKI was performed by Kaplan-Meier curves and log-rank test. Risks for outcomes were assessed using Cox proportional regression.RESULTS:
A total of 1581 cancer patients receiving anti-VEGF (n = 696) or ICIs (n = 885) were included in the primary analysis. The ICIs group had a higher cumulative incidence of sustained AKI within one year than the anti-VEGF group (26.8% vs. 17.8%, P < 0.001). Among 1392 propensity score matched patients, ICIs therapy (n = 696) was associated with an increased risk of sustained AKI events in the entire population (HR 2.0; 95%CI 1.3 to 2.5; P = 0.001) and especially in those with genitourinary cancer (HR 4.2; 95%CI 1.3 to 13.2; P = 0.015). Baseline serum albumin level (> 35 g/l) was an important risk factor for a lower incidence of sustained AKI in the anti-VEGF group (HR 0.5; 95%CI 0.3 to 0.9; P = 0.027) and the ICIs group (HR 0.3; 95%CI 0.2 to 0.5; P < 0.001).CONCLUSIONS:
Among cancer patients in this real-world study, treatment with ICIs increased incidence of sustained AKI in one year. Baseline serum albumin level was an important risk factor for sustained AKI. The risk factors for sustained AKI differed between the anti-VEGF group and the ICIs group. TRIAL REGISTRATION The study has been registered at ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT06119347) on 11/06/2023.Palavras-chave
