Abstract
Nephrotoxicity is one of the most important complications in cancer patients. In particular, acute kidney injury (AKI) is known to be associated with discontinuing effective oncological treatments, longer hospitalizations, increased costs, and a higher risk of death. In addition to acute kidney injury, clinical signs associated with nephrotoxicity during treatment with anticancer agents include chronic kidney disease, proteinuria, hypertension, electrolyte abnormalities, and other characteristic manifestations. Many of these signs are caused both by cancer treatment as well as by cancer itself. Therefore, it is important to carefully recognize whether the underlying causes of renal impairment in cancer patients are cancer-related, treatment-related, or both. This review describes the epidemiology and pathophysiology of anticancer agent-induced acute kidney injury, proteinuria, hypertension, and other characteristic manifestations.

Abstract
AbstractRadiation recall phenomenon (RRP) is an acute inflammatory reaction manifested in the previously irradiated tissues after the administration of various pharmacologic compounds. While skin manifestations are the most common clinical features, patients may also present with visceral recall events including pneumonitis, hematuria, myopathy, and mucositis if any particular organ was exposed to the prior radiation portals. This article has reviewed the published case reports, case series, abstracts, and poster presentations in the past 10 years in any language on RRP caused by various novel cytotoxic drugs including immunotherapies, molecularly targeted agents, and unconventional chemotherapies. We retrieved the data through the literature search of MEDLINE and PubMed using the keywords “radiation,” “recall,” “targeted therapy,” and “immunotherapy,” and references identified in retrieved articles were also used for further search of the literature. With the increasing use of unconventional, novel cytotoxic agents and targeted molecules, concurrent or sequentially with radiation, we expect more incidences of RRP in future that may present with either dermatological or visceral recall reactions.

Abstract
Advances in the management of hematologic malignancies and solid tumors have given rise to diverse modalities to treat cancer other than cytotoxic chemotherapy, including targeted therapies, immunotherapies, and cellular therapies. Currently, there are over 175 FDA-approved antineoplastic agents in the United States, many with a diverse and profound toxicity profile. Complications of antineoplastic therapy may result in the need for intensive care unit (ICU) admission to provide acute symptom management. Accordingly, ICU providers caring for cancer patients should have a working knowledge of the toxicities and complications associated with antineoplastic therapy.

Abstract
Background Haematuria and pelvic pain are recognized and documented adverse reactions related to Cabazitaxel use. To date there has not been any documentation of imaging findings in patients with this presentation. Cases We report a case series of five patients who experienced these symptoms while on Cabazitaxel and were all found to have very similar urothelial changes on CT. The patients were noted to have ureteric and renal pelvic dilatation along with urothelial enhancement (in those who had post contrast imaging). All of these changes were noted to be reversible in those who had follow up imaging after cessation of Cabazitaxel and initiation of a short course of steroids. Conclusion This case series helps demonstrate the pathological reversible urothelial inflammatory changes that may be occurring in patients experiencing haematuria and pelvic pain on Cabazitaxel therapy. These changes may relate to direct toxic effect of drug metabolites, a radiation recall type phenomenon or a combination of both.

Safety of Same-day Pegfilgrastim Administration in Metastatic Castration-resistant Prostate Cancer Treated With Cabazitaxel With or Without Carboplatin. Clin Genitourin Cancer 2016; 15:e429-e435. [PMID: 28038931 DOI: 10.1016/j.clgc.2016.12.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/18/2016] [Revised: 11/17/2016] [Accepted: 12/03/2016] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Although myeloid growth factors are commonly used to treat metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC), the optimal timing of administration has not been well studied. We assessed the effects of same-day pegfilgrastim, a neutrophil stimulator, after cabazitaxel treatment with or without carboplatin in patients with mCRPC. We also evaluated the frequency of urinary tract inflammation during treatment. PATIENTS AND METHODS Between September 2010 and September 2014, 151 consecutive patients with mCRPC underwent cabazitaxel treatment with or without the addition of carboplatin at a single institution. We assessed absolute neutrophil count recovery, incidence of neutropenia, neutropenic fever, antibiotic usage, treatment delays or discontinuation, dose reduction, and hospitalization with pegfilgrastim administration. Radiologists blinded to therapy reviewed computed tomography scans to detect urinary tract inflammation. RESULTS The median patient age was 69 years (range, 41-88 years); 78% of patients were white, and 54% had a Gleason score ≥ 9. Median overall survival was 9 months (95% confidence interval, 8-11 months). One patient (< 1%) had neutropenia; 38 patients (25%) had infection. During cycle 1, a significantly higher proportion of patients receiving pegfilgrastim after 24 hours developed infection than did those receiving pegfilgrastim the same day (26% vs. 6%; P = .01). CONCLUSION Same-day pegfilgrastim administration after cabazitaxel treatment with or without carboplatin in patients with mCRPC is feasible. The urinary tract inflammation rate (21%) was higher than that reported anecdotally. Results need to be prospectively validated.

A case of hemorrhagic cystitis caused by nab-paclitaxel. Int Cancer Conf J 2016; 5:187-191. [PMID: 31149452 DOI: 10.1007/s13691-016-0255-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/08/2016] [Accepted: 07/11/2016] [Indexed: 10/21/2022] Open
Abstract
Nab-paclitaxel (nab-PTX) is a nanoparticle albumin-bound paclitaxel and, as such, is free of solvents like ethanol and polyoxyethylene castor oil. The absence of solvents from this formulation has several practical advantages: it has a shorter infusion time, it negates the need for premedications for hypersensitivity reactions, and it can be administered to patients with alcoholic hypersensitivity. It is thought that nab-paclitaxel will be in widespread use in the near future because of its convenience and efficacy. Here, we report the case of a breast cancer patient who developed hemorrhagic cystitis potentially due to treatment with nab-paclitaxel. The patient was 69-year old lady with stage IIB left breast cancer. She was due to undergo neoadjuvant chemotherapy and started weekly treatment with nab-paclitaxel. On the second day of the first cycle of treatment, she experienced symptoms of cystitis, but was not hemorrhagic and the symptoms were managed with antibiotics. After the third cycle, the symptoms of cystitis became severe, and she was diagnosed with hemorrhagic cystitis and discontinued chemotherapy with nab-paclitaxel. This is the first case report of hemorrhagic cystitis associated with nab-paclitaxel.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Nephrotoxicity is a common adverse effect of many chemotherapeutic agents. The agents most commonly associated with chemotherapy-associated nephrotoxicity are methotrexate, semustine, streptozocin, mithramycin, and cisplatin. Certain chemotherapeutic agents have adverse effects on the kidneys and urothelium that can be visualized radiographically, including cystic change, interstitial nephritis, papillary necrosis, urothelial changes, haemorrhagic cystitis, acute tubular necrosis, and infarction. This review focuses on imaging features identifying complications of chemotherapy in the kidneys and collecting system and provides didactic cases to alert referring clinicians. TEACHING POINTS • Nephrotoxicity is a common adverse effect of many chemotherapeutic agents. • Chemotherapies have adverse renal and urothelial effects that can be visualized radiographically. • Crizotinib use can result in the development of complex renal cysts.
