Sunitinib and sorafenib in metastatic renal cell carcinoma patients with renal insufficiency

Abstract: Sunitinib and sorafenib can be safely given to patients with renal insufficiency, provided adequate monitoring of renal function. For those patients developing an increase in Cr, dose modifications may be required to allow continuation of therapy. The clinical outcome of patients with baseline renal dysfunction and patients who develop renal dysfunction does not appear to be compromised.

“…Among patients receiving sunitinib in other malignancies, the incidence of creatinine elevation, whatever the grade, ranges from 12.4 to 65.6% [28,31,32] . However, renal function was deteriorated in 57% of patients with pre-existing renal impairment at the start of therapy with tyrosine kinase inhibitors [33] . Laboratory abnormalities including elevated serum creatinine levels, whatever the grade, during everolimus treatment have been reported in 50-77% of patients in some series [34,35] , while grade 3/4 occurred in less than 1%.…”

“…So it is possible that these various kinase inhibitors exhibit differential effects on creatinine, metformin, and cisplatin clearance. Interestingly, similar to vandetanib, gefitinib and sunitinib are known to be potent inhibitors of both MATE1 and MATE2K in vitro and increase plasma creatinine levels in cancer patients (Khan et al, 2010;Petrylak et al, 2010).…”
