    This study demonstrates a safe method for administering cis-diamminedichloroplatinum (II) (cisplatin). Patients receiving cisplatin therapy showed no elevated serum creatinine levels, indicating preserved kidney function.

    Area of Science:

    • Oncology
    • Nephrology
    • Pharmacology

    Background:

    • Cis-diamminedichloroplatinum (II) (cisplatin) is a widely used chemotherapy agent.
    • Nephrotoxicity is a significant concern associated with cisplatin administration.
    • Effective methods to mitigate cisplatin-induced kidney damage are crucial for patient management.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the safety and renal impact of a specific cisplatin administration protocol.
    • To determine if cisplatin, when administered with mannitol and fluids, affects serum creatinine levels.
    • To establish a safe and simple method for delivering cisplatin therapy.

    Main Methods:

    • Forty patients received cisplatin at doses ranging from 25-75 mg/m2.
    • Cisplatin was administered intravenously over 1-2 hours, accompanied by 40g mannitol and hydration.

  • Serum creatinine levels were monitored throughout the treatment course.
  • Main Results:

    • No patients exhibited elevated serum creatinine levels, indicating no significant nephrotoxicity.
    • Cisplatin was administered at 50 mg/m2 to 22 patients and 75 mg/m2 to 6 patients.
    • Patients received 1-8 courses of therapy without any observed changes in renal function.

    Conclusions:

    • The described method of administering cisplatin with mannitol and fluids is safe.
    • This protocol effectively preserves kidney function during cisplatin chemotherapy.
    • A simple and safe administration method for cisplatin has been successfully achieved.
