摘要

Purpose The purpose of this study is to compare the incidence and severity of nephrotoxicity in patients receiving cisplatin with saline hydration vs. saline hydration with mannitol. Methods Retrospective chart review of all patients receiving a starting dose of cisplatin 100 mg/m(2) with concurrent radiation for SCCHN between January 1, 2009 and March 1, 2013. All patients received pre and post hydration each with 1 l of 0.9% saline. The mannitol group received 12.5 g of mannitol in the prehydration fluid. The primary outcome was to compare the rate of grade 3 or greater serum creatinine (SCr) increase in patients receiving saline hydration vs. the addition of mannitol; additional parameters of interest included creatinine clearance, electrolyte disturbances, dose changes, and discontinuation of cisplatin. Results Data from 139 patients (80 % male) with a median age of 56 years (range 22 to 75 years) were collected; 88 received mannitol and 51 received saline alone. On multivariable analysis, the mannitol group was less likely to have grade 3 SCr increase than saline only group (OR 0.16; 95 % CI 0.04-0.65; p value= 0.01). There were no grade 4 SCr increase events. Rates of hypomagnesemia and hypokalemia were similar across groups. Grade 3 hyponatremia was more likely to occur in the mannitol group as compared to saline alone group (41 vs 22 %; p= 0.026). Conclusion The addition of mannitol to saline hydration decreased the incidence of grade 3 increases in SCr in this cohort of patients and may increase rates of hyponatremia. Further investigations of methods to lessen cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity are needed.
