Abstract
Background: The potential nephrotoxicity of cyclosporine A (CsA) has been a problem for treating graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). However, the relationship between CsA blood concentration and acute kidney injury (AKI) in pediatric patients after allo-HSCT remains unclear.
Methods: We performed a retrospective study including pediatric patients who received allo-HSCT in West China Second Hospital of Sichuan University from 2000 to 2022 and collected their clinical data. Included patients' CsA blood concentration were divided into three cohorts according to the guideline. Multivariate logistic regression was used to estimate the relationship between AKI and CsA blood concentration and other factors. And the maximum cut-off value for the safe blood concentration range of CsA was obtained by the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve.
Results: Seventy-nine patients (average age 6.75 ± 4.25) were included. The incidence of kidney injury for three CsA blood concentration cohorts (< 200 ng/ml, 200-300 ng/ml, > 300 ng/ml) were 21.30%, 23.50%, and 66.70%, respectively. A multivariate logistic regression identified CsA blood concentration (> 300 ng/ml) and infection were risk factors for AKI (OR <200 ng/ml: 0.115, 95% CI: 0.029-0.458; OR 200-300 ng/ml: 0.184, 95% CI: 0.036-0.929; OR infection: 5.006, 95% CI: 1.491-16.810). Meanwhile, the maximum cut-off value for the safe blood concentration range of CsA is 276.85 ng/ml with an AUC value of 0.684 (P = 0.010).
Conclusion: In conclusion, clinical treatment for the pediatric patients after allo-HSCT may be considered to control the blood concentration of CsA in 200-276.85 ng/ml and closely monitoring patients who have infections.
期刊介绍:
The European Journal of Clinical Pharmacology publishes original papers on all aspects of clinical pharmacology and drug therapy in humans. Manuscripts are welcomed on the following topics: therapeutic trials, pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics, pharmacogenetics, drug metabolism, adverse drug reactions, drug interactions, all aspects of drug development, development relating to teaching in clinical pharmacology, pharmacoepidemiology, and matters relating to the rational prescribing and safe use of drugs. Methodological contributions relevant to these topics are also welcomed.
Data from animal experiments are accepted only in the context of original data in man reported in the same paper. EJCP will only consider manuscripts describing the frequency of allelic variants in different populations if this information is linked to functional data or new interesting variants. Highly relevant differences in frequency with a major impact in drug therapy for the respective population may be submitted as a letter to the editor.
Straightforward phase I pharmacokinetic or pharmacodynamic studies as parts of new drug development will only be considered for publication if the paper involves
-a compound that is interesting and new in some basic or fundamental way, or
-methods that are original in some basic sense, or
-a highly unexpected outcome, or
-conclusions that are scientifically novel in some basic or fundamental sense.
