Magnesium supplementation therapy to prevent cisplatin-induced acute nephrotoxicity in pediatric cancer: Protocol for a randomised phase 2 trial.

Phase 2
Conditions
ewly diagnosed malignant disease
Registration Number
JPRN-jRCTs031180251
Lead Sponsor
Matsui Motohiro
Brief Summary

In pediatric cancer patients, we did not find significant advantage of magnesium supplementation during chemotherapy in the frequency of cisplatin related acute nephrotoxicity measured by creatinine or other renal injury parameters at least with our methodology using each chemotherapy course as a subject.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Primary endpoint is proportion of chemotherapy courses which result in elevated serum creatinine equal to, or more than 50% of the pre-value. Four secondary endpoints are (1) proportion of chemotherapy courses result in renal dysfunction by means of cystatin-C in serum, B2M, L-FABP, NGAL, and NAG in urine
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Four secondary endpoints are (1) proportion of chemotherapy courses result in renal dysfunction by means of cystatin-C in serum, B2M, L-FABP, NGAL, and NAG in urine, (2) comparison between two groups of kinetics of cystatin-C in serum, B2M, L-FABP, NGAL, and NAG in urine during chemotherapy course, (3) comparison between two groups of kinetics of serum Mg value as a surrogate of pharmacokinetics of Mg sulfate, and (4) Safety analyses of Mg supplementation.
