Hydration with 15 mEq Magnesium Is Effective at Reducingthe Risk for Cisplatin-induced Nephrotoxicity in Patients Receiving Cisplatin (≥50 mg/m2) Combination Chemotherapy
Aim: We aimed to assess whether the efficacy of pre-hydration with 15 mEq magnesium prevents cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity in cisplatin regimens (dosage: 50 mg/m2 or more) for gynecological cancer.
Patients and Methods: This historical, prospective cohort study compared nephrotoxicity in patients who received pre-hydration with or without magnesium sulfate (Mg-hydration group, n=37; non-Mg-hydration group, n=37). We used serum creatinine (Scr), creatinine clearance (Ccr) and Risk, Injury, Failure, Loss of kidney function and End-stage kidney disease (RIFLE) criteria.
Results: A change of Scr and Ccr in the Mg-hydration group was higher than in the non-Mg-hydration group. Based on the RIFLE criteria, the number of moderate renal dysfunction patients classified as “Risk” in the Mg-hydration group was significantly lower than in the non-Mg-hydration group (Mg-hydration group=21.6%; non-Mg-hydration group=51.4%; p<0.01). Serum magnesium levels in the Mg-hydration group significantly declined during chemotherapy (p<0.01). Conclusion: We found that a 15 mEq magnesium as pre-hydration provided nephroprotective effects in patients receiving this cisplatin regimen. Future research should involve finding appropriate magnesium doses.
