Approximately one-third of all patients treated with cisplatin develop renal dysfunction after a single dosage of cisplatin. Germline genetic polymorphisms may cause variations in cisplatin pharmacokinetics and in the ability of epithelial kidney cells to take up cisplatin and repair cisplatin-induced Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA) damage. Knowledge concerning which genotypes are associated with cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity may help to identify at-risk patients and initiate strategies, such as using lower or fractionated cisplatin doses or avoiding cisplatin altogether, to prevent Acute Kidney Injury (AKI).

Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
