Case report: First case of pemetrexed plus cisplatin-induced immune hemolytic anemia in a patient with lung adenocarcinoma.

Front Med (Lausanne)

August 2022

Department of Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine, National Center for Respiratory Medicine, National Clinical Research Center for Respiratory Diseases, China-Japan Friendship Hospital, Beijing, China.

Background: Drug-induced immune hemolytic anemia (DIIHA) is a rare but potentially life-threatening drug-related complication. There are no previous reports of pemetrexed plus cisplatin as first-line chemotherapy for non-small cell lung cancer, resulting in DIIHA.

Case Presentation: In this report, a patient with advanced-stage lung adenocarcinoma developed severe immune hemolytic anemia 21 days after pemetrexed plus cisplatin chemotherapy.

Objectives: Tumor Treating Fields (TTFields) are low intensity, intermediate frequency, alternating electric fields with antimitotic effects on cancerous cells. TTFields concomitant with pemetrexed and a platinum agent are approved in the US and EU as first line therapy for unresectable, locally advanced or metastatic malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM). The goal of the current study was to characterize the mechanism of action of TTFields in MPM cell lines and animal models.

Background/aim: The combination of regorafenib with cisplatin/pemetrexed has indicated controllable safety and encouraging antitumor activity in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. However, the anti-NSCLC effects and action mechanisms of regorafenib combined with cisplatin is ambiguous. The major goal of the study was to study the inhibitory effects and action mechanisms of regorafenib combined with cisplatin in NSCLC cells.

Influence of Genetic Variation in on Cisplatin-Induced Nephrotoxicity in Cancer Patients.

Genes (Basel)

March 2020

Department of Medical Oncology, Erasmus MC Cancer Institute, Erasmus University Medical Center, 3015 GD Rotterdam, The Netherlands.

Cisplatin is a chemotherapeutic agent widely used for multiple indications. Unfortunately, in a substantial set of patients treated with cisplatin, dose-limiting acute kidney injury (AKI) occurs. Here, we assessed the association of 3 catechol-O-methyltransferase ( single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) with increased cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity.
