Using a formula for calculating the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) for Japanese announced in 2009, individual patients' GFRs can be predicted by inversely correcting the formula with body surface area. In this study, we investigated the influence of the dissociation between the GFR normally employed to calculate the dose and inversely corrected GFR on carboplatin (CBDCA)-related thrombocytopenia. In a group with grade 3 or higher thrombocytopenia, the dissociation between the GFRs used to calculate the dose of CBDCA was significantly greater. Also, in an analysis of thrombocytopenia-related factors, including concomitant anti-cancer agents, the only significant difference was that regarding GFR dissociation.These results suggest that the introduction of the inversely corrected GFR for accurate calculation of the GFR and setting of CBDCA doses is useful in decreasing the incidence of serious thrombocytopenia.
