The dosage of cisplatin is adjusted according to creatinine clearance (Ccr) estimated by the Cockcroft-Gault formula, which is commonly used as a marker for renal function. It is known that different serum creatinine (Scr) levels are reported depending on the analytical methods utilized such as the Scr level by the enzyme method being lower than that by the Jaffe method. Although the enzyme method is used in Japan, most drug dosages, including cisplatin, are adjusted according to the estimated Ccr using the Jaffe method-based Scr level. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether assessment of renal function with or without Scr adjustment affects cisplatin-based chemotherapy in cervical cancer patients. The patients were divided into two groups, normal (Ccr≥60 mL/min with adjusted Scr) and false normal (Ccr<60 mL/min with adjusted Scr, but Ccr≥60 mL/min with non-adjusted Scr). The false normal group had significantly higher rates of cisplatin dose reduction after the second course than the normal group (p<0.05). Leukocytopenia and Grade 2 or higher neutropenia were significantly more common in the false normal group than in the normal group (p<0.05). These results suggest that evaluation of renal function using the adjusted Scr is important for the accurate dosage of cisplatin and that it helps to improve the patient's quality of life. Further investigations may provide useful information for accurate and safe cisplatin-based chemotherapy for cancer patients.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of pegfilgrastim (Peg-G) and daily filgrastim (Fil-G) for the primary prophylaxis against febrile neutropenia (FN) in patients with non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) who received cyclophosphamide, vincristine, doxorubicin and prednisolone (CHOP) therapy. We developed a decision analytical model reflecting the clinical processes of NHL patients who received first CHOP therapy. The probabilities at each clinical endpoint were obtained from published sources. To estimate the costs and duration of FN treatment, we analyzed the medical records of NHL patients in hospitals participating in this study. The costs of Peg-G and Fil-G were calculated according to the National Health Insurance drug price list. We assessed an incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER) for a single dose of Peg-G versus 11-days of Fil-G from the perspective of health insurance payers. The sensitivity and robustness of this model were validated by the tornado-diagram and Monte Carlo Method. The costs associated with primary prophylaxis with a single dose of Peg-G and 11-days of Fil-G were 109,628 JPY and 109,243 JPY, respectively. The quality adjusted life years (QALYs) associated with the two strategies were 0.0339 QALYs and 0.0337 QALYs, respectively. The ICER for the Peg-G versus Fil-G was 2,788,571 JPY per QALY. The tornado-diagram revealed that the main influential factors included the cost of Peg-G, number of Fil-G doses, and cost of Fil-G. Monte Carlo simulation revealed an 18.3% probability that Peg-G was cost-effective compared with Fil-G. A single dose of Peg-G was cost-effective compared with 11-days of Fil-G.
