BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to compare the nephrotoxicity risk of cisplatin (CPL) and ifosfamide (IFO) combination treatment (CT) with that of CPL alone and to evaluate the prevalence of CPL-induced long-term nephrotoxicity in pediatric cancer survivors (CS). METHODS: A total of 33 patients with pediatric solid tumors who have been cured of their disease were included in the study. They were divided into two groups based on the type of chemotherapeutics, either CPL (n = 21) or CT (n = 12), given during cancer treatment and were evaluated for glomerular and tubular function using the Skinner grading system. RESULTS: Nephrotoxicity was found in 15 CS (45.4%): seven (21.3%) of those had moderate, six (18.2%) had mild, and two (6.1%) had severe nephrotoxicity. Neither the rates of overall nephrotoxicity, glomerular toxicity and tubular toxicity, nor the mean overall, glomerular and tubular toxicity scores differed significantly among the CPL and CT groups (P > 0.05 for all parameters). Cumulative IFO dose and age at treatment were found to be independent risk factors for both development and severity of CPL-induced nephrotoxicity (P = 0.025 and P = 0.036 for development of nephrotoxicity; P = 0.004 and P = 0.050 for severity of nephrotoxicity, respectively). CONCLUSIONS: Although CPL-induced long-term nephrotoxicity was found in half of the pediatric CS of solid tumors, clinically significant nephrotoxicity was detected only in a minority of them. Both higher cumulative IFO dose and younger age at treatment were found to be independent risk factors for both development and severity of CPL-induced nephrotoxicity.
