Relationship between uric acid and kidney function in adults at risk for tumor lysis syndrome.

ABSTRACT: Uric acid drives acute kidney injury in tumor lysis syndrome (TLS). This study investigated the relationship between uric acid and changes in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) in adults at risk for TLS. Linear regression was used to evaluate the relationship between uric acid area under the curve (AUC) and percent change in eGFR from baseline at hospital dismissal, 1 and 3 months. In 210 included participants, each 100 mg*hour/dL increase in 24 h AUC was associated with an average decline in eGFR at hospital dismissal of 9% (95%CI 3, 15) in univariate analysis. Each 100 mg*hour/dL increase in 24 h AUC was independently associated with an average decline in eGFR of 8% (95%CI 2, 13) at 1 month after dismissal. Additional research is needed to confirm these findings and determine whether treatments that reduce overall uric acid exposure improve kidney outcomes. Preserving kidney health could favorably impact cancer treatment eligibility, tolerability, and outcomes.

Project description:BackgroundHyperuricemia is commonly observed in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). However, a better understanding of the relationship among uric acid (UA) values, glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and albuminuria may shed light on the mechanisms underlying the excess of cardiovascular mortality associated with both chronic kidney disease and hyperuricemia and lead to better risk stratification. Our main goal was to study the relationships between serum uric acid and kidney disease measures (namely estimated GFR [eGFR] and albuminuria) in a large cohort of individuals at cardiovascular risk from the URic acid Right for heArt Health (URRAH) Project database.MethodsClinical data of 26,971 individuals were analyzed. Factors associated with the presence of hyperuricemia defined on the basis of previously determined URRAH cutoffs for cardiovascular and all-cause mortality were evaluated through multivariate analysis. Chronic kidney disease was defined as eGFR < 60 ml/min per 1.73 m2 and/or abnormal urinary albumin excretion diagnosed as: (i) microalbuminuria if urinary albumin concentration was > 30 and ≤ 300 mg/L, or if urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (ACR) was > 3.4 mg/mmol and ≤ 34 mg/mmol; (ii) macroalbuminuria if urinary albumin concentration was > 300 mg/L, or if ACR was > 34 mg/mmol.ResultsMean age was 58 ± 15 years (51% males, 62% with hypertension and 12% with diabetes), mean eGFR was 81 ml/min per 1.73m22with a prevalence of eGFR < 60 and micro- or macroalbuminuria of 16, 15 and 4%, respectively. Serum uric acid showed a trend towards higher values along with decreasing renal function. Both the prevalence of gout and the frequency of allopurinol use increased significantly with the reduction of eGFR and the increase in albuminuria. Hyperuricemia was independently related to male gender, eGFR strata, and signs of insulin resistance such as body mass index (BMI) and triglycerides.ConclusionsThe lower the eGFR the higher the prevalence of hyperuricemia and gout. In subjects with eGFR < 60 ml/min the occurrence of hyperuricemia is about 10 times higher than in those with eGFR > 90 ml/min. The percentage of individuals treated with allopurinol was below 2% when GFR was above 60 ml/min, it increased to 20% in the presence of CKD 3b and rose further to 35% in individuals with macroalbuminuria.
