Renal function evaluation in patients with cancer who were scheduled to receive carboplatin or S-1.

abstract：BACKGROUND:The suitable methods evaluating glomerular filtration rate (GFR) have not been established in patients undergoing radical nephrectomy (RN) or radical nephroureterectomy (RNU) due to urological malignancies in Japan as well as worldwide. METHODS:We examined the relationship between creatinine clearance-based...
