Tumor lysis syndrome

History

• 1929, Bedrna ; chronic leukemia • 1977 , Crittenden & Ackerman ; first case

of spontaneous tumor lysis & ARF in disseminated GI carcinoma

• risk factor : large tumor burdens, LDH > 1500 IU , extensive bone marrow involvement & high tumor sensitivity to chemotherapy

Definition

• A group of metabolic complication that occur after treatment of neoplastic disorder or disease progression

• hyperphosphatemia , hypocalcermia , hyperuricemia , hyperkalemia & ARF

Definition

• ARF following therapy : allopurinol used before therapy => more frequent combine severe hyperphosphatemia

• Spontaneous TLS with ARF : acute uric acid nephropathy ( tumor cell turnover )

Uric acid nephropathy

• Uric acid crystals form & tend to deposit in the collecting ducts & the deep cortical & medullaryvessels => due to increased renal intraluminalfluid concentration , acidic distal tubular fluid , reduced tubular flow rate , & hemoconcentrationin medullary vessels

• intratubular obstruction => azotemia & oliguria• vascular obstruction => filtration failure

Uric acid nephropathy

• 1. Decreased GFR by preexisting volume depletion or cytokine mediated alteration in renal perfusion

• 2. Ischemic acute tubular necrosis ( DD with prolong hypotension or nephrotoxicagents such as antimicrobial agents , C/T , contrast )

• 3. Distal tubule or cortical collecting duct

Metabolic abnormality

• Hyperkalemia : appear from 6 ~72 hours• Hyperphosphatemia : appear from 24~ 48

hours ; malignant hematologic cells may contain up to 4 times than normal cells

• Hyperuricemia : appear from 48 ~ 72 hours • Hypocalcemia : precipitation of the Ca-P

complex [ Ca x P > 65 (mg/dL)2 ]

Etiology

• Post treatment : lymphoma , leukemia , multiple myeloma , breast ca , medulloblastoma , sarcoma , ovarian ca, squamous cell carcinoma of the vulva , & small cell lung ca

• prior therapy : poorly differentiated lymphoma ( Burkitt’s lymphoma ) & leukemia ( ALL & less AML )

Post-therapy ARF

• If no allopurinol used , the ARF as many as 10% of the treatment of ALL

• hyperphosphatemia was main cause of post-therapy ARF now.

• Calcium phosphate deposition in the renal parenchyma & vessels

• LDH elevation more 30% : 7/13 azotemia ; 2/19 non-azotemia

Spontaneous tumor lysissyndrome ( STLS )

• A series : 16 acute uric acid nephropathy ; 4 case of STLS ( Arrambide , 1993 )

• another series : 33 lymphoblastic or undifferentiated lymphoma ; 3 case with marked hyperuricemia ( > 17 mg/dL ) & need hemodialysis ( Tsokos , 1981 )

• lack of hyperphosphatemia : re-utilized released P for re-synthesis of new tumor .

Diagnosis

• Suspected in large tumor burden • ARF in marked hyperuricemia ( > 15

mg/dL ) ( others < 12 mg/dL ) & /or hyper-P ( > 8 mg/dL ) ( others common < 6 mg/dL )

• oligouria ; no sym to urinary tract • U/A : uric acid crystals or amorphous urates• Overexcretion of the uric acid ( uric acid/Cr

> 1.0 in urine (1978, Kelton )

Treatment

• Prophylaxis , prevention & appropriate dialytic treatment

• 1. Allopurinol : 600 ~ 900 mg/QD at least 2 days before chemotherapy & maybe discontinue within 1~2 days after complete C/T

• half life 60~180 mins ; active metabolite , oxypurinol , inhibit xanthine oxidase( 18~30 hours ) => increase xanthine level

Treatment

• 2. Fluid loading ( saline or mannitol ) to maintain high urine output ( > 2.5 L/QD )

• 3. Reversible forms ( volume contraction ; hypercalcemia ; urinary tract ob ) should be corrected firstly

Treatment

• 4. Urinary alkalinization with acetazolamide& sodium bicarbonate ( as effective as hydration with saline alone )

• physiologic pH => 98% uric acid exists in the plasma as its ionized salt , urate

• uric acid will less soluble under acid status• isotonic sodium bicarbonate in half saline

with 5% dextrose run 150 ~300 cc/hr

Treatment (alkalization)

• Xanthine & hypoxanthine were less soluble under alkalization status

• alkalinization has the potential disadvantage of promoting Ca-P deposition

• no useful when ARF due to increased volume retention

• keep urine pH 7~8

Treatment

• 5. increase uric acid degradation [ uricase( Elitek ; rasburicase )]

• oxidation of uric acid to allantoin ( 5 times more soluble )

• 1975, prophylaxis of acute tumor lysis sym in Europe => easy anaphylaxis

• anaphylaxis => PEG (poly-ethylene glycol ) addition

Treatment(rasburicase )

• recombinant form = complementary DNA fragment from Aspergillus flavus in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

• hemolytic anemia may occur due to the inability to metabolize hydrogen peroxide produced during the formation of allantoinin G6PD deficiency cases

Treatment(rasburicase )• (2001, Goldman ) 1. reduced plasma uric

acid within 4 hours• 2. no renal failure requiring renal

replacement therapy in rasburicase group • 3. no need adjust by Ccr• 4. Tx dose : 0.2 mg/Kg IV QD for up to 7

days ; Q12H for first three days • favor prophylactic use & response rate :

100%

Treatment(rasburicase )

• 2003, Bosly : 29 hyperuricemic children & 27 hyperuricemic adult decreased from 15.1 & 14.2 mg/dL to 0.4 & 0.5 mg/dL 24~ 48 hours after the last dose of rasburicase

• 1.5 mg/vial , 2683 dollars (健保價)• try rasburicase in acute uric acid

nephropathy induced ARF at our hospital

Treatment (ARF ) • Dialysis : non-resolution of tumor lysis

induced ARF ; life-threatening electrolyte disorders; volume overload

• prompt & aggressive for the conservative treatment inadequate

• Start HD when diuresis can not be induced or persistent oligouria over 12hrs following adequate volume expansion

• Diuresis : urine > 1.2 mL/kg/hr

Treatment ( ARF ) • Intermittent dialysis <=> continue dialysis• HD : clearance of uric acid : 70~145 ml/min

( high flux membrane & high blood flow )• peritoneal dialysis : C uric acid : 6.7~9.5

ml/min • CAVH (continuous arteriovenous

hemodialysis ) : C uric acid : 39 ml/min• CVVH ( continuous veno-venous

hemodiafiltration ) : C uric acid : 45 ml/min

Treatment ( ARF )

• A correlation between oliguria length before dialysis initiation & oliguria length post dialysis ( 1968, Holland ; 1975 , Steinberg )

• hyperphosphatemia suggest HD interval 12 ~ 24 hrs

• CAVH or CVVH was favorable but no definitive study for compare with HD ,but need ICU bed for procedure

Tx of prior C/T STLS

• Allopurinol• loop diuretic & fluid ( alkalization ) • sodium bicarbonate should not be given at

ARF ( difficult to raise urine pH ) • hemodialysis when the diuresis cannot be

induced • complete recovery is excellent if Tx is

initiated rapidly

Tx of prior C/T STLS

• Oligouria had respond rapidly to HD with initiation of a diuresis as plasma uric acid falls to 10 mg/dL ( 1974,Kjellstrand )

• Clearance of uric acid 70 ~100 ml/min & plasma uric acid level falls by 50% with each six hours treatment ( 1974,Kjellstrand )

• PD had less efficient with clearance below to 10 ml/min

ARF following TLS

• Rapid recover need normalization of P & uric acid

• P clearance 60 ~ 100 ml/min by HD ( dialyzer & blood flow ) ( P burden 2~7 g /qd & need HD q12 ~24 hours )

• continuous arteriovenous hemodialysis• continuous venovenous hemofiltration

ASTL with hyperuricemic ARF

• 2004 , J of nephrology , CGMH of Kweishan ; Hsiang-HaoHsu , Yi-Ling Chan , Chiu-Ching Huang

• pre-Tx hyperuricemic ARF , ratio of U.A. & Cr > 1 & LDH > 500 with pathology proven malignancy

• total case : 10/926 cases ( 1.08% ) • advanced tumors with large tumor burden &

abdominal organ involvement in 80% of p’t

ASTL with hyperuricemic ARF

• Non-specific initial presentation : ( lethargy 90% ; N/V 80% ) ; malignant sym ( B sym 80% ; abdominal discomfort 60% )

• oliguria & severe hyperuricemia => ARF • 7/10 had diuresis with resolution of

hyperuricemia ( U.A. 9.3+- 3.1 ) • 3 cases survival => one case had no renal

impairment

ASTL with hyperuricemic ARF

• 3 case no diuresis phase died within one wk• 4 cases subsequently died despite improved

renal & metabolic function disturbance• poor outcomes in p’t with STLS developing

acute uric acid nephropathy make early recognition , aggressive management & prompt dialysis mandatory
