Background:Pts with cancer may have MD that can be caused by neoplastic/paraneoplastic disease, rheumatic diseases or be induced by anticancer drug treatment. There is no data about MD influence on the QoL of cancer patients. The EORTC QoL questionnaire (QLQ)-C30 is a valid questionnaire designed to assess different aspects (Global health (GH), Functional (FS) and symptoms (SS) scales) that define the QoL of cancer patients [1].Objectives:The objective of the study was to assess the impact of drug induced and other types of MD on the QoL of cancer patients that received anticancer drug treatment by using of EORTC QLQ-C30 v3.0.Methods:The sampling of 123 pts (M/F – 40/83; mean age 54.4±12.8) with breast (32,5%), gastrointestinal (17%), ovary (8%), lung (7%) and other cancer was observed by rheumatologist in the oncology outpatient clinic. All pts received anticancer drug treatment: chemotherapy (104 pts), target therapy (16 pts) checkpoint-inhibitors (14 pts), hormone therapy (13 pts) in different combinations. 102(82.9%) of 123pts had MD include arthritis (12 pts), synovitis (5 pts), arthralgia (66 pts), periarthritis (34 pts), osteodynia (13 pts). There were 58 pts (group 1; M/F – 14/44; mean age 52.5±12.2) with anticancer drug treatment induced MD and 44 pts (group 2; M/F – 16/27; mean age 57.6±13.5) with other type of MD include 26 pts with skeletal metastasis. The were 21 pts (group 3; M/F – 10/11; mean age 52.9±11.1) without MD. All pts fulfilled EORTC QLQ-C30 v3.0 (tab.1).Table 1.The median [Q1;Q3] of results of GH, SS and SS of EORTC QLQ-C30ScaleSubscaleGroup1Group2Group3GH58.3[50;58]58.3[41.7;83.3]50[50;66.7]FS*Physical functioning73.3[60;86.7]73.3[66.7;86.7]86.7[80;93]Role functioning66.7[66.7;100]83.3[50;100]100[83;100]Emotional functioning83.3[66.7;100]75[66.7;91.7]91.6[83.3;100]Social functioning83.3[66.7;100]83.3[50;100]100[83.3;100]SS*Pain33.3[0;50]16.7[0;33.3]0[0;16.7]*There are only the scores that had got a statistical difference between the groups.Kruskal-Wallis H and post-hoc (Dwass-Steel-Critchlow-Fligner (DSCF) pairwise comparisons) tests for data analysis were performed.Results:A Kruskal-Wallis H test has shown a statistically significant difference in physical (χ2(2)=7.54; p=0.023), role (χ2(2)=9.87; p=0.007), emotion (χ2(2)=7.69; p=0.021) functioning and pain (χ2(2)=8.44; p=0.015) scores between the different groups. A post-hoc test with DSCF pairwise comparisons of median has shown a statistically significant difference between 1 and 3 groups (W=3.904; p=0.016) for physical functioning, between 2 and 3 groups (W=3.35; p=0.004) for role functioning, between 2 and 3 groups (W=4.03; p=0.012) for emotional functioning, between 1 and 3 groups (W=-3.97; p=0.014) for pain scale.Conclusion:The study has shown that MD associated with anticancer drug treatment adversely affected the QoL of cancer patients received anticancer drug treatment by reducing a physical functioning and by increasing pain scores. Presence of other types of MD adversely affect the QoL by reducing emotional and role functioning.References:[1]Aaronson NK,et al.The European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer QLQ-C30: a quality-of-life instrument for use in international clinical trials in oncology.

9121 Background: The IRMA study reported the high prevalence of renal insufficiency (RI) in 4684 solid tumour patients, with a glomerular filtration rate (GFR) <90 ml/min for 50–60%. Furthermore, 80.1% were receiving nephrotoxic anticancer drugs and 79.9% drugs necessitating dosage adjustment. We present the results for IRMA patients with bone metastasis (BM). Methods: Subgroup analysis of IRMA patients with BM. Data collected: sex, age, weight, serum creatinine (SCR), bone metastasis (BM) and anticancer drugs. The prevalence of SCR>110 μmol/L was assessed. GFR was estimated with Cockcroft-Gault (CG) and abbreviated MDRD (aMDRD) formulae. Drugs necessitating dosage adjustment and those potentially nephrotoxic were identified. Chi-square test was used to compare the prevalence of RI between patients with BM and patients without, for all patients and for breast cancer (BC) ones. Results: 1,000 patients (BC 577) with BM were included: median age 60, mean 59.8, weight 66 kg, 659 women. The prevalence of SCR>110 μmol/L was 8.3%. That of GFR<90 ml/min was 57.9% with CG and 54.7% with aMDRD. 83.4% of treated patients received at least one drug needing dosage adjustment (or no data) and 69% received at least one nephrotoxic drug. The prevalence of RI was not statistically different between patients with or without BM. However, the prevalence of RI was significantly higher in BC patients with BM as compared to BC patients without BM (62.1 versus 56.7 %, p=0.04). Conclusions: RI is highly frequent in cancer patients with BM. Appropriate evaluation of renal function necessitates CG or aMDRD calculation. In those patients, and especially in breast cancer patients with BM, anticancer drugs should be cautiously selected regarding their potential renal toxicity and need for dosage adjustment.

9559 Background: The IRMA-1 study reported the high prevalence of renal insufficiency (RI) in 4,684 cancer patients, with a glomerular filtration rate (GFR) <90 and <60 ml/min/1.73m2 for 52.9% and 12.0%, respectively. Furthermore, almost 80% of patients were receiving nephrotoxic drugs or drugs necessitating dosage adjustment. The IRMA-2 study was started one year later, in different patients, and consisted of 2 phases: 1) a cross-sectional study, similar to IRMA-1, and 2) a 2-year retrospective follow-up of the patients to describe the evolution of their renal function along with time. Data from the phase 1 were compared to the results of IRMA-1 in terms of RI prevalence. Methods: Data were collected for cancer patients presenting at one of the 19 IRMA-2 centers in March 2005: type of tumour, sex, age, weight, serum creatinine (SCR), and anticancer drugs. Dialysis, myeloma and lymphoma patients were not included. The prevalence of SCR>110 μmol/L was assessed. GFR was estimated with the aMDRD formula, anticancer drugs necessitating dosage adjustment and those potentially nephrotoxic were identified. Results: 4,945 patients (breast 1816, colorectal 747, lung 463, ovarian 294, prostate 251) were included in the IRMA-2 study. Median age 60.0, mean weight 66.2, 62.8% were women. The prevalence of an elevated SCR (SCR>110μmol/l) was 7.2% (vs. 7.2% in IRMA-1), that of a GFR < 90 ml/min/1.73m2 was 50.2% (vs. 52.9%) and that of a GFR < 60 ml/min/1.73m2 was 11.9% (vs. 12.0%) ( Table ). 73.2% of treated patients (n=3882) were receiving at least one drug needing dosage adjustment and 75.5% received at least one nephrotoxic drug (vs. 79.9 and 80.1%, respectively). Conclusions: The results of IRMA-2 and IRMA-1 confirm the high prevalence of RI in cancer patients, on 2 different cohorts of nearly 5,000 cancer patients each. This underlines that estimating renal function in cancer patients is mandatory and that this highly frequent co-morbidity should be considered.

e22104 Background: Risk of acute renal failure (ARF) among breast cancer (BC) patients may increase with nephrotoxic chemotherapy and other exposures, but this risk is not well characterized. Furthermore, among patients who present with renal insufficiencies (RI) at cancer diagnosis, subsequent treatment patterns are not well described. Methods: We performed a retrospective cohort study using a large national commercial claims database. The cohort included all women diagnosed with BC from 2000 to 2007 who were 18–64 years at diagnosis with no history of cancer (n=13,296). We defined a diagnosis of BC as at least one inpatient or two outpatient claims more than 30 days apart with an ICD-9 code of 174. Among patients with no history of RI (n=13,150), we calculated the cumulative incidence (CI) of ARF_the proportion with at least one inpatient or two outpatient claims with an ICD-9 code of 584 or 586 in the first year following cancer diagnosis. Treatment for BC patients with a history of RI (n=146) was also assessed. Results: Among BC patients with no history of RI, 0.3% were diagnosed with ARF within a year after cancer diagnosis. The CI of ARF was higher in patients with metastases: 0.7% for any metastasis, 2.3% for bone metastasis, and 0.1% for no metastasis. The CI of ARF among patients undergoing radiation or mastectomy was similar to the overall rate (0.3%) but was higher in patients receiving nephrotoxic chemotherapy (1.0%) or intravenous bisphosphonates (IV BPs) (2.1%). The CI of ARF was higher in patients with congestive heart failure (1.4%), diabetes (0.9%), and/or hypertension (0.8%) at cancer diagnosis compared to patients without these comorbidities (0.2%). Among BC patients with a history of RI, 7.5% were administered nephrotoxic chemotherapy, 30.1% received potentially nephrotoxic chemotherapy, and 1.4% were given IV BPs. Conclusions: Breast cancer patients who present with comorbidities, develop metastases, or are given nephrotoxic chemotherapy or IV bisphosphonates are at higher risk of acute renal failure in the first year after breast cancer diagnosis. More research is warranted on the treatment of breast cancer patients with a history of renal insufficiency. [Table: see text]
