Carboplatin: Given IV
Iohexol: Given IV
Study summary
This trial studies how well iohexol works in helping doctors calculate the dose of carboplatin given to patients with cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as carboplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Understanding how to best calculate the dose of carboplatin given to patients with cancer may help doctors learn how to improve the use of carboplatin in the future.

Inclusion Criteria:
* Patients must have the psychological ability and general health that permits completion of the study requirements and required follow up
* For men who are sexually active, the need for use of medically acceptable contraception will be dictated by the primary treatment plan/protocol
* Study accrual was closed to women on 08/18/2021 and accrual is now only open to males in order to meet accrual goals and study objectives. (11-AUG-2021)
* Male sex
* Any patients who will receive treatment with intravenous carboplatin (any AUC, any cycle) on a National Cancer Institute (NCI)-sponsored National Clinical Trial Network (NCTN)-, Experimental Therapeutics Clinical Trials Network (ETCTN)-, trial, local trial, or through standard of care
* Age \>= 18
* The patient or a legally authorized representative must provide study-specific informed consent prior to study entry
Exclusion Criteria:
* Treated at an institute where creatinine is not measured with an IDMS calibrated assay
* History of allergic reactions to computed tomography (CT) contrast, iodine or shellfish, or history of anaphylactic reaction to any food item
* Recent (last 6 months) episode of acute kidney injury, have sickle cell disease, or have current indwelling nephrostomy tubes
* Edema beyond trace edema, because this will impact iohexol equilibration and distribution
* Ascites (including pleural effusion) beyond trace ascites, because this will impact iohexol equilibration and distribution
* Whole- or part-limb amputees, because this will impact iohexol equilibration and distribution
* Inability to maintain a constant dose and schedule of anti-inflammatory agents, diuretics, angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARB) and angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEi) for one week prior to study visit, as this impacts renal function. If the patient is on a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), diuretic, ARB or ACEi, they are eligible as long as these agents are taken on a set schedule for 7 or more days prior to study (and not on an "as needed" basis as that can cause fluctuations in renal function)
* Inadequate venous access to obtain pharmacokinetic (PK) specimens
* Multinodular goiter, Graves' disease or autoimmune thyroiditis, per iohexol package insert (hypothyroidism is allowed)
Primary outcome measure(s)
Accuracy of achieving the targeted carboplatin area under the curve (AUC) — Up to 4 weeks Will be quantified by the median percentage error (PE), root-mean-squared error (RMSE), interquartile range (IQR) of the residuals, and median absolute percentage error (APE). In addition, the percentage of patients for which the observed carboplatin AUC is within 17% of target will be calculated. The actual AUC will be quantified using atomic absorption spectrophotometry.
Precision of achieving the targeted carboplatin AUC — Up to 4 weeks Will be quantified by the median PE, RMSE, IQR of the residuals, and median APE. In addition, the percentage of patients for which the observed carboplatin AUC is within 17% of target will be calculated. The actual AUC will be quantified using atomic absorption spectrophotometry.
Bias of the formula for estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) currently in existence in patients with cancer — Up to 4 weeks Will be quantified by the median PE, RMSE, IQR of the residuals, and median APE will be used to assess the accuracy of each model's eGFR values for predicting measured (m)GFR. In addition, will calculate the percentage of patients for which eGFR is within 30%, 20%, and 10% of mGFR.
Precision of the formula for eGFR currently in existence in patients with cancer — Up to 4 weeks Will be quantified by the median PE, RMSE, IQR of the residuals, and median APE will be used to assess the accuracy of each model's eGFR values for predicting mGFR. In addition, will calculate the percentage of patients for which eGFR is within 30%, 20%, and 10% of mGFR.
Correlation between carboplatin clearance (CL) and mGFR — Up to 4 weeks Assessed by regression analysis. Carboplatin clearance will be derived by Empirical Bayes estimation using the POSTHOC option implemented in NONMEM. Will perform regression on the relationship between CL and mGFR. Initially this will follow a linear relationship analogous to the Calvert formula (CL = A + B\* mGFR), and will test if the observed values for A and B are significantly different from those defined by Calvert as A = 25 mL/min and B = 1 (unitless). Will also perform regression by other means, e.g. after log transformation of the data, and assess if this results in a formula that performs better than the Calvert formula or the initial linear model. In addition, the impact of covariates on this relationship will be explored.
