Acute Interstitial Nephritis

Representative incidence3.6%

Consistent with the PD-1/PD-L1 class: any AKI in roughly 15-17% of treated patients, with immune-related AIN in a smaller clinically significant subset. As a newer anti-PD-1 agent, dostarlimab-specific renal incidence is not separately quantified. A separate real-world cohort of 1,037 ICI-treated patients supplies the drug-attributable denominator this class otherwise lacks: 18.2% developed AKI of any cause, but only 3.6% (37 patients) had AKI attributed to the checkpoint inhibitor itself — a class figure, not a dostarlimab-specific one.Source: Lumlertgul et al., Eur J Cancer 2023 (class-level ICI-attributed AKI 3.6%; agent-specific AIN rate not separately quantified)

RechallengeCase-by-case

In the multicenter ICI-AKI cohort ~22% were rechallenged and ~23% of those developed recurrent AKI — feasible but an individualized, co-managed decision. PMID 31896554 (opens PubMed in a new tab)

Long-term outlook & thresholds

Renal recoveryOften partial recovery

Class-level checkpoint-inhibitor AKI recovery: in a 138-patient multicenter ICI-AKI cohort, complete, partial, and no recovery of kidney function occurred in roughly 40%, 45%, and 15% of patients respectively. Two covariates carried a better renal prognosis — treatment with steroids, and the PRESENCE of a concomitant tubulointerstitial-nephritis-causing medication (69% of patients were on one). The second is an observational association, not an intervention: the cohort analysed no effect of stopping that drug, and the likeliest reading is that a competing culprit makes the ICI a less certain cause. Rechallenge is feasible in selected patients but recurrent AKI occurs in about a quarter.PMID 31896554 (opens PubMed in a new tab)

CKD trajectory.: Roughly 15% of patients have no renal recovery, leaving residual chronic kidney disease, and recovery is often incomplete (partial recovery in ~45%) — a class-level pattern across checkpoint inhibitors. A separate single-center cohort of 1,037 ICI-treated patients sharpens the comparison: complete kidney recovery was less common after ICI-attributed AKI than after AKI from other causes (54% versus 79%, p=0.01), and ICI-AKI reached higher AKI stages.PMID 37499561 (opens PubMed in a new tab)
Dialysis / RRT.: Severe checkpoint-inhibitor AKI can require dialysis, though most ICI-attributed AKI is not dialysis-requiring.

§03

Kidney injury

Mechanism of kidney injury

PD-1 blockade disrupts tubulointerstitial immune tolerance, producing T-cell-mediated acute interstitial nephritis, frequently potentiated by haptenizing co-medications. Immune-mediated glomerular lesions occur less frequently, with reported pulmonary-renal syndrome / crescentic (pauci-immune) glomerulonephritis broadening the phenotype.

Clinical presentation

Subacute creatinine rise with sterile pyuria, white-cell casts, and low-grade proteinuria, often alongside other immune-related adverse events. New hematuria with rapidly rising creatinine (with or without pulmonary hemorrhage) signals a crescentic glomerular variant.

Management

Withhold dostarlimab, exclude alternative causes, and treat immune-related AIN with corticosteroids (prednisone ~0.5-1 mg/kg/day with taper); many patients recover at least partially. A crescentic/pulmonary-renal variant requires urgent high-dose immunosuppression. Individualize rechallenge after recovery.Lesion-level management framework

Risk factors

Concurrent PPIs/NSAIDs and other AIN-associated drugs
Combination immunotherapy/chemoimmunotherapy

Prevention

Anticancer mechanism· how it treats cancer

Humanized IgG4 monoclonal antibody blocking the PD-1 receptor, restoring antitumor T-cell function. Used in mismatch-repair-deficient/MSI-high endometrial and other solid tumors, including chemoimmunotherapy combinations.

Note · Renal data are largely class-derived given the drug's recency; the expected lesion is immune-related acute interstitial nephritis, but a dostarlimab-associated pulmonary-renal/crescentic glomerulonephritis has been reported, widening the phenotype.

§04

Clinical depth

Renal dose adjustment

No baseline renal dose adjustment (fixed-dose antibody, not renally cleared). Toxicity-based modification follows irAE grading: withhold for grade 2 nephritis with steroids; permanently discontinue for grade 3-4 or recurrent severe nephritis.

Dialyzability & ESKD dosing

Not dialyzable—IgG4 monoclonal antibody cleared by reticuloendothelial catabolism; not removed by hemodialysis, no supplemental dosing, standard dosing in ESKD.

Differential diagnosis

Distinguish ICI-AIN (late, sterile pyuria, WBC casts, steroid-responsive) from prerenal azotemia, obstruction, and other drug AIN; new hematuria, red-cell casts, or pulmonary hemorrhage point to a crescentic glomerular variant demanding biopsy and urgent treatment. Cystatin C and urine AIN biomarkers help confirm AIN and exclude pseudo-AKI.

Monitoring

Urinalysis with microscopy and protein quantification if creatinine rises
Surveillance for concurrent irAEs

Key trials & series

Cortazar JASN 2020 multicenter ICI-AKI cohort (class)
Gupta J Immunother Cancer 2021 multicenter ICI-AKI cohort (class)
Esposito Front Oncol 2023 pooled biopsy-proven ICI tubulointerstitial nephritis analysis

Clinical pearls

Default expectation is class AIN—late onset, eosinophil-poor, steroid-responsive.
But dostarlimab can cause a crescentic/pulmonary-renal syndrome: hematuria plus rapidly rising creatinine is an emergency.
Deprescribe co-administered PPIs/NSAIDs during the AKI workup.
Biopsy early when the picture is atypical—evidence for this newer agent is still thin.

What gets reported — FAERS

Everything below is FAERS — adverse events someone chose to report, about 2,264 of them for this agent. Nobody counts the patients who were fine, so none of these numbers is an incidence, a risk, or a rate: they describe what gets reported, shaped by a drug's fame, its indication, and who was watching. How these numbers work.

Reporting odds ratio (ROR) — is kidney injury named in this agent's reports more often than in every other drug's? Above 1 means yes, disproportionately.
Renal phenotypes — the same question asked separately for each kind of kidney injury, so the ratios differ from the overall one and from each other.
Outcomes — a share of this agent's own reports, not of patients: how many were filed as involving a death or a hospitalization. Not a case-fatality rate.

FAERS reported renal phenotypes· 3 signals

Only significant signals appear (95% CI lower bound above 1) — a phenotype missing here was tested and did not reach significance, except Prerenal / Hemodynamic AKI, Pseudo-AKI, Renal Cysts, Chronic Interstitial Nephropathy — outside the clinician-reviewed MedDRA term map, never queried — and ATN and AIN, queried but biopsy-bound: real cases are filed as generic “acute kidney injury”, so their absence is not a negative.

Early glucocorticoid initiation (within 3 days of diagnosis) is associated with higher rates of kidney recovery, and recurrent ICI-AKI occurs in fewer than 20% of rechallenged patients, supporting cautious rechallenge in selected patients with individualized multidisciplinary decisions for transplant recipients and other high-risk groups.
