§Guidelines & Consensus

The guidance behind the management

37 guidelines and consensus statements from KDIGO, ASCO, ESMO, SITC, ASON, the ADQI, ASTCT, the ESC, eviQ/ADDIKD and expert panels — every one PubMed-verified — that inform how anti-cancer-drug kidney injury is prevented, diagnosed and managed. Each drug page links the guidelines relevant to that agent.

Each recommendation below is this atlas's faithful summary of the source, not a quotation from it — follow the PubMed link for the wording the society published. Summaries may be superseded; consult the current full text and individualize to the patient.

IC-OSImmune Checkpoint Inhibitor-Associated Cardiovascular Toxic Effects: International Cardio-Oncology Society Position StatementJAMA Oncol 2026 · PMID 41231466Concerns for myocarditis continue to dominate the spectrum of CV toxic effects in patients receiving ICI therapy. Recommendations for management vary according to severity. Multidisciplinary collaborations remain key for managing acute toxic effects and future cancer treatment decisions, including ICI rechallenge.ADQIConventional cytotoxic chemotherapy-associated nephrotoxicity: consensus report of the 34th Acute Disease Quality Initiative (ADQI) WorkgroupKidney Int 2026 · PMID 41881107Cisplatin is identified as a leading cytotoxic nephrotoxin; the workgroup details preventive measures (adequate isotonic hydration, correction of volume depletion, avoidance of concurrent nephrotoxins, attention to electrolyte/magnesium wasting) and management of cisplatin-associated AKI, with a research agenda for knowledge gaps.ADQIImmune Checkpoint Inhibitor-Associated Acute Kidney Injury: A Report from the 34th Acute Disease Quality Initiative (ADQI) Consensus ConferenceJ Am Soc Nephrol 2026 · PMID 42536415AKI occurs in up to 20% of ICI-treated patients with ICI-AKI accounting for roughly 2-5% of cases, and acute tubulointerstitial nephritis dominates (80-90% of biopsies); no clinical feature reliably separates ICI-AKI from other causes, so kidney biopsy remains the diagnostic gold standard and emerging biomarkers are not yet ready for routine use. 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.ASONDiagnosis and management of immune checkpoint inhibitor-associated nephrotoxicity: a position statement from the American Society of Onco-nephrologyKidney Int 2025 · PMID 39455026ICI-AKI most commonly presents as acute interstitial nephritis; nephrology consultation and kidney biopsy should be considered for stage 2 or higher AKI or suspected glomerular disease, but where biopsy is not feasible, prompt empiric corticosteroids (prednisone ~1 mg/kg/day) should be started for clinically suspected ICI-AKI since early steroids improve renal recovery, with cautious individualized consideration of ICI rechallenge after recovery.NCCNNCCN Guidelines Insights: Management of Immunotherapy-Related Toxicities, Version 2.2024J Natl Compr Canc Netw 2024 · PMID 39536465For mild MNTs, steroids such as dexamethasone 10 mg daily can be considered. For persistent, severe, or refractory MNTs, and if high circulating CAR T-cell levels are detected, chemotherapy such as cyclophosphamide can be considered.ESMOManagement of toxicities from immunotherapy: ESMO Clinical Practice Guideline for diagnosis, treatment and follow-upAnn Oncol 2022 · PMID 36270461For ICI-related AKI, exclude alternative etiologies and stop concomitant nephrotoxins (PPIs, NSAIDs); ESMO permits continuing the ICI for stage 1 AKI with monitoring, but recommends withholding the ICI and starting corticosteroids for stage 2 or higher nephritis, escalating immunosuppression for steroid-refractory disease.Expert ConsensusThe Prevention of Cisplatin-Induced Nephrotoxicity: A General Consensus Statement of a Group of Oncologist-Hematologists, Adult and Pediatric Nephrologists, Radiation Oncologists, Clinical Pathologists, Clinical Pharmacologists, and Renal Physiologists on Cisplatin Therapy in Cancer PatientsInt J Prev Med 2022 · PMID 35392316Consensus on modifiable factors for cisplatin nephrotoxicity prevention, addressing hydration methods, magnesium supplementation, dextrose, avoidance of NSAIDs and renin-angiotensin system inhibitors and contrast agents around cisplatin, GFR assessment, antioxidants, and patient factors (age, sex, female hormones).ESC2022 ESC Guidelines on cardio-oncology developed in collaboration with the European Hematology Association (EHA), the European Society for Therapeutic Radiology and Oncology (ESTRO) and the International Cardio-Oncology Society (IC-OS)Eur Heart J 2022 · PMID 36017568For VEGF/VEGFR inhibitors, perform baseline cardiovascular risk assessment, monitor blood pressure (weekly during the first cycle, then regularly) and treat to a target <140/90 mmHg with ACE inhibitors/ARBs and dihydropyridine calcium-channel blockers; manage VEGFi-associated hypertension and proteinuria with interruption/dose modification when severe.ESCEuropean Society of Cardiology quality indicators for the prevention and management of cancer therapy-related cardiovascular toxicity in cancer treatmentEur Heart J Qual Care Clin Outcomes 2022 · PMID 36316010Adherence quality indicators require documented baseline cardiovascular risk assessment and structured monitoring of cardiovascular complications (including hypertension) during cancer therapy such as VEGF-pathway inhibitors.ASCOManagement of Immune-Related Adverse Events in Patients Treated With Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor Therapy: ASCO Guideline UpdateJ Clin Oncol 2021 · PMID 34724392For grade 2 or higher ICI-related nephritis/AKI, hold the ICI, exclude alternative causes, and initiate corticosteroids (prednisone 0.5-1 mg/kg/day for grade 2, 1-2 mg/kg/day for grade 3-4) tapered over 4-6 weeks once creatinine improves; permanently discontinue for grade 4 toxicity.SITCSociety for Immunotherapy of Cancer (SITC) clinical practice guideline on immune checkpoint inhibitor-related adverse eventsJ Immunother Cancer 2021 · PMID 34172516Grade ICI-related AKI by CTCAE; for persistent grade 2 or higher renal toxicity, discontinue the ICI, exclude other causes, and treat with corticosteroids with a taper begun once creatinine improves toward grade 1, considering kidney biopsy and additional immunosuppression for refractory cases.EULAREULAR points to consider for the diagnosis and management of rheumatic immune-related adverse events due to cancer immunotherapy with checkpoint inhibitorsAnn Rheum Dis 2021 · PMID 32327425Oncologists should be encouraged to consult rheumatologists promptly for assessment when rheumatic musculoskeletal and systemic signs or symptoms are suspected due to immunotherapy, and rheumatologists should provide facilitated access for such patients.ASCOManagement of Immune-Related Adverse Events in Patients Treated With Chimeric Antigen Receptor T-Cell Therapy: ASCO GuidelineJ Clin Oncol 2021 · PMID 34724386Grade toxicities by ASTCT criteria; manage CRS with supportive care escalating to tocilizumab with or without corticosteroids, and manage moderate-to-severe ICANS with corticosteroids and supportive care given potential for rapid decline.KDIGOManagement of Blood Pressure in Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease Not Receiving Dialysis: Synopsis of the 2021 KDIGO Clinical Practice GuidelineAnn Intern Med 2021 · PMID 34152826Recommends standardized office BP measurement and a target systolic BP <120 mm Hg for most CKD patients, with RAAS inhibitors first-line when albuminuria is present — the BP-management basis for anti-VEGF/TKI-induced hypertension and proteinuria.PUMCH Expert PanelClinical recommendations on diagnosis and treatment of immune checkpoint inhibitor-induced renal immune-related adverse eventsThorac Cancer 2020 · PMID 32232975Screen and monitor with serum creatinine, urinalysis/sediment, and 24-hour urine protein; strongly recommend kidney biopsy to confirm ICI-related ATIN and exclude other AKI causes, withdraw nephrotoxins (PPIs, NSAIDs), and initiate corticosteroids when a grade 2 or higher renal irAE is highly suspected, with multidisciplinary decisions on ICI withdrawal and rechallenge.ASTCTASTCT Consensus Grading for Cytokine Release Syndrome and Neurologic Toxicity Associated with Immune Effector CellsBiol Blood Marrow Transplant 2019 · PMID 30592986Grade CRS by fever, hypotension and hypoxia (grades 1-4) and grade ICANS using the ICE/encephalopathy score plus level of consciousness, seizures, motor findings and raised intracranial pressure/edema; this is the standard severity framework that triggers tocilizumab and corticosteroid escalation in CAR-T and bispecific antibody toxicity (the Lee 2019 consensus).ASCOManagement of Immune-Related Adverse Events in Patients Treated With Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor Therapy: American Society of Clinical Oncology Clinical Practice GuidelineJ Clin Oncol 2018 · PMID 29442540Withhold the checkpoint inhibitor and start corticosteroids for grade 2 or higher immune-related renal toxicity after excluding other causes of AKI, with steroid taper as renal function recovers and permanent discontinuation for severe (grade 4) events.Intl. Expert PanelConsensus Guideline for Use of Glucarpidase in Patients with High-Dose Methotrexate Induced Acute Kidney Injury and Delayed Methotrexate ClearanceOncologist 2018 · PMID 29079637For HDMTX infusions <=24 h, glucarpidase may be indicated when the methotrexate concentration is >30 uM at 36 h, >10 uM at 42 h, or >5 uM at 48 h together with a significantly elevated serum creatinine (indicating HDMTX-induced AKI); administer optimally within 48-60 h of infusion start, as it is far less effective beyond 60 h.ASCO / CCORole of Bone-Modifying Agents in Metastatic Breast Cancer: An American Society of Clinical Oncology-Cancer Care Ontario Focused Guideline UpdateJ Clin Oncol 2017 · PMID 29035643Endorses denosumab 120 mg SC q4w, pamidronate 90 mg IV q3-4w, or zoledronic acid 4 mg IV q12w or q3-4w; nitrogen bisphosphonates require renal function monitoring and dose/interval adjustment for impaired clearance, whereas denosumab needs no renal dose adjustment (with hypocalcemia risk in CKD).BCSHGuidelines for the management of tumour lysis syndrome in adults and children with haematological malignancies on behalf of the British Committee for Standards in HaematologyBr J Haematol 2015 · PMID 25876990Risk-adapted prophylaxis and management of TLS in haematological malignancy: hydration with allopurinol for lower-risk and rasburicase for high-risk patients, with monitoring of electrolytes and renal function to prevent and treat AKI.TLS Consensus PanelRecommendations for the evaluation of risk and prophylaxis of tumour lysis syndrome (TLS) in adults and children with malignant diseases: an expert TLS panel consensusBr J Haematol 2010 · PMID 20331465Stratify each patient as low/intermediate/high TLS risk using tumor type, bulk/stage, proliferation rate, baseline laboratory TLS, and renal impairment/involvement, then match prophylaxis intensity (monitoring vs allopurinol vs rasburicase) to the assigned risk level.UK Consensus PanelUsing bevacizumab to treat metastatic cancer: UK consensus guidelinesBr J Hosp Med (Lond) 2010 · PMID 21135762Assess and monitor blood pressure and proteinuria during bevacizumab therapy; treat emergent hypertension to standard targets and interrupt/discontinue the drug for uncontrolled hypertension, nephrotic-range proteinuria or other severe vascular toxicity.TLS Expert PanelGuidelines for the management of pediatric and adult tumor lysis syndrome: an evidence-based reviewJ Clin Oncol 2008 · PMID 18509186Prevention is the best management: hydration plus prophylactic rasburicase for high-risk patients, hydration plus allopurinol or rasburicase for intermediate-risk, and monitoring for low-risk; for established TLS add aggressive hydration and diuresis plus allopurinol or rasburicase for hyperuricemia. Urinary alkalinization is NOT recommended.Cairo-BishopTumour lysis syndrome: new therapeutic strategies and classificationBr J Haematol 2004 · PMID 15384972Defines the Cairo-Bishop criteria distinguishing laboratory TLS (>=2 metabolic abnormalities: hyperuricemia, hyperkalemia, hyperphosphatemia, hypocalcemia within 3 days before to 7 days after therapy) from clinical TLS (laboratory TLS plus AKI, cardiac arrhythmia, or seizure), with a severity grading scheme adopted by subsequent guidelines.
