As of April 2024–most updated data on anti-cancer agents and Pseudo-AKI.
Several classes of cancer treatments are associated with pseudo-AKI. Providers must be aware of this phenomenon, as pseudo-AKI can lead to temporary stopping and even permanent discontinuation of life-saving treatments. When patients present with increases in serum creatinine while on these drugs, checking a serum cystatin C level may help differentiate true AKI from pseudo-AKI.
