ATP-MgCl2 increases cisplatin toxicity in the dog and rat.
The purpose of this study was to examine if ATP-MgCl2, an agent that protects against acute cisplatin toxicity in vitro, protected against cisplatin toxicity in vivo. Baseline renal function measurements were obtained on dogs (n = 12) and rats (n = 20) on day -1. Dogs were given 90 mg m-2 cisplatin (n = 5), 90 mg m-2 cisplatin and 50 mumol kg-1 ATP-MgCl2 (n = 5), or 90 mg m-2 cisplatin and 150 mumol kg-1 ATP-MgCl2 (n = 2), in a slow bolus i.v. injection on day 0. Rats were given 4 mg kg-1 cisplatin i.p. (n = 6) and 25 mumol kg ATP-MgCl2 (n = 8) i.v. or 4 mg kg-1 cisplatin i.p. and 25 mumol kg-1 ATP-MgCl2 (n = 6) i.v. on day 0. Renal function was assessed on a routine basis for 14 days. All dogs had significantly decreased creatinine clearance following cisplatin administration. There were no significant differences in renal function tests between groups of dogs. One dog given 50 mumol kg-1 ATP-MgCl2 and both dogs given 150 mumol kg-1 ATP-MgCl2 in addition to cisplatin developed acute anuric renal failure and were euthanatized prior to completion of the study. Rats given 4 mg kg-1 cisplatin and 25 mumol kg-1 ATP-MgCl2 had significantly increased blood urea nitrogen and serum creatinine after drug administration, compared to rats given cisplatin alone. The results indicated that ATP-MgCl2 worsened in vivo cisplatin renal toxicity in the dog and rat.
