Abstract Background and Purpose Drug–drug interactions (DDIs) are associated with an increased risk of adverse drug reactions (ADRs). Hospitalized children are particularly vulnerable to DDIs and ADRs due to polypharmacy, frequent use of unlicensed or off‐label medications, and dosing regimens often extrapolated from adult data.

Metabolomic investigation of cisplatin‐induced acute kidney injury in paediatric cancer patients
Aim Cisplatin causes acute kidney injury (AKI) in approximately 46% of paediatric cancer patients who receive it. Serum creatinine (SCr) is a poor biomarker of cisplatin nephrotoxicity, because there is a delay between cisplatin infusion and SCr elevation.

Tobramycin pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic targets in people with cystic fibrosis
Intravenous tobramycin is a first‐line treatment for Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection in people with cystic fibrosis (CF). Tobramycin exhibits concentration‐dependent activity; however, excess drug exposure can lead to nephrotoxicity and ototoxicity. While dosing typically targets serum peak (Cmax) and trough (Cmin) concentrations, the area under the ...

Survivors’ perspectives on cisplatin-induced ototoxicity and barriers to ototoxicity monitoring
Cisplatin-based chemoradiation therapy (CRT) causes ototoxicity in survivors of head and neck (H&N) cancer, but rates of audiologic follow-up are poor. Our objective is to identify (1) QOL domains that are affected by treatment-related ototoxicity and (2) barriers to ototoxicity monitoring among survivors of H&N cancer to inform patient-centered ...
