Venous thromboembolic events in patients with lung cancer treated with cisplatin-based versus carboplatin/nedaplatin-based chemotherapy

imageAn association between chemotherapy and venous thromboembolic events (VTEs) in patients with cancer is well established, with cisplatin (CDDP) being one of the most well-studied risk factors. However, whether CDDP is more strongly associated with occurrence of VTEs than carboplatin (CBDCA) or nedaplatin (CDGP) is controversial. Our purposes were to characterize patients with lung cancer and in-hospital VTEs, identify risk factors associated with VTEs, and compare the risks associated with CDDP-based versus CBDCA/CDGP-based chemotherapy. We retrospectively identified patients with lung cancer who underwent platinum-based chemotherapy from April 2012 to March 2015 from a national inpatient database in Japan. We used multivariable logistic regression analysis to analyze associations between various factors, including chemotherapy regimens and VTE. Of 235 104 eligible patients, 675 (0.29%) had VTEs after receiving platinum-based chemotherapy while hospitalized. Multivariable analysis showed that age, activity of daily living index, and invasive medical procedures were significant risk factors for the occurrence of VTE. Furthermore, CDDP-based chemotherapy was associated with a higher rate of VTE than CBDCA/CDGP-based chemotherapy (adjusted odds ratio: 1.35; 95% confidence interval: 1.08–1.68; P
