摘要
Rasburicase (recombinant urate oxidase) is a uricolytic agent which has been developed for the prevention and treatment of chemotherapy-induced hyperuricaemia at a dosage of 0.15 or 0.2 mg/kg/day in patients with haematological malignancies. Significant reductions from baseline in plasma uric acid levels were seen in 3 noncomparative and 1 randomised comparative trial of rasburicase in patients with, or at high risk of, hyperuricaemia. A multicentre, nonblind, randomised trial found that patients who received intravenous rasburicase 0.2 mg/kg/day experienced an average 2.6-fold less exposure to uric acid than those who received oral allopurinol 10 mg/kg/day. There was no evidence of renal insufficiency in 3 noncomparative trials which monitored creatinine levels to assess renal function during chemotherapy and rasburicase treatment. Rasburicase was generally well tolerated in clinical trials, with skin rashes reported in ≈2% of patients. Bronchospasm, nausea and vomiting, and haemolysis occurred less frequently. In all cases the patients had also received chemotherapy prior to the adverse event.
