    Abstract:
    Forty-five patients with lung carcinoma were randomized to receive CDDP alone (STS (-) group) or combination of sodium thiosulfate (STS (+) group). Among the 45 patients, 42 had primary lung carcinoma and four had metastatic lung carcinoma. The combination of CDDP and STS infusion was performed in twenty-three patients and CDDP alone in 22 patients. The patients given STS were evaluated for renal function and pharmacokinetics. Urinary excretion of beta 2 microglobulin (BMG) and urinary concentration of N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminide (NAG), which reflect the function of the proximal tubules, were almost normal in the STS (+) group, but abnormally high in the STS (-) group. For serum BMG, BUN, creatinine, and 24-h creatinine clearance, which reflect glomerular function, no significant differences were found between the two groups. Urinary platinum excretion over 24 h was 29% in the STS (+) group and 21% in the STS (-) group. Total concentration of serum platinum after 24-h administration of CDDP was 2.1 micrograms/ml in the STS (+) group and 2.4 micrograms/ml in the STS (-) group. This study indicated that the combination of CDDP and STS promotes urinary excretion of CDDP, and rescues the dysfunction of the proximal tubules.
