Which of the following drugs produce significant nephrotoxicity?
Carboplatin It is a less reactive second generation platinum compound that is better tolerated and has a toxicity profile different from cisplatin. Nephrotoxicity, ototoxicity and neurotoxicity are low. Nausea and vomiting is milder and is delayed: only infrequently limits the dose. The dose-limiting toxicity is thrombocytopenia and less often leucopenia. Because of less plasma protein binding, it is rapidly eliminated by the kidney (half life 4-6 hr). It is primarily indicated in ovarian carcinoma of epithelial origin, and has shown promise in squamous carcinoma of head and neck, small cell lung cancer and seminoma.
