Paul Matte: Proud to present our work at ESMO TAT 2025
Paul Matte, Member of the ITO Editorial Board, shared a post on LinkedIn:
“Proud to present our work at ESMO TAT 2025 in Paris!
Today, I had the privilege of presenting our poster on «Renal function-based exclusion criteria in early-phase oncology clinical trials, the EXKID study».
Chronic kidney disease remains a frequent exclusion criterion in early-phase trials, often due to pharmacokinetic and safety concerns. Our study highlights the prevalent use of outdated renal function assessment methods, such as Cockcroft-Gault, despite its well-known limitations—particularly in patients with altered body composition (e.g., cancer-related cachexia).
We advocate for the adoption of more precise renal function estimation methods, like cystatin C-based clearance, to improve patient safety, drug dosing, and trial inclusivity.
A huge thank you to Matthieu Delaye, Matthieu Roulleaux Dugage and Christophe Massard for their invaluable contributions to this study.”
