Abstract

The estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) equation had been historically calculated inclusive of a race coefficient. However, in September 2021, the NKF and the American Society of Nephrology Task Force announced a new race-free calculation for eGFR due to criticism around racial disparities. Aspects of treatment decisions for muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) such as cisplatin-based neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) eligibility depend on eGFR due to potential nephrotoxic effects.
