      Background:
      Proteinuria caused by bevacizumab (BV) often becomes an obstacle to continuation of the treatment. Renin-angiotensin system inhibitor (RASI), angiotensin receptor blocker and angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor, has demonstrated anti-proteinuria effect in diabetic nephropathy and nondiabetic kidney disease. This retrospective observational study was conducted to evaluate the anti-proteinuria effect of RASI for NSCLC patients (pts) who received BV chemotherapy.

      Methods:
      We reviewed the medical records of NSCLC pts between 2008 and 2014 at 11 hospitals. Eligible pts had a treatment of BV chemotherapy, no proteinuria, and no diabetes mellitus. Clinical characteristics, use of the antihypertensive drugs, change of the blood pressure, and proteinuria generation were investigated during first 6 courses of BV chemotherapy.

      Results:
      A total of 211 pts were enrolled. Pts characteristics were: male/female 121/90; median age 63 (range 35-88); ECOG performance status 0-1/2-3 199/12; stage Ⅳ/recurrent 189/22; dose of BV(/kg) 7.5mg/15mg 21/190; BV cycle 1-2/3-4/5-6 18/55/138; antihypertensive drugs RASI/non-RASI/none 59/44/108. Proteinuria was observed in 49 pts (23%) as grade 1/2/3 33/14/2. The rate of proteinuria generation was significantly lower in the RASI group than non-RASI group (17% vs. 41%, P=0.025). Multivariate analysis revealed that RASI significantly reduced proteinuria (HR=0.43, 95% CI=0.17-0.91, P=0.043).

      Conclusion:
      RASI demonstrated anti-proteinuria effect for NSCLC pts who received BV therapy.
