Capmatinib-Induced Pseudo–Acute Kidney Injury: A Case Report

We present a case of pseudo–acute kidney injury (AKI) following capmatinib therapy in an 84-year-old man with combined non–small cell (adenocarcinoma) and small cell lung cancer with MET exon 14–skipping mutation. His past medical history was significant for chronic kidney disease stage 3 with a baseline serum creatinine (Scr) of 1.6mg/dL rising to 2.44mg/dL (estimated glomerular filtration rate [GFR] 24mL/min/1.73m2) while on capmatinib. Scr improved to 1.84mg/dL with the cessation of capmatinib but rose again to 2.22mg/dL upon resumption of therapy.
