Management of cancer treatments in hemodialysis patients.

Introduction: The number of cancer patients receiving long-term hemodialysis (HD) is increasing, and HD could jeopardize treatments' safety and efficacy. Therefore, managing anticancer drugs is critical in this frail population. In addition, evidence of HD safety or risk is regularly released both for cytotoxic chemotherapy (CT) or hormone therapy (HT) as well as new therapies with molecularly targeted therapies (MTT), immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI), and a summary of current knowledge is needed.
