Carboplatin Dose - Calvert Formula

Calculate carboplatin dose using the Calvert formula: Dose (mg) = AUC x (eGFR + 25). AUC target 5-7 for combination, 5-6 for relapsed. Uses Cockcroft-Gault or CKD-EPI eGFR in mL/min.

Clinical Guidance

BMI is a screening measure of body size, not a direct measure of body fat. The standard WHO categories are underweight (<18.5), normal (18.5–24.9), overweight (25–29.9), and obese (≥30).

BMI can overestimate body fat in athletes with high muscle mass and underestimate it in older adults with low muscle mass. Interpret it alongside waist circumference and clinical context rather than as a standalone diagnosis.

How It Works

Calculate carboplatin dose using the Calvert formula: Dose (mg) = AUC x (eGFR + 25). AUC target 5-7 for combination, 5-6 for relapsed. Uses Cockcroft-Gault or CKD-EPI eGFR in mL/min

Each component has a specific meaning:

  • Calvert formula: Dose = AUC x — The calvert formula: dose = auc x recorded for the scenario being assessed.

Note: Interpret the carboplatin calvert result against the thresholds and context described above.

How to Use

Enter the Calvert formula: Dose = AUC x for the scenario you are assessing. Calculate carboplatin dose using the Calvert formula: Dose (mg) = AUC x (eGFR + 25). AUC target 5-7 for combination, 5-6 for relapsed. Uses Cockcroft-Gault or CKD-EPI eGFR in mL/min. Use the carboplatin calvert result to inform your calculation.
