The goal of this a retrospective real-world study is to compare the AKI events in cancer patients receiving anti-vascular endothelial growth factor monoclonal antibody (AntiVEGF) vs immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs). The main question it aims to answer is whether the choice between AntiVEGF and ICIs affects the risks of acute kidney injury in cancer patients. Cancer patients receiving AntiVEGF will be compared to those treated with ICIs to see if the AKI incidence is higher in patients receiving ICIs.
