AMONDYS 45 - casimersen injection
- Product / population
- AMONDYS 45 intravenous casimersen in Duchenne muscular dystrophy with an exon-45-skipping-amenable mutation; renal monitoring is not a creatinine-only dose table.
- Renal measure
- DMD monitoring: cystatin C, urine protein and optional measured GFR; no validated eGFR-based adjustment

Renal dosing, restrictions and evidence limits
Before treatment measure cystatin C, urine dipstick and urine protein-to-creatinine ratio; consider measured GFR using an exogenous filtration marker. Reduced muscle mass makes creatinine unreliable in DMD.
Check urine dipstick monthly and cystatin C/protein-to-creatinine ratio every three months. Collect urine before an infusion or at least 48 hours afterward; alternatively use a protein assay without pyrogallol red to avoid drug-related false positivity. Persistent cystatin C elevation or proteinuria warrants pediatric-nephrology evaluation.
The renal study in non-DMD adults cannot establish an eGFR-based adjustment for DMD. Section 8.6 provides no specific adjustment recommendation and calls for closer monitoring in known impairment.
