Work out chemotherapy dose (carboplatin) instantly with clear inputs, formula shown and shareable results.
Applies the Calvert formula, which sets the carboplatin dose from the target area under the curve and renal function plus a fixed non-renal clearance of 25.
Calvert formula
Dose (mg) = target AUC (mg/mL/min) x (GFR mL/min + 25)
Educational estimate only. Not a substitute for professional clinical judgement, and must not be used to make treatment or dosing decisions.
Estimated GFR above 125 mL/min is unreliable and uncapped values can produce dangerous overdoses.
The Calvert formula was validated with isotopic GFR; creatinine-based estimates are substitutes and must follow local policy.
