The role of anti-epithelial growth factor receptor monoclonal antibodies (anti-EGFR MoAbs) in treatment-related electrolyte disorders is still controversial. Therefore, we conducted a meta-analysis of published randomized controlled trials (RCTs) to evaluate the incidences and overall risks of all-grade and grade 3/4 electrolyte disorder events. We searched relevant clinical trials from PubMed, EMBASE, and Web of Knowledge databases, meeting proceedings of American Society of Clinical Oncology and the European Society of Medical Oncology, as well as ClinicalTrials.gov. Eligible studies included phases II, III, and IV RCTs. Statistical analysis was performed to calculate the summary incidence, relative risk (RR), and 95 % confidence intervals (CIs) using fixed effects or random effects models based on the heterogeneity of included studies. A total of 16,411 patients from 25 RCTs were included in this meta-analysis. The all-grade incidence of hypomagnesemia related to anti-EGFR MoAbs was 34.0 % (95 % CI 28.0-40.5 %), and that for hypokalemia and hypocalcemia were 14.5 % (95 % CI 8.2-24.4 %) and 16.8 % (95 % CI 14.2-19.7 %), respectively. Compared with chemotherapy alone in colorectal cancer, addition of cetuximab increased the risk of grade 3/4 hypomagnesemia and grade 3/4 hypokalemia with RRs of 7.14 (95 % CI 3.13-16.27, p &lt; 0.001) and 2.19 (95 % CI 1.14-4.23, p = 0.019). Additionally, colorectal cancer patients in panitumumab cases were more vulnerable to grade 3/4 hypomagnesemia and hypokalemia (RR 18.29, 95 % CI 7.29-48.41, p &lt; 0.001, and RR 3.3, 95 % CI 1.32-8.25, p =  .011). Treatment with anti-EGFR MoAbs is associated with significantly higher risks of electrolyte disorders such as hypomagnesemia, hypomagnesemia, and hypocalcemia, especially in colorectal cancer. Rigorous monitoring and early treatment of electrolyte disorders are proposed.
