  1. Patients diagnosed with cancer
  2. Undergoing chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy/hormone therapy
  3. Age older than 18 years old - maximum age of 90 years old

Arm Label

Oncology patients

Arm Description

Patients diagnosed with cancer and treated with chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Change in peak volume oxygen - VO2 (L/min)
represents the maximum oxygen consumption during incremental exercise that is measured during Cardiopulmonary Exercise test (CPET), being a measure of aerobic capacity of the subject
Change in the minute ventilation/carbon dioxide production (VE/VCO2) slope
this parameter shows the increase in ventilation in response to CO2 production, thus it measures the ventilatory efficiency
Change in the respiratory exchange ratio (RER)
represents the ratio between exhaled CO2 and inhale O2 may quantify the grade of the effort

Secondary Outcome Measures

Change in myocardial work (MW)
Myocardial work (MW) is a non-invasive, less load-dependent echocardiographic parameter obtained during standard transthoracic echography using the pressure-strain loop data. This parameter consists of the following measurements: Global constructive work (GCW) Global wasted work (GWW), Global work index (GWI), and Global work efficiency (GWE)
Change in health status
Self-assessment of the generic health status using the EQ-5D-5L questionnaire. This questionnaire assesses health status in terms of five dimensions: mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression, on a five-level scale. In the evaluation part, the respondents evaluate their overall health status using the visual analogue scale (EQ-VAS) from 0 ('the worst health you can imagine') - 100 ('the best health you can imagine')
Major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE)
nonfatal stroke, nonfatal myocardial infarction, and cardiovascular death

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
This study regarding oncological patients for rehabilitation after specific cancer therapy involves three aims: (1) to evaluate the predictive value of myocardial work parameters on the improvement of exercise performance after rehabilitation, (2) to determine which echocardiographic parameters are more suitable in predicting cardiac dysfunction, and (3) to evaluate the correlation between echocardiographic parameters and fibrosis detected by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR).
Detailed Description
Myocardial work (MW) provides an estimation of cardiac function by combining global longitudinal strain (GLS) with blood pressure values obtained non-invasively, being less load dependent than standard GLS. The investigator hypothesize that myocardial work could be a useful marker for predicting the exercise performance after chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy in oncological patients undergoing rehabilitation. Moreover, this study may provide additional information in optimal selection for rehabilitation programs.
