About this trial

This is an interventional screening trial for Heart Failure

Eligibility Criteria

65 Years - 85 Years (Older Adult)All SexesAccepts Healthy Volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. History of cancer > 10 years ago
  2. Have received potentially toxic chemotherapy Anthracycline (any dose) Trastuzumab (Herceptin) in breast-cancer with the HER2 mutation OR Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (e.g. sunitinib) OR Left chest radiotherapy

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Ejection fraction at baseline echo <50%
  2. Valvular stenosis or regurgitation of >moderate severity
  3. History of previous heart failure (baseline New York Heart Association (NYHA) classification >2)
  4. Systolic BP <110 mmHg
  5. Pulse <60/minute if not on beta blocker
  6. Inability to acquire interpretable images (identified from baseline echo)
  7. Contraindications to beta blockers or angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors
  8. Oncologic (or other) life expectancy <12 months or any other medical condition (including pregnancy) that results in the belief (deemed by the Chief Investigators) that it is not appropriate for the patient to participate in this trial
  9. Already taking both angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors/angiotensin receptor blockers and beta blockers, or intolerance (or allergy) to both.
  10. Unable to provide written informed consent to participate in this study

Active Comparator

Arm Label

Heart failure intervention ( Cardio-Oncology Disease Management Plan (CO-DMP)

Usual care

Arm Description

Optimization of pharmacotherapy: Cardioprotection with angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEi, Ramipril) and beta blocker (Metoprolol).Participants will be initially treated with ramipril at a dose of 1.25 or 2.5mg (according to baseline systemic arterial pressure), once or twice a day, and gradually up-titrated to 10mg/day, or to the maximal-tolerated dose. In patients receiving at least 2.5mg/day of ramipril, metoprolol will be started at an initial dose of 50 (25mg twice a day) and progressively up-titrated to the maximal dose of 100mg/day. Patients will be reviewed every 2 weeks during the up titration phase. Exercise intervention: Individualized training program provided by an exercise physiologist.

Provided by participants' usual healthcare professional(s), guided by a brochure regarding optimal risk factor management addressing hypertension, lipids, alcohol intake and tobacco use.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Change in exercise capacity
Cardio pulmonary fitness (peak oxygen uptake (VO2 peak)) from baseline to follow up.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Medication adherence
proportion of ACEi and beta blocker tablets taken
Neuromuscular strength
Maximal isometric grip strength (kg) assessed using a digital grip strength dynamometer
Endurance
Increase in total exercise duration.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
This is a prospective study in which a process of identifying and reducing heart failure (HF) risk will be applied to cancer survivors >65 years old with chemotherapy >10 years ago. The overall goal of this study to identify the feasibility and value of risk-guided cardiac rehabilitation (exercise, risk factor modification, and behavioural support) as a component of survivorship care.
Detailed Description
Participants enrolled in this study will be randomized to cardio-oncology disease management plan ( CO-DMP) that involves the use of surveillance imaging to detect subclinical left ventricular dysfunction (LVD), clinical review to ensure optimal risk factor control and cardio-protection and exercise/sedentariness intervention. The intervention will be delivered over a period of 12 months. The outcome from this study will show that subclinical LVD is more common among long term cancer survivors, and a CO-DMP is feasible in reducing HF risk factors in this sub group of survivors.
