Novel Biomarkers and Echocardiography for Subclinical Cardiac Toxicity in Breast Cancer Patients...

CardiotoxicityHeart Failure4 more

This is a pilot prospective cohort study, in adult female subjects 18-85 years old with a diagnosis of invasive breast cancer who are planned for anthracycline-inclusive chemotherapy and followed up for a time period of 6 months post completion of anthracycline chemotherapy. They will participate in blood and imaging tests with a goal of determining the best method for predicting the occurrence of cardiotoxicity in this subpopulation.

Cardiotoxicity in Metastatic Her 2 Positive Patients Treated With Trastuzumab ,Pertuzumab and Taxanes...

Cardiotoxicity.Anti Her2 Therapy.1 more

Approximately 15-25% of all breast cancers are human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) positive and it has been well known that HER2 overexpression is associated with more aggressive phenotype and poor prognosis with resistance to certain chemotherapeutic agents. Trastuzumab administration as an adjuvant and in metastatic HER2 positive breast cancer is associated with both symptomatic and asymptomatic cardiotoxicity. The incidence of trastuzumab-mediated cardiotoxicity were 27% with antracycline combination and 13% when it was administered with paclitaxel . Pertuzumab, a recombinant humanized monoclonal antibody binding to the HER2 dimerization domain, prevents dimerization of HER2 with other HER receptors (HER3,HER1, and HER4) especially with HER3. Blocking HER2-HER3 dimerization is postulated to be the most clinically relevant action of pertuzumab and this can effectively block her2-mediated cell signaling. Pertuzumab is indicated in combination with trastuzumab and docetaxel for the treatment of patients with HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer who have not received prior anti-HER2 therapy or chemotherapy for metastatic disease. Treatment of breast cancer with pertuzumab plus trastuzumab plus docetaxel as first line treatment until disease progression might be complicated by cardiotoxicity in up to 14.5% of the Patients. Cardinale et al showed that troponin I (TNI) positive identifies trastuzumab-treated patients who are at risk for cardiotoxicity and are unlikely to recover from cardiac dysfunction despite HF therapy. There is very little data about the reversibility and identification of patients at risk for cardiotoxicity of the pertuzumab plus trastuzumab plus docetaxel regimen and of those who will not recover from cardiac dysfunction,this information is crucial. The usefulness of troponin I (TNI) and Brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) in the identification of patients at risk for PT cardiotoxicity and in the prediction of LVEF recovery has never been investigated. based on this background , this study aim is to evaluate the cardiotoxicity of pertuzumab plus trastuzumab plus docetaxel regimen and the application of troponin I (TNI) and Brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) in this setting.

Mazankowski Alberta Heart Institute (MAHI) EchoGo Discovery 1 Protocol

CardiotoxicityCancer

This study aims to compare conventionally acquired Left Ventricle Ejection Fraction (LVEF) and Global Longitudinal Strain (GLS) data to Artificial Intelligence (AI) driven automated processing of 2 dimensional contrast and 2 dimensional non-contrast resting transthoracic echocardiograms for application in the assessment of patients undergoing chemotherapy with cardiotoxic drugs. This is a single-centre retrospective study which utilizes echocardiographic DICOM image and meta-data datasets received from a Canadian site. Data processed using the AI driven automated processing will be compared to conventionally acquired LVEF and GLS measurements and results will be analysed to determine accuracy and precision.

Risk Assessment Model of Trastuzumab-related Cardiotoxicity in Breast Cancer Patients

Cardiac ToxicityAntitumor Drugs1 more

According to the existing clinical data in our hospital, retrospective study was conducted to screen the risk factors with predictive value for TRC(trastuzumab-related cardiotoxicity) risk, and to construct the risk prediction model for TRC.

Early Detection of Cardiac Damage With CMR in Women With Breast Cancer

CardiotoxicityBreast Cancer1 more

With this study the investigators will assess early cardiac damage by means of Global Longitudinal Strain (GLS) in newly diagnosed breast cancer (BC) patients treated with anthracycline-based chemotherapy, and to investigate whether myocardial damage as measured with T1 / T2 Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance (CMR) mapping and plasma hs-Troponin T is related to changes in GLS.

Cardiotoxicity in the Elderly

CardiotoxicityElderly1 more

CARTIER (Cardiotoxicity in the elderly) is a prospective cohort study of newly diagnosed elderly cancer patients equal or greater than 65 years of age conduced in one tertiary center (Hospital Universitario de Salamanca at Spain. The study is academically funded in its integrity by The Instituto de Salud Carlos III (Spanish Ministry of Science, Innovation and Universities). The investigators of the study are the only responsible for the study design, data collection, and data interpretation. All study participants provide written informed consent. All enrolled patients will undergo serial surveys, 6-minutes walking test (6MWT), electrocardiogram, echocardiogram, blood samples, CMR, physical examinations and multidisciplinary clinical evaluations; before each chemotherapy cycle and at 3, 6, 9 and 12 months, 3 years and 5 years after finalization of chemotherapy, except for MRI that will be performed before 1st, 3rd, 5th cycles and at 3, 6, 9,12 months, 3 years and 5 years after chemotherapy ending

Vascular Cardiotoxicity of Ponatinib

Cardiotoxicity

Pre-clinical studies suggest that the third generation tyrosine kinase inhibitor ponatinib can result in microvascular angiopathy and acceleration of atherosclerosis. This study is intended to examine for myocardial microvascular angiopathy and changes in carotid plaque in patients receiving ponatinib as part of their clinical care.

Evaluation of Radiation Induced Toxicity to the Heart by Multi-detector Computed Tomography (MDCT)...

Breast Cancer

The current study is aimed to evaluate various imaging methods, including multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) as potential surrogates to assess the degree of damage caused to the heart by radiation therapy to the breast, in breast cancer survivors many years before it becomes clinically apparent.
