Predictive Factors of Therapy-Related Cardiovascular Events in Patients with Lymphoma Receiving Anthracyclines. Med Sci (Basel) 2024; 12:23. [PMID: 38804379 PMCID: PMC11130872 DOI: 10.3390/medsci12020023] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/03/2024] [Revised: 04/11/2024] [Accepted: 04/13/2024] [Indexed: 05/29/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Cancer-therapy-related cardiac dysfunction (CTRCD) is a growing concern for public health, with a growing incidence due to improved survival rates of patients with hematological malignancies due to diagnostic and therapeutic advances. The identification of patients at risk for CTRCD is vital to developing preventive strategies. METHODS A single-center retrospective cohort study was conducted between 1 January 2017 and 15 February 2023. Medical records of patients with lymphoma treated with first-line anthracyclines were reviewed. Demographic data, cardiovascular risk factors, biomarkers of myocardial damage, and echocardiographic information were collected. RESULTS A total of 200 patients were included. The incidence of CTRCD was 17.4% (35/200). Patients with CTRCD were older than those without CTRCD, with a mean age of 65.17 years vs. 56.77 (p = 0.008). Dyslipidemia (DL) (31.4% vs. 13.4% p = 0.017) and previous cardiovascular disease (40% vs. 13.3%; p < 0.001) were more frequent in the group who developed an event. Mean baseline NT-proBNP levels in the subgroup with cardiovascular events were 388.73 kg/L ± 101.02, and they were 251.518 kg/L ± 26.22 in those who did not (p = 0.004). Differences in Troponin I levels were identified during and after treatment without exceeding the laboratory's upper reference limit. Patients were followed for a median of 51.83 months (0.76-73.49). The presence of a CTCRD event had a negative impact on overall mortality from any cause (HR = 2.23 (95% CI: 1.08-2.93); p = 0.031). CONCLUSIONS Early identification of risk factors is crucial to manage patients at risk for CTRCD.

Abstract
To address the current and long-term unmet health needs of the growing population of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) patients, we established the Lymphoma Epidemiology of Outcomes (LEO) cohort study (NCT02736357; https://leocohort.org/). A total of 7735 newly diagnosed patients aged 18 years and older with NHL were prospectively enrolled from 7/1/2015 to 5/31/2020 at 8 academic centers in the United States. The median age at diagnosis was 62 years (range, 18-99). Participants came from 49 US states and included 538 Black/African-Americans (AA), 822 Hispanics (regardless of race), 3386 women, 716 age <40 years, and 1513 rural residents. At study baseline, we abstracted clinical, pathology, and treatment data; banked serum/plasma (N = 5883, 76.0%) and germline DNA (N = 5465, 70.7%); constructed tissue microarrays for four major NHL subtypes (N = 1189); and collected quality of life (N = 5281, 68.3%) and epidemiologic risk factor (N = 4489, 58.0%) data. Through August 2022, there were 1492 deaths. Compared to population-based SEER data (2015-2019), LEO participants had a similar distribution of gender, AA race, Hispanic ethnicity, and NHL subtype, while LEO was underrepresented for patients who were Asian and aged 80 years and above. Observed overall survival rates for LEO at 1 and 2 years were similar to population-based SEER rates for indolent B-cell (follicular and marginal zone) and T-cell lymphomas, but were 10%-15% higher than SEER rates for aggressive B-cell subtypes (diffuse large B-cell and mantle cell). The LEO cohort is a robust and comprehensive national resource to address the role of clinical, tumor, host genetic, epidemiologic, and other biologic factors in NHL prognosis and survivorship.

Anthracyclines and the risk of arrhythmias: A systematic review and meta-analysis. Medicine (Baltimore) 2023; 102:e35770. [PMID: 37986405 PMCID: PMC10659615 DOI: 10.1097/md.0000000000035770] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/08/2023] [Revised: 09/08/2023] [Accepted: 10/03/2023] [Indexed: 11/22/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND There have been controversial findings from recent studies regarding anthracyclines use and the subsequent risk of arrhythmias. This study aimed to evaluate the existing evidence of the risk of arrhythmias in patients treated with anthracyclines. METHODS PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science databases were searched up to April 2022 using keywords such as "anthracycline" and "arrhythmia." Dichotomous data were presented as relative risk (RR) and confidence interval (CI), while continuous data were presented as mean difference (MD) and CI. Revman software version 5.4 was used for the analysis. RESULTS Thirteen studies were included with a total of 26891 subjects. Pooled analysis showed that anthracyclines therapy was significantly associated with a higher risk of arrhythmia (RR: 1.58; 95% CI: 1.41-1.76; P < .00001), ST segment and T wave abnormalities (RR: 1.73, 95% CI: 1.18-2.55, P = .005), conduction abnormalities and AV block (RR = 1.86, 95% CI = 1.06-3.25, P = .03), and tachycardia (RR: 1.736, 95% CI: 1.11-2.69, P = .02). Further analyses of the associations between anthracyclines and atrial flutter (RR = 1.30, 95% CI = 0.29-5.89, P = .74), atrial ectopic beats (RR: 1.27, 95% CI: 0.78-2.05, P = .34), and ventricular ectopic beats (RR: 0.93, 95% CI: 0.53-1.65, P = .81) showed no statistically significant results. Higher doses of anthracycline were associated with a higher risk of arrhythmias (RR: 1.49; 95% CI: 1.08-2.05; P = .02) compared to the lower doses (RR: 1.36; 95% CI: 1.00-1.85; P = .05). Newer generations of Anthracycline maintained the arrhythmogenic properties of previous generations, such as Doxorubicin. CONCLUSION Anthracyclines therapy was significantly associated with an increased risk of arrhythmias. Accordingly, Patients treated with anthracyclines should be screened for ECG abnormalities and these drugs should be avoided in patients susceptible to arrhythmia. The potential benefit of the administration of prophylactic anti-fibrotic and anti-arrhythmic drugs should also be explored.

An evaluation based on relative treatment intensity in older patients treated with reduced-dose R-THP-COP therapy for diffuse large B-cell lymphoma: A multicenter retrospective cohort study. J Geriatr Oncol 2023; 14:101396. [PMID: 36328877 DOI: 10.1016/j.jgo.2022.10.011] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/04/2022] [Revised: 09/14/2022] [Accepted: 10/18/2022] [Indexed: 12/23/2022]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION The number of older patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is increasing. Although the standard treatment for newly diagnosed younger patients with DLBCL has been established, no consensus has been reached regarding the optimal chemotherapy intensity and regimen for older patients with DLBCL. In addition, no method for evaluating treatment intensity in retrospective studies when different numbers of chemotherapy courses are administered has been elucidated. MATERIALS AND METHODS A multicenter retrospective analysis was conducted to evaluate the outcomes of a reduced-dose R-THP-COP regimen, which included 30 mg/m2 of pirarubicin, in 54 patients with DLBCL who were aged ≥75. To assess treatment intensity, we defined the relative treatment intensity (RTI) as the number of courses administered multiplied by the relative dose intensity (RDI). RESULTS The estimated four-year overall survival rates (OS) of the patients aged 75-80 and ≥ 80 were 55.1% and 60.6%, respectively. There was no significant difference in four-year OS between these age groups. In our cohort, there was no significant difference in the estimated four-year OS between the patients who received reduced-dose R-THP-COP at an RDI of ≥61% and those that received it at an RDI of <61% (P = 0.35). On the other hand, the patients who received reduced-dose R-THP-COP at an RTI of ≥2.7 exhibited a significantly higher estimated four-year OS than those treated at an RTI of <2.7 (68.5% vs. 28.7%; P < 0.001). Multivariate analysis revealed that the RTI was a significant independent predictor of OS. The cumulative incidence of treatment-related mortality (TRM) at one year was 4.2% and 3.4% in the 75-80 and ≥ 80 age groups, respectively. The cumulative incidence of TRM was significantly worse among the patients with Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) scores of ≥2 than among those with CCI scores of 0 or 1. DISCUSSION Our study suggests that the reduced-dose R-THP-COP regimen is a suitable treatment option for older patients with DLBCL, especially those with CCI scores of <2. Our study also showed that the RTI may be a valuable tool for assessing treatment intensity in retrospective studies involving older patients.
