Abstract
Anthracyclines can cause cancer therapy-related cardiac dysfunction (CTRCD) that adversely affects prognosis. Despite guideline recommendations, only half of the patients undergo surveillance echocardiograms. An AI model detecting reduced left ventricular ejection fraction from 12-lead electrocardiograms (ECG) (AI-EF model) suggests ECG features reflect left ventricular pathophysiology. We hypothesized that AI could predict CTRCD from baseline ECG, leveraging the AI-EF model's insights, and developed the AI-CTRCD model using transfer learning on the AI-EF model. In 1011 anthracycline-treated patients, 8.7% experienced CTRCD. High AI-CTRCD scores indicated elevated CTRCD risk (hazard ratio (HR), 2.66; 95% CI 1.73-4.10; log-rank p < 0.001). This remained consistent after adjusting for risk factors (adjusted HR, 2.57; 95% CI 1.62-4.10; p < 0.001). AI-CTRCD score enhanced prediction beyond known factors (time-dependent AUC for 2 years: 0.78 with AI-CTRCD score vs. 0.74 without; p = 0.005). In conclusion, the AI model robustly stratified CTRCD risk from baseline ECG.

Abstract
Advances in cancer treatments have led to nearly 17 million survivors in the US today. Cardiovascular complications attributed to cancer treatments are the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in cancer survivors. In response, NCI and NHLBI held 2 workshops and issued funding opportunities to strengthen research on cardiotoxicity. A representative portfolio of NIH grants categorizing basic, interventional, and observational projects is presented. Compared with anthracyclines, research on radiation therapy and newer treatments is underrepresented. Multidisciplinary collaborative research that considers the cardiotoxicity stage and optimizes the balance between cardiovascular risk and cancer-treatment benefit might support continued improvements in cancer outcomes.

Abstract
Cancer is a destructive disease that causes high levels of morbidity and mortality. Doxorubicin (DOX) is a highly efficient antineoplastic chemotherapeutic drug, but its use places survivors at risk for cardiotoxicity. Many studies have demonstrated that multiple factors are involved in DOX-induced acute cardiotoxicity. Among them, oxidative stress and cell death predominate. In this review, we provide a comprehensive overview of the mechanisms underlying the source and effect of free radicals and dependent cell death pathways induced by DOX. Hence, we attempt to explain the cellular mechanisms of oxidative stress and cell death that elicit acute cardiotoxicity and provide new insights for researchers to discover potential therapeutic strategies to prevent or reverse doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity.

Abstract
OPINION STATEMENT Lung cancer is the most common form of cancer in humans and the leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide. Traditionally, lung cancer has been diagnosed as either small cell lung cancer (SCLC) or non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, recent developments in molecular pathology have revolutionized the diagnosis and treatment of the disease, thus improving patient prognosis and increasing the number of survivors. In advanced NSCLC cases, molecularly targeted drugs for patients with positive driver gene mutation/rearrangement, and immune checkpoint inhibitors for those with a positive biomarker, have changed the standard of care. SCLC is a highly malignant entity. In addition to the chemotherapy and radiotherapy, immune checkpoint inhibitors have recently provided some hope for extended-stage SCLC. Smoking cessation is related to decreased morbidity. However, early metastasis remains a significant challenge. Recently, cancer therapy-related cardiovascular disease (CTRCD) has emerged as diverse pathophysiology, including fulminant myocarditis, fatal arrhythmia, pericarditis, hypertension, and thrombosis, that emerged with modern lung cancer therapies. Cardio-oncology is a new interdisciplinary collaboration to develop methodologies to manage cardiovascular risk factors and CTRCDs with the common goal of minimizing unnecessary interruption of cancer treatment and maximizing outcomes of lung cancer survivors.

Abstract
With the development of new drugs, such as molecular-targeted drugs, and multidisciplinary therapies, cancer treatment outcomes have improved, and the number of cancer survivors is increasing every year. However, some chemotherapeutic agents cause cardiovascular complications (cancer treatment-related cardiovascular disease, CTRCVD), which affect the life prognosis and quality of life (QOL) of cancer patients. Therefore, it is necessary to select treatment methods that take into account the prognosis and QOL of cancer patients, and to take measures against CTRCVD. The mechanism of cardiotoxicity of high-risk drugs, such as doxorubicin and HER2 inhibitors, are still unclear; genetic factors, and cardiovascular disease risk factors (e.g., hypertension, dyslipidemia, and diabetes) are associated with CTRCVD progression. The establishment of methods for prevention, early diagnosis, and treatment of CTRCVD and the generation of evidence for these methods are needed. It is also necessary to develop screening methods for chemotherapy cardiotoxicity. In this review, we discuss the current status of CTRCVD, its complications, and expected countermeasures.

Abstract
Although cardiovascular toxicity from traditional chemotherapies has been well recognized for decades, the recent explosion of effective novel targeted cancer therapies with cardiovascular sequelae has driven the emergence of cardio-oncology as a new clinical and research field. Cardiovascular toxicity associated with cancer therapy can manifest as a broad range of potentially life-threatening complications, including heart failure, arrhythmia, myocarditis, and vascular events. Beyond toxicology, the intersection of cancer and heart disease has blossomed to include discovery of genetic and environmental risk factors that predispose to both. There is a pressing need to understand the underlying molecular mechanisms of cardiovascular toxicity to improve outcomes in patients with cancer. Preclinical cardiovascular models, ranging from cellular assays to large animals, serve as the foundation for mechanistic studies, with the ultimate goal of identifying biologically sound biomarkers and cardioprotective therapies that allow the optimal use of cancer treatments while minimizing toxicities. Given that novel cancer therapies target specific pathways integral to normal cardiovascular homeostasis, a better mechanistic understanding of toxicity may provide insights into fundamental pathways that lead to cardiovascular disease when dysregulated. The goal of this scientific statement is to summarize the strengths and weaknesses of preclinical models of cancer therapy-associated cardiovascular toxicity, to highlight overlapping mechanisms driving cancer and cardiovascular disease, and to discuss opportunities to leverage cardio-oncology models to address important mechanistic questions relevant to all patients with cardiovascular disease, including those with and without cancer.

Abstract
Background: The prognosis of cancer survivors has dramatically improved, but effective strategies for cancer treatment-related cardiovascular disorders (CTRCD) remain to be elucidated in the emerging field of cardio-oncology. In this study, we investigated risk factors for CTRCD in breast cancer patients treated with trastuzumab. Methods and Results: We performed a retrospective analysis of 141 consecutive women who received adjuvant trastuzumab, and underwent baseline (BL) and follow-up (FU) echocardiography at Juntendo University between April 2010 and December 2016. The major concomitant treatment was anthracyclines in 94% and radiotherapy in 53%. During the median treatment period of 11 months, there were 22 (15.6%) cardiology consultations, 3 (2.1%) treatment interruptions with irreversible CTRCD, and no deaths. Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) was decreased from a median 67.5% (BL) to 63.4% (FU; P<0.0001), with reduced LVEF noted in 26.2% at FU<90%BL, in 13.5% at FU

Abstract
Patients with cancer are often at elevated risk for cardiovascular disease due to overlapping risk factors and cardiotoxic anticancer treatments. Their cancer diagnoses may be the predominant focus of clinical care, with less of an emphasis on concurrent cardiovascular risk management. Widely adopted technology platforms, including electronic health records and mobile devices, can be leveraged to improve the cardiovascular outcomes of these patients. These technologies alone may be insufficient to change behavior and may have greater impact if combined with behavior change strategies. Behavioral economics is a scientific field that uses insights from economics and psychology to help explain why individuals are often predictably irrational. Combining insights from behavioral economics with these scalable technology platforms can positively impact medical decision-making and sustained healthy behaviors. This review focuses on the principles of behavioral economics and how "nudges" and scalable technology can be used to positively impact clinician and patient behaviors.
