Reporting of adverse events of treatment interventions in multiple myeloma: an overview of systematic reviews. Ann Hematol 2024; 103:2681-2697. [PMID: 37935924 PMCID: PMC11283434 DOI: 10.1007/s00277-023-05517-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/14/2023] [Accepted: 10/18/2023] [Indexed: 11/09/2023]
Abstract
The present study is an overview of systematic reviews focusing on adverse events of antimyeloma treatments. It provides a systematic description of adverse events as they are reported in the systematic reviews as well as a critical appraisal of included reviews. We conducted a comprehensive literature search in the most widely used electronic databases looking for systematic reviews that had an adverse event of an antimyeloma treatment intervention as primary outcome. Two independent reviewers conducted selection of included studies and data extraction on predesigned online forms and assessed study quality using AMSTAR 2. Overall corrected covered area (CCA) was calculated to examine the overlap of primary studies across systematic reviews. After screening eligible studies, 23 systematic reviews were included in this overview. Seven reviews with overall CCA of 14.7% examined cardiovascular adverse events of different drugs, including immunomodulatory drugs and proteasome inhibitors (mainly carfilzomib). Nine focused on infections, presenting with overall CCA of 5.8%, each one focused on a different drug or drug class. Three studied thromboembolism in patients treated either with lenalidomide, any immunomodulatory drug, or with daratumumab and had an overall CCA equal to 1.5%. Four more reviews focused on bortezomib-associated neurotoxicity, carfilzomib-associated renal toxicity, or second primary malignancies as an adverse event of lenalidomide or anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody treatment. The quality of included studies as judged by AMSTAR 2 was mostly critically low. Absence of a priori registered protocol and formal assessment of risk of bias of included primary studies were the most common shortcomings. Reporting of antimyeloma drug-associated toxicity is supported by multiple systematic reviews; nevertheless, methodological quality of existing reviews is mostly low.

[PMID: 38523673 PMCID: PMC10958230 DOI: 10.1016/j.gendis.2023.06.037] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/22/2023] [Revised: 05/10/2023] [Accepted: 06/27/2023] [Indexed: 03/26/2024] Open
Abstract
Protein homeostasis is the basis of normal life activities, and the proteasome family plays an extremely important function in this process. The proteasome 20S is a concentric circle structure with two α rings and two β rings overlapped. The proteasome 20S can perform both ATP-dependent and non-ATP-dependent ubiquitination proteasome degradation by binding to various subunits (such as 19S, 11S, and 200 PA), which is performed by its active subunit β1, β2, and β5. The proteasome can degrade misfolded, excess proteins to maintain homeostasis. At the same time, it can be utilized by tumors to degrade over-proliferate and unwanted proteins to support their growth. Proteasomes can affect the development of tumors from several aspects including tumor signaling pathways such as NF-κB and p53, cell cycle, immune regulation, and drug resistance. Proteasome-encoding genes have been found to be overexpressed in a variety of tumors, providing a potential novel target for cancer therapy. In addition, proteasome inhibitors such as bortezomib, carfilzomib, and ixazomib have been put into clinical application as the first-line treatment of multiple myeloma. More and more studies have shown that it also has different therapeutic effects in other tumors such as hepatocellular carcinoma, non-small cell lung cancer, glioblastoma, and neuroblastoma. However, proteasome inhibitors are not much effective due to their tolerance and singleness in other tumors. Therefore, further studies on their mechanisms of action and drug interactions are needed to investigate their therapeutic potential.

Abstract
Carfilzomib (CFZ), a proteasome inhibitor commonly used in the treatment of multiple myeloma (MM), exhibits limited clinical application due to its cardiotoxicity. In our study, electroacupuncture (EA) at Neiguan acupoint (PC6) effectively reversed CFZ-induced reduction in ejection fraction (EF) and fractional shortening (FS), demonstrating great potential effect for heart protection. Through comparative analysis of the transcriptome profile from heart samples of mice treated with DMSO control, CFZ injection, and EA stimulation, we identified a total of 770 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in CFZ (vs. Control) group and 329 DEGs in EA (vs. CFZ) group. Specifically, CFZ (vs. Control) group exhibited 65 up-regulated DEGs and 705 down-regulated DEGs, while EA (vs. CFZ) group displayed 251 up-regulated DEGs and 78 down-regulated DEGs. Metascape analysis revealed that among these treatment groups, there were 137 co-expressed DEGs remarkably enriched in skeletal system development, cellular response to growth factor stimulus, negative regulation of Wnt signaling pathway, and muscle contraction. The expression patterns of miR-8114, Myl4, Col1a1, Tmem163, Myl7, Sln, and Fxyd3, which belong to the top 30 DEGs, were verified by quantitative real-time PCR (RT-qPCR). In summary, this study firstly discloses novel insights into the regulatory mechanisms underlying PC6-based EA therapy against CFZ-induced cardiotoxicity, potentially serving as a theoretical foundation for further clinical applications.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Proteasome inhibitors are the backbone of AL amyloidosis treatment - bortezomib being most widely used. Carfilzomib is a proteasome inhibitor licenced to treat multiple myeloma; autonomic and peripheral neuropathy are uncommon toxicities with carfilzomib. There is limited data on the use of carfilzomib in AL amyloidosis. Here, we report the results of a phase Ib dose-escalation study of Carfilzomib-Thalidomide-Dexamethasone (KTD) in relapsed/refractory AL amyloidosis. RESULTS The trial registered 11 patients from 6 UK centres from September 2017 to January 2019; 10 patients received at least one dose of trial treatment. 80 adverse events were reported from 10 patients in the 1st three cycles. One patient experienced dose-limiting toxicity (acute kidney injury) at a dose of 45 mg/m2, and another patient had a SAR (fever). Five patients experienced an AE ≥ grade 3. There were no haematologic, infectious, or cardiac AE ≥ grade 3. The overall haematological response rate (ORR) at the end of three cycles of treatment was 60%. CONCLUSION Carfilzomib 45 mg/m2 weekly can be safely given with thalidomide and dexamethasone. The efficacy and tolerability profile appears comparable to other agents in relapsed AL amyloidosis. These data provide a framework for further studies of carfilzomib combinations in AL amyloidosis.

Abstract
Introduction: In the last few decades, there has been a rapid development in cancer therapies and improved detection strategies, hence the death rates caused by cancer have decreased. However, it has been reported that cardiovascular disease has become the second leading cause of long-term morbidity and fatality among cancer survivors. Cardiotoxicity from anticancer drugs affects the heart's function and structure and can occur during any stage of the cancer treatments, which leads to the development of cardiovascular disease. Objectives: To investigate the association between anticancer drugs for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and cardiotoxicity as to whether: different classes of anticancer drugs demonstrate different cardiotoxicity potentials; different dosages of the same drug in initial treatment affect the degree of cardiotoxicity; and accumulated dosage and/or duration of treatments affect the degree of cardiotoxicity. Methods: This systematic review included studies involving patients over 18 years old with NSCLC and excluded studies in which patients' treatments involve radiotherapy only. Electronic databases and registers including Cochrane Library, National Cancer Institute (NCI) Database, PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, ClinicalTrials.gov and the European Union Clinical Trials Register were systematically searched from the earliest available date up until November 2020. A full version protocol of this systematic review (CRD42020191760) had been published on PROSPERO. Results: A total of 1785 records were identified using specific search terms through the databases and registers; 74 eligible studies were included for data extraction. Based on data extracted from the included studies, anticancer drugs for NSCLC that are associated with cardiovascular events include bevacizumab, carboplatin, cisplatin, crizotinib, docetaxel, erlotinib, gemcitabine and paclitaxel. Hypertension was the most reported cardiotoxicity as 30 studies documented this cardiovascular adverse event. Other reported treatment-related cardiotoxicities include arrhythmias, atrial fibrillation, bradycardia, cardiac arrest, cardiac failure, coronary artery disease, heart failure, ischemia, left ventricular dysfunction, myocardial infarction, palpitations, and tachycardia. Conclusion: The findings of this systematic review have provided a better understanding of the possible association between cardiotoxicities and anticancer drugs for NSCLC. Whilst variation is observed across different drug classes, the lack of information available on cardiac monitoring can result in underestimation of this association.

Abstract
Improvements in the treatment of childhood cancer have considerably enhanced survival rates over the last decades to over 80% as of today. However, this great achievement has been accompanied by the occurrence of several early and long-term treatment-related complications major of which is cardiotoxicity. This article reviews the contemporary definition of cardiotoxicity, older and newer chemotherapeutic agents that are mainly involved in cardiotoxicity, routine process diagnoses, and methods using omics technology for early and preventive diagnosis. Chemotherapeutic agents and radiation therapies have been implicated as a cause of cardiotoxicity. In response, the area of cardio-oncology has developed into a crucial element of oncologic patient care, committed to the early diagnosis and treatment of adverse cardiac events. However, routine diagnosis and the monitoring of cardiotoxicity rely on electrocardiography and echocardiography. For the early detection of cardiotoxicity, in recent years, major studies have been conducted using biomarkers such as troponin, N-terminal pro b-natriuretic peptide, etc. Despite the refinements in diagnostics, severe limitations still exist due to the increase in the above-mentioned biomarkers only after significant cardiac damage has occurred. Lately, the research has expanded by introducing new technologies and finding new markers using the omics approach. These new markers could be used not only for early detection but also for the early prevention of cardiotoxicity. Omics science, which includes genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics, offers new opportunities for biomarker discovery in cardiotoxicity and may provide an understanding of the mechanisms of cardiotoxicity beyond traditional technologies.

Abstract
Cardiovascular disease and cancer are 2 of the leading causes of death worldwide. Although improvements in outcomes have been noted for both disease entities, the success of cancer therapies has come at the cost of at times very impactful adverse events such as cardiovascular events. Hypertension has been noted as both, a side effect as well as a risk factor for the cardiotoxicity of cancer therapies. Some of these dynamics are in keeping with the role of hypertension as a cardiovascular risk factor not only for heart failure, but also for the development of coronary and cerebrovascular disease, and kidney disease and its association with a higher morbidity and mortality overall. Other aspects such as the molecular mechanisms underlying the amplification of acute and long-term cardiotoxicity risk of anthracyclines and increase in blood pressure with various cancer therapeutics remain to be elucidated. In this review, we cover the latest clinical data regarding the risk of hypertension across a spectrum of novel anticancer therapies as well as the underlying known or postulated pathophysiological mechanisms. Furthermore, we review the acute and long-term implications for the amplification of the development of cardiotoxicity with drugs not commonly associated with hypertension such as anthracyclines. An outline of management strategies, including pharmacological and lifestyle interventions as well as models of care aimed to facilitate early detection and more timely management of hypertension in patients with cancer and survivors concludes this review, which overall aims to improve both cardiovascular and cancer-specific outcomes.

Molecular Cardiotoxic Effects of Proteasome Inhibitors Carfilzomib and Ixazomib and Their Combination with Dexamethasone Involve Mitochondrial Dysregulation. Cardiovasc Toxicol 2023; 23:121-131.

Abstract
With the development and approval of new proteasome inhibitors, proteasome inhibition is increasingly recognized in cancer therapy. Besides successful anti-cancer effects in hematological cancers, side effects such as cardiotoxicity are limiting effective treatment. In this study, we used a cardiomyocyte model to investigate the molecular cardiotoxic mechanisms of carfilzomib (CFZ) and ixazomib (IXZ) alone or in combination with the immunomodulatory drug dexamethasone (DEX) which is frequently used in combination therapies in the clinic. According to our findings, CFZ showed a higher cytotoxic effect at lower concentrations than IXZ. DEX combination attenuated the cytotoxicity for both proteasome inhibitors. All drug treatments caused a marked increase in K48 ubiquitination. Both CFZ and IXZ caused an upregulation in cellular and endoplasmic reticulum stress protein (HSP90, HSP70, GRP94, and GRP78) levels and DEX combination attenuated the increased stress protein levels. Importantly, IXZ and IXZ-DEX treatments caused upregulation of mitochondria fission and fusion gene expression levels higher than caused by CFZ and CFZ-DEX combination. The IXZ-DEX combination reduced the levels of OXPHOS proteins (Complex II-V) more than the CFZ-DEX combination. Reduced mitochondrial membrane potential and ATP production were detected with all drug treatments in cardiomyocytes. Our findings suggest that the cardiotoxic effect of proteasome inhibitors may be due to their class effect and stress response and mitochondrial dysfunction may be involved in the cardiotoxicity process.

Abstract
Proteasome inhibitors (PIs) are the backbone of combination treatments for patients with multiple myeloma and AL amyloidosis, while also indicated in Waldenström's macroglobulinemia and other malignancies. PIs act on proteasome peptidases, causing proteome instability due to accumulating aggregated, unfolded, and/or damaged polypeptides; sustained proteome instability then induces cell cycle arrest and/or apoptosis. Carfilzomib, an intravenous irreversible PI, exhibits a more severe cardiovascular toxicity profile as compared with the orally administered ixazomib or intravenous reversible PI such as bortezomib. Cardiovascular toxicity includes heart failure, hypertension, arrhythmias, and acute coronary syndromes. Because PIs are critical components of the treatment of hematological malignancies and amyloidosis, managing their cardiovascular toxicity involves identifying patients at risk, diagnosing toxicity early at the preclinical level, and offering cardioprotection if needed. Future research is required to elucidate underlying mechanisms, improve risk stratification, define the optimal management strategy, and develop new PIs with safe cardiovascular profiles.

EXCLI JOURNAL 2023; 22:146-168. [PMID: 36998701 PMCID: PMC10043448 DOI: 10.17179/excli2022-5653] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/02/2022] [Accepted: 01/12/2023] [Indexed: 04/01/2023]
Abstract
Bortezomib (BTZ) is a first-in-class reversible and selective proteasome inhibitor. It inhibits the ubiquitin proteasome pathway that leads to the degradation of many intracellular proteins. Initially, BTZ was FDA approved for the treatment of refractory or relapsed multiple myeloma (MM) in 2003. Later, its usage was approved for patients with previously untreated MM. In 2006, BTZ was approved for the treatment of relapsed or refractory Mantle Cell Lymphoma (MCL) and, in 2014, for previously untreated MCL. BTZ has been extensively studied either alone or in combination with other drugs for the treatment of different liquid tumors especially in MM. However, limited data evaluated the efficacy and safety of using BTZ in patients with solid tumors. In this review, we will discuss the advanced and novel mechanisms of action of BTZ documented in MM, solid tumors and liquid tumors. Moreover, we will shed the light on the newly discovered pharmacological effects of BTZ in other prevalent diseases.

Abstract
AbstractMultiple myeloma (MM) accounts for ∼10% of total hematologic malignancies worldwide. In India, the incidence of MM has increased two-fold with marked heterogeneity. Significant improvements in terms of clinical outcomes have been observed in the management of MM in recent years. However, most patients develop a disease relapse with the first or subsequent treatments. A combination of immunomodulatory drugs (thalidomide and lenalidomide) and proteasome inhibitors (PIs; bortezomib) has been the mainstay for the therapeutic management of relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM). This review highlights the management of RRMM with newer agents such as belantamab, carfilzomib, daratumumab, elotuzumab, ixazomib, mafadotin, selinexor, panobinostat, and venetoclax, with more focus on PIs. As a single agent and in combination with other drugs including dexamethasone and carfilzomib has been studied extensively and approved by the United States, European Union, and India. Clinical trials of these newer agents, either alone or in combination, for the treatment of RRMM in Western countries indicate survival, improved outcomes, and overall well-being. However, evidence in Indian patients is evolving from ongoing studies on carfilzomib and daratumumab, which will ascertain their efficacy and safety. Currently, several guidelines recommend carfilzomib-based, daratumumab-based, and panobinostat-based regimens in RRMM patients. Currently, with more accessible generic versions of these drugs, more Indian patients may attain survival benefits and improved quality of life.

Abstract
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) accounts for nearly 2-6% of all non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) cases, with a steady incidence increase over the past few decades. Although many patients achieve an adequate response to the upfront treatment, the short duration of remission with rapid relapse is challenging during MCL management. In this regard, there is no consensus on the best treatment options for relapsed/refractory (R/R) disease, and the international guidelines demonstrate wide variations in the recommended approaches. The last decade has witnessed the introduction of new agents in the treatment landscape of R/R MCL. Since the introduction of Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitors, the treatment algorithm and response of R/R MCL patients have dramatically changed. Nevertheless, BTK resistance is common, necessitating further investigations to develop novel agents with a more durable response. Novel agents targeting the B-cell receptor (BCR) signaling have exhibited clinical activity and a well-tolerable safety profile. However, as the responses to these novel agents are still modest in most clinical trials, combination strategies were investigated in pre-clinical and early clinical settings to determine whether the combination of novel agents would exhibit a better durable response than single agents. In this report, we provide an updated literature review that covers recent clinical data about the safety and efficacy of novel therapies for the management of R/R MCL.

Abstract
Background Carfilzomib and other proteasome inhibitors (PIs) have revolutionized treatment of multiple myeloma (MM). PIs have proven to be highly effective, but are associated with significant cardiovascular adverse events (AEs). No prior study has compared the cardiotoxicity of carfilzomib against other PI’s and all other classes of medications. Objectives The purpose of this study is to characterize the cardiotoxicity of carfilzomib with respect to other PIs and all classes of medications using the US Food and Drug Administration Adverse Events Reporting System (FAERS) database and to define the observed cardiotoxicity profile. Methods The FAERS database was queried between years 2017 and 2020 to identify AEs associated with PIs. Data extracted included concomitant medications used, type and severity of AEs and patient characteristics including age, sex, and time from medication initiation to adverse event. Cardiotoxicities assessed included acute myocardial infarction, heart failure, and supraventricular tachycardia. The reporting odds ratio (ROR) and information component assessed the strength of association between PIs and cardiotoxicity. Results Over the study period, 21,026 adverse events were reported in patients taking carfilzomib among 55,195 total adverse events in patients taking PI’s were identified from 6,548,048 total events reported in the FAERS database. The most common AE associated with carfilzomib was development of heart failure (1116 adverse events); disproportionality analysis revealed a stronger association with hypertension and QT prolongation with carfilzomib than other PI’s. Conclusions While they have demonstrated efficacy and revolutionized treatment of MM, carfilzomib and other PI’s are associated with cardiotoxicities.

Abstract
Carfilzomib (CFZ) constitutes powerful combinatory therapy for relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM); however, cardiovascular adverse events (CVAEs) have been shown as major treatment obstacles with the use of CFZ. Along with our multi-institutional prospective observational study by the Kyoto Clinical Hematology Study Group on the efficacy and safety of CFZ-based treatments (UMIN000025108), we here performed an ad hoc analysis of CFZ-related CVAEs in 50 patients with RRMM. We analyzed the association between CFZ-related CVAEs and pre-planned examinations, including patients' background, electrocardiographic findings, echocardiographic findings, and serum/plasma levels of 18 potential candidate biomarkers. The common CVAEs were hypertension (42%), arrhythmia (14%), and prolongation of QT corrected interval (10%), whereas no serious CVAEs occurred. The pretreatment serum level of interleukin-6 was identified as a significant risk factor for CFZ-related hypertension. This study revealed hypertension as the most frequent CFZ-related CVAE and suggested that baseline serum interleukin-6 is a useful predictor for CFZ-induced hypertension.

Abstract
Background Anticancer therapies have significantly improved patient outcomes; however, cardiac side effects from cancer therapies remain a significant challenge. Cardiotoxicity following treatment with proteasome inhibitors such as carfilzomib is known in clinical settings, but the underlying mechanisms have not been fully elucidated. Methods and Results Using human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-CMs) as a cell model for drug-induced cytotoxicity in combination with traction force microscopy, functional assessments, high-throughput imaging, and comprehensive omic analyses, we examined the molecular mechanisms involved in structural and functional alterations induced by carfilzomib in hiPSC-CMs. Following the treatment of hiPSC-CMs with carfilzomib at 0.01 to 10 µmol/L, we observed a concentration-dependent increase in carfilzomib-induced toxicity and corresponding morphological, structural, and functional changes. Carfilzomib treatment reduced mitochondrial membrane potential, ATP production, and mitochondrial oxidative respiration and increased mitochondrial oxidative stress. In addition, carfilzomib treatment affected contractility of hiPSC-CMs in 3-dimensional microtissues. At a single cell level, carfilzomib treatment impaired Ca2+ transients and reduced integrin-mediated traction forces as detected by piconewton tension sensors. Transcriptomic and proteomic analyses revealed that carfilzomib treatment downregulated the expression of genes involved in extracellular matrices, integrin complex, and cardiac contraction, and upregulated stress responsive proteins including heat shock proteins. Conclusions Carfilzomib treatment causes deleterious changes in cellular and functional characteristics of hiPSC-CMs. Insights into these changes could be gained from the changes in the expression of genes and proteins identified from our omic analyses.

Abstract
The proteasome is crucial for the degradation of intracellular proteins and plays an important role in mediating a number of cell survival and progression events by controlling the levels of key regulatory proteins such as cyclins and caspases in both normal and tumor cells. However, compared to normal cells, cancer cells are more dependent on the ubiquitin proteasome pathway (UPP) due to the accumulation of proteins in response to uncontrolled gene transcription, allowing proteasome to become a potent therapeutic target for human cancers such as multiple myeloma (MM). Up to date, three proteasome inhibitors namely bortezomib (2003), carfilzomib (2012) and ixazomib (2015) have been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of patients with relapsed and/or refractory MM. This review mainly focuses on the biochemical properties, mechanism of action, toxicity profile and pivotal clinical trials related to carfilzomib, a second-generation proteasome inhibitor that binds irreversibly with proteasome to overcome the major toxicities and resistance associated with bortezomib.

Cardiovascular Toxicity of Carfilzomib: The Real-World Evidence Based on the Adverse Event Reporting System Database of the FDA, the United States. Front Cardiovasc Med 2021; 8:735466. [PMID: 34646873 PMCID: PMC8503541 DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2021.735466] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/02/2021] [Accepted: 08/31/2021] [Indexed: 02/02/2023] Open
Abstract
Background: Carfilzomib, an effective proteasome inhibitor agent for the therapy of relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma, has been related to a significant number of cardiovascular events. However, patterns of cardiovascular complications associated with this agent remain poorly characterized in real-world settings. Objective: To gain further insight into the frequency, spectrum, clinical features, timing, and outcomes of carfilzomib-related cardiovascular toxicities. Methods: This disproportionality (case/non-case) study was conducted leveraging records from FAERS database from 2014 to 2019. Cardiovascular events were defined and broadly categorized eight entities using narrow version of the Standardized MedDRA Queries (SMQs). Reporting odds ratios (ROR) and information component (IC) were calculated to measure disproportionality. Additionally, statistical shrinkage was applied to reduce false-positive signals. Results: The final number of records involved was 28,479,963, with 3,370 records submitted for carfilzomib related cardiovascular events. Significant disproportionality association between carfilzomib administration and cardiovascular events was captured (IC025/ROR025 = 0.85/1.95) when exploring in the entire database. Upon further analysis, all eight broad categories of cardiovascular toxicities were disproportionately associated with carfilzomib with varying frequencies, time-to-onset, and severities. Cardiomyopathy-related complications (N = 1,301, 38.61%), embolic and thrombotic events (N = 821, 24.36%), and cardiac failure (N = 765, 22.70%) largely comprised the reported problems. Notably, the strongest signal was detected for cardiac failure (IC025/ROR025 = 1.33/2.59), followed by pulmonary hypertension (IC025/ROR025 = 1.19/2.34). Median onset time of cardiovascular events was 41days (Q1-Q3: 9-114 days), with the shortest median time being 16 days (Q1-Q3: 4-85 days) for ischemic heart disease, with the longest time being 68 days (Q1-Q3: 21-139 days) for embolic and thrombotic events. Torsade de pointes/QT prolongation was identified as a new complication (IC025/ROR025 = 0.33/1.29) and was particularly noteworthy for highest death proportion (44.11%). Conclusions: Treatment with carfilzomib can lead to severe and versatile cardiovascular events. Early and intensive monitoring is important, particularly in the first 3 months after carfilzomib initiation. Maximizing the benefit while reducing potential cardiovascular harms of carfilzomib should become a priority.

Abstract
Advances in chemotherapy and supportive therapy have resulted in improved clinical outcomes in patients with hematological malignancies undergoing hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation (HSCT). However, the association between HSCT and early- and late-onset cardiotoxicity remains controversial as these cardiac complications, including acute heart failure and arrhythmia, such as atrial fibrillation, can occasionally be lethal. Although the overall pathophysiology has not been elucidated, initial/salvage chemotherapy before HSCT, such as anthracycline-combined regimens, conditioning regimens, thoracic radiotherapy, and pre-existing personal risk factors, could be associated with an increased risk of cardiac events. Routine monitoring of cardiac function using global longitudinal strain or left ventricular ejection fraction in echocardiogram and serum biomarkers could be an option to detect early changes in cardiac status before irreversible cardiac complications develop. While beta-blockers and angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors are commonly used for cardioprotection, their clinical benefit has not been fully established in HSCT-associated cardiotoxicity. In the future, genetic analysis to reveal individual vulnerability to cardiotoxicity and prospective trials assessing the clinical benefit of early interventions, including novel agents such as angiotensin receptor-neprilysin inhibitor, are warranted. Collaboration between oncologists and cardiologists is crucial to establishing a strategy to prevent cardiac complications.

Abstract
Background Combinatory strategies with carfilzomib (CFZ), a second‐generation proteasome inhibitor, plus dexamethasone (DEX) with or without lenalidomide (LEN) have shown promising efficacy for patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) in pivotal clinical trials. However, their effects on patients who were resistance to bortezomib (BTZ) and/or LEN have not been fully evaluated in a daily practice setting. Aims To evaluate the real‐world efficacy and safety of CFZ‐based treatments; that is, CFZ with LEN plus DEX (KRD therapy) and CFZ with DEX (KD therapy), in Asian patients, we conducted a multicenter pilot prospective observational study in the Kyoto Clinical Hematology Study Group. Methods and Results All 50 patients with RRMM enrolled in this study were treated with CFZ‐based treatments between 2017 and 2019. KRD and KD were administered to 31 and 19 patients, respectively. The overall response rates (ORRs) were 80.6% with KRD and 73.7% with KD. Two‐year progression‐free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were 58.5% and 79.7% with KRD, and 23.1% and 52.6% with KD. By multivariate analysis, refractoriness to BTZ and to LEN were identified as independent unfavorable factors for both PFS and OS. The common non‐hematologic AEs included hypertension (42.0%), fever (24.0%), fatigue (24.0%), and infection (16.0%). No serious heart failure was observed. This study is registered as UMIN000025108. Conclusion This study suggests the need of the development of novel CFZ‐containing strategy which can overcome the refractoriness to BTZ and/or LEN, while both KRD and KD were shown to be mostly feasible in Asian patients in a daily practice setting.

Abstract
Multiple myeloma is a pathology of plasma cells, with one of the most common side effects of its treatment is heart failure. In addition, cardiac amyloidosis could cause heart failure by itself. Even though mechanisms of cardiac amyloidosis are known, and they involve lysosomal dysfunction, reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation, and infiltrative effect by fibrils, there is no specific agent that could protect from these effects. While the molecular mechanism of doxorubicin cardiotoxicity via topoisomerase II β is established, the only FDA-approved agent for treatment is dexrazoxane. Liposomal doxorubicin can potentially improve response and decrease the development of heart failure due to microscopic liposomes that can accumulate and penetrate only tumor vasculature. Supplements that enhance mitochondrial biogenesis are also shown to improve doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity. Other agents, such as JR-311, ICRF-193, and ursolic acid, could potentially become new treatment options. Proteasome inhibitors, novel agents, have significantly improved survival rates among multiple myeloma patients. They act on a proteasome system that is highly active in cardiomyocytes and activates various molecular cascades in malignant cells, as well as in the heart, through nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kB), endoplasmic reticulum (ER), calcineurin-nuclear factor of activated T-cells (NFAT), and adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPKa)/autophagy pathways. Metformin, apremilast, and rutin have shown positive results in animal studies and may become a promising therapy as cardioprotective agents. This article aims to highlight the main molecular mechanisms of heart failure among patients with multiple myeloma and potential treatment options to facilitate the development and research of new preventive strategies. Hence, this will have a positive impact on life expectancy in patients with multiple myeloma.

Abstract
Oncology has seen growing use of newly developed targeted therapies. Although this has resulted in dramatic improvements in progression-free and overall survival, challenges in the management of toxicities related to longer-term treatment of these therapies have also become evident. Although a targeted approach often exploits the differences between cancer cells and noncancer cells, overlap in signaling pathways necessary for the maintenance of function and survival in multiple cell types has resulted in systemic toxicities. In particular, cardiovascular toxicities are of important concern. In this review, we highlight several targeted therapies commonly used across a variety of cancer types, including HER2 (human epidermal growth factor receptor 2)+ targeted therapies, tyrosine kinase inhibitors, immune checkpoint inhibitors, proteasome inhibitors, androgen deprivation therapies, and MEK (mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase)/BRAF (v-raf murine sarcoma viral oncogene homolog B) inhibitors. We present the oncological indications, heart failure incidence, hypothesized mechanisms of cardiotoxicity, and potential mechanistic rationale for specific cardioprotective strategies.

Abstract
Carfilzomib, a next-generation proteasome inhibitor, improves outcomes in patients with multiple myeloma (MM); however, a proportion of those treated develop renal failure due to adverse event, comorbidity, or myeloma progression. The rate of renal failure and associated risk factors remains unknown in real-world populations. Adults with relapsed/refractory MM who received carfilzomib between the years 2013 and 2016 were identified in the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER)-Medicare linked databases. Renal failure was defined using the corresponding International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision (ICD-9) and Tenth Revision (ICD-10) diagnostic codes and procedure codes for dialysis. Patients with a pre-existing diagnosis of renal failure were excluded to distinguish an adverse event from comorbidity. Multivariate cox regression analysis was performed to identify the variables independently associated with the development of renal failure among MM patients utilizing carfilzomib. A total of 1950 patients were included in the analysis. Renal failure developed in 22% of patients during the study period. The median time to development of renal failure from first carfilzomib administration was 1.6 months (range < 0.1-23.3). Increasing age (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR] 1.01 per year, p = 0.018), pre-existing heart failure (aHR 1.50, p = 0.005), and pre-existing chronic kidney disease (aHR 2.00, p < 0.001) were associated with a higher risk of developing renal failure. Renal failure occurred in up to 22% of patients on carfilzomib therapy. The exact cause and mechanism of renal failure cannot be determined from our study and may be multifactorial. Future studies are needed to further understand the cause of renal failure among patients on carfilzomib and devise strategies to mitigate the risk.

Abstract
Carfilzomib, a second-generation proteasome inhibitor, has significantly improved the survival rate of multiple myeloma (MM) patients, but its clinical application is still restricted by drug resistance and cardiotoxicity. Here, we identified a novel proteasome inhibitor, D395, and assessed its efficacy in treating MM as well as its cardiotoxicity at the preclinical level. The activities of purified and intracellular proteasomes were measured to determine the effect of D395 on the proteasome. CCK-8 and flow cytometry experiments were designed to evaluate the effects of D395 on cell growth and apoptosis. The effects of D395 and carfilzomib on serum enzyme activity, echocardiography features, cardiomyocyte morphology, and hERG channels were also compared. In our study, D395 was highly cytotoxic to MM cell lines and primary MM cells but not normal cells, and it was well tolerated in vivo. Similar to carfilzomib, D395 inhibited osteoclast differentiation in a dose-dependent manner. In particular, D395 exhibited lower cardiotoxicity than carfilzomib in all experiments. In conclusion, D395 is a novel irreversible proteasome inhibitor that has remarkable anti-MM activity and mild cardiotoxicity in vitro and in vivo.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The ASPIRE and ENDEAVOUR trials have shown cardiovascular adverse effects in patients treated with carfilzomib-based regimens. Therefore, we conducted this meta-analysis of published clinical trials to identify the cumulative incidence and risk of cardiovascular adverse effects due to carfilzomib. METHODS A systematic search of PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Cochrane library was performed, and we identified 45 prospective trials of carfilzomib with data on 5583 patients. Among all patients being treated with carfilzomib (N=5,583), 8.9% sustained all grade cardiotoxicity, while 4.4% sustained high-grade cardiotoxicity. All-grade hypertension was present in 13.2%, while the incidence of high-grade hypertension was 5.3%. RESULT The observed incidences of all-grade heart failure, edema, and ischemia were 5.1%, 20.7%, and 4.6% respectively. Likewise, for high-grade heart failure and edema observed incidence was 3.2%, and 2.7% respectively. There was no difference in the event rate of all and high-grade cardiotoxicity between newly diagnosed multiple myeloma and relapsed/refractory (p-value 0.42 and 0.86 respectively). Likewise, we did not observe any difference in the event rate of all and high-grade cardiotoxicity when carfilzomib was used as a single agent versus when used in combination therapy with other agents (p-value 0.43 and 0.73 respectively). CONCLUSION Carfilzomib is associated with a significant risk of cardiovascular toxicity and hypertension. With the increasing utilization of carfilzomib, it is critical for primary care physicians, oncologists and cardiologists to be aware of the risk of cardiotoxicity associated with the use of carfilzomib to recognize and treat baseline cardiovascular risk factors in such patients.

Abstract
Cardiovascular complications have been frequently reported in cancer patients and survivors, mainly because of various cardiotoxic cancer treatments. Despite the known cardiovascular toxic effects of these treatments, they are still clinically used because of their effectiveness as anti-cancer agents. In this review, we discuss the growing body of evidence suggesting that inhibition of the cytochrome P450 1B1 enzyme (CYP1B1) can be a promising therapeutic strategy that has the potential to prevent cancer treatment-induced cardiovascular complications without reducing their anti-cancer effects. CYP1B1 is an extrahepatic enzyme that is expressed in cardiovascular tissues and overexpressed in different types of cancers. A growing body of evidence is demonstrating a detrimental role of CYP1B1 in both cardiovascular diseases and cancer, via perturbed metabolism of endogenous compounds, production of carcinogenic metabolites, DNA adduct formation, and generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Several chemotherapeutic agents have been shown to induce CYP1B1 in cardiovascular and cancer cells, possibly via activating the Aryl hydrocarbon Receptor (AhR), ROS generation, and inflammatory cytokines. Induction of CYP1B1 is detrimental in many ways. First, it can induce or exacerbate cancer treatment-induced cardiovascular complications. Second, it may lead to significant chemo/radio-resistance, undermining both the safety and effectiveness of cancer treatments. Therefore, numerous preclinical studies demonstrate that inhibition of CYP1B1 protects against chemotherapy-induced cardiotoxicity and prevents chemo- and radio-resistance. Most of these studies have utilized phytochemicals to inhibit CYP1B1. Since phytochemicals have multiple targets, future studies are needed to discern the specific contribution of CYP1B1 to the cardioprotective and chemo/radio-sensitizing effects of these phytochemicals.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION In AL amyloidosis, a usually small plasma cell clone secretes unstable, amyloid-forming light chains, causing cytotoxicity and progressive (multi)organ function deterioration. Treatment aims at reducing/eradicating the underlying clone, to reduce/zero the supply of the amyloidogenic protein and halt the amyloidogenic cascade. AREAS COVERED Safety data of alkylating agents, proteasome inhibitors, immunomodulatory drugs, and monoclonal antibodies from clinical trials are reviewed. EXPERT OPINION Drugs used to treat AL amyloidosis are derived from experience with multiple myeloma or other B cell malignancies. However, treating AL amyloidosis is particularly challenging, as it implies delivering anti-neoplastic therapy to a hematologic malignancy directly causing (multi)organ function deterioration, often in elderly subjects with other comorbidities and polypharmacotherapy. This unique combination translates in increased patients' frailty and higher sensitivity toward treatment-related toxicities. Therefore, dose/schedule adjustments and special precautions are needed when translating treatment experience from multiple myeloma or other B cell malignancies to AL amyloidosis. Treatment of patients with AL amyloidosis should be risk adapted, tailored to individual patients' risk profile, considering the type and extent of organ involvement, and eventual comorbidity. As several classes of effective anti-plasma cell or B cell drugs are available, therapeutic choices are also influenced by individual drug's safety profile.

Impact of carfilzomib-based desensitization on heart transplantation of sensitized candidates. J Heart Lung Transplant 2021; 40:595-603. [PMID: 33785250 DOI: 10.1016/j.healun.2021.03.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/10/2020] [Revised: 02/14/2021] [Accepted: 03/02/2021] [Indexed: 12/28/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Allosensitization in heart transplant candidates is associated with longer transplant wait times and post-transplant complications. We summarize our experience with desensitization using carfilzomib, an irreversible proteasome inhibitor that causes plasma cell apoptosis. METHODS One cycle of desensitization consisted of plasmapheresis and carfilzomib 20 mg/m2 on days 1, 2, 8, 9, 15, and 16 with intravenous immune globulin 2 g/kg after carfilzomib on day 16. Patients underwent repeat cycles as indicated. We compare calculated panel-reactive antibody (cPRA) for neat combined Class I and II IgG and C1q pre- and post-treatment using a cutoff for cPRA entry of ≥ 4000 and 500 MFI, respectively. RESULTS From June 2013 to October 2019, 9 patients underwent 20 cycles of carfilzomib-based desensitization. Each cycle resulted in an average cPRA decrease of 24% (95% CI: 6-42) for IgG and 36% (95% CI: 17-55) for C1q. From treatment start to finish, mean cPRA fell from 76% to 40% (p = 0.01) for IgG and 56% to 4% (p = 0.017) for C1q. Six of 9 patients have been transplanted with 5 of the transplanted hearts crossing preoperative donor-specific antibodies. During a median follow-up of 35.1 months, all transplanted patients have survived with only 1 occurrence of treated rejection. Side effects of desensitization included acute kidney injury (67%) and thrombocytopenia (33%) with all episodes self-resolving. CONCLUSIONS A carfilzomib-based desensitization strategy among heart transplant candidates reduces the level of HLA antibodies and complement binding, facilitates successful transplantation, and is associated with excellent outcomes at 3 years.

Abstract
Carfilzomib (CFZ) improves survival in relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma but is associated with cardiovascular adverse events (CVAEs). We prospectively investigated the effect of CFZ on endothelial function and associations with CVAEs. Forty-eight patients treated with Kd (CFZ 20/56 mg/m2 and dexamethasone) underwent serial endothelial function evaluation, using brachial artery flow-mediated dilatation (FMD) and 26S proteasome activity (PrA) measurement in PBMCs; patients were followed until disease progression or cycle 6 for a median of 10 months. FMD and PrA decreased acutely after the first dose (p < 0.01) and FMD decreased at cycles 3 and 6 compared to baseline (p ≤ 0.05). FMD changes were associated with CFZ-induced PrA changes (p < 0.05) and lower PrA recovery during first cycle was associated with more prominent FMD decrease (p = 0.034 for group interaction). During treatment, 25 patients developed Grade ≥3 CVAEs. Low baseline FMD (HR 2.57 lowest vs. higher tertiles, 95% CI 1.081-6.1) was an independent predictor of CVAEs. During treatment, an acute FMD decrease >40% at the end of first cycle was also independently associated with CVAEs (HR = 3.91, 95% CI 1.29-11.83). Kd treatment impairs endothelial function which is associated with PrA inhibition and recovery. Both pre- and posttreatment FMD predicted CFZ-related CVAEs supporting its role as a possible cardiovascular toxicity biomarker.

Abstract
Carfilzomib was approved for the treatment of multiple myeloma in 2012 and since then there have been concerns for cardiovascular toxicity from its use. With this study, we aim to further study the hazards and underlying risk factors for cardiovascular adverse events associated with carfilzomib. This study was conducted using Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER)-Medicare data set of multiple myeloma from 2001 to 2015. Data were analyzed for hazards ratio of cardiovascular adverse events between carfilzomib users and nonusers. We identified 7330 patients with multiple myeloma of whom 815 were carfilzomib users. Carfilzomib users had a statistically significant hazard ratio of 1.41 with p < 0.0001 for all cardiovascular adverse events as compared to nonusers. Carfilzomib use was significantly associated with increased risk of heart failure (HR 1.47, p = 0.0002), ischemic heart disease (HR 1.45, p = 0.0002), and hypertension (HR 3.33, p < 0.0001), whereas there was no association between carfilzomib use and cardiac conduction disorders (arrhythmia and heart blocks). Carfilzomib users were at higher risk of new-onset edema (HR 5.09, p < 0.0001), syncope (HR 4.27, p < 0.0001), dyspnea (HR 1.33, p < 0.0001), and chest pain (HR 1.18, p < 0.0001) as compared to carfilzomib nonusers. Age above 75 years, preexisting cardiovascular disease, obesity, and twice a week carfilzomib schedule were significant risk factors associated with cardiovascular adverse events in carfilzomib users. The median time of the onset for all cardiovascular adverse events was 3.1 months. This study has identified a significantly higher likelihood of cardiovascular adverse events in elderly Medicare patients receiving carfilzomib.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In Germany, several triplet therapies for treating relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma (rrMM) patients have recently been approved. While most of them are administered intravenously, ixazomib-based combination is the only orally bioavailable regimen. OBJECTIVE To conduct a 1-year and 3-year budget impact analysis (BIA) of different novel triplets to treat patients with rrMM in second or subsequent therapy lines accounting for costs covered by German statutory health insurance (SHI). METHODS A 3-state partitioned survival model (PSM) was developed to evaluate the budget impact of the following regimens: carfilzomib plus lenalidomide plus dexamethasone (KRd), elotuzumab plus lenalidomide plus dexamethasone (ERd), daratumumab plus lenalidomide plus dexamethasone (DRd), and ixazomib plus lenalidomide plus dexamethasone (IRd). The analysis included direct medical costs such as drug acquisition, comedication and preparation for parenteral solutions, drug administration and other 1-time costs, adverse event management costs and direct non-medical costs, such as transportation costs. RESULTS Based on current drug market shares in German healthcare market, the estimated costs after 1 year of treatment was €551 million (KRd), €163 million (ERd), €584 million (DRd), and €95 million (IRd). The total budget impact of €1393 million is mainly driven by drug acquisition and subsequent therapy costs. CONCLUSION Among the regimens of interest, the oral-based therapy regimens offered cost advantages over intravenous-based therapy regimens. The higher overall costs of intravenous therapy regimens were attributed primarily to higher drug acquisition costs.

Abstract
Recent advances in multiple myeloma include numerous approvals of novel therapies with unprecedented efficacy, a rapid and sustained tempo of new drug development, and further refinements to prognostication to include minimal residual disease (MRD) testing and improved risk stratification. The upfront use of immunomodulatory drug and proteasome inhibitor combinations followed by maintenance has resulted in transformative clinical benefit. Four-drug regimens incorporating monoclonal antibodies are reporting unprecedented rates of complete response and MRD negativity in the absence of intensification. In the context of these advances, the added value of high-dose melphalan with autologous stem-cell transplant (HDM-ASCT) is a key question. From a safety standpoint, HDM-ASCT is associated with both acute toxicities that reduce quality of life and long-term toxicities that may limit life expectancy for some patients. The present review discusses the recent advances in induction therapy, the impact of these advances on HDM-ASCT, the evolving role of MRD testing and the short- and long-term risks of HDM-ASCT. Recognising that prospective data remains limited, we suggest that HDM-ASCT not be considered mandatory for eligible newly diagnosed patients who are treated with highly efficacious regimens and achieve deep responses, but rather be held in reserve without early exposure to the clinical and genomic toxicity inherent to this approach.

Abstract
Patients with cancer are at increased risk of cardiovascular disease, with a reported prevalence of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) ranging from 3% to 17%. The increased risk of ACS in these patients seems to be due to the complex interaction of shared cardiovascular risk factors, cancer type and stage, and chemotherapeutic and radiotherapy regimens. The management of ACS in patients with cancer is a clinical challenge, particularly due to cancer’s unique pathophysiology, which makes it difficult to balance thrombotic and bleeding risks in this specific patient population. In addition, patients with cancer have largely been excluded from ACS trials. Hence, an evidence-based treatment for ACS in this group of patients is unknown and only a limited proportion of them is treated with antiplatelets or invasive revascularization, despite initial reports suggesting their beneficial prognostic effects in cancer patients. Finally, cancer patients experiencing ACS are also at higher risk of in-hospital and long-term mortality as compared to non-cancer patients. In this review, we will provide an overview on the available evidence of the relationship between ACS and cancer, in terms of clinical manifestations, possible underlying mechanisms, and therapeutic and prognostic implications.

Abstract
Proteasome inhibitors such as carfilzomib are indicated in multiple myeloma patients showing relapse and/or refractoriness of clonal activity. However, this therapy has been associated with a significant incidence of cardiotoxicity, especially in patients with known cardiovascular risk factors. Here we report a case of a 60-year-old woman with multiple myeloma, who developed severe congestive heart failure with positive myocardial injury biomarkers together with impaired LVEF and GLS, after treatment with carfilzomib. Therefore, chemotherapeutic drug was discontinued and neurohormonal blocking and diuretic therapy was started resulting in amelioration of symptoms, without changes in LVEF but with significant GLS improvement. Although high-grade cardiotoxicity is relatively rare in patients with non previous cardiac risk factors, it was a predictable side effect of carfilzomib use. Recognition of this syndrome is critical to instauration of appropriate therapy and prevention of morbimortality.

Abstract
Background: Carfilzomib’s (Cfz) adverse events in myeloma patients include cardiovascular toxicity. Since carfilzomib’s vascular effects are elusive, we investigated the vascular outcomes of carfilzomib and metformin (Met) coadministration. Methods: Mice received: (i) saline; (ii) Cfz; (iii) Met; (iv) Cfz+Met for two consecutive (acute) or six alternate days (subacute protocol). Leucocyte-derived reactive oxygen species (ROS) and serum NOx levels were determined and aortas underwent vascular and molecular analyses. Mechanistic experiments were recapitulated in aged mice who received similar treatment to young animals. Primary murine (prmVSMCs) and aged human aortic smooth muscle cells (HAoSMCs) underwent Cfz, Met and Cfz+Met treatment and viability, metabolic flux and p53-LC3-B expression were measured. Experiments were recapitulated in AngII, CoCl2 and high-glucose stimulated HAoSMCs. Results: Acutely, carfilzomib alone led to vascular hypo-contraction and increased ROS release. Subacutely, carfilzomib increased ROS release without vascular manifestations. Cfz+Met increased PGF2α-vasoconstriction and LC3-B-dependent autophagy in both young and aged mice. In vitro, Cfz+Met led to cytotoxicity and autophagy, while Met and Cfz+Met shifted cellular metabolism. Conclusion: Carfilzomib induces a transient vascular impairment and oxidative burst. Cfz+Met increased vascular contractility and synergistically induced autophagy in all settings. Therefore, carfilzomib cannot be accredited for a permanent vascular dysfunction, while Cfz+Met exert vasoprotective potency.

Abstract
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, B cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma with highly heterogeneous clinical presentation and aggressiveness. First-line treatment consists of intensive chemotherapy with autologous stem cell transplant for the fit, transplant eligible patients, or less intensive chemotherapy for the less fit (and transplant-ineligible) patients. Patients eventually relapse with a progressive clinical course. Numerous therapeutic approaches have emerged over the last few years which have significantly changed the treatment landscape of MCL. These therapies consist of targeted approaches such as BTK and BCL2 inhibitors that provide durable therapeutic responses. However, the optimum combination and sequencing of these therapies is unclear and is currently investigated in several ongoing studies. Furthermore, cellular therapies such as chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells and bispecific T cell engager (BiTe) antibodies have shown impressive results and will likely shape treatment approaches in relapsed MCL, especially after failure with BTK inhibitors. Herein, we provide a comprehensive review of past and ongoing studies that will likely significantly impact our approach to MCL treatment in both the frontline (for transplant eligible and ineligible patients) as well as in the relapsed setting. We present the most up to date results from these studies as well as perspectives on future studies in MCL.

Abstract
Patients with cancer are at a higher risk of cardiovascular disease, which contributes to significant morbidity and mortality. The rapid progress in the field of oncological treatments has led to a steady increase in long-term cancer survivors. Care for cardiovascular complications is therefore becoming increasingly important. In addition, the establishment of new oncological therapies has resulted in the identification of previously unknown cardiovascular side effects. Oncocardiology aims to detect and treat cardiovascular diseases associated with cancer and cancer therapy. Continuous scientific, clinical, and structural developments are necessary as the basis for the best care of the growing number of affected patients. This review summarizes current developments in the field of oncocardiology with regard to advances in cancer therapy and challenges in clinical oncocardiology work. Cardiovascular side effects by targeted cancer therapies are characterized and recent advances in the field of cardiovascular diagnostics are outlined. Developments to better integrate oncocardiology into the medical care system and perspectives for modern, patient-oriented care are shown. In light of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, current challenges and opportunities are highlighted. The relevance of profitable further advances in oncocardiology including standardized guidelines and educational programs is delineated as a mandatory requirement for the successful development of oncocardiology.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Carfilzomib improves survival in patients with recurrent myeloma. Given the strict eligibility criteria in clinical trials, the actual frequency of cardiac adverse events (CAEs) and pulmonary adverse events (PAEs) and the risk factors associated with these AEs in the general population need to be established. METHODS The authors extracted myeloma cases in the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER)-Medicare linked database from 2000 through 2013 and corresponding claims through 2014. They then identified patients who received carfilzomib during their disease course. Subsequently, the International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision (ICD-9) was used to identify all the codes for CAEs, PAEs, and respiratory infections associated with carfilzomib use. Preexisting diagnoses corresponding to the CAEs and PAEs of interest were excluded to distinguish toxicity from comorbidity. Multivariate Cox regression was performed to determine those variables independently associated with the development of CAEs and PAEs. RESULTS Of the 635 patients analyzed, the median age was 72 years (range, 36-94 years); 55% of the patients were male and 79% were white. The median duration of carfilzomib treatment was 58 days (range, 1-716 days). Overall, approximately 66% of the patients had codes for either CAEs or PAEs. In terms of CAEs, approximately 22% of patients developed hypertension, 15% developed peripheral edema, and 14% experienced heart failure. With regard to PAEs, approximately 28% of patients developed dyspnea, 15% developed cough, and 15% developed pneumonia. Only chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) was found to be independently associated with the development of CAEs. Patients with preexisting COPD were found to have a 40% increase in their hazard of developing CAEs (adjusted hazard ratio, 1.40; 95% CI, 1.03-1.90). CONCLUSIONS In older adults with myeloma who are undergoing treatment with carfilzomib, new cardiac and pulmonary diagnoses were common. Patients with preexisting COPD were found to be at an increased risk of developing CAEs.

Abstract
Cancer patients and survivors of cancer have a greater burden of cardiovascular disease compared to the general population. Much of the elevated cardiovascular risk in these individuals is likely attributable to hypertension, as individuals with cancer have a particularly high incidence of hypertension following cancer diagnosis. Treatment with chemotherapy is an independent risk factor for hypertension due to direct effects of many agents on endothelial function, sympathetic activity, and renin-angiotensin system activity as well as nephrotoxicity. Diagnosis and management of hypertension in cancer patients requires accurate blood pressure measurement and consideration of potential confounding factors, such as adjuvant treatments and acute pain, that can temporarily elevate blood pressure readings. Home blood pressure monitoring can be a useful tool to facilitate longitudinal blood pressure monitoring for titration of antihypertensive medications. Selection of antihypertensive agents in cancer patients should account for treatment-specific morbidities and target organ injury.

Abstract
The emergence of various targeted anticancer agents has led us to uncharted territory secondary to their cardiotoxic potential with many burning questions, which in turn has led to the evolution of the cardio-oncology field. These targeted agents differ in their cardiovascular complication (CVC) potential even within the same class and it is very difficult to design screening tests that can predict CVCs. Moreover, there is a need for more research to answer many crucial questions, since these toxicities are unanticipated and can lead to poor overall survival of cancer patients. We still do not clearly understand the mechanism for such toxicity, risk factors, and natural history. A better understanding of the underlying risk factors and identification of biomarkers would help us develop protocols for appropriate monitoring strategies which in turn would help capture these toxicities at early stages. In this succinct review, we try to focus on CVC definition, summarize some published research, and point to areas of unmet need in this new field.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Multiple myeloma is a common hematologic malignancy characterized by recurrent relapsing disease course requiring use of various therapies. Over the past few decades, significant advancements in the treatment of myeloma have occurred including routine use of proteasome inhibitors and immunomodulatory drugs. These have effectively improved survival; however, some also have increased risk of cardiovascular toxicity. Here, we will review the incidence, pathophysiology, and management of cardiovascular complications associated with antimyeloma agents. RECENT FINDINGS Cardiovascular complications associated with myeloma treatment are common. These cardiovascular complications include accelerated hypertension, ischemic heart disease, congestive heart failure, arrhythmia, pulmonary hypertension, venous thromboembolism, and arterial thromboembolism. Thromboprophylactic strategies during treatment with immunomodulatory agents and screening strategies to detect changes in myocardial function prior to the development of overt heart failure have occurred. Cardiovascular complications associated with proteasome inhibitors and immunomodulatory drugs are an important component in supportive care of patients with myeloma. The incidence of cardiotoxicity is high, and, as such, early intervention and collaborative efforts between cardiologists and oncologists to mitigate and effectively manage these complications are imperative. Additional studies are needed to clarify the underlying pathophysiology and evaluate effective strategies for prevention and treatment.
