Functional Validation of Doxorubicin-Induced Cardiotoxicity-Related Genes. JACC CardioOncol 2024; 6:38-50. [PMID: 38510289 PMCID: PMC10950437 DOI: 10.1016/j.jaccao.2023.11.008] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/11/2023] [Revised: 11/16/2023] [Accepted: 11/21/2023] [Indexed: 03/22/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Genome-wide association studies and candidate gene association studies have identified more than 180 genetic variants statistically associated with anthracycline-induced cardiotoxicity (AIC). However, the lack of functional validation has hindered the clinical translation of these findings. Objectives The aim of this study was to functionally validate all genes associated with AIC using human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-CMs). Methods Through a systemic literature search, 80 genes containing variants significantly associated with AIC were identified. Additionally, 3 more genes with potential roles in AIC (GSTM1, CBR1, and ERBB2) were included. Of these, 38 genes exhibited expression in human fetal heart, adult heart, and hiPSC-CMs. Using clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats/Cas9-based genome editing, each of these 38 genes was systematically knocked out in control hiPSC-CMs, and the resulting doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity (DIC) phenotype was assessed using hiPSC-CMs. Subsequently, functional assays were conducted for each gene knockout on the basis of hypothesized mechanistic implications in DIC. Results Knockout of 26 genes increased the susceptibility of hiPSC-CMs to DIC. Notable genes included efflux transporters (ABCC10, ABCC2, ABCB4, ABCC5, and ABCC9), well-established DIC-associated genes (CBR1, CBR3, and RAC2), and genome-wide association study-discovered genes (RARG and CELF4). Conversely, knockout of ATP2B1, HNMT, POR, CYBA, WDR4, and COL1A2 had no significant effect on the in vitro DIC phenotype of hiPSC-CMs. Furthermore, knockout of the uptake transporters (SLC28A3, SLC22A17, and SLC28A1) demonstrated a protective effect against DIC. Conclusions The present findings establish a comprehensive platform for the functional validation of DIC-associated genes, providing insights for future studies in DIC variant associations and potential mechanistic targets for the development of cardioprotective drugs.

Abstract
Anthracycline-induced cardiotoxicity (AIC) is a serious and common side effect of anthracycline therapy. Identification of genes and genetic variants associated with AIC risk has clinical potential as a cardiotoxicity predictive tool and to allow the development of personalized therapies. In this review, we provide an overview of the function of known AIC genes identified by association studies and categorize them based on their mechanistic implication in AIC. We also discuss the importance of functional validation of AIC-associated variants in human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-CMs) to advance the implementation of genetic predictive biomarkers. Finally, we review how patient-specific hiPSC-CMs can be used to identify novel patient-relevant functional targets and for the discovery of cardioprotectant drugs to prevent AIC. Implementation of functional validation and use of hiPSC-CMs for drug discovery will identify the next generation of highly effective and personalized cardioprotectants and accelerate the inclusion of approved AIC biomarkers into clinical practice.

Abstract
PURPOSE Black women often experience poorer breast cancer-related outcomes and higher mortality than white women. A contributor to this disparity may relate to the disproportionate burden of cancer treatment-related cardiovascular (CV) toxicities. The objective of this review is to identify studies that report racial differences in CV toxicity risk. METHODS Medline and Embase were searched for studies that assessed CV toxicities as the outcome(s) and included Black and White women with breast cancer. Studies were selected based on inclusion/exclusion criteria and through the use of multiple reviewers. RESULTS The review included 13 studies following a review of 409 citations and 49 full-text articles. All studies were retrospective and 8/13 utilized data from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results-Medicare linked database. Trastuzumab was the most frequently studied treatment. The proportion of Black women in these studies ranged from 5.5 to 63%. A majority of studies reported a higher risk of CV toxicity amongst Black women when compared to white women (93%). Black women had up to a two times higher risk of CV toxicity (HR, 2.73 (CI, 1.24 to 6.01)) compared to white women. Only one study evaluated the role of socioeconomic factors in explaining racial differences in CV toxicity; however, the disparity remained even after adjusting for these factors. CONCLUSIONS There is a critical need for more longitudinal studies that evaluate multilevel factors (e.g., psychosocial, biological) that may help to explain this disparity. IMPLICATIONS FOR CANCER SURVIVORS Black cancer survivors may require additional surveillance and mitigation strategies to decrease disproportionate burden of CV toxicities.

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
AIMS Doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity (DIC) is a significant cause of mortality in cancer care. This study was conducted to establish the frequency of DIC in Zimbabwean breast cancer patients on doxorubicin and to test the DIC predictive power of genetic biomarkers. METHODS A cohort of 50 Zimbabwean breast cancer patients treated with doxorubicin were followed up for 12 months with serial echocardiography and genotyped for UGTA1A6*4, SLC28A3 and RARG. Eleven per cent of the patients experienced DIC. RESULTS The frequencies of SLC28A3 (rs7853758), UGT1A6*4 (rs17863783) and RARG (rs2229774) were 60.7%, 17.9% and 14.3%, respectively. No association between DIC and the three variants was observed. CONCLUSIONS This is the first study on the prevalence of DIC and associated genetic biomarker predictive evaluation in Zimbabwean breast cancer patients. The genetic frequencies observed in our study were different to those reported in other populations. A larger sample size with a longer follow-up time will be necessary in future studies.

Abstract
The development of human-induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiac cell types has created a new paradigm in assessing drug-induced cardiotoxicity. Advances in genomics and epigenomics have also implicated several genomic loci and biological pathways that may contribute to susceptibility to cancer therapies. In this review, we first provide a brief overview of the cardiotoxicity associated with chemotherapy. We then provide a detailed summary of systems biology approaches being applied to elucidate potential molecular mechanisms involved in cardiotoxicity. Finally, we discuss combining systems biology approaches with iPSC technology to help discover molecular mechanisms associated with cardiotoxicity.

Abstract
Background Anthracyclines play an important role in the treatment of breast cancer (BC) and other malignant tumors. However, accompanied side-effects are non-ignorable. The purpose of this meta-analysis is to determine the risk factors for anthracycline-induced cardiotoxicity (ACT), so as to identify high-risk patients. Methods The search for literature was conducted in PubMed, The Cochrane Library, Embase and Web of science. Records were selected with inclusion criteria and exclusion criteria. The newcastle-ottawa scale (NOS) was used to assess the quality of literature, and Review Manager 5.3 software was used for meta-analysis. Results Thirteen studies met the inclusion criteria. Meta-analysis indicated that risk factors for ACT were use of trastuzumab (odds ratio [OR]: 2.84, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 2.49-3.22, p < 0.00001), cumulative dose of anthracyclines (OR: 1.45, 95%CI: 1.28-1.65, p < 0.00001), hypertension (OR: 2.95, 95%CI: 1.75-4.97, p < 0.0001), diabetes mellitus (DM) (OR: 1.39, 95%CI: 1.20-1.61, p < 0.0001), tumor metastasis (OR: 1.91, 95%CI: 1.17-3.11, p = 0.009) and coronary heart disease (CAD) (OR: 2.17, 95%CI: 1.50-3.15, p < 0.0001). In addition, our analysis revealed that body mass index (BMI) had no effect on ACT (OR: 1.18, 95%CI: 0.98-1.43, p = 0.08). Conclusions Patients with high risk for ACT can be identified by these factors. For such patients, a higher level of monitoring and protection for the cardiac function should be performed by clinicians. Systematic Review Registration INPLASY, identifier INPLASY202250140.

Abstract
Simple Summary In Asian breast cancer patients, whether the risks of major adverse cardio- and cerebrovascular events (MACCEs) are different between users of aromatase inhibitors (AIs) and selective estrogen receptor modulators (SERMs) remains uncertain. In this nationwide cohort study, the risks of MACCEs were significantly higher in users of SERMs compared with users of AIs in those who were at an old age (above 50 years old) or with advanced cancer stage (stage 3–4). Although the choice of hormone therapies is primarily based on the effectiveness regarding cancer survival, AI treatment should be considered for patients for whom the benefits outweigh the risks. Abstract Background: Despite a preferred endocrine therapy for women with estrogen and progesterone receptor-positive breast cancer, aromatase inhibitors (AIs) have been reported to increase risks of cardiovascular events. Given that breast cancer patients in Asia are younger at diagnosis, it is urgent to investigate this safety concern. Methods: Through the Taiwanese National Cohort, we identified breast cancer patients initiating selective estrogen receptor modulators (SERMs) or AIs from 2010 to 2016. Outcomes includes major adverse cardio- and cerebrovascular events (MACCEs). The average follow-up duration was five years. Results: We identified 16,730 breast cancer patients treated with SERMs and 11,728 receiving AIs. The population was older and had more comorbidities in the AI group than in the SERM group. After adjusting for age, cancer stage, cancer therapies, cardiovascular drugs and comorbidities, despite similar risks of MACCEs between AI and SERM users, the risk of HF was significantly higher in patients treated with SERMs after adjusted mortality as a competing risk. When divided by the age of 50 years, despite a similar MACCEs in the younger population, MACCEs remained significantly higher in the older population who received SERMs. Conclusions: In this Asian cohort, we found that among patients of old age or with advanced cancer stage, the use of SERMs was associated with a higher risk of cardiovascular events than the use of AIs.

Abstract
The objective of our study is to investigate mortality pattern and quantitatively assess prognostic risk for cause-specific death among T1-2N0M0 breast cancer survivors.The representative data of T1-2N0M0 breast cancer patients diagnosed between 2010 and 2016 was retrieved from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results program. Standardized mortality ratios (SMRs) were calculated taking US population as a reference. Cox regression analysis was conducted to analyze the potential prognostic factors for cause-specific mortality.A total of 161,966 patients were identified from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database. After a median follow-up of 41 months, mortality occurred in 10,567 patients, of which 30.9% and 22.7% were attributed to breast cancer and cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). The standardized mortality ratios of CVD were 4.78, 4.27, 3.78, and 4.95 in patients with HR+/HER2+, HR-/HER2+, HR+/HER2-, and HR-/HER2- breast cancer compared to general US population, respectively. Cox proportional hazards regression analysis showed that the adjusted HRs of breast cancer-specific mortality were 0.999 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.879-1.135), 1.454 (95% CI: 1.246-1.697), 2.145 (95% CI: 1.962-2.345) for HR+/HER2+, HR-/HER2+, and HR-/HER2- breast cancer, respectively, as compared with HR+/HER2- subtype; HRs of CVD-specific death were 1.215 (95% CI: 1.041-1.418), 1.391 (95% CI: 1.209-1.601), and 1.515 (95% CI: 1.213-1.892), respectively. In addition, we found that older age at diagnosis, and black race were also independent predictors of CVD-specific death.In the present study, we revealed the mortality pattern of cause-specific mortality, and identified prognostic factors of overall mortality, breast cancer-specific mortality, and CVD-specific mortality in T1-2N0M0 breast cancer survivors, supporting early detection and more efficient CVD care for these patients.

Abstract
The purpose of this review was to systematize data on molecular genetic markers of increased risk of cardiotoxic effects, as well as to search for risk and protective variants of candidate genes. Today, the therapy of malignant neoplasms is based on the use of anthracyclines – drugs of the cytostatic mechanism of action. Along with their effectiveness, these drugs can have a cardiotoxic effect on cardiomyocytes by increasing the amount of reactive oxygen species and disrupting mitochondrial biogenesis. Pathological disorders lead to an increased risk of myocardial dysfunction and a number of other cardiovascular pathologies in patients receiving chemotherapy using anthracyclines. The cardiotoxic effect of anthracyclines leads to cardiomyopathy, heart failure, myocardial infarction, and thrombosis. Early detection of cardiotoxic damage leads to reducing the negative effects of these drugs due to changes in chemotherapy tactics. It is known that the risk of cardiotoxic myocardial damage is genetically determined and controlled by more than 80 genes. In this review, the description of basic molecules such as ATP-binding cassette transporters and solute carrier family (SLC transporters), carbonyl reductase, molecules of antioxidant defense, xenobiotic and iron metabolism was performed. In addition, a special attention is paid to the study of epigenetic and post-translational regulation. The available data are characterized by some inconsistency that may be explained by the ethnic differences of the studied populations. Thus, a more detailed research of various ethnic groups, gene-gene interactions between potential candidate genes and epigenetic regulation is necessary. Thus, understanding the contribution of genetic polymorphism to the development of cardiotoxicity will help to assess the individual risks of cardiovascular pathology in patients with various types of cancer, as well as reduce the risk of myocardial damage by developing individual preventive measures and correcting chemotherapy.

Abstract
We performed a genome‐wide association study to investigate the association between single nucleotide polymorphisms and anthracycline‐induced cardiotoxicity (ACT) in patients diagnosed with early breast cancer. From January 2000 to December 2015, 8490 patients underwent breast surgery at the National Cancer Center in Korea. Patients who received doxorubicin (cumulative dose 240 mg/m2‐300 mg/m2) with or without trastuzumab as a neoadjuvant/adjuvant therapy were included in our cohort. Sixty‐seven patients in our cohort were diagnosed with ACT. Clinical data, including age, body weight, height, cancer stage, trastuzumab treatment, comorbidities, and concomitant medications, were collected retrospectively. Patients were classified as having either persistent or transient ACT based on their clinical course. In total, 346 946 single nucleotide polymorphisms in 42 cases and 215 controls were tested in this study. Body mass index (BMI) ≥25 kg/m2 [odds ratio (OR) = 2.45, 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.23‐4.88, P = .011] and trastuzumab use (OR = 2.40, 95% CI, 1.11‐5.17, P = .026) were identified as significant risk factors. We found 7 genetic variants for ACT including rs17530621 (SHISA3, P = 3.10E−06), rs11894115 (MPP4, P = 4.71E−06), rs58328254 (RPL7, P = 6.09E−06), and rs117299725 (PRUNE2, P = 8.53E−06), although none of these variants reached the Bonferroni‐corrected significance level when adjusted for BMI and trastuzumab use ( = α1.44E−07 based on 0.05/346 946). rs117299725 was a common variant when only the persistent ACT group was analyzed separately. It is meaningful that our study analyzed comprehensively the influence of genetic variation on ACT, along with some clinical factors in Asian breast cancer patients who received anthracycline with or without trastuzumab. Further research will be needed on candidate genetic variants found in this study.
