Abstract
The long-term survivorship of patients diagnosed with cancer has improved due to accelerated detection and rapidly evolving cancer treatment strategies. As such, the evaluation and management of cancer therapy related complications has become increasingly important, including cardiovascular complications. These have been captured under the umbrella term "cardiotoxicity" and include left ventricular dysfunction and heart failure, acute coronary syndromes, valvular abnormalities, pericardial disease, arrhythmia, myocarditis, and vascular complications. These complications add to the burden of cardiovascular disease (CVD) or are risk factors patients with cancer treatment are presenting with. Of note, both pre- and newly developing CVD is of prognostic significance, not only from a cardiovascular perspective but also overall, potentially impacting the level of cancer therapy that is possible. Currently, there are varying recommendations and practices regarding CVD risk assessment and mitigating strategies throughout the cancer continuum. This article provides an overview on this topic, in particular, the role of cardiac imaging in the care of the patient with cancer. Furthermore, it summarizes the current evidence on the spectrum, prevention, and management of chemotherapy-related adverse cardiac effects.

Abstract
The last decade has witnessed a paradigm shift in cancer therapy, from non-specific cytotoxic chemotherapies to agents targeting specific molecular mechanisms. Nonetheless, cardiovascular toxicity of cancer therapies remains an important concern. This is particularly relevant given the significant improvement in survival of solid and haematological cancers achieved in the last decades. Cardio-oncology is a subspecialty of medicine focusing on the identification and prevention of cancer therapy-related cardiovascular toxicity (CTR-CVT). This review will examine the new definition of CTR-CVT and guiding principles for baseline cardiovascular assessment and risk stratification before cancer therapy, providing take-home messages for non-specialized cardiologists.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) has been described in patients treated with proteasome inhibitors (PIs). Our objective was to evaluate the association between PIs and PAH. METHODS Characteristics of incident PAH cases previously treated with carfilzomib or bortezomib were analysed from the French pulmonary hypertension registry and the VIGIAPATH programme from 2004 to 2023, concurrently with a pharmacovigilance disproportionality analysis using the World Health Organization (WHO) global database (VigiBase) and a meta-analysis of randomised controlled trials. RESULTS 11 incident cases of PI-associated PAH were identified (six with carfilzomib and five with bortezomib) with a female:male ratio of 2.7:1, a median age of 61 years, and a median delay between PI first exposure and PAH of 6 months. Four patients died (two from right heart failure, one from respiratory distress and one from an unknown cause). At diagnosis, six were in New York Heart Association Functional Class III/IV with severe haemodynamic impairment (median mean pulmonary arterial pressure 39 mmHg, cardiac index 2.45 L·min-1·m-2 and pulmonary vascular resistance 7.2 WU). In the WHO pharmacovigilance database, 169 cases of PH associated with PI were reported since 2013 with significant signals of disproportionate reporting (SDR) for carfilzomib, regardless of the definition of cases or control group. However, SDR for bortezomib were inconsistent. The systematic review identified 17 clinical trials, and carfilzomib was associated with a significantly higher risk of dyspnoea, severe dyspnoea and PH compared with bortezomib. CONCLUSION PIs may induce PAH in patients undergoing treatment, with carfilzomib emitting a stronger signal than bortezomib, and these patients should be monitored closely.

Abstract
As a treatment for relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma (MM), carfilzomib has been associated with a significant risk of cardiovascular adverse events (CVAE). The goals of our study were to evaluate the metabolomic profile of MM patients to identify those at high risk prior to carfilzomib treatment and to explore the mechanisms of carfilzomib-CVAE to inform potential strategies to protect patients from this cardiotoxicity. Global metabolomic profiling was performed on the baseline and post-baseline plasma samples of 60 MM patients treated with carfilzomib-based therapy, including 31 who experienced CVAE, in a prospective cohort study. Baseline metabolites and post-baseline/baseline metabolite ratios that differ between the CVAE and no-CVAE patients were identified using unadjusted and adjusted methods. A baseline metabolomic risk score was created to stratify patients. We observed a lower abundance of tauroursodeoxycholic acid (T-UDCA) in CVAE patients at baseline (odds ratio [OR] = 0.47, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.21-0.94, p = 0.044) compared with the no-CVAE patients. A metabolite risk score was able to stratify patients into three risk groups. The area under the receiver-operating curve of the model with clinical predictors and metabolite risk score was 0.93. Glycochenodeoxycholic acid (OR = 0.56, 95% CI = 0.31-0.87, p = 0.023) was significantly lower in post-baseline/baseline ratios of CVAE patients compared with no-CVAE patients. Following metabolomic analysis, we created a baseline metabolite risk score that can stratify MM patients into different risk groups. The result also provided intriguing clues about the mechanism of carfilzomib-CVAE and potential cardioprotective strategies.

Abstract
Proteasome degradation is an integral part of cellular growth and function. Proteasomal intervention may mitigate adverse myocardial remodeling, but is associated with the onset of heart failure. Previously, we have demonstrated that increasing abundance of cardiac Lmp2 and its incorporation into proteasome complexes is an endogenous mechanism for proteasome regulation during hypertrophic remodeling of the heart induced by chronic ß-adrenoreceptor stimulation. Here, we investigated whether Lmp2 is required for myocardial remodeling not driven by inflammation and show that Lmp2 is a tipping element for growth and function in the heart but not for proteasome insufficiency. While it has no apparent impact under unchallenged conditions, myocardial remodeling without Lmp2 exacerbates hypertrophy and restricts cardiac function. Under chronic ß-adrenoreceptor stimulation, as seen in the development of cardiovascular disease and the manifestation of heart failure, genetic ablation of Lmp2 in mice caused augmented concentric hypertrophy of the left ventricle. While the heart rate was similarly elevated as in wildtype, myocardial contractility was not maintained without Lmp2, and apparently uncoupled of the ß-adrenergic response. Normalized to the exacerbated myocardial mass, contractility was reduced by 41% of the pretreatment level, but would appear preserved at absolute level. The lack of Lmp2 interfered with elevated 26S proteasome activities during early cardiac remodeling reported previously, but did not cause bulk proteasome insufficiency, suggesting the Lmp2 containing proteasome subpopulation is required for a selected group of proteins to be degraded. In the myocardial interstitium, augmented collagen deposition suggested matrix stiffening in the absence of Lmp2. Indeed, echocardiography of left ventricular peak relaxation velocity (circumferential strain rate) was reduced in this treatment group. Overall, targeting Lmp2 in a condition mimicking chronic ß-adrenoreceptor stimulation exhibited the onset of heart failure. Anticancer therapy inhibiting proteasome activity, including Lmp2, is associated with adverse cardiac events, in particular heart failure. Sparing Lmp2 may be an avenue to reduce adverse cardiac events when chronic sympathetic nervous system activation cannot be excluded.

Abstract
Cancer survivors are at significant risk of cardiovascular (CV) morbidity and mortality; patients with hematologic malignancies have a higher rate of death due to heart failure compared to all other cancer subtypes. The majority of conventional hematologic cancer treatments is associated with increased risk of acute and long-term CV toxicity. The incidence of cancer therapy induced CV toxicity depends on the combination of patient characteristics and on the type, dose, and duration of the therapy. Early diagnosis of CV toxicity, appropriate referral, more specific cardiac monitoring follow-up and timely interventions in target patients can decrease the risk of CV adverse events, the interruption of oncological therapy, and improve the patient's prognosis. Herein, we summarize the CV effects of conventional treatments used in hematologic malignancies with a focus on definitions and incidence of the most common CV toxicities, guideline recommended early detection approaches, and preventive strategies before and during cancer treatments.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although most studies on the cardiovascular toxicity of proteasome inhibitors have focused on carfilzomib, the risk of cardiotoxicity associated with bortezomib remains controversial. This study aimed to evaluate the incidence and risk factors of cardiovascular adverse events (CVAEs) associated with bortezomib in patients with multiple myeloma in a real-world setting. METHODS This cross-sectional study included patients who were treated with bortezomib at a tertiary hospital in South Korea. CVAEs, defined as hypertension, arrhythmia, heart failure, myocardial infarction, pulmonary arterial hypertension, angina, and venous thromboembolism, were detected using cardiac markers, ECG, echocardiography, medications, or documentation by clinicians. The patients were observed for at least 6 months and up to 2 years after starting bortezomib administration. RESULTS Among the 395 patients, 20.8% experienced CVAEs of any grade, and 14.7% experienced severe adverse events. The median onset time for any CVAE was 101.5 days (IQR, 42-182 days), and new-onset/worsened hypertension was the most prevalent CVAE. The risk of CVAEs increased in patients with a body mass index lower than 18.5 (adjusted HR (aHR) 3.50, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.05-11.72), light chain (1.80, 1.04-3.13), and IgD (4.63, 1.06-20.20) as the multiple myeloma subtype, baseline stroke (4.52, 1.59-12.80), and hypertension (1.99, 1.23-3.23). However, CVAEs did not significantly affect the 2-year overall survival and progression-free survival. CONCLUSION Approximately 15% of the Korean patients treated with bortezomib experienced severe CVAEs. Thus, patients, especially those with identified risk factors, should be closely monitored for CVAE symptoms during bortezomib treatment.

Abstract
Serum biomarkers represent a reproducible, sensitive, minimally invasive and inexpensive method to explore possible adverse cardiovascular effects of antineoplastic treatments. They are useful tools in risk stratification, the early detection of cardiotoxicity and the follow-up and prognostic assessment of cancer patients. In this literature review, we aim at describing the current state of knowledge on the meaning and the usefulness of cardiovascular biomarkers in patients with cancer; analyzing the intricate relationship between cancer and cardiovascular disease (especially HF) and how this affects cardiovascular and tumor biomarkers; exploring the role of cardiovascular biomarkers in the risk stratification and in the identification of chemotherapy-induced cardiotoxicity; and providing a summary of the novel potential biomarkers in this clinical setting.

Abstract
Coronary artery disease (CAD) is an important contributor to the cardiovascular burden in cancer survivors. The development of coronary ischemia events, myocardial infarction, and heart failure has been associated with many conventional chemotherapeutic agents, new targeted therapies, and immunotherapy. The most frequent pathological manifestations of chemotherapy-mediated coronary damage include acute vasospasm, acute thrombosis, accelerated atherosclerosis development, and microvascular dysfunction. Potential screening techniques for CAD patients include baseline risk factor evaluation, polygenic risk factors, and coronary artery calcium scores. Determining the risk requires consideration of both the type of chemotherapy and the type of cancer being treated. Cardiology-oncology guidelines offer some suggestions for the care of coronary artery disease, which might involve medication, lifestyle changes, and coronary revascularization.

Abstract
Multiple myeloma is a cancer of bone marrow plasma cells that represents approximately 10% of hematologic malignancies. Though it is typically incurable, a remarkable suite of new therapies developed over the last 25 years has enabled durable disease control in most patients. This article briefly introduces the clinical features of multiple myeloma and aspects of multiple myeloma biology that modern therapies exploit. Key current and emerging treatment modalities are then reviewed, including cereblon-modulating agents, proteasome inhibitors, monoclonal antibodies, other molecularly targeted therapies (selinexor, venetoclax), chimeric antigen receptor T cells, T cell-engaging bispecific antibodies, and antibody-drug conjugates. For each modality, mechanism of action and clinical considerations are discussed. These therapies are combined and sequenced in modern treatment pathways, discussed at the conclusion of the article, which have led to substantial improvements in outcomes for multiple myeloma patients in recent years.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cancer survivors are at increased risk for cardiovascular (CV) disease, although additional data are needed to better understand the incidence of CV events across different malignancies. This study sought to characterize the incidence of major adverse CV events [myocardial infarction, stroke, unstable angina (MACE), or heart failure (HF)] across multiple cancer types after cancer diagnosis. PATIENTS AND METHODS Patients were identified from a USA-based administrative claims database who had index cancer diagnoses of breast, lung, prostate, melanoma, myeloma, kidney, colorectal, leukemia, or lymphoma between 2011 and 2019, with continuous enrollment for ≥12 months before diagnosis. Baseline CV risk factors and incidence rates of CV events post-index were identified for each cancer. Multivariable Cox hazards models assessed the cumulative incidence of MACE, accounting for baseline risk factors. RESULTS Among 839 934 patients across nine cancer types, CV risk factors were prevalent. The cumulative incidence of MACE was highest in lung cancer and myeloma, and lowest in breast cancer, prostate cancer, and melanoma. MACE cumulative incidence for lung cancer was 26% by 4 years (2.7-fold higher relative to breast cancer). The incidence of stroke was especially pronounced in lung cancer, while HF was highest in myeloma and lung cancer. CONCLUSIONS CV events were especially increased following certain cancer diagnoses, even after accounting for baseline risk factors. Understanding the variable patient characteristics and associated CV events across different cancers can help target appropriate CV risk factor modification and develop strategies to minimize adverse CV events and improve patient outcomes.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) have emerged as a common and serious complication of cancer treatment, particularly in patients undergoing cardiotoxic therapies. Over the last few years, the medical community has become increasingly aware of the potential for cardiotoxicity resulting from cancer treatments involving chemotherapy, targeted therapies, and radiation therapy. This recognition is due to the significant risk of morbidity and mortality in cancer patients and survivors resulting from such treatment-induced cardiovascular damage. While the cardiotoxic effects of chemotherapy and targeted therapy have been discussed in medical literature, only a limited number of studies have explored the role of serum biomarkers in cardiological risk stratification. In recent years, serum biomarkers have emerged as a valuable tool for assessing and managing cardiotoxicity in patients with hematological malignancies. This review article provides a summary of the current state of knowledge on the usefulness of biomarkers in managing cardiotoxicity resulting from different targeted therapies throughout the cancer care continuum. Although cardiac biomarkers have demonstrated potential in identifying subclinical cardiotoxicity and tracking the response to cardioprotective treatments, further research is necessary to determine optimal biomarkers and surveillance strategies. The incorporation of cardiac biomarkers into clinical practice in patients undergoing targeted therapies could potentially lead to improved long-term cardiovascular outcomes in cancer patients and survivors.

Risk factors associated with overall survival in patients with multiple myeloma following carfilzomib treatment: A retrospective study from a large claims database in Japan. Cancer Med 2023; 12:19361-19371. [PMID: 37750384 PMCID: PMC10587963 DOI: 10.1002/cam4.6457] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/01/2023] [Revised: 07/13/2023] [Accepted: 08/03/2023] [Indexed: 09/27/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Carfilzomib is a selective proteasome inhibitor approved for treating relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM). Carfilzomib improves overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS); however, treatment with carfilzomib results in a higher incidence of cardiovascular and renal toxicity. More than 70% of patients with RRMM in clinical practice do not meet the eligibility criteria for randomized clinical trials (RCT). OS and PFS are negatively influenced by complications, concomitant medications and prior treatments. Therefore, we assessed the risk factors influencing the OS and time to next treatment (TTNT) in the real world. TTNT has emerged as a relevant alternative clinical endpoint to PFS. METHODS A retrospective analysis of a large claims database prepared during the post-marketing stages in Japan was performed. The patients treated with carfilzomib for the first time were identified. Multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression analysis was performed to evaluate the risk factors influencing OS and TTNT following carfilzomib treatment. RESULTS A total of 732 patients with RRMM who received carfilzomib-containing chemotherapy between April 2014 and September 2021 were identified. Multivariable Cox regression analysis for OS and TTNT showed a significantly higher hazard ratio (HR) of 1.48 (95% confidence interval [Cl]: 1.10-2.00; p = 0.010) and 1.38 (95% Cl: 1.15-1.65; p < 0.001), respectively, for patients with renal impairment compared to those without renal impairment. Multivariable Cox regression analysis for OS and TTNT showed a significantly higher HR of 1.80 (95% Cl: 1.27-2.55; p = 0.0010) and 1.38 (95% Cl: 1.14-1.66; p < 0.001), respectively, for patients with prior lenalidomide treatment compared to those without prior lenalidomide treatment. CONCLUSION Complication of renal impairment and prior lenalidomide treatment could be risk factors influencing OS and TTNT during carfilzomib treatment.

Abstract
In cancer, a patient is considered a survivor from the time of initial diagnosis until the end of life. With improvements in early diagnosis and treatment, the number of cancer survivors (CS) has grown considerably and includes: (1) Patients cured and free from cancer who may be at risk of late-onset cancer therapy-related cardiovascular toxicity (CTR-CVT); (2) Patients with long-term control of not-curable cancers in whom CTR-CVT may need to be addressed. This paper highlights the importance of the cancer care continuum, of a patient-centered approach and of a prevention-oriented policy. The ultimate goal is a personalized care of CS, achievable only through a multidisciplinary-guided survivorship care plan, one that replaces the fragmented management of current healthcare systems. Collaboration between oncologists and cardiologists is the pillar of a framework in which primary care providers and other specialists must be engaged and in which familial, social and environmental factors are also taken into account.

Abstract
Idecabtagene vicleucel (ide-cel) is a type of B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA)-targeting chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T) approved for the treatment of relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM). Currently, the incidence of cardiac events associated with ide-cel remains unclear. This was a retrospective single-center observational study of patients treated with ide-cel for RRMM. We included all consecutive patients who received standard-of-care ide-cel treatment at least 1-month follow-up. Baseline clinical risk factors, safety profile, and responses were examined based on the development of a cardiac event. A total of 78 patients were treated with ide-cel, and 11 patients (14.1%) developed cardiac events: heart failure (5.1%), atrial fibrillation (10.3%), nonsustained ventricular tachycardia (3.8%), and cardiovascular death (1.3%). Only 11 of the 78 patients had repeat echocardiogram. Baseline risk factors associated with the development of cardiac events included being female sex and having poor performance status, λ light-chain disease, and advanced Revised International Staging System stage. Baseline cardiac characteristics were not associated with cardiac events. During index hospitalization after CAR-T, higher-grade (≥grade 2) cytokine release syndrome (CRS) and immune cell-associated neurologic syndrome were associated with cardiac events. In multivariable analyses, the hazard ratio for the association of the presence of cardiac events with overall survival (OS) was 2.66 and progression-free survival (PFS) was 1.98. Ide-cel CAR-T for RRMM was associated with similar cardiac events as other types of CAR-T. Worse baseline performance status and higher-grade CRS and neurotoxicity were associated with cardiac events after BCMA-directed CAR-T-cell therapy. Our results suggest that the presence of cardiac events may confer worse PFS or OS; although because of the small sample size, the power to detect an association was limited.

Abstract
We report the case of an elderly woman who developed recurring episodes of unexplained cardiocirculatory arrest. The index event appeared during surgery to fix a fracture of the ankle and consisted of bradypnea, hypotension and asystole, coherent with a Bezold-Jarisch-like cardioprotective reflex. Classical signs of acute myocardial infarction were absent. Yet, occlusion of the right coronary artery (RCA) was observed and successfully revascularized, whereupon circulatory arrests vanished. We discuss several differential diagnoses. Unexplainable circulatory failure, with sinus bradycardia and arterial hypotension, despite lack of ECG signs of ischemia or significant troponin levels, suggest the action of cardioprotective reflexes of the autonomic nervous system. Coronary artery disease is a common source. Attention to cardioprotective reflexes should be taken in the case of unexplained cardiac arrest without overt reasons. We recommend performing coronary angiography to exclude significant coronary stenosis.

Abstract
Amyloid light-chain (AL) amyloidosis is a hematological disorder characterized by abnormal proliferation of a plasma cell clone producing monoclonal free light chains that misfold and aggregate into insoluble fibrils in various tissues. Cardiac involvement is a common feature leading to restrictive cardiomyopathy and poor prognosis. Current first-line treatments aim at achieving hematological response by targeting the plasma cell clones, and these have been adapted from multiple myeloma therapy. Patients with AL amyloidosis often exhibit multiorgan involvement, making them susceptible to cancer therapy-related cardiovascular toxicity. Managing AL amyloidosis is a complex issue that requires enhanced knowledge of the cardio-oncological implications of hematological treatments. Future research should focus on implementing and validating primary and secondary prevention strategies and understanding the biochemical basis of oncological therapy-related damage to mitigate cardiovascular toxicity.

Abstract
Background Proteasome inhibitor Carfilzomib (CFZ) is effective in treating patients with refractory or relapsed multiple myeloma (MM) but has been associated with cardiovascular adverse events (CVAE) such as hypertension, cardiomyopathy, and heart failure. This study aimed to investigate the contribution of germline genetic variants in protein-coding genes in CFZ-CVAE among MM patients using whole-exome sequencing (WES) analysis. Methods Exome-wide single-variant association analysis, gene-based analysis, and rare variant analyses were performed on 603,920 variants in 247 patients with MM who have been treated with CFZ and enrolled in the Oncology Research Information Exchange Network (ORIEN) at the Moffitt Cancer Center. Separate analyses were performed in European Americans and African Americans followed by a trans-ethnic meta-analysis. Results The most significant variant in the exome-wide single variant analysis was a missense variant rs7148 in the thymosin beta-10/TraB Domain Containing 2A (TMSB10/TRABD2A) locus. The effect allele of rs7148 was associated with a higher risk of CVAE [odds ratio (OR) = 9.3 with a 95% confidence interval of 3.9-22.3, p = 5.42*10-7]. MM patients with rs7148 AG or AA genotype had a higher risk of CVAE (50%) than those with GG genotype (10%). rs7148 is an expression quantitative trait locus (eQTL) for TRABD2A and TMSB10. The gene-based analysis also showed TRABD2A as the most significant gene associated with CFZ-CVAE (p = 1.06*10-6). Conclusions We identified a missense SNP rs7148 in the TMSB10/TRABD2A as associated with CFZ-CVAE in MM patients. More investigation is needed to understand the underlying mechanisms of these associations.

Abstract
Background Use of the proteasome inhibitor carfilzomib has become a standard of care in patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma. An association between carfilzomib and cardiovascular adverse events has been well documented, but this had not been investigated in a racially diverse population. Black patients in particular are underrepresented in the reported outcomes of treatment with carfilzomib. Objective The purpose of this study was to identify risk factors for carfilzomib-associated cardiovascular events in a diverse, single-center population. Methods We conducted a retrospective review of 161 patients with multiple myeloma treated with carfilzomib between 2011 and 2020 at the University of Maryland Medical Center. Over half (86) were Black patients, with the remainder (75) being White patients. We did a multivariate analysis to determine risk factors for developing cardiovascular events during treatment with carfilzomib. Results There was no statistically significant association with cardiotoxicity and race, gender, or age at first dose of carfilzomib. In multivariable analysis, patients with history of hypertension had a higher risk of cardiotoxicity [adjusted odds ratio (OR): 2.5; 95% CI: 1.1-5.9; P = 0.03] as did those with a history of smoking [OR: 2.8; 95% CI: 1.3-6.4; P = 0.01]. Conclusions Here we report the largest cohort of Black patients treated with carfilzomib as yet reported. The results of this single center retrospective study show history of hypertension and smoking are associated with carfilzomib associated cardiotoxicity in a diverse patient population. There is a need for well-designed prospective studies enrolling a diverse population to investigate potential interventions to prevent carfilzomib-associated cardiotoxicity.

Abstract
With the continuous improvement in survival of cancer patients, including those with multiple myeloma, related to the novel treatment agents and therapeutic approaches, the probability for patients to develop cardiovascular disease has significantly increased, especially in elderly patients and those with additional risk factors. Multiple myeloma is indeed a disease of the elderly population and so these patients are, solely by age, at an increased risk of cardiovascular disease. Risk factors for these events can be patient-, disease- and/or therapy-related, and they have been shown to adversely impact survival. Cardiovascular events affect around 7.5% of patients with multiple myeloma and the risk for different toxicities has considerably varied across trials depending on patients' characteristics and treatment utilized. High grade cardiac toxicity has been reported with immunomodulatory drugs (odds ratio [OR] around 2), proteasome inhibitors (OR 1.67-2.68 depending on the specific agent, and generally higher with carfilzomib), as well as other agents. Cardiac arrhythmias have also been reported with various therapies and drug interaction plays a significant role in that setting. Comprehensive cardiac evaluation before, during and after various anti-myeloma therapy is recommended and the incorporation of surveillance strategies allows early detection and management resulting in improved outcomes of these patients. Multidisciplinary interaction including hematologists and cardio-oncologists is critical for optimal patient care.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Multiple myeloma (MM) is associated with increased cardiovascular morbidity and mortality, while MM therapies also result in adverse cardiac effects. Endothelial dysfunction and impaired nitric oxide (NO) pathway is their possible mediator. OBJECTIVE Since MM is associated with increased arginase expression, resulting in the consumption of ʟ-arginine, precursor for NO synthesis, our aim was to test if cardiotoxicity mediated by MM and MM therapeutic, bortezomib (a proteasome inhibitor), can be ameliorated by an arginase inhibitor through improved endothelial function. METHODS We used a mouse Vĸ*MYC model of non-light chain MM. Cardiac function was assessed by echocardiography. RESULTS MM resulted in progressive left ventricular (LV) systolic dysfunction, and bortezomib exacerbated this effect, leading to significant impairment of LV performance. An arginase inhibitor, OAT-1746, protected the heart against bortezomib- or MM-induced toxicity but did not completely prevent the effects of the MM+bortezomib combination. MM was associated with improved endothelial function (assessed as NO production) vs. healthy controls, while bortezomib did not affect it. OAT-1746 improved endothelial function only in healthy mice. NO plasma concentration was increased by OAT-1746 but was not affected by MM or bortezomib. CONCLUSIONS Bortezomib exacerbates MM-mediated LV systolic dysfunction in a mouse model of MM, while an arginase inhibitor partially prevents it. Endothelium does not mediate either these adverse or beneficial effects. This suggests that proteasome inhibitors should be used with caution in patients with advanced myeloma, where the summation of cardiotoxicity could be expected. Therapies aimed at the NO pathway, in particular arginase inhibitors, could offer promise in the prevention/treatment of cardiotoxicity in MM.

Abstract
Cardiovascular (CV) events in patients with cancer can be caused by concomitant CV risk factors, cancer itself, and anticancer therapy. Since malignancy can dysregulate the hemostatic system, predisposing cancer patients to both thrombosis and hemorrhage, the administration of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) to patients with cancer who suffer from acute coronary syndrome (ACS) or undergo percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is a clinical challenge to cardiologists. Apart from PCI and ACS, other structural interventions, such as TAVR, PFO-ASD closure, and LAA occlusion, and non-cardiac diseases, such as PAD and CVAs, may require DAPT. The aim of the present review is to review the current literature on the optimal antiplatelet therapy and duration of DAPT for oncologic patients, in order to reduce both the ischemic and bleeding risk in this high-risk population.

Abstract
The treatment for multiple myeloma has advanced significantly over the past few decades. Proteasome inhibitors have become the cornerstone of the treatment of multiple myeloma. However, proteasome inhibitors have shown cardiovascular complications such as hypertension, pulmonary hypertension, heart failure, arrhythmias, ischaemic heart disease and thromboembolism. Detection, monitoring and management of proteasome inhibitor-related cardiovascular toxicity are essential to improve clinical outcomes for patients. Proposed mechanisms of proteasome inhibitor-related cardiovascular toxicity are apoptosis, prolonged inhibition of the ubiquitin-proteasome system, accumulation of improperly folded proteins within cardiomyocytes and higher protein phosphatase 2A activity. To better understand the mechanisms underlying cardiotoxicity, further in vitro and in vivo experiments are required to investigate these hypotheses. Combined use of metformin or angiotensin II receptor blockers with the proteasome inhibitor, carfilzomib, showed an emerging role as a prophylactic therapy because they can preserve heart function in multiple myeloma patients. Metformin is expected to be an effective therapeutic intervention for the management of carfilzomib-induced cardiotoxicity. There has been evidence that three compounds, apremilast, rutin, and dexrazoxane, can reverse carfilzomib-induced cardiotoxicity in rats. The future transition from animal experiments to clinical trials is worth waiting for.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Following significant advancements in cancer therapeutics and survival, the risk of cancer therapy-related cardiotoxicity (CTRC) is increasingly recognized. With ongoing efforts to reduce cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in cancer patients and survivors, cardiac biomarkers have been studied for both risk stratification and monitoring during and after therapy to detect subclinical disease. This article will review the utility for biomarker use throughout the cancer care continuum. RECENT FINDINGS A recent meta-analysis shows utility for troponin in monitoring patients at risk for CTRC during cancer therapy. The role for natriuretic peptides is less clear but may be useful in patients receiving proteasome inhibitors. Early studies explore use of myeloperoxidase, growth differentiation factor 15, galectin 3, micro-RNA, and others as novel biomarkers in CTRC. Biomarkers have potential to identify subclinical CTRC and may reveal opportunities for early intervention. Further research is needed to elucidate optimal biomarkers and surveillance strategies.

Thrombosis in multiple myeloma: Risk estimation by induction regimen and association with overall survival. Am J Hematol 2023; 98:413-420. [PMID: 36588396 DOI: 10.1002/ajh.26806] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/01/2022] [Revised: 10/27/2022] [Accepted: 11/28/2022] [Indexed: 01/03/2023]
Abstract
Lenalidomide-containing (R) triplet and quadruplet regimens are the standard of care for multiple myeloma (MM) and have been shown to increase the risk of thrombosis. The association between thromboembolism (TE) and survival in the novel multidrug era is not yet delineated. In this study, we evaluated the incidence of TE during the first year of MM diagnosis, its association with the type of induction regimen, and its impact on overall survival. We studied 672 newly diagnosed MM (NDMM) patients who received a triplet or quadruplet lenalidomide-based induction at the Mayo Clinic, Rochester. TE was diagnosed in 83 patients (12.4%). Of these, 56 (8.3%) had a deep venous thrombosis (DVT), 23 (3.4%) had a pulmonary embolism (PE) with or without the DVT, and 4 (0.6%) patients had a stroke. Carfilzomib-Rd (KRd) had the highest risk of TE (21.1%, 18/85), followed by quadruplets (11.1%, 5/45), bortezomib-Rd (9.6%, 51/531), and 0/11 (0%), treated with other lenalidomide-containing regimens. The difference in TE risk between KRd and the other regimens was statistically significant (OR = 2.6, p < .01). Nine patients developed a TE before being exposed to any treatment. Survival was significantly lower among patients that developed a TE (66 vs. 133 months, p < .01). The association of TE with reduced survival demonstrated in univariate analysis (HR = 2.2, 95% CI = 1.6-3.3) was maintained in the multivariable analysis adjusted for high-risk interphase fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), sex, age, receipt of an upfront transplant, the response at induction, and the International Staging System (ISS) (HR = 2.61, CI = 1.74-3.9). We conclude that TE is an important aspect of MM management, and effective management is especially relevant in the novel treatment era.

Patients with Very High Risk of Cardiovascular Adverse Events during Carfilzomib Therapy: Prevention and Management of Events in a Single Center Experience. Cancers (Basel) 2023; 15:cancers15041149. [PMID: 36831492 PMCID: PMC9953901 DOI: 10.3390/cancers15041149] [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: 12/29/2022] [Revised: 02/03/2023] [Accepted: 02/09/2023] [Indexed: 02/17/2023] Open
Abstract
Carfilzomib (CFZ) improves the prognosis of multiple myeloma (MM) patients but has shown cardiovascular toxicity. The risk stratification of cardiovascular adverse events (CVAEs) now seems well established, while little is known about the course and management of patients with a high-cardiovascular-risk profile or experiencing CVAEs during therapy. Therefore, we aimed to describe our experience in decision making to support health professionals in selecting the best management strategies to prevent and treat CVAEs. A total of 194 patients with indication to CFZ underwent baseline evaluation of CVAEs risk and were prospectively followed. We propose a novel approach, which includes advanced cardiac imaging testing for patients at high baseline CV risk to rule out clinical conditions that could contraindicate starting CFZ. After baseline evaluation, 19 (9.8%) patients were found at high risk of CVAEs: 13 (6.7%) patients underwent advanced cardiac testing and 3 (1.5%) could not receive CFZ due to CV contraindications. A total of 178 (91.7%) patients started CFZ: 82 (46%) experienced arterial-hypertension-related events and 37 (20.8%) major CVAEs; 19 (10.7%) patients had to discontinue or modify the CFZ dosing regimen. Along with baseline risk stratification, subsequent cardiovascular clinical events and diagnostic follow-up both provided critical data to help identify conditions that could contraindicate the anticancer therapy.

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.

Abstract
Cardiovascular disease, particularly coronary artery disease, is the leading cause of death in humans worldwide. Coronary heart disease caused by chemotherapy affects the prognosis and survival of patients with tumors. The most effective chemotherapeutic drugs for cancer include proteasome inhibitors, tyrosine kinase inhibitors, immune checkpoint inhibitors, 5-fluorouracil, and anthracyclines. Animal models and clinical trials have consistently shown that chemotherapy is closely associated with coronary events and can cause serious adverse cardiovascular events. Adverse cardiovascular events after chemotherapy can affect the clinical outcome, treatment, and prognosis of patients with tumors. In recent years, with the development of new chemotherapeutic drugs, new discoveries have been made about the effects of drugs used for chemotherapy on cardiovascular disease and its related mechanisms, such as inflammation. This review article summarizes the effects of chemotherapeutic drugs on coronary artery disease and its related mechanisms to guide efforts in reducing cardiovascular adverse events during tumor chemotherapy, preventing the development of coronary heart disease, and designing new prevention and treatment strategies for cardiotoxicity caused by clinical tumor chemotherapy.

Approaches to early diagnosis and prevention of cardiovascular toxicity induced by targeted drugs and immune checkpoint inhibitors in oncohematology: a literature review.

Abstract
The development of targeted drugs and immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), as well as their implementation into clinical practice has allowed increasing the overall and event-free survival of oncohematological patients. Currently, assessment of the efficacy of a therapeutic strategy in each specific case includes the evaluation of an acceptable tolerability profile. The subject of discussion includes cardiovascular complications induced by target drugs and ICIs. The review mainly presents the issues of cardiovascular toxicity (CVT) in certain groups of oncohematological patients (with chronic lymphocytic leukemia, chronic myeloid leukemia, multiple myeloma). The spectrum of cardiovascular adverse effects associated with targeted and ICI therapy in oncohematological practice is quite wide — coronary artery disease, peripheral arterial disease, myocarditis, heart failure, arrhythmias, hypertension. The high importance of the problem of using targeted and immunosuppressive therapy dictates the need to predict adverse effects. The diagnosis of heart failure (one of CVT manifestations) is based on determining the decreased left ventricular ejection fraction during echocardiography, less often — during cardiac magnetic resonance imaging; global longitudinal myocardial strain is a significant parameter of preclinical heart failure, which is determined using the speckle tracking technique. To determine vascular toxicity, a special attention is paid to the vascular wall structure and microcirculation parameters — capillary density at rest, percentage of capillary recovery and perfused capillaries, stiffness index for large blood vessels, reflection index for small arteries, laboratory markers of inflammation and endothelial dysfunction (C-reactive protein, fibrinogen, homocysteine, endothelin 1, vascular endothelial growth factor). CVT prevention presumes the determination of the risk group, correction of risk factors, and administration of protective therapy to very high and high-risk patients. One of the promising directions for preventing vascular toxicity is the use of sodium-glucose linked transporter-2 inhibitors.

Abstract
Carfilzomib is a proteasome inhibitor (PI) used in multiple myeloma (MM) that is resistant to other therapies. Despite its efficacy and potency, carfilzomib has been associated with kidney injuries, cardiovascular toxic effects, and hematological adverse events. Tumor lysis syndrome (TLS) following the use of PIs in MM, a malignancy not known to cause TLS, has seldom been reported. We present a case of a patient with a known diagnosis of MM who received prior therapy including bortezomib, a first-generation PI, developing worsening heart failure and new onset TLS days after the administration of carfilzomib.

Abstract
Cardio-oncology is a new multidisciplinary area of expertise that seeks to pre-emptively and proactively address cardiac complications that emerge during and following cancer therapy. Modern therapies including molecular targeted therapy and immunotherapy have broadened the agents that can cause cardiac sequelae, often with complications arising within days to weeks of therapy. Several international guidelines have been developed for the acute monitoring of cardio-oncology side effects. However, none are specific to pediatrics. We have addressed this gap in the literature by undertaking a rigorous Delphi consensus approach across 11 domains of cardio-oncology care using an Australian and New Zealand expert group. The expert group consisted of pediatric and adult cardiologists and pediatric oncologists. This Delphi consensus provides an approach to perform risk and baseline assessment, screening, and follow-up, specific to the cancer therapeutic. This review is a useful tool for clinicians involved in the cardio-oncology care of pediatric oncology patients.

Abstract
Multiple myeloma (MM) remains an incurable malignancy of plasma cells despite constantly evolving therapeutic approaches including various types of immunotherapy. Increased arginase activity has been associated with potent suppression of T-cell immune responses in different types of cancer. Here, we investigated the role of arginase 1 (ARG1) in Vκ*MYC model of MM in mice. ARG1 expression in myeloid cells correlated with tumor progression and was accompanied by a systemic drop in ʟ-arginine levels. In MM-bearing mice antigen-induced proliferation of adoptively transferred T-cells was strongly suppressed and T-cell proliferation was restored by pharmacological arginase inhibition. Progression of Vκ*MYC tumors was significantly delayed in mice with myeloid-specific ARG1 deletion. Arginase inhibition effectively inhibited tumor progression although it failed to augment anti-myeloma effects of bortezomib. However, arginase inhibitor completely prevented development of bortezomib-induced cardiotoxicity in mice. Altogether, these findings indicate that arginase inhibitors could be further tested as a complementary strategy in multiple myeloma to mitigate adverse cardiac events without compromising antitumor efficacy of proteasome inhibitors.

Abstract
Multiple myeloma is one of the most frequent hematological malignancies in the elderly and corresponds to the presence of a plasma cell clone. Antitumor treatment combines different therapeutics, including alkylating agents, high-dose corticosteroids, immunomodulators and proteasome inhibitors. These treatments can have cardiovascular side effects that are important to be aware of. The role of the cardiologist is essential in preventing, detecting and managing these effects properly in order to improve the cardiological and oncological prognosis of patients.

Abstract
The ubiquitin-proteasome pathway and its functional interplay with other proteostatic and/or mitostatic modules are crucial for cell viability, especially in post-mitotic cells like cardiomyocytes, which are constantly exposed to proteotoxic, metabolic, and mechanical stress. Consistently, treatment of multiple myeloma patients with therapeutic proteasome inhibitors may induce cardiac failure; yet the effects promoted by heart-targeted proteasome dysfunction are not completely understood. We report here that heart-targeted proteasome knockdown in the fly experimental model results in increased proteome instability and defective mitostasis, leading to disrupted cardiac activity, systemic toxicity, and reduced longevity. These phenotypes were partially rescued by either heart targeted- or by dietary restriction-mediated activation of autophagy. Supportively, activation of autophagy by Rapamycin or Metformin administration in flies treated with proteasome inhibitors reduced proteome instability, partially restored mitochondrial function, mitigated cardiotoxicity, and improved flies' longevity. These findings suggest that autophagic inducers represent a novel promising intervention against proteasome inhibitor-induced cardiovascular complications.

Abstract
Cardiotoxicity is one of the major side effects of anti-cancer therapy affecting the overall prognosis of patients and possibly leading to the discontinuation of chemotherapy. Traditional cardiovascular tests such as electrocardiography and transthoracic echocardiography have limited sensitivity and specificity for the early detection of myocardial injury. Cardiovascular imaging generally detects cancer therapy-related cardiac dysfunction (CTRCD) at advanced stages, whereas biomarkers are inexpensive, easily detected, reproducible, and capable of detecting even minimal cardiomyocyte damage or mild hemodynamic fluctuations. The presence of circulating cardiac biomarkers has been investigated as early indicators of cardiotoxicity and predictors of subsequent CTRCD. Currently, the most frequently used cardiac biomarkers are cardiac troponin (cTn) and natriuretic peptides (NPs). This review presents the evidence gathered so far regarding the usefulness and limitations of cardiac biomarkers in the field of cardio-oncology.

Abstract
Carfilzomib is a promising anticancer drug for relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM). However, real-world evidence has only investigated the cardiovascular safety of carfilzomib, and there is a high demand for thorough safety evaluations. We aimed to comprehensively evaluate the risk of adverse events associated with carfilzomib in Korean patients with RRMM. We followed up with 138 matched patients with RRMM (69 KRd (carfilzomib, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone) and 69 Rd (lenalidomide and dexamethasone) users). A total of 12 adverse events were evaluated. More than 75% of adverse events occurred during the early cycle (1-6 cycles), and the incidence rate showed a tendency to decrease in the later cycle (7-12 and 13-18 cycles). Severities of most adverse events were evaluated as grade 1-2. The KRd regimen were related with significantly increased risks of dyspnea (adjusted HR (aHR) 2.27, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.24-4.16), muscle spasm (aHR 5.12, 95% CI 1.05-24.9) and thrombocytopenia (aHR 1.84, 95% CI 1.10-3.06). Although the severities were low, carfilzomib has many side effects in treating RRMM; hence, findings on the patterns of its adverse events could lead to both effective and safe use of KRd therapy in real-world settings.

Abstract
The population of patients with cancer is rapidly expanding, and the diagnosis and monitoring of cardiovascular complications greatly rely on imaging. Numerous advances in the field of cardio-oncology and imaging have occurred in recent years. This review presents updated and practical approaches for multimodality cardiovascular imaging in the cardio-oncology patient and provides recommendations for imaging to detect the myriad of adverse cardiovascular effects associated with antineoplastic therapy, such as cardiomyopathy, atherosclerosis, vascular toxicity, myocarditis, valve disease, and cardiac masses. Uniquely, we address the role of cardiovascular imaging in patients with pre-existing cardiomyopathy, pregnant patients, long-term survivors, and populations with limited resources. We also address future avenues of investigation and opportunities for artificial intelligence applications in cardio-oncology imaging. This review provides a uniform practical approach to cardiovascular imaging for patients with cancer.

Abstract
This report summarizes the presentations, discussions, and recommendations of the most recent American Geriatrics Society and National Institute on Aging research conference, "Cancer and Cardiovascular Disease," on October 18-19, 2021. The purpose of this virtual meeting was to address the interface between cancer and heart disease, which are the two leading causes of death among older Americans. Age-related physiologic changes are implicated in the pathogenesis of both conditions. Emerging data suggest that cancer-related cardiovascular disease (CVD) involves disrupted cell signaling and cellular senescence. The risk factors for CVD are also risk factors for cancer and an increased likelihood of cancer death, and people who have both cancer and CVD do more poorly than those who have only cancer or only CVD. Issues addressed in this bench-to-bedside conference include mechanisms of cancer and CVD co-development in older adults, cardiotoxic effects of cancer therapy, and management of comorbid cancer and CVD. Presenters discussed approaches to ensure equitable access to clinical trials and health care for diverse populations of adults with CVD and cancer, mechanisms of cancer therapy cardiotoxicity, and management of comorbid CVD and cancer, including the role of patient values and preferences in treatment decisions. Workshop participants identified many research gaps and questions that could lead to an enhanced understanding of comorbid CVD and cancer and to better and more equitable management strategies.

Abstract
AIM Ubiquitin-Proteasome System (UPS) is of paramount importance regarding the function of the myocardial cell. Consistently, inhibition of this system has been found to affect myocardium in experimental models; yet, the clinical impact of UPS inhibition on cardiac function has not been comprehensively examined. Our aim was to gain insight into the effect of proteasome inhibition on myocardial mechanics in humans. METHODS AND RESULTS We prospectively evaluated 48 patients with multiple myeloma and an indication to receive carfilzomib, an irreversible proteasome inhibitor. All patients were initially evaluated and underwent echocardiography with speckle tracking analysis. Carfilzomib was administered according to Kd treatment protocol. Follow-up echocardiography was performed at the 3rd and 6th month. Proteasome activity (PrA) was measured in peripheral blood mononuclear cells.At 3 months after treatment, we observed early left ventricular (LV) segmental dysfunction and deterioration of left atrial (LA) remodelling, which was sustained and more pronounced than that observed in a cardiotoxicity control group. At 6 months, LV and right ventricular functions were additionally attenuated (P < 0.05 for all). These changes were independent of blood pressure, endothelial function, inflammation, and cardiac injury levels. Changes in PrA were associated with changes in global longitudinal strain (GLS), segmental LV strain, and LA markers (P < 0.05 for all). Finally, baseline GLS < -18% or LA strain rate > 1.71 were associated with null hypertension events. CONCLUSION Inhibition of the UPS induced global deterioration of cardiac function.

Abstract
This science advisory focuses on the need to better understand the epidemiology, pathophysiology, and treatment of pulmonary hypertension in patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction. This clinical phenotype is important because it is common, is strongly associated with adverse outcomes, and lacks evidence-based therapies. Our goal is to clarify key knowledge gaps in pulmonary hypertension attributable to heart failure with preserved ejection fraction and to suggest specific, actionable scientific directions for addressing such gaps. Areas in need of additional investigation include refined disease definitions and interpretation of hemodynamics, as well as greater insights into noncardiac contributors to pulmonary hypertension risk, optimized animal models, and further molecular studies in patients with combined precapillary and postcapillary pulmonary hypertension. We highlight translational approaches that may provide important biological insight into pathophysiology and reveal new therapeutic targets. Last, we discuss the current and future landscape of potential therapies for patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction and pulmonary vascular dysfunction, including considerations of precision medicine, novel trial design, and device-based therapies, among other considerations. This science advisory provides a synthesis of important knowledge gaps, culminating in a collection of specific research priorities that we argue warrant investment from the scientific community.

Abstract
Aim: To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of carfilzomib in a real-world setting. Methods: A post-marketing surveillance of Japanese patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma who received carfilzomib treatment was performed. Results: Overall incidences of adverse events of any grade, ≥grade 3 treatment-related adverse events and serious adverse events were 63.5, 44.6 and 37.7% of patients, respectively. No new safety findings were observed. Treatment-related adverse events of special interest (≥5%) were hematological toxicities, infectious disease, cardiac disorders (including cardiac failure, myocardial infarction and QT prolongation), renal disorders, liver failure or liver dysfunction, and hypertension or hypertensive crisis. The overall response rate was 46.5%. Conclusion: Carfilzomib was found to be a safe and effective treatment for relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma in Japanese patients.

Abstract
The quest of defeating cancer and improving prognosis in survivors has generated remarkable strides forward in research and have advanced the development of new antineoplastic therapies. These achievements, combined with rapid screening and early detection, have considerably extended the life expectancy of patients surviving multiple types of malignancies. Consequently, chemotherapy-related toxicity in several organ systems, especially the cardiovascular system, has surfaced as one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality among cancer survivors. Recent evidence classifies chemotherapy-induced cardiotoxicity as the second-leading cause of morbidity and mortality, closely comparing with secondary cancer malignancies. While a certain degree of cardiotoxicity has been reported to accompany most chemotherapies, including anthracyclines, anti-metabolites, and alkylating agents, even the latest targeted cancer therapies such as immune checkpoint inhibitors and tyrosine kinase inhibitors have been associated with acute and chronic cardiac sequelae. In this chapter, we focus on describing the principal mechanism(s) for each class of chemotherapeutic agents that lead to cardiotoxicity and the innovative translational research approaches that are currently being explored to prevent or treat cancer therapy-induced cardiotoxicity and related cardiac complications.

Abstract
Survival in cancer is continuously improving due to evolving oncological treatment. Therefore, cardiovascular short-term and long-term side effects gain crucial importance for overall outcome. Cardiotoxicity not only presents as heart failure, but also as treatment-resistant hypertension, acute coronary ischemia with plaque rupture or vasospasm, thromboembolism, arrhythmia, pulmonary hypertension, diastolic dysfunction, acute myocarditis and others. Recent recommendations have proposed baseline cardiac risk assessment and surveillance strategies. Major challenges are the availability of monitoring and imaging resources, including echocardiography with speckle tracking longitudinal strain (GLS), serum biomarkers such as natriuretic peptides (NT-proBNP) and highly sensitive cardiac troponins. This Austrian consensus encompasses cardiotoxicity occurrence in frequent antiproliferative cancer drugs, radiotherapy, immune checkpoint inhibitors and cardiac follow-up considerations in cancer survivors in the context of the Austrian healthcare setting. It is important to optimize cardiovascular risk factors and pre-existing cardiac diseases without delaying oncological treatment. If left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) deteriorates during cancer treatment (from >10% to <50%), or myocardial strain decreases (>15% change in GLS), early initiation of cardioprotective therapies (angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors, angiotensin or beta receptor blockers) is recommended, and LVEF should be reassessed before discontinuation. Lower LVEF cut-offs were recently shown to be feasible in breast cancer patients to enable optimal anticancer treatment. Interdisciplinary cardio-oncology cooperation is pivotal for optimal management of cancer patients.

Front Cardiovasc Med 2022; 9:739044. [PMID: 35498039 PMCID: PMC9051026 DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2022.739044] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/09/2021] [Accepted: 03/15/2022] [Indexed: 12/16/2022] Open
Abstract
BackgroundSeveral anti-cancer drugs have been linked to new onset atrial fibrillation (AF) but the true association of these drugs with AF is unknown. The FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS), a publicly available pharmacovigilance mechanism provided by the FDA, collects adverse event reports from the United States and other countries, thus providing real-world data.ObjectivesTo identify anti-cancer drugs associated with AF using the FAERS database.MethodsThe FAERS database was searched for all drugs reporting AF as an adverse event (AE). The top 30 anti-cancer drugs reporting AF cases were shortlisted and analyzed. Proportional reporting ratio (PRR) was used to measure disproportionality in reporting of adverse events for these drugs.ResultsWhen analyzed for AF as a percentage of all reported AE for a particular drug, Ibrutinib had the highest percentage (5.3%) followed distantly by venetoclax (1.6%), bortezomib (1.6%), carfilzomib (1.5%), and nilotinib (1.4%). The percentage of cardiac AE attributable to AF was also highest for ibrutinib (41.5%), followed by venetoclax (28.4%), pomalidomide (23.9%), bortezomib (18.2%), and lenalidomide (18.2%). Drugs with the highest PRR for AF included ibrutinib (5.96, 95% CI= 5.70–6.23), bortezomib (1.65, 95% CI = 1.52–1.79), venetoclax (1.65, 95% CI = 1.46–1.85), carfilzomib (1.53, 95% CI = 1.33–1.77), and nilotinib (1.46, 95% CI = 1.31–1.63).ConclusionsWhile newer anti-cancer drugs have improved the prognosis in cancer patients, it is important to identify any arrhythmias they may cause early on to prevent increased morbidity and mortality. Prospective studies are needed to better understand the true incidence of new onset AF associated with anti-cancer drugs.

Abstract
Until recently, cardiotoxicity in the setting of a malignant disease was attributed solely to the detrimental effects of chemo- and/or radio-therapy to the heart. On this account, the focus was on the evaluation of well-established cardiac biomarkers for the early detection of myocardial damage. Currently, this view has been revised. Cardiotoxicity is not restricted to a single organ but instead affects the endothelium as a whole. Indeed, it has come into light that not only cancer therapy but also malignant cells per se can impair the cardiovascular system, through a paracrine and endocrine mode of action. Even more intriguingly, a clear interplay between molecular pathways involved in cancer and cardiovascular disease has become prevalent, suggesting a common nominator that governs the pathophysiology of these two entities. Taken together, our strategy in the quest of novel biomarkers in the emerging field of cardio-oncology should be critically reshaped.

Artificial intelligence opportunities in cardio-oncology: Overview with spotlight on electrocardiography. AMERICAN HEART JOURNAL PLUS : CARDIOLOGY RESEARCH AND PRACTICE 2022; 15:100129.

Abstract
Cardiovascular disease is a leading cause of death among cancer survivors, second only to cancer recurrence or development of new tumors. Cardio-oncology has therefore emerged as a relatively new specialty focused on prevention and management of cardiovascular consequences of cancer therapies. Yet challenges remain regarding precision and accuracy with predicting individuals at highest risk for cardiotoxicity. Barriers such as access to care also limit screening and early diagnosis to improve prognosis. Thus, developing innovative approaches for prediction and early detection of cardiovascular illness in this population is critical. In this review, we provide an overview of the present state of machine learning applications in cardio-oncology. We begin by outlining some factors that should be considered while utilizing machine learning algorithms. We then examine research in which machine learning has been applied to improve prediction of cardiac dysfunction in cancer survivors. We also highlight the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in conjunction with electrocardiogram (ECG) to predict cardiac malfunction and also atrial fibrillation (AF), and we discuss the potential role of wearables. Additionally, the article summarizes future prospects and critical takeaways for the application of machine learning in cardio-oncology. This study is the first in a series on artificial intelligence in cardio-oncology, and complements our manuscript on echocardiography and other forms of imaging relevant to cancer survivors cared for in cardiology clinical practice.
