Abstract
Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor-Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) are a class of oral targeted anticancer drugs that have been demonstrated to significantly inhibit tumor progression and improve clinical prognosis in patients diagnosed with EGFR-mutated tumors, particularly in those with non-small cell lung cancer. However, the sustained usage of EGFR-TKIs may cause potential cardiotoxicity, thus limiting their applicability. The primary objective of this review is to systematically analyze the evolving landscape of research pertaining to EGFR-TKI-induced cardiotoxicity and elucidate its underlying mechanisms, such as PI3K signaling pathway inhibition, ion channel blockade, oxidative stress, inflammatory responses, and apoptosis. Additionally, the review includes an exploration of risk assessment for cardiotoxicity induced by EGFR-TKIs, along with management and response strategies. Prospective research directions are outlined, emphasizing the need for more accurate predictors of cardiotoxicity and the development of innovative intervention strategies. In summation, this review consolidates recent research advances, illuminates the risks associated with EGFR-TKI-induced cardiac toxicity and presents crucial insights for refining clinical dosage protocols, optimizing patient management strategies, and unraveling the intricate mechanisms governing EGFR-TKI-induced cardiotoxicity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) are widely used in the treatment of hematologic malignancies. Limited studies have shown an association between treatment-limiting arrhythmias and TKI, particularly ibrutinib, a Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitor. We sought to comprehensively assess the arrhythmia burden in patients receiving ibrutinib vs non-BTK TKI vs non-TKI therapies. METHODS We performed a retrospective analysis of consecutive patients who received long-term cardiac event monitors while on ibrutinib, non-BTK TKIs, or non-TKI therapy for a hematologic malignancy between 2014 and 2022. RESULTS One hundred ninety-three patients with hematologic malignancies were included (ibrutinib = 72, non-BTK TKI = 46, non-TKI therapy = 75). The average duration of TKI therapy was 32 months in the ibrutinib group vs 64 months in the non-BTK TKI group (p = 0.003). The ibrutinib group had a higher prevalence of atrial fibrillation (n = 32 [44%]) compared to the non-BTK TKI (n = 7 [15%], p = 0.001) and non-TKI (n = 15 [20%], p = 0.002) groups. Similarly, the prevalence of non-sustained ventricular tachycardia was higher in the ibrutinib group (n = 31, 43%) than the non-BTK TKI (n = 8 [17%], p = 0.004) and non-TKI groups (n = 20 [27%], p = 0.04). TKI therapy was held in 25% (n = 18) of patients on ibrutinib vs 4% (n = 2) on non-BTK TKIs (p = 0.005) secondary to arrhythmias. CONCLUSIONS In this large retrospective analysis of patients with hematologic malignancies, patients receiving ibrutinib had a higher prevalence of atrial and ventricular arrhythmias compared to those receiving other TKI, with a higher rate of treatment interruption due to arrhythmias.

Abstract
Breast cancer is characterized by the uncontrolled proliferation of breast cells, with a high incidence reported in 2020 to have affected over 2 million women. In recent years, the conventional methods of treating breast cancer have involved radiotherapy and chemotherapy. However, the emergence of CDK4/6 inhibitors has shown potential as a promising cancer therapy. Cyclin-dependent kinases (CDK) inhibitors are a class of molecules that impede the formation of an active kinase complex, thereby hindering its activity and consequently halting the progression of the cell cycle. It was discovered that they have a significant impact on impeding the progression of the cancer. This is evident with the Food and Drug Administration's approval of drugs such as palbociclib, ribociclib, and abemaciclib for hormone receptor-positive metastatic breast cancer in combination with specific endocrine therapies. In spite of enormous success in breast cancer treatment, certain obstacles have emerged, such as therapy resistance, side effects, and most of all, cardiotoxicity. Some of these drawbacks have been successfully overcome by dosage reduction, different combinations of the drugs, and the assessment of each patient's condition and suitability prior to treatment. Yet other drawbacks still require tenacious research, especially certain cases of cardiotoxicities. This article delves into the biological mechanisms of CDK4/6 in the cell cycle and cancer, as well as the clinical advantages and most common adverse events (AEs) associated with CDK4/6 inhibitors. The primary objective of this review is to provide a comprehensive analysis of cardiotoxic AEs and elucidate the underlying pathophysiological mechanisms responsible for the cardiotoxicity of CDK4/6 inhibitors.

Abstract
Cardiovascular disease and cancer are the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in the US. Despite the significant progress made in cancer treatment leading to improved prognosis and survival, ventricular arrhythmias (VA) remain a known cardiovascular complication either exacerbated or induced by the direct and indirect effects of both traditional and novel cancer treatments. Although interruption of cancer treatment because of VA is rarely required, knowledge surrounding this issue is essential for optimising the overall care of patients with cancer. The mechanisms of cancer-therapeutic-induced VA are poorly understood. This review will discuss the ventricular conduction (QRS) and repolarisation abnormalities (QTc prolongation), and VAs associated with cancer therapies, as well as existing strategies for the identification, prevention and management of cancer-treatment-induced VAs.

Abstract
Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have revolutionized the treatment of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) but their use was associated with a range of serious cardiopulmonary toxicities including vascular adverse events, QT prolongation, heart failure, pleural effusion, and pulmonary arterial hypertension. Dedicated clinical management guidelines for TKI-induced toxicities are not available. This review aims to discuss TKI-associated cardiopulmonary toxicities and proposes a practical guide for their management.

Abstract
Objective As a standard therapy, tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) improved survival in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation. However, treatment-related cardiotoxicity, particularly arrhythmia, cannot be ignored. With the prevalence of EGFR mutations in Asian populations, the risk of arrhythmia among patients with NSCLC remains unclear. Methods Using data from the Taiwanese National Health Insurance Research Database and National Cancer Registry, we identified patients with NSCLC from 2001 to 2014. Using Cox proportional hazards models, we analyzed outcomes of death and arrhythmia, including ventricular arrhythmia (VA), sudden cardiac death (SCD), and atrial fibrillation (AF). The follow-up duration was three years. Results In total, 3876 patients with NSCLC treated with TKIs were matched to 3876 patients treated with platinum analogues. After adjusting for age, sex, comorbidities, and anticancer and cardiovascular therapies, patients receiving TKIs had a significantly lower risk of death (adjusted HR: 0.767; CI: 0.729-0.807, p < 0.001) than those receiving platinum analogues. Given that approximately 80% of the studied population reached the endpoint of mortality, we also adjusted for mortality as a competing risk. Notably, we observed significantly increased risks of both VA (adjusted sHR: 2.328; CI: 1.592-3.404, p < 0.001) and SCD (adjusted sHR: 1.316; CI: 1.041-1.663, p = 0.022) among TKI users compared with platinum analogue users. Conversely, the risk of AF was similar between the two groups. In the subgroup analysis, the increasing risk of VA/SCD persisted regardless of sex and most cardiovascular comorbidities. Conclusions Collectively, we highlighted a higher risk of VA/SCD in TKI users than in patients receiving platinum analogues. Further research is needed to validate these findings.

Abstract
As medicine advances to employ sophisticated anticancer agents to treat a vast array of oncological conditions, it is worth considering side effects associated with several chemotherapeutics. One adverse effect observed with several classes of chemotherapy agents is cardiotoxicity which leads to reduced ejection fraction (EF), cardiac arrhythmias, hypertension and Ischemia/myocardial infarction that can significantly impact the quality of life and patient outcomes. Research into possible mechanisms has elucidated several mechanisms, such as ROS generation, calcium overload and apoptosis. However, there is a relative scarcity of literature detailing the relationship between the exact mechanism of cardiotoxicity for each anticancer agent and observed clinical effects. This review comprehensively describes cardiotoxicity associated with various classes of anticancer agents and possible mechanisms. Further research exploring possible mechanisms for cardiotoxicity observed with anticancer agents could provide valuable insight into susceptibility for developing symptoms and management guidelines.

Abstract
Futibatinib, a fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) 1-4 inhibitor, is being investigated for FGFR-aberrant tumors. A 4-period, crossover, phase 1 thorough QT/QTc study compared effects on Fridericia heart rate-corrected QT (QTcF) interval of single doses of futibatinib 20 and 80 mg (therapeutic and supratherapeutic doses, respectively), placebo, and moxifloxacin (positive control) in healthy subjects. The study objective was to assess the time-matched difference in change from baseline in QTcF (ddQTcF) between futibatinib and placebo. In addition, changes from baseline in QTcF and other electrocardiogram (ECG) parameters, pharmacokinetics, ECG morphology, and safety were assessed. Forty-eight subjects were randomized. ddQTcF upper limits of 2-sided 90%CIs remained <10 milliseconds (clinical threshold) for both futibatinib doses at all time points (range, 2.0-4.5 milliseconds). Assay sensitivity was demonstrated by lower limits of 2-sided 97.5%CIs of the dQTcF difference between moxifloxacin and placebo of >5 milliseconds. Futibatinib exposure increased in a dose-dependent manner, and no significant relationship was detected between plasma futibatinib concentration and ddQTcF. There were no significant effects on heart rate, other ECG parameters, or ECG morphology. No serious adverse events occurred. Futibatinib did not prolong QTcF or affect other cardiac measures at therapeutic or supratherapeutic doses.

Abstract
Drug-drug interactions (DDIs) are a major concern for the safe use of medications. Breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP) is a clinically relevant ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter for drug disposition. Inhibition of BCRP increases the plasma concentrations of BCRP substrate drugs, which potentially could lead to adverse drug reactions. The aim of the present study was to identify BCRP inhibitors amongst a library of 232 commonly used drugs and anticancer drugs approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA). BCRP inhibition studies were carried out using the vesicular transport assay. We found 75 drugs that reduced the relative transport activity of BCRP to less than 25% of the vehicle control and were categorized as strong inhibitors. The concentration required for 50% inhibition (IC50) was determined for 13 strong inhibitors that were previously poorly characterized for BCRP inhibition. The IC50 ranged from 1.1 to 11 µM, with vemurafenib, dabigatran etexilate and everolimus being the strongest inhibitors. According to the drug interaction guidance documents from the FDA and the European Medicines Agency (EMA), in vivo DDI studies are warranted if the theoretical intestinal luminal concentration of a drug exceeds its IC50 by tenfold. Here, the IC50 values for eight of the drugs were 100-fold lower than their theoretical intestinal luminal concentration. Moreover, a mechanistic static model suggested that vemurafenib, bexarotene, dabigatran etexilate, rifapentine, aprepitant, and ivacaftor could almost fully inhibit intestinal BCRP, increasing the exposure of concomitantly administered rosuvastatin over 90%. Therefore, clinical studies are warranted to investigate whether these drugs cause BCRP-mediated DDIs in humans.

Drugs Real World Outcomes 2022; 9:551-559. [PMID: 35994235 PMCID: PMC9712895 DOI: 10.1007/s40801-022-00328-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Accepted: 08/09/2022] [Indexed: 01/08/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Drugs with new mechanisms of action are continually being developed, but it is difficult to capture whether a drug induces QT prolongation/torsade de pointes (TdP) in preclinical and preapproval clinical trials. OBJECTIVE To evaluate drugs associated with drug-induced QT prolongation/TdP using a real-world database in Japan. PATIENTS AND METHODS A search was performed in the Japanese Adverse Drug Event Report (JADER) database for QT prolongation and TdP. The reporting odds ratio (ROR) was calculated to identify potential drug-induced QT prolongation/TdP association. RESULTS Among the reported 4,326,484 data entries, 3410 patients exhibited QT prolongation/TdP (2707 with QT prolongation, 703 with TdP) with the suspected drugs. Of these patients, 53.9% were females. The highest occurrence was in the 70- to 79-year-old age group (24.7%). The most common types of drugs involved were cardiovascular drugs, central nervous system (CNS) drugs, anticancer drugs, and anti-infective drugs; the rate of overdose was reportedly very low at 1.6%. The highest adjusted RORs were observed for nifekalant (351.41, 95% confidence interval (CI) 235.85-523.59), followed by vandetanib (182.55, 95% CI 108.11-308.24), evocalcet (181.59, 95% CI 132.96-248.01), bepridil (160.37, 95% CI 138.17-186.13), diarsenic trioxide (79.43, 95% CI 63.98-98.62), and guanfacine (78.29, 95% CI 58.51-104.74). Among the drugs launched in Japan during the last decade, vandetanib had the highest adjusted RORs. CONCLUSIONS This study using the JADER database showed that antiarrhythmic drugs, calcium-sensing receptor agonists, small-molecule targeted anticancer drugs, and CNS drugs are associated with QT prolongation/TdP. Further pharmacoepidemiological studies, such as cohort studies using large databases, are needed to prove these causal relationships.

Abstract
Ibrutinib is the first-in-class Bruton tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitor that has revolutionized the treatment of B cell malignancies. Unfortunately, increased incidences of cardiotoxicity have limited its use. Despite over a decade of research, the biological mechanisms underlying ibrutinib cardiotoxicity remain unclear. In this review, we discuss the pharmacological properties of ibrutinib, the incidence and mechanisms of ibrutinib-induced cardiotoxicity, and practical management to prevent and treat this condition. We also synopsize and discuss the cardiovascular adverse effects related to other more selective BTK inhibitors, which may guide the selection of appropriate BTK inhibitors.

Abstract
It is important for elucidating the regulation mechanism of life activities, as well as for the prevention, diagnosis, and drug design of diseases, to study protein–protein interactions (PPIs). Here, we investigated the interactions of human serum albumin (HSA) in the presence of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs: imatinib, nilotinib, dasatinib, bosutinib, and ponatinib) using atomic force microscopy (AFM). The distribution of rupture events including the specific interaction force Fi and the non-specific interaction force F0 between HSA pairs was analyzed. Based on the force measurements, Fi and F0 between HSA pairs in the control experiment were calculated to be 47 ± 1.5 and 116.1 ± 1.3 pN. However, Fi was significantly decreased in TKIs, while F0 was slightly decreased. By measuring the rupture forces at various loading rates and according to the Bell equation, the kinetic parameters of the complexes were investigated in greater detail. Molecular docking was used as a complementary means by which to explore the force of this effect. The whole measurements indicated that TKIs influenced PPIs in a variety of ways, among which hydrogen bonding and hydrophobic interactions were the most important. In conclusion, these outcomes give us a better insight into the mechanisms of PPIs when there are exogenous compounds present as well as in different liquid environments.

Abstract
Kinase inhibitors (KIs) represent a growing class of drugs directed at various protein kinases and used in the treatment of both solid tumors and hematologic malignancies. It is a heterogeneous group of compounds that are widely applied not only in different types of tumors but also in tumors that are positive for a specific predictive factor. This review summarizes common cardiotoxic effects of KIs, including hypertension, arrhythmias with bradycardia and QTc prolongation, and cardiomyopathy that can lead to heart failure, as well as less common effects such as fluid retention, ischemic heart disease, and elevated risk of thromboembolic events. The guidelines for cardiac monitoring and management of the most common cardiotoxic effects of protein KIs are discussed. Potential signaling pathways affected by KIs and likely contributing to cardiac damage are also described. Finally, the need for further research into the molecular mechanisms underlying the cardiovascular toxicity of these drugs is indicated.
