Cancer survivorship at heart: a multidisciplinary cardio-oncology roadmap for healthcare professionals. Front Cardiovasc Med 2023; 10:1223660. [PMID: 37786510 PMCID: PMC10541962 DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2023.1223660] [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: 05/16/2023] [Accepted: 08/24/2023] [Indexed: 10/04/2023] Open
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
Cardiovascular disease is a major cause of mortality among oncologic patients. As cancer therapies continue to evolve and advance, cancer survival rates have been increasing and so has the burden of cardiovascular disease within this population. For this reason, cardio-oncology plays an important role in promoting multidisciplinary care with the primary care provider, oncology, and cardiology. In this review, we discuss the roles of different providers, strategies to monitor patients receiving cardiotoxic therapies, and summarize cancer therapy class-specific toxicities. Continued collaboration among providers and ongoing research related to cardiotoxic cancer therapies will enable patients to receive maximal, evidence-based, comprehensive care.

Bladder Cancer and Risk Factors: Data from a Multi-Institutional Long-Term Analysis on Cardiovascular Disease and Cancer Incidence. J Pers Med 2023; 13:jpm13030512. [PMID: 36983694 PMCID: PMC10056598 DOI: 10.3390/jpm13030512] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 17.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/18/2023] [Revised: 03/03/2023] [Accepted: 03/11/2023] [Indexed: 03/14/2023] Open
Abstract
Background: Bladder cancer (BCa) is a heterogeneous disease with a variable prognosis and natural history. Cardiovascular disease (CVD), although completely different, has several similarities and possible interactions with cancer. The association between them is still unknown, but common risk factors between the two suggest a shared biology. Materials and Methods: This was a retrospective study that included patients who underwent transurethral resection of bladder tumor at two high-volume institutions. Depending on the presence of a previous history of CVD or not, patients were divided into two groups. Results: A total of 2050 patients were included, and 1638 (81.3%) were diagnosed with bladder cancer. Regarding comorbidities, the most common were hypertension (59.9%), cardiovascular disease (23.4%) and diabetes (22.4%). At univariate analysis, independent risk factors for bladder cancer were age and male sex, while protective factors were cessation of smoking and presence of CVD. All these results, except for ex-smoker status, were confirmed at the multivariate analysis. Another analysis was performed for patients with high-risk bladder cancer and, in this case, the role of CVD was not statistically significant. Conclusions: Our study pointed out a positive association between CVD and BCa incidence; CVD was an independent protective factor for BCa. This effect was not confirmed for high-risk tumors. Several biological and genomics mechanisms clearly contribute to the onset of both diseases, suggesting a possible shared disease pathway and highlighting the complex interplay of cancer and CVD. CVD treatment can involve different drugs with a possible effect on cancer incidence, but, to date, findings are still inconclusive.

Trends in Incidence and Mortality of Kidney Cancer in a Northern Italian Province: An Update to 2020. BIOLOGY 2022; 11:biology11071048. [PMID: 36101426 PMCID: PMC9311977 DOI: 10.3390/biology11071048] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/28/2022] [Revised: 07/11/2022] [Accepted: 07/11/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
The aim of this study was to examine the incidence and mortality trends for tumors and cardiovascular disease (CVD) in a province of northern Italy. The study included kidney cancers recorded in the period 1996−2020, divided by sex, age, year of incidence and years from diagnosis. The standardized incidence rate was calculated using the European population, and the Annual Percent Change (APC) was reported. In total, 2331 patients with kidney cancers were identified, mainly males (1504 cases) aged 60−79 years (1240 cases). There were 1257 deaths; there were no differences according sex but there were differences according to age (12.1% among younger adults and 80.4% among 80+). The incidence rate increased in males between 1996 and 2011 (APC = 2.3), while the mortality rate decreased in both males (APC = −3.3%) and females (APC = −4.5%). Comparing the same periods, kidney cancer-specific mortality decreased from 81.8% to 43.7%, while in the same period there was an increasing trend for CVD mortality. Moreover, the risk of CVD mortality increased as we moved away from the diagnosis (from 6.2% to 27.5%, p < 0.01). The same trend was observed for other causes of death (from 12.6% to 32.1%, p < 0.01). Thus, a multidisciplinary approach seems necessary during the follow-up and treatments of patients with kidney cancer.
