Heart failure after treatment for breast cancer

Abstract: Background We aimed to develop dose–response relationships for heart failure (HF) following radiation and anthracyclines in breast cancer treatment, and to assess HF associations with trastuzumab and endocrine therapies. Methods and results A case–control study was performed within a cohort of breast cancer survivors treated during 1980–2009. Cases (n = 102) had HF as first cardiovascular diagnosis and were matched 1:3 on age and date of diagnosis. Individual cardiac radiation doses were estimated, and anthrac… Show more

“…Women with breast cancer who received radiotherapy had a 30% greater risk for coronary heart disease, and a 38% greater risk for cardiac death compared with those who did not 69 . The risk for cardiotoxicity is increased when radiotherapy is used with concomitant anthracyclines 70,71 . Radiotherapy‐specific risk factors include the volume and dose to which the heart and its substructures are irradiated 72,73 .…”

“…Patients treated with anthracyclines had lower left ventricular ejection fraction and higher global longitudinal strain and N‐terminal pro‐B‐type natriuretic peptide compared to the others. Boekel et al . demonstrated a dose‐dependent increase in HF risk after anthracycline therapy.…”

“…In this issue of the Journal, Boekel et al 13 present a meticulous analysis of a prospective cohort of long-term BC survivors in a serious attempt to settle the question of the relationship between BC therapy and subsequent HF with reduced EF. The study population is limited to 102 middle-aged women with BC (median age: 51 years), who are compared to an ad hoc cohort of 306 women with similar characteristics, followed between 1976 and 2009.…”

“…2 Although these definitions have been proposed in consensus documents, 2,3 the ESC HF guidelines apply a somewhat different and more precise definition. 11 Additionally, the cases do not reflect the real BC population because the authors 13 In conclusion, cancer therapy-related CV events are widely recognized as a global issue, but it should be remembered that these cancer treatments allow patients to survive. CTox-HF is an ongoing phenomenon with a narrow therapeutic window for left ventricular dysfunction recovery and unfortunately we currently lack a global solution.…”
