Definition of cancer therapeutics–related cardiotoxicity
Cardiomyopathy characterized by a decrease in EF globally
Reduction of the EF ≥5% to <50% with symptoms or heart failure, or an asymptomatic reduction of the EF ≥10%
to <50%
Reversible: to within -5 % of baseline
Partially reversible: improved by ≥10 % from the nadir but remaining >-5 % below baseline
Irreversible: improved by <10 % from the nadir and remaining >-5 % below baseline
Relative percentage decrease in GLS >15% is indicative of subclinical LV dysfunction

Cardiac biomarkers for early detection and prediction oftrastuzumab and/or lapatinib-induced cardiotoxicity in patientswith HER2-positive early-stage breast cancer: a NeoALTTO sub-study (BIG 1-06)
Ponde N., Bradbury I., Lambertini M., Breast Cancer Res Treat. 2018 Apr;168(3):631-638
• Patients with HER2-positive early breast cancer received as neoadjuvant therapy oral lapatinib (1500mg), intravenous trastuzumab (4 mg/kg loading dose followed by 2 mg/kg), or lapatinib (1000 mg)plus trastuzumab (same dose as for single agent) in combination for 6 weeks, followed by anadditional 12 weeks of the assigned anti-HER2 therapy in combination with weekly paclitaxel (80mg/m2)
• NT-proBNP and TnT were tested after 2 weeks of anti-HER2 therapy (lapatinib, trastuzumab or theircombination) alone and/or after 18 weeks of anti-HER2 therapy plus weekly paclitaxel
• Result: TnT and proBNP may not be useful as early predictors of cardiac toxicityin anthracycline-naïve patients receiving trastuzumab and/or lapatinib

Early biomarkers of doxorubicin-induced heart injury in a mouse model
Varsha G. Desai, Joshua C. Kwekel, Vikrant Vijaya, Toxicology and Applied Pharmacology 281 (2014) 221–229.
• Male mice were injected intravenously with 3 mg/kg doxorubicin or saline once a week for 2, 3, 4, 6, and 8 weeks, resulting in cumulative DOX doses of 6, 9, 12, 18, and 24 mg/kg, respectively.
• A pro-apoptotic miR-34a was the only miRNA that was upregulated at all cumulative DOX doses and showed a significant dose-related response. Up-regulation of miR-34a at 6 mg/kg DOX may suggest apoptosis as an early molecular change in the hearts of DOX-treated mice.
• At 12 mg/kg DOX, up-regulation of miR-34a was associated with down-regulation of hypertrophy-related miR-150.

• miR-140-5p plays an important role in DOX-inducedcardiotoxicity by promoting myocardial oxidativestress via targeting Nrf2 and Sirt2.
• miR-140-5p may be considered as one potentialdrug target to treat DOX induced cardiotoxicity.

Circulating miR-1 as a potential biomarker of doxorubicin-inducedcardiotoxicity in breast cancer patients

➢ 56 female patients (49.9±3.3 years of age) treated with doxorubicin followed by taxanes
➢ cTnI, LVEF, and miRNAs were measured periodically
❑ An overall increase of the circulating levels of miR- 1, -133b, -146a, and -423-5p was observed during the DOX treatment
❑ No significant difference in the circulating levels of miR-133b, -146a, and -423-5p between cardiotoxicity and non-cardiotoxicity patients.
❑ miR-208a and miR-208b were considered undetected during the treatment

miR-1 was superior to cTnI for distinguishing between patients who did and did not develop cardiotoxicity
MicroRNA (miRNA) upregulation from baseline postanthracycline versus noncardiotoxic chemotherapy. Normalized miR-1, -29b, and -499 were significantly upregulated at multiple time points following the cycle anthracycline (AC; n=24), while unchanged in controls (n=9) receiving noncardiotoxic chemotherapy.

Imaging
Peak systolic global longitudinal strain(GLS) with speckle trackingechocardiography (STE) appears to be thebest measure. A 10% to 15% earlyreduction in GLS by STE during therapyappears to be the most useful parameterfor the prediction of cardiotoxicity, definedas a drop in LVEF or heart failure.

Results
Brachial FMD had good discriminative value for the
nondevelopment of cardiotoxicity, defined as the nondrop
of LVEF at 6 months
Per 1 SD (2.7%) increase in FMD, there was a 37% less
likelihood for LVEF reduction at 6 months (odds ratio: 0.63)
The change in serum levels of cardiac troponin I and N-
terminal pro–B-type natriuretic peptide levels at 3 months
were not predictive of LVEF change at 6 months

Conclusions
• Cancer patients treated with potentially cardiotoxic therapy are at high risk of developing HF and should therefore receive medical care aimed at obtaining strict control of cardiovascular risk factors.
• LVEF should be determined before and periodically during treatment for early detection of cardiac dysfunction in patients receiving potentially cardiotoxic chemotherapy
• Established biomarkers for CVD such as Troponins and Natriouretic peptides have shown controversial results for the early detection of cardiotoxicity
• The combination of biomarkers and imaging may increase the prognostic value
• Novel serum biomarkers (i.e. miRNAs) and markers of NO production may be useful predictive tools for cardiotoxicity
