Mashup Score: 3Cardio-oncology Drug Interactions - 2 month(s) ago
Cardio-oncology is an emerging multidisciplinary field intended to mitigate and manage cardiovascular side effects and risks associated with cancer therapies. Clinician awareness of drug interaction management among cancer treatments, cardiovascular medications, and supportive care agents is important for optimizing efficacy and safety. Historically, chemotherapies have been associated with pharmacodynamic interactions with few, but important, pharmacokinetic interactions. The advent of oral targeted inhibitors has introduced more complex pharmacokinetic interactions, especially via cytochrome P450 pathways. Given the accelerated development of oncology therapies, clinicians need to be familiar with reviewing multiple sources for interaction information as well as adjusting and monitoring regimens when contending with drug interaction challenges.

Mashup Score: 6Cardio-Oncology Program Building - 2 month(s) ago
The organization of a cardio-oncology clinic and overall program is designed to provide comprehensive cardiovascular care to patients who are at risk of or have developed cardiovascular sequelae during or following cancer treatments. In this article, we summarize the core components of a contemporary cardio-oncology program, including its core members (cardiologists, oncologists, clinical pharmacists, advanced practice providers, nurses, and coordinators), key services (risk assessment, treatment planning, cardiac imaging, intervention, and management), and practical integration within the health care system.

Mashup Score: 15Cardiac Complications of Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors and Chimeric Antigen Receptor T Cell Therapy - 2 month(s) ago
Immune checkpoint inhibitors and chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy have revolutionized cancer treatment but can cause life-threatening cardiovascular toxicities through immune-related adverse events. Myocarditis is the most common and potentially fatal toxicity with immune checkpoint inhibitors. T-cell therapies can potentially lead to cytokine release syndrome. Diagnosis of ICI-myocarditis requires a multimodal approach, including biomarkers, imaging, and endomyocardial biopsy, while CRS is characterized by a clinical syndrome resembling distributive shock. Management involves discontinuing the offending therapy, immunosuppression with corticosteroids for ICI-myocarditis, and interleukin-6 antagonists for CRS. Collaboration between oncologists and cardiologists is crucial for early recognition and prompt treatment.

Mashup Score: 4Cardiotoxicity of Anthracyclines - 2 month(s) ago
Anthracycline chemotherapy is associated with cardiotoxicity, predominantly manifesting as left ventricular systolic dysfunction within the first year of treatment. Early detection is possible through biomarkers and cardiovascular imaging before clinical symptoms develop. Comprehensive cardiovascular risk assessment is essential for all patients prior to anthracycline therapy to stratify their risk of cardiotoxicity. Preventive measures, including cardiovascular risk optimization, as well as anthracycline dose adjustments, the use of liposomal anthracyclines, and dexrazoxane in high-risk patients, are crucial to mitigate the risk of cardiotoxicity. Long-term follow-up and cardiovascular risk optimization are critical for cancer survivors to optimize cardiovascular outcomes.
