What is Cardio- oncology? PubMed Chemotherapy Cardiotoxicity
Case study: Anti-VEGF therapy 60 y/o F, with HTN and DM, presents with metastatic renal cell cancer that led to L nephrectomy, radiation to pelvis and ribs, lung nodules (probable metastatic dz), and resection of R femur tumor with a femoral nail placed, who was started on sunitinib 2 months ago. MEDS: triamterene, losartan, sunitininb 37.5 mg, Zofran PE: BP 168/92, P88, wt 178#, R16 No JVD, lungs clear, loud S4, trace ankle edema Labs: Cr 1.1, TC 227, LDL 129, HDL 31, BNP 18, LVEF 55 with mild LVH 5 weeks after starting sunitinib she developed BP 216/112 and had therapy stopped

In Renal Cell Cancer, renin-angiotensin inhibitors are critical therapies R McKay et al, Clin Cancer Res. 2015 Jun 1; 21(11): 2471 2479.
RAS inhibitors seem to be very important R McKay et al, Clin Cancer Res. 2015 Jun 1; 21(11): 2471 2479.

So what happened with our patient? Control BP with what meds? stopped triamterene, continued losartan 50mg qd, used furosemide for edema, started carvedilol 25mg bid, amlodipine 10mg daily used hydralazine intermittently How do we follow this patient going forward? periodic BNP, rarely EF measured only for dyspnea Any other general recs? sodium restriction, exercise, lipid therapy, aspirin She has had no disease progression for almost 6 years!! and can walk ½ mile without stopping.
Case study: does cardiotoxicity mean the drug has to stop? 74 y/o F, with Multiple Myeloma initially in 2013 treated with velcade, adriamycin and decadron as well as s/p stem cell txp 2004, has relapsed disease. She was started on carfilzomib, pomalyst and decadron 12/2014. Prior hx of DM, HTN but told she had no cardiac problems On atenolol 50mg qd, Lisinopril 20mg qd, no aspirin or statin After 2 cycles of treatment developed NYHA class 3-4 symptoms Hematologist stopped therapy and was not going to treat further
PROTECT Study Design PROTECT is a prospective, non-randomized, open-label, supportive care, multiinstitutional study. 130 patients will be enrolled, who will be initiated with either (1) Bortezomibbased (BOR) or (2) Carfilzomib-based (CAR) therapy based on the hematologist s decision. Enrolled and initially treated with Bortezomib- based chemotherapy (N=65) 6 cycles of chemotherapy Patient with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma screened for eligibility Enrolled and initially treated with Carfilzomib- based chemotherapy (N=65) 6 cycles of chemotherapy Sites: Vanderbilt University Medical Center University of Pennsylvania (UPenn) *Dana Farber at Harvard *University of Alabama *pending Ongoing monitoring for outcomes Ongoing monitoring for outcomes

What happened with our second pa>ent? She was placed on spironolactone, Lasix, carvedilol, aspirin, crestor and Lisinopril. She walks daily, without symptoms of HF, and is in remission nearly 3 years later

Can we identify training requirements? What is Cardio-Oncology? It is a clinically-based discipline focused on the cardiovascular health of cancer patients and cancer survivors Who is a cardio-oncologist? A health care provider who is focused on the prevention, early detection, management, and recovery of cardiovascular function potentially resulting from cancer therapies.
