Cardiovascular effects of systemic cancer treatment
چکیده انگلیسی

Many methods of systemic anticancer treatment have detrimental effects on the cardiovascular system, thus limiting the possibility of further therapy, worsening patients’ quality of life and increasing mortality. The best recognized and most clinically relevant is the cardiotoxicity of anthracyclines. Other cytotoxic drugs associated with significant risk of cardiovascular complications include alkylating agents, 5-fluorouracil and paclitaxel. Cardiovascular adverse effects are also associated with the use of targeted therapies, such as trastuzumab, bevacizumab and tyrosine kinase inhibitors, and some of the drugs used in the treatment of hematological malignancies, such as all-trans-retinoic acid and arsenic trioxide.The most serious cardiac complication of anticancer therapy is congestive heart failure, associated predominantly with the use of anthracyclines, trastuzumab and high-dose cyclophosphamide. Myocardial ischemia is mainly caused by antimetabolite and interferon alpha treatment. Other adverse effects may include hypotension, hypertension, arrhythmias and conduction disorders, edema, pericarditis and thrombo-embolic complications.The aim of this review is to summarize and critically analyze the available evidence on the cardiovascular toxicity of systemic anticancer therapies, with particular attention to the recently recognized adverse effects of targeted therapies.
