Condition: Breast Neoplasms · Sponsor: Centre Paul Strauss
In the context of breast cancer, in case of an indication for chemotherapy, anthracycline-based protocols make it possible to improve the overall survival of patients most at risk. The frequency of anthracycline-related cardiac toxicities (ARCT) increases with the cumulative dose of anthracyclines administered and explains, at least in part, the increased risk of cardiovascular (CV) mortality in patient populations treated for breast cancer. The numerous indications for anthracycline-based protocols have made it possible to describe ARCT, among which heart failure with reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) remains one of the most comorbid. In addition to left ventricular dysfunction, anthracyclines have been associated with endothelial dysfunction, microvascular damage and myocardial ischemia responsible for dilated cardiomyopathy. Different approaches have attempted to better understand and prevent these ARCT. However, apart from the notion of limit cumulative doses of anthracyclines, few of them have made it possible to screen patients at risk and prevent the onset of cardiac dysfunction. The search for biological markers (Troponin I, BNP) or ultrasound markers (Longitudinal Strain) warning of subclinical cardiac damage is still struggling to assert its interest due in particular to significant inter- and intra-observer variability. Therapeutically, ACE inhibitors and beta-blockers have shown a significant improvement in the incidence rate of LVEF reduction dur…
