description | Abstract Cardiotoxic manifestation associated with breast cancer treatment by anthracycline regimen increases patients’ susceptibility to myocardial injury, reduction in left ventricular ejection fraction and complications associated with heart failure. There is currently no standardized, minimally invasive, cost effective and clinically verified procedure to monitor cardiotoxicity post-anthracycline therapy initiation, and to detect early onset of irreversible cardiovascular complications. This study aims to create a panel of novel biomarkers and circulating miRNAs associated with cardiotoxicity, further assessing their correlation with cardiac injury specific markers, troponin I and T, and demonstrate the development of cardiac dysfunction in breast cancer patients. Blood obtained from West Virginian females clinically diagnosed with breast cancer and receiving anthracyclines showed upregulated level of biomarkers and circulating miRNAs after 3 and 6 months of chemotherapy initiation with increased levels of cardiac troponin I and T. These biomarkers and miRNAs significantly correlated with elevated troponins. Following 6 months of anthracycline-regimens, 23% of the patient population showed cardiotoxicity with reduced left ventricular ejection fraction. Our results support the clinical application of plasma biomarkers and circulating miRNAs to develop a panel for early diagnosis of chemotherapy related cardiac dysfunction which will enable early detection of disease progression and management of irreversible cardiac damage. |
