Strategy Therapy on Cancer Therapy-Related Cardiac Dysfunction

June 6, 2023 updated by: Ping-Yen Liu, National Cheng-Kung University Hospital

Strategy Therapy on Early Phase Cancer Therapeutics-Related Cardiac Dysfunction Patients

The investigators use the cancer registration system of National Cheng Kung University Hospital to timely screen and evaluate those patients having breast cancer or lymphoma to enroll patients to participate in this clinical trial. The investigators planned an earlier initiation of Sacubitril/Valsartan treatment on breast cancer and lymphoma patients before the chemotherapy, and starting therapeutic intervention by Sacubitril/Valsartan once the heart damage sign appeared via novel echocardiography. The investigators aim to assess the protective and therapeutic benefit of cardioprotective drugs on the cardiotoxicity of anti-cancer therapy.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

The investigators use the cancer registration system of National Cheng Kung University Hospital to timely screen and evaluate those patients having breast cancer or lymphoma to enroll patients to participate in this clinical trial. Also, the Patient Recruitment System support to complete the patients' database. The investigators cooperate with other hospitals in South Taiwan to carry on an early phase clinical trial, named "Strategy by novel anti-heart failure therapy on early phase Cancer Therapeutics-Related Cardiac Dysfunction (CTRCD) patients" focusing on the either preventive strategy to earlier initiation of Sacubitril/Valsartan treatment on breast cancer and lymphoma patients before the chemotherapy, and starting therapeutic intervention by Sacubitril/Valsartan once the heart damage sign appeared via novel echocardiography, and collect clinical and genetic information from the enrolled patients. These patients randomized into 2 groups: cardioprotective drug vs. placebo. The regular assessment of cardiac function is as following: baseline (prior to anti-cancer treatment) and every 3 months. Thereafter. The investigators aim to assess the protective and/or therapeutic benefit of cardioprotective drugs on the cardiotoxicity of anti-cancer therapy.

Enrollment (Estimated)

Enrollment

The number of participants in a clinical study. The "anticipated" enrollment is the target number of participants that the researchers need for the study.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

  • Adult
  • Older Adult

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Description

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change in absolute global longitudinal strain value measured by left ventricular global peak systolic longitudinal strain
Time Frame: 1 year
Left ventricular global peak systolic longitudinal strain by cardiac echo
1 year

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
