Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Patients With Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma or Hodgkin Lymphoma Receiving Doxorubicin

October 10, 2023 updated by: University of Nebraska

Cardiac MRI for Assessment of Cardiac Structure and Function Following Doxorubicin Based Chemotherapy for Newly Diagnosed Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma or Hodgkin's Lymphoma

RATIONALE: Diagnostic procedures, such as cardiac magnetic resonance imaging, may help doctors detect early changes in the heart caused by chemotherapy.

PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying how well cardiac magnetic resonance imaging works in patients with newly diagnosed non-Hodgkin lymphoma or Hodgkin lymphoma receiving doxorubicin.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

OBJECTIVES:

  • To determine whether early myocardial structural and functional changes can be detected using cardiac MRI in patients with newly diagnosed non-Hodgkin lymphoma or Hodgkin lymphoma receiving doxorubicin hydrochloride-based chemotherapy.

OUTLINE: Patients undergo cardiac MRI with gadolinium contrast prior to initiation of doxorubicin hydrochloride-based chemotherapy and 3 months after completion of six courses of chemotherapy for non-Hodgkin lymphoma and twelve courses of chemotherapy for Hodgkin lymphoma.

Observational
Only had observational arm
Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (cMRI) offers the unique advantage of being able to analyze both function and structure (myocardial changes in the form of both a functional decrease in ejection fraction and structural changes within the myocardium defined as delayed contrast uptake). Participants will have already received doxorubicin hydrochloride as standard therapy when undergoing chemotherapy for non-Hogdkin's lymphoma and Hogdkin's lymphoma.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction (LVEF) and Global Strain Decrease After Doxorubicin Chemotherapy
Time Frame: cMRI will be done prior to induction of doxorubicin based chemotherapy and at three months after completion of the doxorubicin based chemotherapy regimen.

A reduction of 10% in left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) between the two cMRI studies was considered a subclinical functional event. New or progressive myocardial delayed enhancement within ≥1 segment was deemed as a subclinical structural event. Global left ventricle (LV) radial, circumferential, and longitudinal strain data for each patient were compared between cMRI-1 and cMRI-2.

The study had a fixed endpoint (3 months post-treatment)

cMRI will be done prior to induction of doxorubicin based chemotherapy and at three months after completion of the doxorubicin based chemotherapy regimen.
