Atorvastatin therapy for prevention of anthracycline-induced cardiotoxicity in cancer patients: a meta-analysis

Circulation; 150 (Suppl. 1), 2024
INTRODUCTION: Cancer therapy-induced cardiac dysfunction is a significant adverse effect of chemotherapeutic agents, particularly anthracyclines (ANT). High-potency statin therapy, such as atorvastatin, appears to exert a protective effect against this condition. OBJECTIVE: We aimed to perform a meta-ana...

HLA-I and breast cancer prognosis: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Hum. immunol; 85 (6), 2024
BACKGROUND: Breast cancer (BC) is a significant global health issue, accounting for 1 in 8 cancer diagnoses worldwide. HLA class I molecules are typically expressed on the cell surface, but cancer cells can develop mechanisms to evade recognition by CTLs, including the downregulation of HLA class I expre...

Baseline expression of miRNAs in HER-2+ early breast cancer patients as a predictor of cancer therapy-related cardiac dysfunction

Int. j. cardiovasc. sci. (Impr.); 37 (suppl. 12), 2024
BACKGROUND: The classic biomarkers troponin and brain natriuretic peptide (BNP), as well as the currently available risk scores, are far from being considered ideal for predicting cancer therapy-related cardiac dysfunction (CTRCD). MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are promising biomarkers for better identification of ...

Arq. bras. cardiol; 121 (9 supl.1), 2024
Breast Cancer (BC) is one of the most common cancers diagnosed in population femmale and it has several subtypes, one of them being theexpressing human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 positive (HER2 +), one of the treatments for HER2+ breast cancer consists of chemotherapy plus trastuzumab deruxtecan....

Cardio-protective effects of statins in patients with breast cancer undergoing anthracycline-based chemotherapy: a metaanalysis of randomized controlled trials

Arq. bras. cardiol; 121 (9 supl.1), 2024
BACKGROUND: Contemporary understanding characterizes cardiotoxicity as a reduction in left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) by at least 10%, resulting in a final value below 53% in successive assessments. Nevertheless, breast cancer therapy can impact the cardiovascular system through various avenues...

Impact of statin therapy on mortality and recurrence in female breast cancer: a meta-analysis

Ann. oncol; 35 (Suppl. 2), 2024
BACKGROUND Breast cancer (BC) incidence is estimated to achieve over 3 million new cases and 1 million deaths by 2040. Beyond its physical toll, breast cancer detrimentally affects quality of life, imposing emotional, social, and financial burdens on patients and their families. Statins, commonly prescri...
