Abstract
Many oncology drugs have been found to induce cardiotoxicity in a subset of patients, which significantly limits their clinical use and impedes the benefit of lifesaving anticancer treatments. Human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (iPSC-CMs) carry donor-specific genetic information and have been proposed for exploring the interindividual difference in oncology drug-induced cardiotoxicity. Herein, we evaluated the inter- and intraindividual variability of iPSC-CM-related assays and presented a proof of concept to prospectively predict doxorubicin (DOX)-induced cardiotoxicity (DIC) using donor-specific iPSC-CMs. Our findings demonstrated that donor-specific iPSC-CMs exhibited greater line-to-line variability than the intraindividual variability in impedance cytotoxicity and transcriptome assays. The variable and dose-dependent cytotoxic responses of iPSC-CMs resembled those observed in clinical practice and largely replicated the reported mechanisms. By categorizing iPSC-CMs into resistant and sensitive cell lines based on their time- and concentration-related phenotypic responses to DOX, we found that the sensitivity of donor-specific iPSC-CMs to DOX may predict in vivo DIC risk. Furthermore, we identified a differentially expressed gene, DND microRNA-mediated repression inhibitor 1 (DND1), between the DOX-resistant and DOX-sensitive iPSC-CMs. Our results support the utilization of donor-specific iPSC-CMs in assessing interindividual differences in DIC. Further studies will encompass a large panel of donor-specific iPSC-CMs to identify potential novel molecular and genetic biomarkers for predicting DOX and other oncology drug-induced cardiotoxicity.

Jang B, Jeong J, Heo KN, Koh Y, Lee JY. Real-world incidence and risk factors of bortezomib-related cardiovascular adverse events in patients with multiple myeloma. Blood Res 2024; 59:3. [PMID: 38485811 PMCID: PMC10903519 DOI: 10.1007/s44313-024-00004-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/17/2023] [Accepted: 01/11/2024] [Indexed: 03/18/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Although most studies on the cardiovascular toxicity of proteasome inhibitors have focused on carfilzomib, the risk of cardiotoxicity associated with bortezomib remains controversial. This study aimed to evaluate the incidence and risk factors of cardiovascular adverse events (CVAEs) associated with bortezomib in patients with multiple myeloma in a real-world setting. METHODS This cross-sectional study included patients who were treated with bortezomib at a tertiary hospital in South Korea. CVAEs, defined as hypertension, arrhythmia, heart failure, myocardial infarction, pulmonary arterial hypertension, angina, and venous thromboembolism, were detected using cardiac markers, ECG, echocardiography, medications, or documentation by clinicians. The patients were observed for at least 6 months and up to 2 years after starting bortezomib administration. RESULTS Among the 395 patients, 20.8% experienced CVAEs of any grade, and 14.7% experienced severe adverse events. The median onset time for any CVAE was 101.5 days (IQR, 42-182 days), and new-onset/worsened hypertension was the most prevalent CVAE. The risk of CVAEs increased in patients with a body mass index lower than 18.5 (adjusted HR (aHR) 3.50, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.05-11.72), light chain (1.80, 1.04-3.13), and IgD (4.63, 1.06-20.20) as the multiple myeloma subtype, baseline stroke (4.52, 1.59-12.80), and hypertension (1.99, 1.23-3.23). However, CVAEs did not significantly affect the 2-year overall survival and progression-free survival. CONCLUSION Approximately 15% of the Korean patients treated with bortezomib experienced severe CVAEs. Thus, patients, especially those with identified risk factors, should be closely monitored for CVAE symptoms during bortezomib treatment.

Abstract
Immune-checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), a unique antibody-based therapeutic strategy, have revolutionized the treatment landscape of solid and hematological cancers. Despite the proven benefits of ICIs, the cardiotoxicity from unspecific immune activation (uncommon but potentially fatal) is a continuing concern. Accumulating preclinical research has demonstrated that ICIs initiate inflammation in the myocardium, while clinically significant cardiotoxicity were reported in few patients receiving ICI therapy, probably due to the low incidence and unspecific symptoms. The subtle signs and symptoms (e.g., chest pain, dizziness, and dyspnea) were likely attributed to cancer and/or non-cardiac events by previous studies, thus limiting the understanding of the incidence, outcomes, risk factors, and management of ICI-related cardiotoxicity. The heterogeneous clinical presentation and complex diagnostic procedure further make it challenging to accurately identify ICI-related cardiac events in clinical trials. Therefore, ICI-related cardiotoxicity, whose incidence is probably underestimated, has not been well recognized. In this article, we provide an overview of potential mechanisms underlying ICI-related cardiotoxicity and review accumulating clinical evidence of ICI-related cardiotoxicity, with a focus on myocarditis. Moreover, we discuss possible strategies to manage ICI-related cardiotoxicity and highlight the importance of developing cardio-oncology.
