Abstract
Serum biomarkers represent a reproducible, sensitive, minimally invasive and inexpensive method to explore possible adverse cardiovascular effects of antineoplastic treatments. They are useful tools in risk stratification, the early detection of cardiotoxicity and the follow-up and prognostic assessment of cancer patients. In this literature review, we aim at describing the current state of knowledge on the meaning and the usefulness of cardiovascular biomarkers in patients with cancer; analyzing the intricate relationship between cancer and cardiovascular disease (especially HF) and how this affects cardiovascular and tumor biomarkers; exploring the role of cardiovascular biomarkers in the risk stratification and in the identification of chemotherapy-induced cardiotoxicity; and providing a summary of the novel potential biomarkers in this clinical setting.

Abstract
Background: Metabolic reprogramming is an important hallmark of cancer. Glycolysis provides the conditions on which multiple myeloma (MM) thrives. Due to MM's great heterogeneity and incurability, risk assessment and treatment choices are still difficult. Method: We constructed a glycolysis-related prognostic model by Least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) Cox regression analysis. It was validated in two independent external cohorts, cell lines, and our clinical specimens. The model was also explored for its biological properties, immune microenvironment, and therapeutic response including immunotherapy. Finally, multiple metrics were combined to construct a nomogram to assist in personalized prediction of survival outcomes. Results: A wide range of variants and heterogeneous expression profiles of glycolysis-related genes were observed in MM. The prognostic model behaved well in differentiating between populations with various prognoses and proved to be an independent prognostic factor. This prognostic signature closely coordinated with multiple malignant features such as high-risk clinical features, immune dysfunction, stem cell-like features, cancer-related pathways, which was associated with the survival outcomes of MM. In terms of treatment, the high-risk group showed resistance to conventional drugs such as bortezomib, doxorubicin and immunotherapy. The joint scores generated by the nomogram showed higher clinical benefit than other clinical indicators. The in vitro experiments with cell lines and clinical subjects further provided convincing evidence for our study. Conclusion: We developed and validated the utility of the MM glycolysis-related prognostic model, which provides a new direction for prognosis assessment, treatment options for MM patients.

Abstract
Improvements in the treatment of childhood cancer have considerably enhanced survival rates over the last decades to over 80% as of today. However, this great achievement has been accompanied by the occurrence of several early and long-term treatment-related complications major of which is cardiotoxicity. This article reviews the contemporary definition of cardiotoxicity, older and newer chemotherapeutic agents that are mainly involved in cardiotoxicity, routine process diagnoses, and methods using omics technology for early and preventive diagnosis. Chemotherapeutic agents and radiation therapies have been implicated as a cause of cardiotoxicity. In response, the area of cardio-oncology has developed into a crucial element of oncologic patient care, committed to the early diagnosis and treatment of adverse cardiac events. However, routine diagnosis and the monitoring of cardiotoxicity rely on electrocardiography and echocardiography. For the early detection of cardiotoxicity, in recent years, major studies have been conducted using biomarkers such as troponin, N-terminal pro b-natriuretic peptide, etc. Despite the refinements in diagnostics, severe limitations still exist due to the increase in the above-mentioned biomarkers only after significant cardiac damage has occurred. Lately, the research has expanded by introducing new technologies and finding new markers using the omics approach. These new markers could be used not only for early detection but also for the early prevention of cardiotoxicity. Omics science, which includes genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics, offers new opportunities for biomarker discovery in cardiotoxicity and may provide an understanding of the mechanisms of cardiotoxicity beyond traditional technologies.

Abstract
With the continuous improvement in survival of cancer patients, including those with multiple myeloma, related to the novel treatment agents and therapeutic approaches, the probability for patients to develop cardiovascular disease has significantly increased, especially in elderly patients and those with additional risk factors. Multiple myeloma is indeed a disease of the elderly population and so these patients are, solely by age, at an increased risk of cardiovascular disease. Risk factors for these events can be patient-, disease- and/or therapy-related, and they have been shown to adversely impact survival. Cardiovascular events affect around 7.5% of patients with multiple myeloma and the risk for different toxicities has considerably varied across trials depending on patients' characteristics and treatment utilized. High grade cardiac toxicity has been reported with immunomodulatory drugs (odds ratio [OR] around 2), proteasome inhibitors (OR 1.67-2.68 depending on the specific agent, and generally higher with carfilzomib), as well as other agents. Cardiac arrhythmias have also been reported with various therapies and drug interaction plays a significant role in that setting. Comprehensive cardiac evaluation before, during and after various anti-myeloma therapy is recommended and the incorporation of surveillance strategies allows early detection and management resulting in improved outcomes of these patients. Multidisciplinary interaction including hematologists and cardio-oncologists is critical for optimal patient care.

Development and characterization of three cell culture systems to investigate the relationship between primary bone marrow adipocytes and myeloma cells. Front Oncol 2023; 12:912834.

Abstract
The unique properties of the bone marrow (BM) allow for migration and proliferation of multiple myeloma (MM) cells while also providing the perfect environment for development of quiescent, drug-resistant MM cell clones. BM adipocytes (BMAds) have recently been identified as important contributors to systemic adipokine levels, bone strength, hematopoiesis, and progression of metastatic and primary BM cancers, such as MM. Recent studies in myeloma suggest that BMAds can be reprogrammed by tumor cells to contribute to myeloma-induced bone disease, and, reciprocally, BMAds support MM cells in vitro. Importantly, most data investigating BMAds have been generated using adipocytes generated by differentiating BM-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (BMSCs) into adipocytes in vitro using adipogenic media, due to the extreme technical challenges associated with isolating and culturing primary adipocytes. However, if studies could be performed with primary adipocytes, then they likely will recapitulate in vivo biology better than BMSC-derived adipocytes, as the differentiation process is artificial and differs from in vivo differentiation, and progenitor cell(s) of the primary BMAd (pBMAds) may not be the same as the BMSCs precursors used for adipogenic differentiation in vitro. Therefore, we developed and refined three methods for culturing pBMAds: two-dimensional (2D) coverslips, 2D transwells, and three-dimensional (3D) silk scaffolds, all of which can be cultured alone or with MM cells to investigate bidirectional tumor-host signaling. To develop an in vitro model with a tissue-like structure to mimic the BM microenvironment, we developed the first 3D, tissue engineered model utilizing pBMAds derived from human BM. We found that pBMAds, which are extremely fragile, can be isolated and stably cultured in 2D for 10 days and in 3D for up to 4 week in vitro. To investigate the relationship between pBMAds and myeloma, MM cells can be added to investigate physical relationships through confocal imaging and soluble signaling molecules via mass spectrometry. In summary, we developed three in vitro cell culture systems to study pBMAds and myeloma cells, which could be adapted to investigate many diseases and biological processes involving the BM, including other bone-homing tumor types.

An Untargeted Metabolomics Approach on Carfilzomib-Induced Nephrotoxicity. MOLECULES (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2022; 27:molecules27227929. [PMID: 36432029 PMCID: PMC9697636 DOI: 10.3390/molecules27227929] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/25/2022] [Revised: 11/14/2022] [Accepted: 11/15/2022] [Indexed: 11/19/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Carfilzomib (Cfz) is an anti-cancer drug related to cardiorenal adverse events, with cardiovascular and renal complications limiting its clinical use. Despite the important progress concerning the discovery of the underlying causes of Cfz-induced nephrotoxicity, the molecular/biochemical background is still not well clarified. Furthermore, the number of metabolomics-based studies concerning Cfz-induced nephrotoxicity is limited. METHODS A metabolomics UPLC-HRMS-DIA methodology was applied to three bio-sample types i.e., plasma, kidney, and urine, obtained from two groups of mice, namely (i) Cfz (8 mg Cfz/ kg) and (ii) Control (0.9% NaCl) (n = 6 per group). Statistical analysis, involving univariate and multivariate tools, was applied for biomarker detection. Furthermore, a sub-study was developed, aiming to estimate metabolites' correlation among bio-samples, and to enlighten potential mechanisms. RESULTS Cfz mostly affects the kidneys and urine metabolome. Fifty-four statistically important metabolites were discovered, and some of them have already been related to renal diseases. Furthermore, the correlations between bio-samples revealed patterns of metabolome alterations due to Cfz. CONCLUSIONS Cfz causes metabolite retention in kidney and dysregulates (up and down) several metabolites associated with the occurrence of inflammation and oxidative stress.

Abstract
Simple Summary The management of cardiovascular adverse events in patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma undergoing treatment with carfilzomib can be challenging. Herein, we evaluated the potential cardioprotective effect of daratumumab when administered in combination with carfilzomib and dexamethasone (DaraKd). The study included 25 patients receiving either DaraKd (n = 14) or Kd (n = 11) who were evaluated for echocardiographic changes at the sixth cycle of treatment compared with baseline assessment. DaraKd was associated with preserved post-treatment cardiac systolic function compared with Kd. CD38 inhibition by daratumumab might restore metabolic disequilibrium in the cardiac tissue and prevent cardiac injury. A trend for a lower rate of cardiovascular adverse events among patients receiving DaraKd was also evident, although larger studies are needed to determine the association between echocardiographic and/or biomarker changes with cardiovascular adverse events. Abstract Carfilzomib has improved survival in patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM), but it may exert cardiovascular adverse events (CVAEs). The aim of this study was to assess whether treatment with daratumumab may ameliorate carfilzomib-related toxicity. We prospectively evaluated 25 patients with RRMM who received either daratumumab in combination with carfilzomib and dexamethasone (DaraKd) (n = 14) or Kd (n = 11). Cardiac ultrasound was performed before treatment initiation and C6D16 or at the time of treatment interruption. Patients were followed for a median of 10 months for CVAEs. The mean (± SD) age was 67.8 ± 7.6 years and 60% were men. The two treatment groups did not significantly differ in baseline demographic characteristics (p > 0.1 for all). In the DaraKd group, we did not observe any significant change in markers of ventricular systolic function. However, these markers deteriorated in the Kd group; left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction, LV global longitudinal strain, tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion and RV free wall longitudinal strain significantly decreased from baseline to second visit (p < 0.05). A significant group interaction (p < 0.05) was observed for the abovementioned changes. CVAEs occurred more frequently in the Kd than the DaraKd group (45% vs. 28.6%). DaraKd was associated with preserved post-treatment cardiac systolic function and lower CVAE rate compared with Kd. The clinical significance and the underlying mechanisms merit further investigation.
