アブストラクト | OBJECTIVES: To assess the occurrence of cardiotoxicity in patients with tumors receiving anthracycline-based chemotherapy, especially for sarcomas. METHODS: This study summarized the types and frequency of adverse events (AEs) for three anthracyclines from the FDA adverse event reporting system (FAERS) database. FAERS data from January 2004 to June 2022 were collected and analyzed. Disproportionality analyses, logistic regression, and descriptive analysis were used to compare the differences in cardiac disorders. A retrospective cohort study was conducted in a single center between December 2008 and May 2022. Our hospital-treated patients with bone and soft tissue sarcomas (BSTSs) with anthracycline-containing chemotherapy were analyzed. Serum markers, echocardiography, and electrocardiography have been used to evaluate cardiotoxic events. RESULTS: One hundred thousand and seventy-five AE reports were obtained for doxorubicin (ADM), epirubicin (EPI), and liposome doxorubicin (L-ADM) from the FAERS database. ADM (OR = 3.1, p < 0.001), EPI (OR = 1.5, p < 0.001), and sarcomas (OR = 1.8, p < 0.001) may increase the probability of cardiac disorders. Cardiac failure, cardiotoxicity, and cardiomyopathy were anthracyclines' top 3 frequent AEs. Among patients receiving ADM-containing therapy, those with ADM applied at doses >/=75 mg/m(2) /cycle were more likely to develop cardiac disorders than the other subgroups (OR = 3.5, p < 0.001). Patients younger than 18 are more likely to benefit from dexrazoxane prevention of cardiac failure. Six hundred and eighty-three patients with BSTSs receiving anthracycline-based chemotherapy were analyzed in our center. Patients receiving ADM-containing chemotherapy were likelier to experience abnormalities in serum troponin-T and left ventricular ejection fraction (p < 0.05). 2.0% (6/300) of patients receiving ADM-containing chemotherapy required adjustment of the chemotherapy regimen because of cardiotoxicity, whereas none were in the EPI or L-ADM groups. CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE: Among patients receiving anthracycline-containing therapy, patients with BSTSs were more likely to develop cardiac disorders than other tumors. In addition, patients with BSTSs receiving ADM chemotherapy had a higher likelihood of cardiotoxic events than those receiving EPI or L-ADM. |
