This phenomenon was first observed with trastuzumab, a monoclonal antibody that targe...

Cardio-Oncology: mechanisms of cardiovascular toxicity

The therapeutic options available to treat a wide range of malignancies are rapidly increasing. At the same time, the population being treated is aging with more cardiovascular risk factors, comorbid conditions, and associated poor cardiac reserve. Both traditional chemotherapeutic agents (for example, anthracyclines) and newer therapies (for example, targeted tyrosine kinase inhibitors and imm...

Accordingly, there is a rapidly growing need for a comprehensive and proficient management of patients in whom the two co-mo...
