Cardiotoxicity of immune checkpoint inhibitors
Cardiac toxicity after conventional antineoplastic drugs (eg, anthracyclines) has historically been a relevant issue. In addition, targeted therapies and biological molecules can also induce cardiotoxicity. Immune checkpoint inhibitors are a novel class of anticancer drugs, distinct from targeted or tumour type-specific therapies. Cancer immunotherapy with immune checkpoint blockers (ie, monocl...
متن کاملNonpharmacologic management of cardiac arrest and cardiogenic shock.
P harmacologic management of patients with cardiac arrest or cardiogenic shock may be insuI cient in restoring adequate circulatory support. This has led physicians to investigate and develop more aggressive interventions for these problems. Cardiogenic shock most frequently occurs in the following clinical settings: (1) acute myocardial infarction; (2) postcardiotomy; (3) an acute exacerbation...
متن کاملCardiogenic shock caused by disulfiram.
Drug intoxication with disulfiram is a rare condition that may lead to severe and potentially fatal cardiovascular manifestations such as cardiogenic shock. We report the case of a female patient with refractory shock after deliberate self-poisoning with disulfiram. Clinical, biochemical and echocardiographic assessment, as well as invasive monitoring confirmed cardiogenic shock associated with...
متن کاملEndocrine side effects induced by immune checkpoint inhibitors.
CONTEXT In recent years, progress has been made in cancer immunotherapy by the development of drugs acting as modulators of immune checkpoint proteins, such as the cytotoxic T-lymphocyte antigen-4 (CTLA4) and programmed death-1 (PD-1), two co-inhibitory receptors that are expressed on T cells upon activation. These molecules play crucial roles in maintaining immune homeostasis by down-regulatin...
متن کاملProgrammed death 1 immune checkpoint inhibitors.
Programmed death 1 (PD-1) is an immune checkpoint that provides inhibitory signals to the immune system in order to modulate the activity of T cells in peripheral tissues and maintain self-tolerance in the setting of infection and inflammation. In cancer, the immune checkpoints are exploited so that the tumor cells are able to evade the immune system. Immune checkpoint inhibitors are a type of ...
