Cardiotoxicities of Non-Chemotherapeutic Metastatic Breast Cancer Treatments.

This article emphasizes human epidermal growth factor receptor targeted therapies with a focus on incidence of cardiotoxicity, reversibility, long-term outcomes, and management in high-risk patients. This review will address the use of cardiac biomarkers to monitor for toxicity, as well as the utility of cardiac imaging, including global longitudinal strain as a prognostic factor. We will also include recent findings on tyrosine kinase inhibitors, cyclin dependent kinase 4/6, and immune checkpoint inhibitors. Cardiotoxicity may lead to premature discontinuation of novel cancer therapies; optimizing cardiovascular risk factors and close monitoring for cardiotoxicity allow patients to maximize their oncologic and cardiovascular outcomes.
