Association of Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor Therapy for Cancer With Early Myocardial Tissue and Biomarker Changes During Treatment - Implication for Risk of Myocarditis and Cardiomyopathy

Status: Recruiting
Location: See location...
Study Type: Observational
SUMMARY

Patients undergoing dual treatment with Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) for various cancers, e.g. melanoma, are at increased risk of developing myocarditis and cardiomyopathy. Currently, only limited data on serial myocardial tissue changes during treatment and whether they predict outcomes are available. Cardiac MRI (CMR) is the reference standard for non-invasive myocardial volumes/function analysis and uniquely characterizes myocardial tissue. Therefore, it may help detect myocardial tissue changes during treatment and help early treatment and prevent adverse cardiac outcomes.
