Clonal Hematopoiesis as a Molecular Risk Factor for Doxorubicin-Induced Cardiotoxicity: A Proof-of-Concept Study
1 Sept 2023
Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: The main dose-limiting toxicity of anthracyclines is cardiotoxicity. Clonal hematopoiesis (CH), somatic mutations in hematopoietic stem or progenitor cells in patients without hematologic malignancy, is also associated with risk for adverse cardiovascular events and worse outcomes overall. We hypothesize that CH increases risk for doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity (DIC). METHODS: We conducted a...
