Article Synopsis
- - This study investigates how coronary artery calcium (CAC) scores can predict declines in heart function in patients with HER2-positive early-stage breast cancer receiving trastuzumab treatment.
- - Out of 347 enrolled patients, those with a CAC score of 1 or higher were significantly more likely to experience a decline in left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), a key measurement of heart function.
- - The results suggest that measuring CAC scores could help identify patients at higher risk for cardiac toxicity, potentially allowing for better management of treatment strategies in breast cancer therapy.
