Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) are rapidly developing immunotherapy cancer drugs that have prolonged patient survival. However, ICIs-related cardiotoxicity has been recognized as a rare, but fatal, consequence. Although there has been extensive research based on different types of ICIs, these studies have not indicated whether cardiotoxicity is specific to a type of cancer. Therefore, we conducted a systematic review to analyze a variety of ICIs-related cardiotoxicity, focusing on different types of cancer. We found that the incidence of ICIs-related cardiac adverse events (CAEs) and common cardiotoxic manifestations vary with cancer type. This inspired us to explore the underlying mechanisms to formulate targeted clinical strategies for maintaining the cardiovascular health of cancer patients.

Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to assess how immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) impact left ventricular myocardial work using pressure-strain loops (PSL) in heart function.
  • Involvement included 43 patients receiving immunotherapy and 43 healthy controls, with measurements taken at three different treatment phases (before, after three cycles, and after six cycles).
  • Results showed a significant decline in specific myocardial work indices after treatment, indicating potential cardiotoxic effects from ICIs, while conventional echocardiographic parameters remained unchanged.

Background: The treatment of advanced lung cancer has been revolutionized by immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) in recent years, largely driven by programmed cell death-1 (PD-1) inhibitors. However, patients with lung cancer who are treated with PD-1 inhibitors are prone to immune-related adverse events (irAEs), especially cardiac adverse events. Noninvasive myocardial work is a novel technique used to assess left ventricular (LV) function, which can effectively predict myocardial damage.

Background: Programmed cell death protein-1 (PD-1) and programmed cell death ligand-1 (PD-L1) inhibitors have reformed the treatment landscape for various malignancies and improved prognosis of patients. However, they also lead to events that although rare may prove to be fatal.

Research Design And Methods: Data from July 2014 to June 2022 based on FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) were analyzed.

Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) is a negative regulatory factor antibody, which activates T cells to play an anti-tumor effect in immunotherapy, and can also cause immune-related adverse responses, thereby inducing a series of immune related adverse events (irAEs). Among these irAEs, although the incidence of ICIs-related myocarditis is very low, the fatality rate is significantly higher than other adverse reactions, close to 50%. Clinicians should be vigilant when applying ICIs, but the pathogenesis of ICIs-related myocarditis is still unclear.
