Trial summary

The early detection of BVZ or Sunitinib mediated cardiotoxicity using cardiac biomarkers and novel Transthoracic Echocardiogram (TTE) techniques may allow one to adjust treatment and/or administer prophylactic cardioprotective agents, prior to the development of irreversible cardiac dysfunction.

About this study

Official title: Early Detection of Broken Hearts in Cancer Patients: Bevacizumab, Sunitinib and Heart Failure

The early detection of BVZ or Sunitinib mediated cardiotoxicity using cardiac biomarkers and novel Transthoracic Echocardiogram (TTE) techniques may allow one to adjust treatment and/or administer prophylactic cardioprotective agents, prior to the development of irreversible cardiac dysfunction. We hypothesize that cardiac biomarkers, TVI/strain-derived indices will be able to accurately detect subtle cardiac injury at a time when conventional Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction (LVEF) remains normal in BVZ or Sunitinib mediated cardiotoxicity. Additionally, we hypothesize that Endothelial Function Test (EndoPAT) testing can detect early BVZ or Sunitinib mediated endothelial dysfunction.

Read the detailed description

A total of 100 individuals (50 receiving BVZ and 50 receiving Sunitinib) will be prospectively enrolled . (80 at Mayo Clinic [80 receiving BVZ, Sunitinib ,or Pazopanib] and 20 at St. Boniface General Hospital (SBGH)). Patients receiving either BVZ 5mg/kg iv ,Sunitinib 50 mg po daily, or Pazopanib for advanced Metastatic carcinoma will be screened for potential eligibility in the study. For metastatic renal cancer treatments, Sunitinib doses are (oral) 50 mg once a day for 4 weeks followed by a two week off period. The six week cycle is then repeated. In case of toxicities observed with the dose, a 25% reduction in the daily dose during the "on" period is performed (37.5 mg). Patients will be studied at 7 time points: i) Baseline; ii) Day 1; iii) Day 5; iv) 4-6 weeks ; v) 3 months; vi) 6 months after the initiation of both drugs (BVZ and Sunitinib) ; and vii) 12 months after the initiation of BVZ drug only (Figure 1). Three visits (baseline, 4-6 weeks , and 3 months) are considered part of standard clinical care, and four visits are for research. At each visit, in addition to standard of care provided by the Oncologist, blood will be drawn to measure high sensitivity troponin-T (hsTnT) and Natriuretic-proBNP. The patients will also undergo a TTE with tissue velocity imaging (TVI), strain and left ventricular opacification (LVO) and myocardial perfusion at each time point. EndoPAT test will also be performed at baseline, and 3 months. The baseline, 4-6 weeks, and 3 month visits will be part of your standard clinical care and followup.

Cancer GroupAll subjects with cancer who will be treated with anyone of the following chemotherapy drugs; Pazopanib, Sutent or Bevacizumab

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Number of participants with changes in Tissue velocity imaging (TVI), myocardial deformation indices (Strain, strain rate, twist and torsion), and diastolic function indices (Mitral Valve Pulsed Wave Doppler, Tissue Doppler Imaging, Left Atrial volumes)

    Measured: Baseline to 2 years

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Number of participants with changes in quantitative myocardial perfusion parameters including myocardial blood flow velocity and myocardial blood flow derived from contrast perfusion echocardiography

    Measured: Baseline to 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cardiotoxicity, run by Mayo Clinic at 2 sites in 2 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Jan 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in United States, Canada. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of participants with changes in Tissue velocity imaging (TVI), myocardial deformation indices (Strain, strain rate, twist and torsion), and diastolic function indices (Mitral Valve Pulsed Wave Doppler, Tissue Doppler Imaging, Left Atrial volumes) (time frame: Baseline to 2 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 29 Jan 2016.
