Early cardiotoxicity of the CHOP regimen in aggressivenon-Hodgkin’s lymphoma

Abstract: Early clinical and subclinical cardiotoxicity was frequent in patients receiving the CHOP regimen. The threshold of the cumulative dose of doxorubicin appeared to be low: at doses >200 mg/m(2), 27% of patients had cardiac events. Elderly patients appeared to be at higher risk. The development of cardioprotective strategies or alternative treatments are mandatory for aggressive NHL patients.

“…Although there were no instances of symptomatic cardiac failure, 3 of the 6 study participants experienced asymptomatic decreases in LVEF. 30 A similar onset threshold for doxorubicin dose (200 mg/m 2 ) was observed in a multivariate analysis of the relationship between CHOP and cardiotoxicity in patients with aggressive NHL. 31 The exact mechanisms underlying doxorubicin-and bevacizumab-induced cardiotoxicity are not known.…”

“…5 Higher treatment-related mortality has also been reported in older patients using the CHOP (cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone) regimen, 6,7 and several recent studies have shown that anthracycline-related cardiotoxicity is more frequent in this group of patients. 8,9 These findings have often led to arbitrary dose reductions or use of less-aggressive therapy, which may reduce the possibility of cure.…”

“…These facts indicate that other age-related medical conditions such as cardiovascular disease and the development of other malignancies are important. Age above 50 years is a risk factor for developing anthracycline-mediated cardiotoxicity [18]. This fact could contribute to the higher rate of death without lymphoma in older patients.…”
