Study Details

Brief summary:

Anthracycline chemotherapies (e.g. doxorubicin, daunorubicin) are commonly given to treat pediatric cancer, and carry a risk of cardiotoxicity. Over the long term, children who receive these therapies have an increased risk of heart failure and early cardiovascular death. However, current strategies for identifying patients who are at risk prior to the development of significant changes in heart function are limited. This study will focus on imaging markers of cardiac injury and dysfunction with the goal of developing improved diagnostic tests and treatment strategies.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

Sex: All

Age: 13 - 39

Healthy Volunteers: Not accepted

Inclusion Criteria:

  • English and Spanish speaking male and female subjects, ages 13-39 years old
  • Diagnosis of cancer at age <22 years
  • Previously treated with anthracyline therapy for cancer, with diagnosis at least two years prior.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patients who have a contraindication to cardiac MRI, including the presence of non-MRI compatible metallic implants.
  • Medical, psychiatric, and/or social disorder that would prevent successful completion of planned study testing or would preclude the subject from undergoing the cardiac MRI without anesthesia.
  • Patients with a history of congenital heart disease (more significant than a history of patent foramen ovale or patent ductus arteriosus).
  • Pregnancy (at the time of enrollment).

Interventions and Outcome Measures

Arms

All Study Participants

This is an observational study where all study participants are within a single group.

Participants will have testing performed at baseline and again at follow-up >= 3 years after the initial assessment.

Interventions

Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)

Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging will be performed to evaluate cardiac remodeling, function, and tissue characteristics

Accelerometer physical activity monitoring

Measurement of physical activity using hip-worn accelerometer.

Primary outcome measure

  • Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) [ Time Frame: 3 - 5 years ]
