Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: To assess the therapeutic activity of early treatment with beta-blockers and ACE-inhibitors in patients experiencing mild cardiotoxicity during treatment with anthracycline and/or trastuzumab for operable breast cancer;Primary end point(s): To assess the therapeutic activity of early treatment with beta-blockers and ACE-inhibitors in patients experiencing mild cardiotoxicity during treatment with anthracycline and/or trastuzumab for operable breast cancer.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 60 months;Secondary Objective: To assess the predictive role of cardiovascular risk factors on the development of Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction (LVEF) dysfunctions during the adjuvant and/or neoadjuvant treatment with anthracyclines and/or trastuzumab To study the correlation between the pre-treatment value of BNP (Brain Natriuretic Peptide)or NT-proBNP (N-Terminal pro b-type Natriuretic Peptide) and Troponin I and the following modifications in relation to the outcomes of interest To study the correlation between ultrasonographic morpho-functional parameters and the outcomes of interest

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): To assess the predictive role of cardiovascular risk factors on the development of Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction (LVEF) dysfunctions during the adjuvant and/or neoadjuvant treatment with anthracyclines and/or trastuzumab To study the correlation between the pre-treatment value of BNP (Brain Natriuretic Peptide)or NT-proBNP (N-Terminal pro b-type Natriuretic Peptide) and Troponin I and the following modifications in relation to the outcomes of interest To study the correlation between ultrasonographic morpho-functional parameters and the outcomes of interest;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 60 months
