Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Primary outcomes: Subclinical or smoldering cardiac toxicity, defined as a composite of BNP elevation up to 200 pg/mL, positive troponin T, elevated CK-MB, new-onset morphological electrocardiogram abnormalities, or a reduction in the left ventricular ejection fraction of >10% compared to baseline.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary outcomes: (1) clinically apparent acute myocarditis; (2) acute heart failure, cardiogenic shock of unknown etiology, or symptomatic deterioration in at least one New York Heart Association functional class; (3) lethal arrhythmia, including advanced or complete AV block, ventricular tachycardia, or fibrillation; (4) cardiac death, new-onset acute coronary syndromes, any coronary revascularization procedure; (5) other immune-related adverse events, including dermatological, ophthalmological, neurological, hematological, gastrointestinal, endocrine, genitourinary, respiratory, and musculoskeletal adverse events; and (6) all-cause death.
