Clinical Trial Summary

To learn if monitoring blood levels of heart injury (troponin levels) in cancer participants treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors will lead to decreased heart-related side effects.


Clinical Trial Description

Primary Objectives: - Myocarditis CTCAE version 5.0 grade ≥ 3 - Ventricular tachycardia (≥ 30 seconds) - Advanced atrioventricular block - Incident heart failure event - Cardiovascular mortality - Non-fatal sudden cardiac arrest - Acute coronary syndrome - Pericarditis - Pericardial tamponade Secondary Objectives: - Time from symptom onset to diagnosis of major adverse cardiovascular events - Time from symptom onset to diagnosis of myocarditis - Initial hospitalization duration for the adverse cardiovascular event from primary endpoint - Peak biomarker levels including troponin T, troponin I, creatine kinase, and creatine kinase myocardial band - Percentage of patients with negative workup for myocarditis - Percentage of patients requiring major cardiac testing including echocardiograms, cardiac magnetic resonance imaging, and/or invasive heart catheterization - Duration of interruption and/or discontinuation of immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy - Cancer progression free survival - Time to next cancer therapy ;
