ABSTRACT The evolution of cancer treatment and development of new classes of anticancer therapies have continued to revolutionize the field of oncology. New therapies including targeted agents, immunotherapies, and adoptive cell transfer have allowed for exciting survival benefit progress for patients. However, the novel nature of these therapies as well as the longer survival periods of patients receiving them has highlighted the various side effects of anticancer therapies. Cardiotoxicity has emerged as a major side effect of anticancer treatment and can present both acutely during treatment and chronically even years after treatment has been completed. This work compiles the cardiotoxic side effects of various chemotherapeutic and targeted anticancer therapies and their management. PMID:33948350 | PMC:PMC8085845 View on the web Inoreader.
