Intermediate and Long Term Vascular Effects of Cisplatin in Patients With Testicular Cancer

NCT03557164 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 37

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Chemotherapy drugs improve cancer survival but increase the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). VEGF inhibitors (VEGFI) cause severe hypertension, while cisplatin appears pro-thrombotic. Hence while cancer survival may improve, this is at the risk of potentially severe CVD and associated morbidity. Mechanisms underlying the cardiovascular toxicities of VEGFI and cisplatin are unknown, but effects on vascular function may be important.

The INTELLECT study will phenotype the endothelial effects of VEGFI and cisplatin using a variety of methods.
