Trial Outcomes & Findings for PROactive Evaluation of Function to Avoid CardioToxicity (NCT NCT03862131)

NCT ID: NCT03862131

Last Updated: 2025-07-29

Results Overview

The area under the curve refers to the area under the curve of Receiver operating characteristic curves (ROC AUC) to evaluate the accuracy of MyoStrain® to detect cardiotoxicity compared to Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance (CMR) Imaging standard measurements. * Myocardial dysfunction was defined as the occurrence of either clinical or subclinical cardiotoxicity. * Clinical cardiotoxicity was defined as an absolute change in LVEF \> 10% from baseline to below 53% combined with heart failure symptoms or elevation in NT pro BNP to above 199 pg/mL. * In patients with LVEF \< 53% at baseline, clinical cardiotoxicity was defined by a symptomatic drop in LVEF \> 10% or a HF hospitalization. * Subclinical CTX was defined as an asymptomatic patient with a greater than 10% decrease in LVEF, worsening GLS more than 15% from baseline, or new elevation in NT pro BNP \>199 pg/mL.

This randomization will aid in an exploratory aim of testing the feasibility of MyoStrain® to guide cardioprotective therapy in the unblinded vs blinded arms.

n=43 Participants
* After consenting to the PROACT study, patients will undergo a baseline MRI to determine their risk stratification for the study. This baseline MyoStrain® MRI must demonstrate 2 or more segments measuring \>-10% or 9 or more segments \>-17% for entrance into the study as the Higher Risk Group. * After meeting eligibility criteria, patients will be further randomized to an unblinded arm (MyoStrain® measured and available to the treatment team) and a blinded arm (MyoStrain® measured but not available to the treatment team). This randomization will aid in an exploratory aim of testing the feasibility of MyoStrain® to guide cardioprotective therapy in the unblinded vs blinded arms. However, as all patients will have MyoStrain® measured, all patients (both treatment arms) will be combined for testing the primary outcome measure.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Through 36 months

Population: Events were excluded if there was an earlier event in the same patient closer in time to the MRI scan (6 events). Events were also excluded if they were \> 6 months from the last MRI scan (1 event).

Myocardial dysfunction is the occurrence of either clinical or subclinical cardiotoxicity. * Clinical cardiotoxicity was defined as an absolute change in LVEF \>10% from baseline to below 53% combined with heart failure symptoms or elevation in NT pro BNP to above 199 pg/mL * In patients with LVEF \<53% at baseline, clinical cardiotoxicity was defined by a symptomatic drop in LVEF \>10% or a HF hospitalization * Subclinical CTX was defined as an asymptomatic patient with a greater than 10% decrease in LVEF, worsening GLS more than 15% from baseline, or new elevation in NT pro BNP \>199 pg/mL

* After consenting to the PROACT study, patients will undergo a baseline MRI to determine their risk stratification for the study. This baseline MyoStrain® MRI must demonstrate 2 or more segments measuring \>-10% or 9 or more segments \>-17% for entrance into the study as the Higher Risk Group * The unblinded treatment arm will enhance patient management by augmenting standard of care with serial MyoStrain® monitoring of the impact of cancer therapy on myocardial function. * Higher Risk unblinded patients will continue to undergo MyoStrain® MRI testing, regardless of study arm, at 1 month (+1 week), 3 months (+ 1 week), 6 months (+1 week), 12 months (+ 30 days), 24 months (+30 days), and 36 months (+30 days) after the baseline visit. * In addition to the MyoStrain® testing, patients will also be asked to complete a brief patient satisfaction questionnaire at each PROACT time point.
