Brief Summary:
Brief Summary Anthracyclines (e.g., doxorubicin) are effective anticancer agents but can cause dose-dependent, often irreversible cardiotoxicity via oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, and cardiomyocyte apoptosis.Trastuzumab is also associated with left-ventricular dysfunction, typically reversible.The original protocol planned cohorts for both drug classes; however, no trastuzumab patients were enrolled due to feasibility, and the final study focused exclusively on anthracycline-treated…
