Heart Failure and Cancer: Mechanisms of Old and New Cardiotoxic Drugs in Cancer Patients

Although there have been many improvements in prognosis for patients with cancer, anticancer therapies are burdened by the risk of cardiovascular toxicity. Heart failure is one of the most dramatic clinical expressions of cardiotoxicity, and it may occur acutely or appear years after treatment. This...
