Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This study aims at evaluating the role of Atorvastatin in prevention of Anthracycline induced cardiotoxicity

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Drug: Atorvastatin 40 Mg Oral Tablet
  • Other: Placebo
Phase 2/Phase 3

Detailed Description

The study participants are female patients with breast cancer receiving Anthracycline based chemotherapy.

They will be divided into 2 groups , the first group will receive 40 mg oral atorvastatin through out the study , while the other group will receive a placebo.

Full echocardiographic study including 3D echocardiography will be done to all patients before starting their chemotherapy and after 6 months.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Incidence of cancer therapy related cardiac dysfunction among the two groups [Six months]

    cancer therapy related cardiac dysfunction defined as drop in ejection fraction more than 10% and to a value below 53% assessed by 3D echocardiography

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Changes in left ventricular ejection fraction assessed by 3D echocardiography among the two groups [Six months]

  2. Changes in left ventricular volumes assessed by 3D echocardiography among the two groups [Six months]

  3. Changes in left ventricular diastolic function among the two groups [Six months]
