RESUMEN
As the intensive anti-tumour therapy and combination of multiple anti-tumour drugs, cardiotoxicity events caused by anti-tumour drugs have also increased significantly, and the incidence of cardiotoxicity also increased with survival time. Different types of anti-tumour drugs could cause all kinds of cardiotoxicity which increase the difficulties in treatment and even live threatening. In this review, we concentrated in the targeted anti-tumour drugs such as human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER2) inhibitors, tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), and proteasome inhibitors (Pls). The molecular mechanism of how these drugs induce cardiotoxicity is introduced which includes several signal pathways. These drugs induced cardiotoxicity involved heart failure, hypertension, atherosis and thrombosis, QT interval prolongation, and myocarditis. Some of the cardiotoxicity could be moderate and reversible but others could have happened severely.The aim of this review is to summarise the targeted anti-tumour drugs induced cardiotoxicity and treatment strategies.
