ABSTRACT
OPINION STATEMENT With the development of molecular biology and histology techniques, targeted therapy for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) has emerged, which is highly effective and has marginal side effects. Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) was the first driver gene discovered, whose three generations of therapeutic use have its characteristics and benefits in clinical practice. However, cardiovascular complications by EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) in preclinical studies have been increasingly reported, including heart failure, cardiomyopathy, and QT prolongation, among others. Cardiotoxicity of targeted drugs significantly affects the therapeutic effect of NSCLC and has become the second leading cause of death in NSCLC. The aim of the present review was to recognize the potential cardiotoxicity of third-generation targeted drugs in the treatment of NSCLC and their associated mechanisms to help clinicians identify and prevent it early in the treatment, minimize the cardiotoxicity of targeted drugs, and improve the therapeutic effect of patients.
