简要总结
The goal of this clinical research study is to learn whether different ways of viewing echocardiogram pictures along with blood tests can help to see heart-related side effects of chemotherapy and trastuzumab earlier than the usual tests.
详细描述
Echocardiogram:
Because of the heart-related side effects of chemotherapy and trastuzumab, your regular doctor will monitor your heart's function as part of your routine care. You will have echocardiograms performed before you begin treatment, and then every 3 months. An echocardiogram uses sound waves to check your heart's health.
If you decide to take part in this study, researchers will take several additional pictures of your heart during each of your regularly scheduled echocardiograms. The additional pictures will make the procedure take about 5-10 minutes longer than the regular echocardiogram. These pictures will be viewed in a different way than the standard echocardiogram pictures. Researchers hope viewing the pictures this way can help researchers to find heart problems earlier than the usual tests.
Blood Tests:
Blood (about 4 teaspoon each time) will be drawn during the routine blood draw that occurs closest to the regularly scheduled echocardiograms.
