简要总结
The goal of this observational study is to demonstrate the ability of using non-invasive Phosphorus (31P) Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (MRS) to monitor changes of in-vivo markers of mitochondrial function in skeletal and cardiac muscles in muscles in patients with cancer treated with anthracyclines and/or platinum-derivates. The main question it aims to answer is:
• Can 31P-MRS be used to monitor changes of in vivo markers of mitochondrial function in skeletal and cardiac muscles in patients with cancer undergoing treatment with anthracyclines and or platinum derivates?
To be able to answer this main question, participants will undergo 31P-MRS imaging of the calf muscles and of the heart 3 times during the study period.
详细描述
Rationale: Anthracyclines and platinum-based drugs are widely used chemotherapeutic agents, offering a favorable approach to treating solid and hematological cancers. However, treatment with these drugs can lead to severe toxicities, which last for many years. These chemotherapeutic agents are known to have detrimental effects on skeletal and cardiac muscles. Loss of skeletal muscle mass is associated with treatment modifications (i.e., dose delay/reduction/discontinuation), increased levels of fatigue, decreased quality of life (QoL) and shorter survival. Cardiomyopathy might lead to chronic heart failure in the long-term, which negatively affects prognosis as well. Preclinical studies investigating underlying mechanisms of these detrimental effects suggest that mitochondrial dysfunction plays a key role. However, human data is lacking due to the need of invasive repeated muscle biopsies. Phosphorus (31P) Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (MRS) is an innovative, non-invasive technique, which enables repeated measures of skeletal and cardiac muscle mitochondrial energy metabolism.
Hypothesis:
In this study we hypothesize that patients treated with anthracyclines and/or platinum-based agents will show decreased mitochondrial function in skeletal and cardiac muscle tissue following chemotherapy treatment.
Objective:
To demonstrate the ability of using non-invasive 31P-MRS to monitor changes of in vivo markers of mitochondrial function in skeletal and cardiac muscles (i.e., skeletal muscle PCr recovery rate constant and cardiac PCr/ATP ratio) in patients treated with anthracyclines and/or platinum-based agents. Furthermore, we will assess the feasibility of undergoing the study measurements for patients during intensive cancer treatment and explore the association between changes in in vivo measured mitochondrial function in skeletal and cardiac muscle tissue and changes in muscle mass, physical fitness, muscle strength, physical activity levels measured by Fitbit, chemotherapy completion rate and patient-reported outcomes, including physical activity, fatigue and quality of life.
