Description
Summary:Although cancer-therapy-related cardiac dysfunction (CTRCD) is a critical issue in clinical practice, there is a glaring lack of evidence regarding cardiotoxicity management. To determine an effective and suitable dosage of treatment using angiotensin receptor-neprilysin inhibitors (ARNI) with sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i), we adopted a clinically relevant rodent model with doxorubicin, which would mimic cardiac dysfunction in CTRCD patients. After the oral administration of drugs (vehicle, SGLT2i, ARNI, Low-ARNI/SGLT2i, ARNI/SGLT2i), several physiologic parameters, including hemodynamic change, cardiac function, and histopathology, were evaluated. Bulk RNA-sequencing was performed to obtain insights into the molecular basis of a mouse heart response to Low-ARNI/SGLT2i treatment. For the first time, we report that the addition of low-dose ARNI with SGLT2i resulted in greater benefits than ARNI, SGLT2i alone or ARNI/SGLT2i combination in survival rate, cardiac function, hemodynamic change, and kidney function against doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity through peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor signaling pathway. Low-dose ARNI with SGLT2i combination treatment would be practically beneficial for improving cardiac functions against doxorubicin-induced heart failure with minimal adverse effects. Our findings suggest the Low-ARNI/SGLT2i combination as a feasible novel strategy in managing CTRCD patients.
