Purpose
While concerns regarding trastuzumab-related cardiac dysfunction (TRCD) in patients with breast cancer are increasing, there is a lack of evidence supporting the current recommendations for TRCD monitoring. We aimed to investigate the clinical predictors of TRCD in the adjuvant setting of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2–positive breast cancer patients.
Materials and Methods
From August 2003 to April 2016, consecutive 998 patients who were treated with adjuvant trastuzumab for breast cancer were retrospectively evaluated. TRCD was defined as a decrease ≥10% in left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), with a decline below the normal limit or symptomatic heart failure.
Results
Among 787 eligible patients who had complete data sets consisting of both baseline and follow-up assessment of left ventricular systolic function by echocardiography (mean age, 49.9±9.5 years), 58 (7.4%) developed TRCD. TRCD patients had lower baseline LVEF (63% [59–66] vs. 65% [61–68], p=0.016) and more frequently administered Adriamycin (98% vs. 89%, p=0.022) than those without TRCD. On follow-up echocardiography, a drop in LVEF ≥5% within the first 3 months was more frequent in TRCD patients (78.3% vs. 38.4%, p<0.001). Regardless of baseline LVEF and Adriamycin treatment, a drop in LVEF ≥5% within the first 3 months of trastuzumab administration was strongly associated with the development of TRCD (adjusted hazard ratio, 45.1[17.0–127.6], p<0.001).
Conclusion
The overall incidence of TRCD was 7.4% in Asian breast cancer patients treated with adjuvant trastuzumab. A decline in LVEF ≥5% within the first 3 months of trastuzumab initiation was strongly associated with TRCD development in patients with breast cancer.

PURPOSE
End-of-dose failure (EOD) is a clinically common observation and many cancer patients increase the frequency of opioid administration. Fentanyl matrix use is known to be effective in patients with chronic cancer pain. To measure the effectiveness of increase in a single dose of fentanyl matrix in patients whose pain was not controlled sufficiently, we perform this study.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
A multi-center, open-label, prospective, observational study was conducted in 30 hospitals in Korea, between August and December 2008.
RESULTS
A total of 452 patients were enrolled; 404 patients completed the study. The mean pain intensity decreased from 5.27 at the first visit to 3.37 at the end of the trial. There was a significant difference in pain intensity (p < 0.001) between the first and last visits. The percentage of pain intensity difference was 30.1%. The prevalence of EOD at the first visit was 73% from the 452 enrolled patients. After the use of fentanyl patch, EOD decreased from 73% to 56%. Pain intensity of patients experiencing EOD was 5.64 at the baseline compared to 4.27 in patients without EOD. On final visit, pain intensity in patients with and without EOD was 4.02 and 2.54, respectively. The observed adverse events were mainly nausea, asthenia, constipation and diarrhea.
CONCLUSION
This study demonstrated that increasing dose of fentanyl patch decreased pain intensity and decreased the rate of patients experiencing EOD. Thus, fentanyl patch may be an effective modality in cancer patients whose pain was previously not controlled sufficiently; the side effects were as could be expected with an opioid.
